I wonder if they still got paid

Launch the next one already tipped so it will land straight

I don't see astroforge going anywhere with mining asteroids but I hope to be wrong. I think it's all a plot to get some investors money maybe do a successful mission, launch an IPO, cash out and disappear.

high barrier to entry, no competition, intuitive machines, firefly and friends should be profitable soon. they're all piggybacking on spacex right? that's where the big money actually is, genius business

Still cool nonetheless

If it was 1975 I would've been more excited about this

People who worry about this haven't understood how our current "ai" works. There's no intelligence, it's just a probabilistic model designed to give the appearance of intelligence. But the vast majority of people's brains go into hypnosis when reading the words "artificial intelligence" woah...

Lol. I expected I don't know what photo. I can see more stars if I take a photo on a cloudy night with a cheap phone

Couldn't also be the case that civilizations are so incredibly rare that maybe one or two happen per galaxy? I don't see why we should assume that it's either none or thousands.

We'll never know who among us was right, but if you had to make a guess, will anybody ever come across the voyagers and play the record? If yes, how do you imagine that scenario playing out? Will they understand anything? And for the scientists among you is it possible that the voygers will...

It would be interesting to know if Voyager 1 and 2 are discovering anything interesting nowadays or are just there moving in the dark replying "yes I am alive" but nothing more

Can someone explain me how is it possible that we can send a message from here and Voyager will receive it even if 25 billion km from us? There are no interferences in space? I would think that if nothing else at least there should be the chance that planets make some kind of "shadow"? I...

@Unclear Engineer, I admire your way of expressing your ideas with such clarity. I don't like the misinformation narratives behind SETI, as the media outlets make it sound like there's no intelligent alien life anywhere because SETI hasn't found it in 50 years. But its very possible that it's...

this is exactly what I'm saying. Likely aliens are doing the same. Unless some alien world is directly pointing a message at us we won't detect it. Why should we expect than an alien civilization would spend resources to point a super strong message directly towards earth for decades until we...

Are we trying to contact someone specifically? Maybe the aliens in Trappist, if they exist, are just like us with their own SETI version, looking for aliens trying to get in touch with them. It would be hilarious if we're surrounded by aliens and we all think the other should make the first...
