The first case of intentional littering in space... not sure that is really the level of 'responsible behavior' we should be promoting to the international space community.

How long will it take at 400km to deorbit? I assume it’s going 5-10km/h slower than the station.

Without stating an exact time, it burns up pretty quick in the atmosphere. It has a short shelf life in orbit.

Is there no risk of impacting a satellite? Wasn't that a very strange maneuver?

How much of a change in deltaV is done by a throw? 1-2m/s?

Funny hologram from NASA. Computer graphics have already developed quite well. In a vacuum, astronauts in their paper spacesuits would instantly explode. At what height is this space station allegedly located?

The spacecraft will now execute a series of departure burns to move away from the International Space Station. Dragon will reenter the Earth's atmosphere and splash down in ~22.5 hours off the coast of California

"The only way to reach 1,000 terawatts of AI power is with a mass driver on the Moon. Most of the hardware would need to be produced locally on the Moon, and because it has no atmosphere and only one-sixth of Earth's gravity, AI satellites could be launched into deep space using an electromagnetic mass driver instead of rockets." — Elon Musk

With just a quick look into some basic physics and logistics of putting a data center in space, the idea becomes comical. First, you have to put massive amounts of hardware, cooling systems, and power into space. Then you have to completely reengineer the data center for space. Then you have to think about maintenance. Oh, and cooling these things down in a vacuum is no easy task. Full Video: #datacenter #space

Carl Sagan explained in his 1977 Christmas Lectures that Earth's initial hydrogen-rich atmosphere was lost to space because Earth's gravity was too weak to hold onto the light hydrogen atoms, which could easily achieve escape velocity. This allowed the atmosphere to evolve into the second, more stable composition (rich in volcanic gases like CO2, methane, etc.) before oxygen became dominant.

There is no greater indication that NASA has fabricated every space mission since its inception than the preposterous notion of placing an individual in a glorified snowboarding suit into the supposed Torr 10^-10 vacuum of space. It requires lead walls 11 feet thick to prevent a vacuum 10,000 times weaker than the aforementioned space vacuum from collapsing in on itself. (Torr 10^-6) NASA refuses to put an astronaut in a spacesuit in a vacuum here on earth to prove it’s possible because they know it’s impossible.

🇮🇱🇾🇪🚨‼️ INTERESTING: “Israel was the first in history to shoot down a rocket in space. The day before, the Houthis launched a ballistic missile from Yemen towards the city of Eilat. The Arrow missile defense system was able to intercept it outside the Earth's atmosphere. In fact, this is the first battle in space in history.” -> That’s a quote. So it’s propaganda…

🤣 if these people are really going into the super vacuum of space in these suits then prove it. Take a living astronaut in his suit and put him in a vacuum chamber and turn it all the way up. Put your money where your mouth is globetards.

Space walk glove - beautiful engineering. Protects us from the deadly vacuum of space and the wild temperature swings, while letting us feel what we're grabbing. In training I could pick up a dime off the pool floor. They twist and lock into place at the end of the spacesuit sleeves.
