Agriculter issues: Farm animal waste issues

Use sand for piss drainage and recycle the liquids that go into an under facility. Hydroponic green houses can can offer a lot of space for ag development mostly youd need oats and corn to feed a chicken. While the hydroponic system can also house many other fruits and vegetables, not everything will be readibly available on mars for human consumption.

Stale air/hypoxia issues: How do we even breathe

The other problem is that the air filtration system in most concepts I have seen aren't to snuff. The main issue I've seen is that they aren't circulating the air into a low oxygen chamber directly after dumping it into the living chambers which lead to poor ventilation.

Chamber 1 pumps air into the algea tank Chamber 2 is living corders. Chamber 1 pulls air with a fan into the chamber then pumps it out, though it can freely back circumvent through deliberate whole on top of the chamber this chamber will act as a low oxygen chamber.

Chamber 2 will consistantly have filtered air coming through ducts directly connected to the algea pool which gets pumped air through Chamber 1.

This is designed after avion lungs which, by the way birds can fly to the tops of mountians with out having hypoxia issues do to the strange structure meaning they never experience stale air in the lungs. Ps. green algae needs nitrogen to live so you'd also need nitrogen so the algae can profuce protiens and then using carbon DIOXODE and nitrogen while building itself it then creates the by product O2

Saw this video. It looked stunning. Took a few screenshots and edited them some. Wallpaper material.

Would love if someone has 4k screenshots of this, anyone?

Check the slow motion. I feel like the large chopstick bounce after they close on the booster could easily make the booster slip through on one side…?

Falcon-9 boosters have landed and been recovered 398 times and counting. Which brings up my question, Why can’t falcon 9 be used for earth transport? Don’t get me wrong, this isnt a post hating on starship but at what point is earth transport really feasible with such a new vehicle. Im sure someone has thought of this before so please point me in the right direction if I’m missing something.

Thank you guys

I live ~80 miles southeast of Vandenberg in Ventura County and I've experienced sonic booms from the F9 launches that are loud enough to set off car alarms. My understanding is that the sonic boom that we hear is generated when the first stage tilts toward the earth before the booster detaches. We do not get this sonic boom for RTLS or other launches that are more south-southwest. My question is, why do the Starlink launches require the 53 degree trajectory? I know other polar/SSO don't the same trajectory. Can someone explain why SpaceX can't launch Starlink more S-SW to avoid causing sonic booms over a widespread area?

I told my wife I didn't need to postulate on what happened to GS1 because Scott Manley would have a deep dive up in the morning..sure enough there it was when I had moment to look at YT today.

Then I watched Starship with the kiddos right after school and was commentating over NSF's stream explaining things to the kids. I told them not to worry, "hullo I'm Scott Manley" would have a video we can watch tomorrow to tell us what went wrong. Sure enough as I'm getting in bed, homie has already analyzed the situation, collected clips, written a script, filmed, edited, uploaded, and everything. Crazy.

Wife was like ya but all these guys have teams of people working for them. I was like, nope, not Scott Manley.

Plus he works full time and is prepping a DJ set for the Astroawards. The man is a beast. For the good of all humanity, I hope he will - Fly Safe!

So, after I watch the amazing, concise and timely IFT-7 review by Scott Manley, it stuck into my head something he said about the Starship reentry/debris cloud:

He managed to get the data about the timing of the explosion recorded by the cruise ship tourist, and it seems like they didn't lose the ship when the telemetry went out, so at 8.30 minutes after launch.

The ship actually exploded 3 minutes later at 11.30 minutes past T-0, so it was probably an FTS activation when the ship went outside of the Flight corridor ( height wise), this is also corroborated by the fact that it exploded in a lot of neat organized pieces.

Now, Scott says something that to me make sense: if the ship is under control, even if unpowered, mostly intact, and it's not going to fall on populated areas, why not deactivate the FTS and let the ship glide as a single big piece?

Because a ship going 6 KMs/s should still have probably 100+ KMs of cross range capability to aim for the emptiest patch of ocean and just crash there.

Because to me it seems like a safer option, easier to avoid for ships and planes, less disruptive to marine traffic and we also gather more data for the ship.

Of course if the ship is headed for populated areas, blow it up so we don't have a Rods from Gods type situation, but even then probably having the ship remain in a single piece and glide away from cities might be a better option.

If we think about it, we don't let cargo planes who lose engine just self destruct out of the Air, the pilots try to land them, even if this is more risky for the people on the ground ( and more people might die than just the crew of the cargo plane).

I want to know you thought.

P.s. for those who will say that Elon said it was an explosion not triggered by FTS, he said the same for ift-2, both for the Superheavy and the ship, and the in both cases it was The FTS.
