@robert_zubrin thanks for the follow Robert. I have a question. (Actually many) With SpaceX being the only lunar HLS system, & no other viable, affordable options, even on the horizon, is there any current Need or justification for lunar gateway ? Surely LEO Gateway is next.

Not a U.S. citizen, can’t even vote! This is the best he could get!

Actually, no. Zionism is about 130 years old. No Jewish text or teaching before that time was about taking over the Land of Israel by force and taking it from other people. That is not a Jewish value. Our religion never proposed or suggested that. Zionism, a modern, political ideology, arose as a rebellion against religion.

Yes, I spoke out about the voting machine I cast my vote on the first day of early voting in Tennessee. Yes, the button kept flipping up to the wrong candidate three times. Yes, I called on a very nice poll worker who stood there until it worked on the third try.

Jared Kushner's iPhone was hacked. Dutch military intelligence got access to his iPhone. He had two bank accounts. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited up to $700 million dollars in transfers. And Hunter Biden sold a painting.

Chinese commercial startup Longyuan Space is proposing an intriguing recovery concept: catching a legless booster using an active, mobile "Octagrabber"-style cradle vehicle.

Trevor Milton told investors his electric semi could drive on its own power. It couldn't. So they rolled it down a hill and filmed it like it was driving. A federal jury convicted him of fraud. Four years in prison. Then, less than a month before the 2024 election, Milton and his wife wrote more than $1.8 million in checks to Trump's campaign. In March 2025, Trump pardoned him. Nearly $700 million prosecutors wanted paid back to his victims. Gone. If you're a working American and you break the law, you face the consequences. If you're a big Trump donor, you get a pardon. This is far and away the most corrupt White House in American history.

That’s way too high. Actual number will be more like 6 to 8.

"Underage girls testing positive for pregnancy at detention centers." Let me fix that for you. “ICE officers are raping little girls in detention centers.” There you go.

The fossil fuel industry gets 11 million dollars in subsidies every single minute: buff.ly/3BmwdIh How many more disasters does it take before we stop funding the problem? #ActOnClimate #ClimateEmergency #climate #energy #GreenNewDeal #go100re

Brazil's Amazon deforestation, official INPE data: >Jair Bolsonaro, 2019–22: 45,612 km² >Lula, 2023–26: 24,648 km² 46% less. And 2026 was the lowest since records began in 1988 Stopping deforestation is one of the most important climate fights on Earth Elections matter

If you’re seeing a lot of posts saying that Russia isn’t America’s enemy, that Putin wants peace, and that Zelensky’s a dictator who’s causing the high gas/diesel prices in the US, congrats; Elon’s algorithm has you pegged as a monumentally stupid and gullible fucking moron.

Solar power is 89% cheaper than in 2010. Even running 24/7 on batteries, solar emits about 90% less carbon over its lifetime than coal. And batteries are 93% cheaper than in 2010. Wind and solar are now the cheapest new electricity on Earth. What do you think the future is?

Not one of the 16 graphs showing Earth's planetary vital signs is moving in the right direction. Instead, they all point to an acceleration of global climate breakdown: Greenhouse gases, ocean heat, and sea levels are surging, while glaciers, ice sheets, and reflectivity plunge. 7 vital signs are at record extremes. This is not a warning for the future, it is a diagnosis of the present Phase out fossil fuels now

Hard to think of a wilder product unveiling. Not sure how quickly drivers are going to be leaping over each other in traffic, but damn, this was a cool way to introduce Roadster to the world.

Can hover 6x as long on the Moon as on Earth. Recharging the COPVs a minor inconvenience (/s).

We're gathering scientists, engineers, philosophers and theologians to debate "The Place of Humanity in Space" on Thursday 22nd of October 2030 UTC here on X. With myself, @meharmsen and others to be confirmed. We will talk mulitplanetary civilisation, worldviews, science fiction, and if humanity is a mere "bootloader". Come and join us next Thursday!

"Musk cut off Ukraine!" 🙄 Except he didn't. Starshield is not Starlink. It's the military network, and Musk says the US government controls it and sets the limits. Funny how this drops three weeks before the midterms. Feels like another October hit piece to me. 🤔

This piece of shit with our piece of shit President is Daniel Tocci a super-hardcore MAGA propagandist. He was convicted of possessing 100k+ photos of children being raped. Surprising literally no one…Donny pardoned him.
