That thing is massive. It wouldn't take many of them to create a livable habitat. You could create an entirely new space station in low earth orbit with 2-3 of them linked together that was bigger than the one we have now.

I thought somebody had already shown a prototype version that could be made into a space station with liveable space that was greater than the current ISS already. Might have been linked here or at NSF.

The ISS has roughly 915.6 cubic meters of pressurized volume, which is slightly less than a single Starship's interior cabin volume of 1,145 cubic meters.

I usually thought Tory wasn't that bad, especially considering the usual CEO you see at one of the "establishment" organizations, but man he really showed his ass on that one.

In addition to not being a rocket scientist I am not a radio frequency expert but this does seem like a really big deal.

Generally, the longer the wavelength, the greater the penetration and range. That comes with the penalty of bigger antennas on your receiver and lower bandwidth but OFDM transmissions help reduce the bandwidth restrictions.

And I don't like scrolling through a thread of tweets to play catch-up. I will often just skip posts that are nothing but a tweet.

And to think certain leftist on here were saying he's not a very smart guy, that he got lucky because of his dad …. You have to wonder where they got their DNA from

Elon will be the biggest thing that happened in most people's lives living today …

Reddit is a cesspool of Elan and SPCX hate. It's hilarious to watch.
