Trump advisers' space plan: To moon, Mars and beyond

I thought we were starting a game of trading cliches.

In order to start that again you will have to stop the previous round where you speak in cliches.

Oh, have we just moved on to random sentences? I'm game.

"I'm so sorry, but when a white boy disrespects you, you punch him in the fucking face."

"I'm so sorry, but when a white boy disrespects you, you punch him in the fucking face."

Race violence

I wonder if she'll be brought up on inciting racial hatred though I'm not sure if her statement was made in UK, just the punch she threw.

Interesting game.

"Faux black people make pathetic bullies."

I think she's actually black.

"He couldn't become a distant memory soon enough to suit her."

had to look that story up. is Abigail a racist term?

The deposits are worth trillions of dollars. It's absolutely worth it.

As soon as you pull just one gold asteroid down from space, it's going to become too abundant to still be worth trillions.

If they bring the asteroid down from space, the mass destruction that would cause might keep the value somewhat stable.   

But even if we were to measure the value of an asteroid in the trillions...the cost of transport/retrieval of the mining infrastructure needed to operate in deep space, and return the ore to Earth in a safe manner, is way too prohibitive to be cost effective for quite some time.

Yes, and that was the information Garbon was trying to get.

Well she didn't say he was being racist.

Well, in truth, I was largely asking in a rhetorical manner, but yeah.

Man, this system really is  tiny.

While watching this I realized the factor that will make or break the habitability of these worlds is the density of the worlds. Of the three in the habitable zone, only the third is dense enough to form a magnetosphere to protect it from the star's flares. It's far enough from the star, that it's atmosphere will have to be quite thick to be warm enough, but it's a possibility.


EDIT: Actually, I just thought a way around this. These planets are getting pulled on by the gravity of their neighbors in similar ways to the Galilean moons. Hopefully it's enough for their interiors to heat up enough that they have a molten iron core, and not so hot that they're a volcanic hellscape like Io.

Send katmai to them. They will be dense enough.

Only grumbler will live to see our space colonies.
