    SpaceX's Starship will go interstellar someday, Elon Musk says

    Yes, sure 😁 One engine to accelerate between 1 and second space speed. Must take more time, and how to balance trajectory when work only one engine?

    FAA to oversee investigation of SpaceX Starship's 3rd test flight

    This vehicle is huge and heavy and can cause a lot of casualties on earth surface even when flying without a crew.

    Do you want to spend a year inside a mock Mars base for science? If so, NASA wants you.

    How much do they pay? All the ideology painted around the inspiration will not pay for my lost time and bills. If the stuffing is impressive, I'll be willing to live in this prison for the duration described.

    NASA's interstellar Voyager 1 spacecraft isn't doing so well — here's what we know

    Just make a new generation probe, with better and more number of scientific instruments, install a powerful enough reactor and generator and improved versions of the Hall effect engine, or VASIMR, and accelerate that ship to 10X the speed of Voyager 1. It will much faster and more meaningful...

    Our luscious blue Earth used to be a frozen snowball

    Below 5% lose mass in all live period of Sun. From ignition to now.

    How the Large Hadron Collider's successor will hunt for the dark universe

    No one who read this article now be alive in 2070. These bureaucracy timings are DOA.

    NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab laying off 8% of its workforce

    The work of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory should be mainly that of the other end of the rocket, which ensures the delivery of the precious cargo, otherwise it would not be called that. As for how much the delivered freight costs. I think that the priority for profit is for private companies...

    NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab laying off 8% of its workforce

    I wonder when this lab last built and tested a brand new large rocket engine, as they say, from scratch?

    NASA to 'wiggle' broken Ingenuity Mars helicopter's blades to analyze damage

    Because weight. Any gram more=feet lower flight. Martian atmosphere is very thin.

    Which telescope will be 1st to find alien life? Scientists have some ideas

    The telescope that will be able to detect extraterrestrial life, who knows, may already exist as a project. But certainly its construction and launch into space has not taken place yet.

    SpaceX's Starship to launch 'Starlab' private space station in late 2020s

    I guess you can guess what happens to a closed space, even a high-tech one, when several people breathe, eat, exercise, bathe, excrete, conduct experiments, etc., in it for decades? About solar panels which adsorb decades solar and other cosmic radiation.

    The universe might be younger than we think, galaxies' motion suggests

    The differences in background power are not a particularly large number, but the granule sizes are too large and are themselves not the same apparent size. I do not think that the fluctuations that are assumed provide a sufficient explanation for these facts.

    The universe might be younger than we think, galaxies' motion suggests

    Have too big anisotropy and seen universe in microwaves is granulated in last maps.

    The universe might be younger than we think, galaxies' motion suggests

    Yes, this looks like it was set up on purpose. Nothing else works, well it's relic radiation, which may be of a different origin than the big bang-friendly interpretation.
