Seems I read awhile back that the shuttle rockets were most powerful because the shuttle was as big as a semi, and when it launched, it took off quickly. The Apollo missions, we were glued to the screen hollering “go-go-go”. Wrong again. Lol The Saturn V set a high bar for ambitious rocketeers, but Elon Musk's SpaceX has taken up the challenge. ... Saturn V vs SpaceX Starship: Side-By-Side Comparison. SpaceX Starship Saturn V Height 394 feet 363 feet Diameter 30 feet 33 feet Dry Weight 330 tons 207 tons Payload 110 to 165 tons 48 to 118 tons Copy/paste is working right. This is comparing the Spacex rocket to the Saturn V And it was by far the most ambitious. The Super Heavy rocket's 33 engines are capable of generating between 16 million and 17 million pounds of thrust. That's twice as powerful as the Saturn V rocketthat sent Apollo astronauts to the moon with 7.6 million pounds of thrust.

I do worry about battery disposal, but that was discussed on another thread. I found it hard to believe that these rocket engines are more powerful than the shuttle rockets and boosters, but I looked it up and they are indeed.

I actually like Musk. He knows fossil fuels are a need, not a luxury. I don’t have anything against electric cars other than they aren’t feasible. I have no problem with them being marketed as long as they aren’t forced with attempts to kill the oil industry. I saw this as almost a conflict of interest and thought my comment to be humorous.

I think I could make the transition for him/her. lol

Why doesn’t Musk invent an electric motor to launch his space vehicles? That appeared to be very polluting. Maybe because they don’t produce thrust?

I read that the dismissal is temporary pending further investigation.

This must mean that all sheriffs are this way. Too many people make judgements on bad apple evidence. Hey, but it sells the internet.

OMG….

Garcia with an excellent outing. I think he struck out 6 in a row, ended up with 9 total Ks, gave up 2 hits and 0 runs over 7 innings. Astros win 8-1.

Here’s what is missing in these kid’s lives. 5 Gallon Bucket will understand.

Your garbage post is repetitious. You and several others come on this board only to feed your egos and be condescending. Most people who are comfortable with who they are, don’t require an ego fix, especially the ones who have to toot their own horn because no one else will. For us to be simpletons, well, you tend to play to your opponent’s level. Lmao

That wasn’t what I was referring to, but ok. Does this make you happy that Dominion won?

Some people act as though they won something.

It’s called the equalizer. Teenagers can kill you just as dead as a 30 year old.

12 year olds tearing up a city. You know what would have happened to me if I acted that way when I was 12? My dad didn’t beat me, but it would have been a while before I could sit down.

Accused sexual assault and garbage mouth compare?

Astros bat around in the 1st. 7-0 Stros

Fify

Of course it’s all about winning series, and my Stros failed to do that. In fact, we’ve only won one series, yet still just 2.5 games back. Lots of baseball left.

Still way too early to predict anything. Need Altuve and Brantley for some run generation.

Thanks. Everyone around me was asking what was that all about. We were all clueless. They don’t post it on stadium the big screen. Didn’t German have a perfect game going?

Anyone watching the game on tv…….can you tell me why Bochy came out and went to home plate ump? It didn’t change the outcome of the game. Just wanted to know if the announcers explained it at all. My first reaction was that a balk was called but then no runners advanced so it left me hanging.
