I think we need to prepare for a distinct possibility on April 5th. Space twitter, this is very important for you all to read and understand, so you can explain to the laymen in the event that this actually occurs. In 1968, humans went to the moon for the first time ever, and they did it during Christmas. And, for the occasion, the Apollo 8 astronauts read a passage from the book of genesis. Fast forward to 2026, and Artemis II is flying a very similar mission, this time, during Easter. An equally, if not more important holy day to Christians all over the world. Now as many of you may know, Astronaut Victor Glover has been very vocal about his faith, and has brought a bible with him to the Moon. This means that there is a significant chance that a reading from the Bible occurs on Easter, in a similar vain to what Apollo 8 did on Christmas. Spitter, your job will be to remind people that this is NOT a political event, and is in fact, something that NASA astronauts have done before, the last time we went to the Moon. Wether this actually occurs, I can’t say, and I imagine it is rather unlikely, but I think that if it does, this will be an extremely publicized and unfortunately an extremely politicized event, and we need to be the rational voices explaining why it is happening. Thank you all for your attention to this matter.

"We need to establish regulations on lunar mining" I hate decels so much it's unreal.

Join TERAFAB on this journey to build a Terawatt of chips and solar and 10 million tons to orbit per year.

They don’t really know how lift works with airplane wings either btw. And for any explanation you’re about to put into the comments NASA has probably published a slide just like this

It is crazy how good Grok 4.1 is. It just solved a week's worth of lunar soil mechanics research in <1 minute and wrote the results in Mathematica script ready-to-go. It even went ahead and did the parts I was going to ask it to do next.

Grok should have a moral constitution

I got sent some mysterious circuit boards for a project, does anyone want to guess what these are and what I’m trying to do?

I honestly do not see the appeal of trying to terraform Mars to make it inhabitable like the Earth. What benefit does having a colony there give us? How could it be accomplished? As far as I can tell, it’s a pipe dream. For one, Mars’ surface has 6 millibars of air pressure on its surface; that is less than 1% of Earth’s. Because the air there is so thin, not to mention, it is composed of 95% carbon dioxide (CO₂), it’s not at all breathable. We would need to increase Mars’ atmospheric mass with enough diatomic nitrogen (N₂), diatomic oxygen (O₂), Argon (Ar) and water vapor (H₂O) to (1) make it breathable, (2) for there to exist liquid water on its surface, and (3) to make Mars’ surface warm enough to inhabit. Even if that were possible, the lack of a magnetic field would cause solar wind to strip away most of the atmosphere. How could an artificial one be created? To simply inhabit Mars could realistically be achieved by either building a pressurized dome or building underground. But you would have to be a mentally ill person to think living like that would be appealing in the slightest. And, it isn’t going to save our species if we remain in the solar system. When the sun runs out of hydrogen in its core and starts to burn helium in about 5 billion years, it will swell, become a red giant and swallow the rocky planets. Mars will not save us. But if someone like Elon wants to try it using his money, by all means prove me wrong.
