Agreed. But you don’t have to go that far to make rain and snow transparent. And radar might not be a bad idea to have on self driving cars, as long as it’s not the only thing.

LiDAR can be done with different wavelengths. It should be possible to make one that can see through rain and snow.

His disdain for NASA’s caution is obvious.

What a dumbass. If we send people in the quickest possible way (or any way at all, really) and they all die in the attempt, that will set the whole project back decades.

The answer to the radiation problem is better shielding, not a fundamentally unsafe mission.

btw it is not the nuclear propulsion that I’m calling unsafe. It is the idea that we could do without redundancy. That’s just a monumentally stupid idea.

I could be mistaken on this: don’t they get just one try?

Exactly. In other words, they have not been “allowed to infest” the fediverse.

I have not noticed any threads content in Lemmy.
