The entire crew isn’t billionaires.

So you’re wishing harm on innocents who aren’t deserving of harm

Why do you wish harm on people?

Well they’ll be moving into a mine field as the majority of users here I’m seeing are younger than most FErs & age does appear to play a part in it.

I’ve been keeping an eye on the topic and it really doesn’t exist on BlueSky right now though I wouldn’t be surprised if they migrated over here as *that other place* sinks itself into oblivion.

Honestly that’s the truth- it’s what drove me away until now.

I didn’t dislike the app- it’s built just fine but when I can’t find anyone I know to follow and even major organizations like NASA haven’t migrated here yet- there’s little to read or interact with.

Now there’s people & things to do.

I believe the J2X has more power but I may be wrong.

To be fair I don’t think many people do. Well, most of the time anyway.

To be fair I’m still firmly in the camp that 1B is underpowered & inefficient.

Block 1 is honestly such a beast. Yes it’s expensive but it has uses.

I still point to my Orange Paper & the J2X upper stage design.

Then comanifested cargo is even better given so much more launch mass.

It’s a vital part, yes. For 2 decades? Eh. I wouldn’t say that.

I still see SLS as the foundation to let starship prove itself in deep space & help foster a cislunar economy that’ll let NASA leave & make a new commercial crew program- but for Gateway & the moon.

I genuinely wonder if he’s been wanting to kill it this whole time but keeps failing to.

Maybe he wants to build a whole new app from its ashes.

But his aggressively bad handling of what was an already perfectly fine working platform is mind boggling.

Holy crap this is a face I haven’t seen in a while. So this is where you went.

I was wondering about what to call Blue Sky Twitter yesterday & came to the same conclusion- BlueSpace

I’d imagine roughly the same time in 2026. It gives lots of extra margins. Maybe slightly less since from what I’ve heard, they’re aiming for Orion to just take a softer re-entry. Solved that issue. EGS just needs more time.

To be fair I never had high hopes for September to begin with.

It’s quite literally peak hurricane season. So at best we’d be looking at late October, early November before this news.
