their is really people out there that think we are better now than we were in 1969 when it comes to humans traveing in space

@Aquillon: I mean if they want to say 💩 doesnt kill entire crews as often, then yes? But sadly, no, we haven't gone farther than the moon with people so space travel is just disappointing for me at the moment
Ye
Thank
well thats if u think we really went to the moon
But hey, sign me up for that one way trip to Mars if it happens in my lifetime
*doubtful but I can dream*
when i see a rocket take off then come back down towards earth before it gets very high makes me think we either arent or cant go to space
somehow nasa has better tech than the military cause the fastest missle is mach 5 but nasa can go mach 22
we spend a lot more on ways to kille ach other than space travel so money is no excuse
nasa knows magic thats all
lmao
you think any missile needs to go faster than mach 5?
well it only goes mach 3 now but they are planning to upgrade it to 5
Mach 22 for an ICBM is just wasting money
not a choice
Also that, but theoretically if they could, what's the point?
too hard to intercept
Fair enough, but would it be cost effective in the long run to even fire one
NASA rockets already aren't cost effective
That entire organization is an expense, it never really turns profit, monetarily at least
ICBMs are very cost effective if you put nukes on them
far more effective than bombers or cruise missiles
Not if the enemy has multi kill vehicles
kinetic interceptors are just propaganda
a full scale attack is impossible to stop
and you only need 1 warhead to get through
the best an ABM system can hope for is to stop one or two ICBMs
They throw a bunch of these up
like north korea's arsenal
insufficient
you need 100% reliability
and need to be able to distinguish decoys from warheads
which is very non-trivial
