If you're anti-technology, you're not preparing for war.

You're just preparing to be killed by a superior foe.

🔮 Preview :

• Flight Test 11 🚀 could occur in the October time frame
• 12 likely will be the first flight of the V3 #Starship in early 2026
• 13 and 14 probably the first orbital flight, complete with operational deployment of #Starlink satellites 🛰️
• 15 to 20 #SpaceX is likely to launch two Starships to conduct an in-orbit refueling ⛽ test no earlier than the second half of 2026

#European 🇪🇺 and #Japanese 🇯🇵 #SpaceAgencies opted for traditional, expendable 🗑️ rockets instead of pushing toward reuse ♻️.

As a result, both of these competitors for commercial #satellite launches are now about a decade behind #SpaceX in terms of launch technology. If the ambitious #Starship rocket is successful, that gap could widen further https://arstechnica.com/space/2025/08/with-recent-falcon-9-milestones-spacex-vindicates-its-dumb-approach-to-reuse

The #price of heavy launches to #LEO has fallen from $65,000 💰 per kilogram to $1,500 💵 per kilogram—more than a 95 percent decrease 📉. A significant factor in the capacity equation is the potential capabilities of #Starship 🚀 https://www.mckinsey.com/industries/aerospace-and-defense/our-insights/space-launch-are-we-heading-for-oversupply-or-a-shortfall

“It won’t be unarmed luddites imposing it [banning AI and new weapons] but other great powers.”

What “great power” is going to stop China’s military development in AI and orbital weapons?

(You still haven’t cursed vishnu 🤔)

Chinese Space Station:

A video on life in the Tiangong space station (~15 minutes):

Each crew member has their own private sleep station with a window, something that the ISS crew do not have.
Tiangong is new, so it has more modern electronics and wifi, with equipment and experiments behind clean panels. This prevents crew from accidentally bumping into equipment and wiring.

@VaxxSabbath Cyborgs are both Elon and Eliezer's solution to the alignment problem. As befits the Aryan vs. jew appoach, Elon is building neural interfaces and Eliezer is bitching and moaning.

@NoDoxGregBrady I called it years ago.

Elon's SpaceX Starship:

Gigabay and Starfactory construction has begun at Robert's Road, Florida Space Coast.

Cargo Dragon C211, equipped with a boost module in the trunk, performs a re-boost for the ISS. Adding 1.62 m/s of delta-v to the ISS. The boost module can provide up to 9 m/s of delta-v to the ISS. It uses similar bipropellant hypergolic propellants and Draco thrusters as the main Dragon service section does.
