It's now 10 months since the Adams Admin announced a "Major Step" for secure bike parking (with cool images!) Yes, 🚲-friendly cities have secure bike parking 10 months with no contract award, no signs of life in the program at all Why announce & *then not do it* @NYC_DOT ?

@PhysInHistory It's amazing that the first airplane, a wood-and-canvas device, had been flown in 1903, just 66 years earlier. And all the MANY advances in flight that were created in that 66-year span. Oxygen masks Pressurized cabin Radio Pressure suit cloth materials What else?

Werner Von Braun standing next to the five F-1 engines of a Saturn V on display at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center The Saturn V rocket was a type of rocket called a Heavy Lift Vehicle, meaning it was very powerful and could launch heavy payloads into orbit or beyond. It had three stages, each with its own engines and fuel tanks, that would separate from the rocket after burning out. The Saturn V was human-rated, meaning it was designed to carry humans safely. It was also powered by liquid fuel, which gave it more thrust and efficiency than solid fuel rockets. It was 111 meters (363 feet) tall, about the height of a 36-story building, and 18 meters (60 feet) taller than the Statue of Liberty. It weighed 2.8 million kilograms (6.2 million pounds) when fully fueled for liftoff, the weight of about 400 elephants. It generated 34.5 million newtons (7.6 million pounds) of thrust at launch, creating more power than 85 Hoover Dams. It could launch about 118,000 kilograms (130 tons) into Earth orbit, or about 43,500 kilograms (50 tons) to the moon. That’s about as much weight as 10 or four school buses, respectively. It had five F-1 engines in its first stage, which were the most powerful single-chamber liquid-fueled rocket engines ever developed. Each F-1 engine produced 1.5 million newtons (337,000 pounds) of thrust at sea level. The F-1 engines were so loud that they could be heard up to 64 kilometers (40 miles) away from the launch site. The person photographed here is Werner von Braun. Werner von Braun was a German and American aerospace engineer and space architect who played a prominent role in the development of rocket technology and space exploration. He was also a member of the Nazi Party and the SS, which has raised ethical questions about his legacy. He helped design and co-develop the V-2 rocket, the first artificial object to travel into space, for Nazi Germany during World War II. The V-2 was used as a weapon against Allied cities, killing thousands of civilians. He was secretly moved to the United States after the war, along with about 1,600 other German scientists, engineers, and technicians, as part of Operation Paperclip. He worked for the US Army on an intermediate-range ballistic missile program, and he developed the rockets that launched the first US satellite Explorer 1 in 1958. He became the director of the Marshall Space Flight Center and the chief architect of the Saturn V rocket, the most powerful rocket ever flown successfully. The Saturn V was used to launch astronauts to the moon as part of the Apollo program, and to launch Skylab, the first American space station. 📷 NASA

There is absolutely no reason for any non emergency vehicles to be traveling fast enough in midtown Manhattan to send each other flying like this. I hope no pedestrians were on the sidewalk when one of these cars flew onto the corner.

@PseudoGrok @cb_doge The astronaut said, "We don't have any information whatever on that." Only Elon said that politics quashed a rescue. Maybe he was just saving face. Maybe Biden had info that made him aware that Elon's spacecraft wasn't ready to make a rescue.

BREAKING: A stranded astronaut in space confirmed that Elon Musk was “absolutely factual” when he said he had offered to bring them back earlier, but the Biden administration denied the offer for political reasons.

@space_univrs @cb_doge Or this could have happened. Elon was the only person who said that the rescue was nixed for political reasons. Maybe he was just saving face. Maybe Biden had info that made him aware that Elon's spacecraft wasn't ready to make a rescue. None of us know the truth.

🚨 MUSK WAS RIGHT, ASTRONAUTS CONFIRM IT! 🚀🔥 Elon offered to rescue astronauts stuck in space after Boeing’s capsule failed. Biden’s admin denied it, purely for politics. 💥 Astronaut Barry Wilmore: "What Musk says is absolutely factual." 💥 Mission: 8 days → Stuck for 9 months 💥 Musk’s SpaceX could have brought them home, but Biden said NO They risked astronaut lives just to protect Kamala’s campaign? This is beyond reckless, it’s disgraceful. The media trashed Musk, but now the astronauts are backing him up. Politics over safety, this is what corruption looks like. 🇺🇸🔥 #MuskWasRight #SpaceXRescue #BidenFailure

@kavitaj814 @cb_doge The conservatives are saying that it was halted for politics sake. But what if Biden knew that things like today's crash could happen? What I'm saying is, don't assume too much. Make sure all the facts are in your possession first.

@cb_doge There should be an explanation on Biden administration for this situation. Maybe they can shredded some light on the matter.
