This seems pretty practical to me

Alright. Let's talk about what happens after DTR.

What is a good hypothetical for what happens after DTR?

@Procella Eques I'm not saying it's a bad or impractical idea, it's already being tried. I just don't think it will last as a method

@Deleted User Doesn't have to last as a method. We only have to get our people off of this planet.

Rockoons sounds like a Saturday morning cartoon series.

@Deleted User interesting I'll check this out

@Zilna Jestov The reason that rule exists is to prevent people from getting into arguments about hypothetical policies. Like, what the right white percentage is, or whatever.

Space travel is a harmless topic.

If you think someone is breaking the rules, tag moderators. Don't moderate on your own.

then ion engines will serve us

@Rabbidsith rocketry is infinitely more efficient for payload

BPS cited a recent poll saying that more than 50% of Germans want to emigrate <:nervous:359009898115104770>

@Asatru Artist - MD Ethnostates are not theoretical, just far off in the future for us. Just like space colonization.

We went to the moon many decades ago, and now have to take care of dindus instead of colonizing Mars...

I have my money on SSTO (Single stage to orbit) vehicles, and semireusable rockets.

@Deleted User Yup. Let's just get enough people into space and then we can just laugh as the POZ cry about how "oppressed" they are without us to pay for their shit.

@Jacob Help, chat is talking about Rockoons! 🚔

@Deleted User Same here. Let's just get a boeing 747 but with plasma engines.

@Deleted User or better yet a concord

SR-71 Blackbird would be my choice. 😎

redpill Elon Musk and we won't have to do it ourselves

concord with plasma aerospikes

@Rabbidsith more like this:

he lost control of Tesla though didn't he?

fly to space in luxury and style

@Deleted User YES!!!

Like what would be wrong with a straight up zeppelin

>UK
>the future

we take to high altitude

Hindenberg in space?

exactly

@Asatru Artist - MD he lost one title. he still works for them i forget details

hmm

its aerodynamic

i wonder how much clout he lost though

@Jacob thanks brother

>zeppelin
>aerodynamic

it's just gotta float though

@Zilna Jestov An ethnostate in North America is very theoretical, and there are a lot of variables in terms of how it can be organized that can be contentious. Space travel is just... space travel. I'll allow it on the basis that it's not a contentious topic.

really high

It's getting pretty contentious now...zeppelin vs rocket war when?
