We could hire Space X to do it

2018-06-10 19:48:11 UTC  

:))

2018-06-10 19:48:48 UTC  

Libertarian Party knows Elon's son

2018-06-10 19:48:51 UTC  

He's Party leader

2018-06-10 19:48:52 UTC  

yeet

2018-06-10 19:49:06 UTC  

so how big would these rods be

2018-06-10 19:49:12 UTC  

Or attach weaponry on our satalites and strategically shoot down foreign satalites that then fall to Earth and hit the ghettos.

2018-06-10 19:49:20 UTC  

about the size of telephone poles I'm guessing?

2018-06-10 19:49:30 UTC  

Depends.

2018-06-10 19:49:38 UTC  

for the sake of simplicity

2018-06-10 19:49:39 UTC  

yes

2018-06-10 19:49:43 UTC  

I'd say more of a street light

2018-06-10 19:50:08 UTC  

But hey, the bigger it is, the more land it destroys.

2018-06-10 19:51:09 UTC  

okay I did the math

2018-06-10 19:51:34 UTC  

anyways, since we're talking ghettos, probably going to be in urban areas we'd need to reconstruct and all

2018-06-10 19:51:37 UTC  

it would cost 185,514,584 dollars to launch one fucking rod into space

2018-06-10 19:52:24 UTC  

so approximately 200 million dollars per rod

2018-06-10 19:52:29 UTC  

yeah that's impractical

2018-06-10 19:52:29 UTC  

yes

2018-06-10 19:52:36 UTC  

How the fuck did you do that math?

2018-06-10 19:52:53 UTC  

telephone pole average radius: 21.5 inches

2018-06-10 19:53:00 UTC  

height: 25 feet

2018-06-10 19:53:04 UTC  

(300 inches)

2018-06-10 19:53:44 UTC  

volume of a cylinder is Pi x r^2 x h

2018-06-10 19:54:19 UTC  

Pi times radius squared times height

2018-06-10 19:54:41 UTC  

so a telephone pole is about 436000 cubic inches

2018-06-10 19:55:15 UTC  

tungsten's density is 19.3 grams per cubic inch

2018-06-10 19:55:47 UTC  

19.3 x 436000 = 8414800 grams

2018-06-10 19:56:02 UTC  

convert that to pounds and you get 18551.45844 pounds

2018-06-10 19:56:11 UTC  

it costs 10,000 dollars to put 1 pound in space

2018-06-10 19:56:34 UTC  

there was some rounding

2018-06-10 19:56:46 UTC  

so it's probably higher than 185.5 million dollars

2018-06-10 19:57:05 UTC  

HM..

2018-06-10 19:57:27 UTC  

How about firing them into the atmosphere to then drift down?

2018-06-10 19:57:34 UTC  

Wait.

2018-06-10 19:57:41 UTC  

I just made an error

2018-06-10 19:57:45 UTC  

>Trying to kill people because I want to legalize breast milk

2018-06-10 19:57:45 UTC  

YEET

2018-06-10 19:58:03 UTC  

tungsten is 19.3 grams per cubic CENTIMETER
not cubic inch
