Chinese moon landing by 2018 brother
>>52489381
What would yue do?
>>52488686
It's amazing how hard this problem still is. I'm so excited whenever we catch a whiff of progress, no matter who it comes from.
Had no idea we'd done a launch lads
>>52489099

Grats USA. Now you only need to unfuck your higher education, society, media, politics, etc.

you sure about that chinaboo
>>52489613
You might hate America but no one else is even close in this regard
What did we do?
>>52489629
If we do will we end up just like you?
>>52489629
Help us Jan
Be the light that we feel our way by
>>52489438
I'm simply glad to see that they aren't pained with "mandatory diversity quotas"
>>52489613
China has literally never sent anything beyond the Moon.
>>52489629
Dragging people down instead of focusing on improving yourself is why your country is a middle income shithole. This is a real slavshit mentality.
>>52489629
Why in God's name would we want to unfuck our politics? It was purposely designed to be an ineffectual clusterfuck and we like it that way thank you very much.
The scariest thing in the world is a government that's actually able to accomplish things.

There is a precisely 0% chance of that happening.

Another rover maybe. Something private companies will do too in 2017 and 2018 through Lunar X.
>>52489443
yeah, and the J-31 is a Raptor killer
Can someone please tell me what the fuck happened?
It better involve Ayy Lmaos or bombing Russians and sand people from orbit.
>>52489688
However some TV station sent their black journalist :^)
>>52489781
Everything went perfectly is what happened
Hold on to that pride, anon
You'll be needing it soon

SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket launched 11 satellites into orbit and then came back and landed vertically back on the pad.
Seriously, watch the landing. It's insane. I'm sure there's youtube but I saw it here: http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/nation-now/2015/12/21/spacex-launches-falcon-9-rocket-lands-back-land/77726386/
Absolute madness.
>>52489824

The future is now.
It's 2015 after all.
>>52489099
Sub-orbital
Doesn't count.
>>52490031
It is 2015 isn't it?
Does that mean we can start sending Syrians into space?
the rest of the world might as well give up
europe is a waste of space, just give it to america

Not until Lexus builds a skatepark where I can use a real hoverboard

Fuck off to Japanistan you un-American weebshit.
>>52490081
nah they'll just copy the tech and routinize it into their programs, act as if being the pioneers is nothing special
How much money is saved this way? By reusing rockets. are there any estimates
>>52490209
Probably more than your country's GDP desu.
>>52490209
Seriously though 60-90 million dollars a pop apparently.
>>52490209
Space X (and others) dropped the cost from 200 million to about 35 million. Reusable estimates bring it down to about 10-12 million a launch.
This essentially makes putting satellites and other things into orbit a lot cheaper.
>>52489099
You are a fucking idiot if you think Blue Origin's suborbital flight is anywhere close to SpaceX. Blue Origin couldn't put a rocket in orbit if it fucking tried. Their "rocket" isn't worth shit.
>>52490394
Does it really matter? Both are American.
>>52490069
I MEAN
>>52490489
Racist.
>>52489099
>Beat them to it
It was sub-orbital (It didn't break orbit like pic related) and they were Americans anyway. America is still the best country on the planet anyway.

>>52490536
COME ON
>>52490423
It does. Jeff Bezos is acting like tough shit right now with this "Welcome to the club" shit. Like, seriously, SpaceX is so above you, just sit back and dream.
>>52490757
No one cares about your nerd fights. All that matters is if America won.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgaWHnY2Ph8
>mfw Americans clap when we make history
>>52490815
It just bothers a lot of people in the space industry when you take credit for something you didn't even do. It's not cool. I lost all respect for Bezos and BO tonight. Even apart from that, what BO did does not count as landing the rocket. It was a vertical sub-orbital flight that only barely got to space. SpaceX is the first to land the first stage of an orbital rocket back at launch pad. What they did blew BO out of the water.
>>52490929
Still don't care nerd

Also: FUCK YOU Japmoot for disabling USA posting you communist slant eted piece of fucking shit. I hope a Korean rapes your mother. Hiroshima best day of my life.

But they completely exceed you
>>52494092
nice bait
World! Are you guys even trying?!
>>52494270
No. It's called specialization. Your nation is best doing this shit, so we benevolently allow you to continue your efforts on behalf of our whole species.
Just don't fuck up things with Ayy Lmaos when you reach them.

- this nigga is right, so I dinsay nuffin.
>>52494687
You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about when it comes to US universities because you have extremely limited exposure to them
Multiple friends of mine here at my university are being recruited by SpaceX, Intel, etc. They were born and raised in the United States.
In any event, you pretty much can't even work at SpaceX without being a US citizen because so much of their work is under security clearances
>>52494508
>benevolently allow
>allow
Good one.
>>52494743
Yup. You're 100% right, But, well, I'd rather to work as bring-in-bring-out for POLSA than train myself and naturalize in your country to become a specialist in one of your companies.
>>52494914
Well no one's asking you to, there are plenty of people here qualified and plenty of foreigners who want in
>>52494975
I know. Well, either way nobody would want to employ me, I'm just an ordinary enthusiast from beyond the puddle.
Good job anyway, congratz.
>>52495036
Well uh take care man, hope for the best for you and your country
A Polish or Russian space empire would be pretty badass.
No one gives a shit. Maybe when NASA builds a rocket I'll care.
>>52489438
B-but according to The Martian every other person in a space program is a person of color.

>>52499489
No, owned by a naturalized Saffa who did his university here and helped found Paypal
>>52499512
fucc, what's gonna happen if USA gets a monopoly on space? We are all fuckd.
>>52499489
Also most of the employees are American citizens due to security clearance requirements
Don't think the company really has a single thing to do with Europe
>>52499567
That fat mining cunt you bros have should start a private space company to drive up competition.
>>52499750
There's some asteroid mining company that's being worked on
