Maybe Star Citizen can beat it now, it started in 2010 and is still in development.

America deserves Trump at this point.
The rest of the world doesn’t, he’ll mess things up far beyond the US. Encouraging Russia/North Korea, weakening NATO, all sorts of trade wars, there’s so much he could throw a wrench in.
We can vote someone better in 4 years, but he’s so so much better than trump.
Fun project! But replacing gas with hydrogen seems really tricky. Hydrogen is much harder to transport without leaks because it’s such a tiny molecule. Electric seems better than trying to still burn hydrogen.
Looks like the biggest one outside China is Inda’s Bhadla Solar Park at 2.2GW.
China’s biggest before this looks to be Gonghe Talatan Solar Park according to Wikipedia at 10.4GW, but I couldn’t find much info on it.
But this is huge either way! Glad they’re investing so much into renewables and hopefully mostly skipping coal and oil all together.

Or at least not decommissioning old ones. A dollar invested into new solar or wind goes further than new nuclear right now, but we’ll see if it tips more towards nuclear once the grid is a higher percentage intermittent and needs a lot more energy storage with it.
Modular nuclear reactors seem really cool though for replacing large long term generators like at construction or excavation sites.
But you can measure how much of the power of a grid is generated with fossil fuels at a particular place and time. For example, if they have more data centers where energy is cheap like from hydro or geothermal, then the carbon footprint will be less than if they were just using average power statistics.
Or don’t, I’ll just sleep though it.
I wonder if this is taking into account the energy mix of the particular data centers, or just using the average energy mix?
Forgiveness in exchange for favors. All sides play the leverage game.
Well there are a lot of these ships flying around the world all the time, and very seldom does anything like this happen. I just don’t want people thinking that rockets aren’t safe.
Just last week they crashed a hypergolic first stage crashing on/near a village. https://edition.cnn.com/2024/06/24/china/china-rocket-debris-falls-over-village-intl-hnk/index.html
Are they counting children? 2.6B people are under the age of 20. How are they counting money for those?
I agree, still not good, but a very useless metric.
Part of the reason for not cooperating was China dropping boosters on populated areas I think.
Edit: here’s a video of a hypergolic first stage crashing on/near a village a week ago. https://edition.cnn.com/2024/06/24/china/china-rocket-debris-falls-over-village-intl-hnk/index.html
About 13M households in the US have negative net worth, so would I have more wealth than 13M US households put together? Without knowing how this figure is calculated, this seems like a meaningless metric. Though the wealth gap is definitely a problem by any metric, I don’t think this metric is very helpful.
I wonder how many times this needs to be reposted and downscaled to no longer be true. It looks like this is already not the original resolution of the picture.
!mcmansionhell@sh.itjust.works would love this
That one is amazing! The operations room also has a good overview, though it’s not nearly as in depth.
There are 16 thrusters on the service module and they only need like 4. One is malfunctioning. They’re trying to diagnose the problem to fix it for next time since the service module burns up on reentry.
Portability is hard for hydrogen since you hadn’t liquify it without huge pressures and cryogenic temps, so you need big tanks. But cooking stoves does seem like a pretty good use case.
