The first next gen Starship booster, Booster 18, will have an integral hot staging interstage. That means that the interstage will not be jettisoned, and will return with the booster upon landing.

@judgedread Before AI it was the great catastrophes and extinction events that our planet periodically goes through. Before mammals were the dinosaurs. Before the dinosaurs the therapsids. And so on. Global glaciations and (real) global warming in repeated cycles.

Nothing says humans are the last. Almost surely we are not.

We could just be a temporary side branch, an experiment, before He abandons us and tries something else again.

Perhaps he keeps our souls and that is all that will endure from the very brief time of our species' existence.

None of that seems unreasonable to me. But it's greatly upset some Christians I've known when I tell them my views. Whatever.

Booster 18 will be the first new gen Starship booster with Raptor 3 engines. Raptor 3 has external regenerative cooling on its outside, as well as the usual internal regen cooling. This eliminates the need for most of the heat shield plating in the aft end of the booster.

The 19th Century US Congress of Davey Crockett is vastly superior to the CCP and the US Congress of 2025.

The jews captured television from its White inventor Farnsworth. They successfully made use of its great power.

The jews captured Boeing, Lockheed, Northrup Grumman, Raytheon and others. Then these old aerospace corporations stopped innovating, and they couldn't even bring the 2 stranded astronauts home from the ISS, even though space capsules are a solved problem.

The Cost-Plus Aerospace contract is a visible sign of the jews' weakness when it comes to high risk engineering 🚀

Fingers crossed, to see if the V2 Ship 37 can do what V1 Ship 31 did. Survive Mach 25 re-entry without tumbling, and soft landing in the Indian Ocean.

I do not accept peer review or wikipedia as reliable sources. That's why I block anyone who tries to debate me with 'source? source?'

My impeccable intuition is my source.
