news:2a3f1d693cea6125dc30fc81efc3ee21.49644@mygate .mailgate.org Relocation of ISS to ME-L1 is much easier said than done, but it's doable. Station-keeping ISS initially at roughly 60,000 to 64,000 km away from the moon(center), this is where I believe the orbital speed of this ME-L1 nullification zone becomes roughly 165 m/s. Even though at 400 kgf it's technically doable, obviously it's not going to transpire any time soon, especially via this highly naysay anti-think-tank of a GOOGLE Usenet from Jewish hell that sucks and blows off the truth better than ever. - Brad Guth -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

Actually, moving ISS into the Venus-L2(VL2) halo zone of supposedly
1,014,290 km away from that geothermally active and thus somewhat newish orb is by far the best for all things considered. Venus L2 for the likes of ISS can be fully staffed because, as such it should become perfectly humanly survivable for a 19 month stint. Upon average, I believe it could be cooler for ISS than currently orbiting Earth, and there'd be less cosmic and obviously no moon radiation factors, and even somewhat less solar contributed flak of radiation to deal with. I don't believe there's even any significant amount of trapped radiation belts to deal with. As compared to orbiting Earth, I don't believe there wouldn't be 10% the station-keeping demands per month upon reboost or other reactive thrusting demands for sustaining the orbital halo requirements. One good resupply of fuel per 19 months should be sufficient, along with a few less tonnage deployments of supplies (beer and pizza) getting delivered up to +/- 6 months worth of each 19 month cycle. Actually, a solar--steam powered form of reaction thrusting via all that beer should be sufficient all by itself. - Brad Guth -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

Here's yet another perfectly good reason to relocate our existing ISS
into the relatively safe halo sweet spot of VL2, as providing a final pitstop before depositing those deserving souls onto that toasty surface of Venus. Lo and behold, I have devised yet another good use for the likes of Venus as is: (no terraforming required) As I've informed our Usenet resident anti-global-warming avenger "Roger Coppock", that I'd go so far as to agree that humanity is worth as much as 25% of our global warming fiasco, but that's about it. No matters what, Earth is going to get itself hotter, without or w/o any help from humanity. Therefore, we've got next to nothing to lose by going all out towards getting folks (as many as possible) onto other planets or moons. Here's a fully "science friendly" solution that's technically doable and way past due. OOPS! I forgot that your all or nothing mindset of naysayism is still in the usual fail-safe mode of denial, as to banishing the mere thought of our moon having any impact whatsoever upon our environment. After all, isn't it so much simpler to exclude the evidence afforded by hard-science, and to otherwise avoid having to use those pesky regular laws of physics? What we badly need is a good or even not so good other planet or moon, intended for sequestering those individuals that simply refuse to accept the mainstream status quo of infomercial science and of infomercial history. Of course, I'm being silly, as it should be the other way around, or didn't you folks realize that part? Got that "Prison Planet" ??? why the hell not Ceres ??? http://cosmic.lifeform.org/ Thomas Lee Elifritz, Other than the prospects of getting a little crowded, perhaps "Ceres - The Fifth Planet From A Star Called The Sun" can become our "Prison Planet" should be looked into. However, perhaps otherwise our extremely nearby and not so very old Venus could also be utilized as is, such as in place of sending folks that have failed to assimilate into the mainstream status quo to hell. This nearby alternative would be a darn good thing for "A government that repeatedly makes bad decisions, resulting in worsening conditions for the country it runs." Better yet for a "A government run by an intellectually challenged leader." Best of all for "A nation comprised of intellectually challenged citizens." But what otherwise to do if we're having to continually deal with all the rest of those village idiots that are merely dumbfounded past the point of no return? Too bad we still can't even get ourselves close enough to our very own moon without frying our frail DNA, much less walking on that physically dark and otherwise downright nasty surface. However, the viable notion of going underground should be entirely possible, as offering us a terrific 'Prison Moon' alternative that we can obviously keep a close eye on those *******s we've sent there for their own damn good. - Brad Guth -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

Since it's officially Usenet taboo to even discuss relocating our
existing ISS to our moon's L1, or especially as for going off to visit the wizard of Oz at Venus L2, in that case we'll need to start this nifty LSE-CM/ISS entirely from scratch, or at least allow China to accomplish what's so impossible for us, especially since we're still trying so gosh darn hard at dominating global fossil and yellowcake energy, and especially extra dominating and/or controlling over Muslim oil before we manage to cause WW-III. Once again for the record, our moon's L1 is the one and only holy grail of future space exploration and global domination. Here's just a few basic considerations for China utilizing our moon's L1, whereas to improve upon what I'd previously offered to our resident naysay/anti-think-tank likes of "Wayne Throop". This is basically what my LSE-CM/ISS or of whatever best utilization of this Moon/Earth L1 has to offer the open mindset type of folks that are not specifically looking to merely stalk and bash against everything that's not of their idea, and/or of whatever's under their sun that's apparently orbiting their Old Testament flat Earth (and for Christ's sake on a stick, that was merely another pun, so get over it). I'm not the bad guy or even the messenger from hell, I'm not even anti bible/koran thumping as long is it isn't being tossed in my face or otherwise being utilized against my honest intentions to share and share alike. Most faith based individuals are really quite nice folks that wouldn't hurt a Muslim fly, whereas their supposed troopers as represented within Usenet are for the most part downright insane. A brief list of the moon's L1 benefits to humanity, and quite possibly the best possible salvation to our global warming fiasco: Moon L1 represents the ultimate of Star Wars and of NEO defensive high ground. Unlimited interplanetary mission launch capability, away from the 1e9 m3 CM/ISS. Unlimited tether dipole energy (as in how many clean terawatts would you like?) Safe and efficient access to/from our earthshine illuminated moon's surface. Unlimited (mostly robotic) access to extracting lunar He3, plus countless other nifty elements. Effective and efficient interplanetary and interstellar communications via quantum/FM binary laser cannon packets. The ultimate of an efficient fuel/refuel depot, plus the one and only efficient access to whatever tonnage of composite shielding you'd ever care to add to each mission. VLA/SAR imaging of say less than a meter resolution of whatever's at the distance of Jupiter, therefore all potential NEOs of whatever's larger than a meter are fully identified and easily tracked before their having reached the critical realm of Jupiter. BTW; The tether dipole element's termination platform that's extended away from the primary L1 CM/ISS, as per reaching that dipole tethered unit to within as little as 4r of Earth (isn't that good news, or what) is simply a given, whereas having such a nearby interactive location can be utilized for all sorts of invaluable contributions to Earth and moon science and the advancement of humanity's role in exploiting the vast wealth of other planets and moons. Imagine also how many Muslim butts or the likes of whomever on your axis of evil list that your kind could so easily fry from that nearby platform, that's hosting a dozen or so of those nifty 100 GW laser cannons. There no question that I'll have to edit a few of my existing LSE-CM/ISS papers, in order to further reflect upon and/or embellish upon these constructive/positive aspects of our being in charge of this one and only moon L1 zone that's parked roughly 60,000 km from the physically dark and nasty lunar deck. Even if not initially tethered to the moon, the efficient station-keeping demands per tonne of whatever ISS like craft (aka Clarke Station) shouldn't be 1% of what our present day ISS is demanding. Our moon's interactive L1 is also a rather nifty do-everything location where the most tonnage per given fly-by-rocket effort is going to offer the utmost accomplishment for those mostly robotic deployments, that can be effectively remote flown, all the way down to the cm resolution, from most any MicroSoft flight simulator equipped laptop PC or MAC. My notion of the final 1e9 m3 CM/ISS abode is that of a 256e6 tonne installation that's fully tethered to the moon, with as much as 99.9% of that mass (including whatever tethers) as being derived from the moon itself. Even though that sounds horrifically big, massive and a touch complex, as such it certainly doesn't have to start out all that big and massive or complex. Too bad there's only room for one such LSE-CM/ISS, of which China is most likely going to own and operate this on our behalf (free of charge? somehow I don't think so). Do you folks speak a little Chinese, or at least some Mandarin worthy slang? - Brad Guth -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

If going for other planets, as such we could really use our moon's L1.
In fact, if going for our moon it's rather nifty if not essential for having the mission command platform as coasting safely and efficiently within this ME-L1 pocket. 0) Our moon's L1 isn't a cheap date, nor is it not complex. You'll need more than a good slide rule or pocket calculator if planning upon utilizing this nifty interactive space that's so nearby. In other words, all morons and/or the dumb and dumber sorts of snookered fools need not apply. 1) Anything deployed at our moon's L1 starts off small, and it grows to suit. 2) From then on. it only gets as big and/or as complex as you'd like it to get. 3) Because of what this LSE-CM/ISS represents, it's not going to happen overnight. My previously suggested 1e9 m3 CM/ISS abode that's capable of becoming worth 256e6 tonnes is not an all or nothing sort of super Clarke Station on steroids. For starters, it's simply quite a bit larger, it's placed a wee bit further towards Earth, as well as it's multi-tethered directly to the moon, and there are a few interactive elements involved. The massive hull or shell of this CM/ISS may or may not have to spin, as there are artificial gravity alternatives that would function from within. Besides, I'm absolutely certain that China will know exactly what to do. So, why are so many of you folks getting yourselves so gosh darn huffy about all of this? Just because you don't have a masters degree in Chinese Mandarin doesn't mean that we're out of luck. That's because being smarter than us, as such they'll learn our language (as many already have) in order to accommodate their less fortunate clients, such as us. http://www.lpi.usra.edu/publications...aryland01b.pdf This fancy enough "Clarke Station" document, that's rather interesting but otherwise seriously outdated, not to mention way under-shielded unless incorporating 8+ meters of water plus having established an artificial magnetosphere, or perhaps 16+ meters of h2o if w/o magnetosphere (all because it's parked within 60,000 km of our physically dark and otherwise highly reactive moon that's providing gamma and hard-X-rays), is simply downright wussy about sharing the positive science and habitat/depot considerations for utilizing the moon's L1. In fact, there's hardly a mention of the tremendous L1 benefits to humanity, much less as to space exploration or the daunting task of salvaging our environment, and it's still not having squat to do with developing, exploiting or otherwise terraforming the moon itself. - Brad Guth -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |

Most folks are still not being allowed to fully appreciate our moon's
L1. Of course, most Americans are still pretty much mainstream dumbfounded and/or having been snookered about a great many such important things in this highly infomercial skewed life, as we've been allowed to know of. Perhaps those more intelligent members in support of the China National Space Administration/CNSA are as such less snookered than we're giving them credit for. Basically, the average free-gravity-zone of this moon L1 is supposedly r33.5~r34 away from the moon and otherwise merely r51 from Earth (unfortunately there's still no hard-scientific and thus independently replicated proof of such actually being the case of those specific numbers), that's worthy of obtaining micro if not nano and even pico gravity, although nearly any +/- adjustment in the net gravity can be accommodated and rather efficiently interactively sustained. Within this interactive moon L1 pocket (+/- wherever it has to be) there should be as little as 1% the atoms/cm3 and of the required velocity is roughly 9 fold less than LEO (those factors alone represent a rather huge reduction in orbital friction, and thereby greatly minimizing station-keeping energy demands). There's also no pesky gauntlet of Van Allen belt radiation or SAA like nasty pocket of magnetosphere stored radiation. It's also nearly always sunny as well as having either earthshine and/or moonshine at your disposal, and of that moonshine so happens to include a great deal of useful secondary/recoil photons in the IR/FIR spectrum, plus offering loads of gamma and hard-X-rays because there's so little mass between L1 and the highly reactive naked surface of the physically dark and cosmic morgue that's represented by our moon. The moon's L1 is not technically a problem for most robotics, however our frail DNA will demand a great amount of shielding that's similar to 8 meters of water, and for any long term (multi year) human involvement demanding 16 meters of water unless an artificial magnetosphere can be sustained. There's also the pesky matter of having to survive various meteors of potentially lethal flak that isn't the least bit moderated in velocity nor being gravity diverted. This fancy enough "Clarke Station" document that's nicely revised and certainly rather interesting but otherwise seriously outdated, http://www.lpi.usra.edu/publications...aryland01b.pdf not to mention way under-shielded unless incorporating 8+ meters of water plus having somehow established an artificial magnetosphere, or perhaps incorporating 16+ meters of h2o if w/o magnetosphere (shielding that's necessary because it's parked within 60,000 km from our physically dark and otherwise highly reactive moon that's continually providing such a not so DNA friendly TBI worth of gamma and hard-X-rays), is simply a downright deficient document about sharing the positive science and constructive habitat/depot considerations for utilizing the moon's L1. In fact, there's hardly any mention of the tremendous L1 benefits to humanity, much less as to space exploration or the daunting task of salvaging our mascon warmed environment, and it's still not having squat to do with any primary task of actually developing, exploiting or otherwise terraforming the moon itself. On the other hand, whereas the CM/ISS portion of the LSE which I've proposed offers 50t/m2 of outter shell or hull shielding for accommodating the 1e9 m3 interior, thereby multiple decades if not an entire lifetime can be afforded, as to safely accommodating our frail DNA. That may seem like a rather great amount of tonnage deployment, though eventually 99.9% is derived from the moon itself. Of course, don't mind anything that I have to suggest, whereas you can keep thinking as small and/or as insignificant as you'd like. However, our having remained as LEO/terrestrial sequestered isn't going to help us explore, pillage and rape the other planets and of their moons, not to mention the mining and/or possible terraforming potential of digging into our very own global warming moon that's chuck full of nifty and rare elements. I guess what's needed for this topic is an open mindset that isn't afraid of it's own shadow, that isn't afraid of making a few honest mistakes nor demonstrating that perhaps we're not exactly the smartest nor the most entitled species of DNA in this universe.

Our Taboo/Nondisclosure Moon
http://groups.google.com/group/soc.c...b30b85de221840 http://mygate.mailgate.org/mynews/so...smart&p=1/1566 "Paul Mc" wrote in message ups.com A subject worthy of discussion. Has Arthur C expressed an opinion about it? I obviously have to agree with "Paul Mc", but what's your honest give or take? This is not a Clarke Station, although it's entirely similar in having utilized the moon's L1 gravity-well pocket. However, instead of having to interactively drift and subsequently reaction thrust all over the place, the LSE-CM/ISS is nicely tethered to the moon, and it's otherwise pulled upon and thereby better aligned by the dipole element which reaches it's termination science pod/platform/depot to within 4r (or of whatever's appropriate) of mother Earth.

news:2a3f1d693cea6125dc30fc81efc3ee21.49644@mygate .mailgate.org Relocating ISS to MEL1 is actually a seriously bad idea. However, moving it to VL2 seems doable, if not becoming a wee bit too cold. Besides our moon being terribly hot and seriously nasty by day, accomplishing the cosmic dark and dusty surface of our somewhat salty moon will most likely have to wait until after WW-III (the energy war to end all such energy wars). Instead of our eventually walking on our moon, perhaps accomplishing Venus L2 even before our moon's L1 may become the next best affordable thing to having safe zero-g sex in space (at least VL2 is POOF doable, although the to/from commute is still a real DNA killer). However, for the moment we seem to be running ourselves out of talent and resources, not to mention the necessary loot. Therefore I'm ruling out a Venus surface trek or even that of a composite rigid airship expedition that'll never set a human hot-foot upon that geothermally active deck of 20+ j/m2. I'm also back into thinking faith-based science can become a very good thing, as a common club/cult like binder of moral intentions and motivation as based upon the remorse of our past that hasn't always gone according to plan, and otherwise for accomplishing the greater good on behalf of humanity and that of salvaging our badly failing environment. Earth is supposedly a complex community of critically interrelated life like nowhere other that we know of, yet special interest group after group has been into doing all that each can muster, in order to take from others while making the future survival of such others/outsiders as difficult and/or as spendy as can be accomplished. Unfortunately Osama/Usama didn't exactly take kindly to such notions of Islamic/Muslims paying the ultimate price over and over, while the less than faith-based world of greed, arrogance and bigotry around them was continually living a better quality of life at the ongoing demise of so many others. Unfortunately, there's nothing all that simple about all of this, except to understand that it takes at least two to tango, doesn't it. The question of the almighty day is; How many ideological faith-based wars are you folks willing to accept and/or allow to transpire over such perpetrated disinformation and outright lies? Born-again liars seldom if ever tell on one another, do they. Just look at what the Jews did on behalf of getting and/or allowing Jesus Christ (one of their own kind) or any other trouble makers to being put on a stick, or especially at what a Catholic Pope did to most all of those nice Cathars, and then each holy group proceeded to lie their born-again infomercial spewing and otherwise remorseless butts off as though they had the likes of our resident born-again LLPOF warlord(GW Bush) at the helm. As per topic/author stalking usual, it's the status quo of "send in the clowns" of spooks/moles and MIB damage control borgs, or simply utilizing the sorts of the snookered and thus easily dumbfounded fools like yourself doing their level best at trying to keep those silly perpetrated cold-war lids on tight, and of otherwise protecting that fleet of their good ship USS LOLLIPOPs from sinking into their own cesspools of NASA's infomercial crapolla. Of course the Russian/USSR space-race and impressive moon efforts were essentially into doing the very same to their own kind, and if anything it's currently more so into snookering as much of their kind for all they're worth, and then some. It's pretty much what absolute *******s of a kind do best, isn't it? In spite of all their infomercial spewing gauntlets of mainstream status quo flak, I think we've been rather nicely snookered (some of us to death and/or into the poor-house) by those having "the right stuff", and taken to the cleaners by that of our mutually perpetrated cold-war(s) that has cost us precious decades of having badly diverted our best talents, having way over-spent our limited resources and obviously over the decades having taken trillions upon trillions of hard earned dollars, that has now turned its focus into a bloody global energy domination fiasco, plus yet another round of a rather nasty global inflation that's currently in the task of our taking Muslim oil. At least that's what I think. Unlike what you've been told, I'm not the least bit anti-space or much less anti-moon, it's just that we simply do not need to walk upon the physically dark and nasty moon (at least not in person), just establish and hold onto the moon's L1 zone or gravity nullification pocket is way more than good enough, that is unless you don't mind China or perhaps Russia having that sweet spot all to themselves, and that's pretty much what I and anyone with so much as half a village idiot brain should think. By way of my best interpretation, there was in fact no such moon landings in the manner suggested by our NASA/Apollo or of those USSR fiascos, whereas that silly "moontruth" movie was obviously a good enough spoof on behalf of folks just like yourself, although it further demonstrates that such impressive infomercial alternatives were in fact doable, as were many other photographic examples of what at the time was equally hocus-pocus MI6/NSA business as per cold-war cloak and dagger usual. As based upon the regular laws of physics and of the best available science that's replicated, there's actually 1000% better proof positive that we hadn't walked on that physically dark and nasty moon of ours, and it's pretty much of the very same ongoing reasons why it's going to take us another spendy decade if ever before anyone of our kind actually walks on that earthshine illuminated moon for a few minutes (possibly a few hours worth) before reaching their career TBI dosage limits. Besides accomplishing the moon itself, too bad that EML1/MEL1 (moon's L1) is still so gosh darn taboo or need-to-know, if not entirely nondisclosure rated. Those specific hard numbers are simply as illusive as were all of those Muslim WMD. EML1 Considerations / by: Rand Simberg http://mygate.mailgate.org/mynews/sc...ma ilgate.org http://groups.google.com/group/sci.s...5d992607bb0431 Oddly, it's still by far the most payload efficient parking orbit in town, always in view of Earth, always in view of our side of the moon, nearly always in the sun, plus getting loads of extra IR/FIR energy off the moon, as well as taking on the full secondary share or gauntlet of lunar gamma and hard-X-rays that have got to be good for something besides terminating our frail DNA. L1 is even close enough that an Apache Point 3.5 meter class of instrument with an extra 10X projection lens and the 1.5 micron CCD could easily pull in Apollo details of their original surface expeditions by way of those various robotic impact deployments, although it would also put the likes of the Hubble/SST to shame by a good 100 fold improved resolution at nearly twice the light gathering potential, and there's certainly no image stacking problems of getting the PhotoShop composite image resolution of our earthshine illuminated moon down to well below 1 meter (similar to what KECK can manage if they masked off 99% of each primary mirror). Remember that in L1 there's almost no limitation as to establishing the ultimate focal length of that secondary mirror, whereas it could just as easily become a full km if not 1000 km, or perhaps as much as going for the moon itself at 58,000 km seems entirely doable (there could be a south pole, north pole and the east/west horizon placements of such robotic/interactive secondary mirrors). L1 as the VLA portion of an SAR image receiving via terrestrial radar transmitters is of course out of this silly world impressive, not that it couldn't easily accommodate the entire SAR do-everything of something 10 fold or larger than our shuttle bay SIR-C/X-SAR configured alternative, that which from LEO pulled in those impressive 1.5 meter raw image resolutions of Earth, and even that 1994 accomplishment was obviously as of better than a decade ago. Perhaps soon enough China will accomplish their initial place-holding version of my LSE-CM/ISS, thereby control most all of the moon's L1 and damn near everything related, including the physically dark and salty moon itself that supposedly has all of that nifty He3 that's so fusion invaluable, plus offering viable access to a cosmic morgue worth of other nifty and rare elements and most likely having a few of those weird ET spores to spare. The following topic has become chuck full of nifty ideas and more than a few notions for utilizing our moon's L1 (though I've got lots more to say about utilizing L1 than they do). Too bad that it's still so taboo/nondisclosure rated, with little mention of myself and I believe nothing of any Clarke Station, other than via my contributions that are excluded and/or in banishment mode because I tend to ask too many of those pesky questions, and I otherwise impose too much of the truth and nothing but the truth, along with my fair share of deductive common sense and a touch of remorse on behalf of benefiting the lower 99.9% of humanity and perhaps salvaging our otherwise failing environment to boot.

news:2a3f1d693cea6125dc30fc81efc3ee21.49644@mygate .mailgate.org Moving our existing ISS off to Venus L2 seems perfectly doable, although placing ISS at our moon's L1 would likely melt that sucker on the spot. Venus L2 is actually a bit on the cool side of things, whereas our moon's L1 (roughly 58,000 km away from the moon) is smoking hot and otherwise downright nasty most of the time, of which ISS simply isn't thermally suited nor otherwise sufficiently shielded. The nighttime season of Venus is also a little geothermally hot to the touch, but it's not technically too hot to manage, especially since there's unlimited local energy to burn (sort of speak). Unfortunately, I see that our warm and fuzzy Mailgate/Usenet spooks have made the subtopic "Corner Cube Reflectors on the Moon" or most any other negative NASA subtopic go away. I wonder what the heck there is to hide, or why Mailgate can't accommodate subtopics as intentional diversions caused by so many others. http://groups.google.com/group/talk....1fa0709905d932 Corner Cube Reflectors on the Moon, or simply a butt load of beer cans dumped onto that physically dark and nasty deck via robotics of whatever impact deployment isn't proof or any other form of replicated science on behalf of having walked on that moon. Sorry about that. Velikovsky/Neocatastrophism Sources (another stealth Mailgate topic) http://groups.google.com/group/rec.o...ec2528569a1d6f Of course, now Mailgate is entirely blocking most all of their "Mailgate: Message not available" topics, as though the crapolla of truth is hitting their really big infomercial damage control fan. I see that our warm and fuzzy Mailgate/Usenet spooks have made the topic "Laser off the Moon" vanish into less than thin air, as yet another one of those "Mailgate: Message not available". http://mygate.mailgate.org/mynews/sc...oo.co m&p=1/3 http://groups.google.com/group/sci.a...408b5c2de5160d In fact, most all of "rec.org.mensa" is becoming rather anti-topic/author worthy of being taboo/nondisclosure, as in banished into "Mailgate: Message not available" status. It seems our our Old Testament thumping faith based scientists are simply paranoid about damn near everything that rocks their status quo good ship LOLLIPOP, including their own shadows. At least terraforming our moon or simply digging into that salty sucker for obtaining a safe habitat is technically doable from within our own back yard of known expertise and resources, and best of all, we the badly bleeding taxpayers can keep a close eye upon where each and every one of our hard earned dollar is going. The ongoing notions of utlizing our moon as one of the supposed "Footsteps to Mars", sorry to say my ass, whereas I'm especially going naysay postal on this one, especially since we can't seem to mange the few and affordable steps on behalf of accomplishing our moon's L1, much less those rather spendy and somewhat lethal steps upon our naked moon. - For your continuing entertainment, I've further edited and hopefully improved upon the following rant as to what I and others should care the most about: Here's a little something extra special for Discovery Communications and/or GOOGLE/NOVA to ponder their pay-per-infomercial spewing way through. In other words, if I could pay as well as MI/NSA~NASA, they'd gladly produce whatever as though it was the one and only truth on Earth. Instead of our going for the absolutely daunting and unavoidably time comsuming as well as spendy task of our accomplishing the moon itself, perhaps instead we or perhaps China should simply go for taking the moon's L1 because, at least that's entirely doable and extremely valuable as a space depot and science platform. As I've often shared this one befo If we're ever going to walk upon that physically dark and nasty moon of ours that's via gravity tidal energy and a touch of IR/FIR keeping our environment as so anti-ice-age extra warm, as such we'll need the following basics for an earthshine illuminated mission that'll most likely demand some banked bone marrow and possibly a few spare stem cells in order to survive the mission gauntlet. In order to accomplish the moon, and live to tell about it, as such they'll need a fully mascon mapped moon, plus fully modulated (at least 8 bit computer fly-by-wire driven) set of those fuel consuming reaction thrusters (besides their modulated rated thrusters, this should only require butt loads of nifty sensors and a minimum of four extremely fast rad-hard computers), plus incorporating a few (at least three) powerful momentum reaction wheels, as well as having sufficient deorbit and down-range energy reserves, and something a whole lot better off than a wussy 60:1 ratio of primary rocket/payload that had nearly a 30% inert GLOW to start off with (that's not even including whatever spare tonnes of inital ice loading). Geoffrey A. Landis: Let me emphasize, the human lander is by far the hardest part of the Mars mission. A vehicle for getting down to the surface and back up again is the one piece that we have to develop from scratch. Everything else is, more or less, stuff we can put together from pieces that already have been developed. You folks out there in Usenet's dumbfounded land of snookered fools and village idiots do realize there's still no such proven fly-by-rocket lander as pilot rated and certified as crew safe and sane for accomplishing our extremely nearby moon, not even in R&D prototype format. However, there's still time to get in on that NASA contest of demonstrating the first such prototype fly-by-rocket lander. Unfortunately, thus far every known and what-if trick in the book hasn't worked out according to plan. Perhaps what they need are a few of those smart Jewish Third Reich rocket scientists, just like they had to work with way back in them good old mutually perpetrated cold-war days. BTW; On behalf of a relatively short mission exposure worth of defending their frail DNA and especially all of that radiation sensitive Kodak film could have used a minimum of 50 g/cm2 worth of shielding, though 100 g/cm2 would have been a whole lot safer for keeping their TBI mission dosage under 50 rads. Their having a personal cache of banked bone marrow back on Earth as their plan-B would also have been a damn wise thing to do, especially since the hundreds of rads per EVA should have been well past their bone marrow's point of no return. BTW No.2; Since there's no possible argument as to the DR(dynamic range) of their Kodak film having easily recorded Venus and our physically dark moon within the same FOV, therefore in whatever's your best 3D simulator format, where the heck is Venus as of missions A11, A14 and A16? (from EVA or from orbit) What if anything is stopping or in any way diverting the very same solar and cosmic energy plus whatever's physical flak from collecting upon and/or penetrating into the moon, as otherwise collects within our magnetosphere's Van Allen belts? Honest analogy; Shouldn't the gravity and robust substance of the moon itself sort of outperform our magnetosphere's ability to collect and hold onto such nasty solar and cosmic stuff? In addition to getting directly roasted and otherwise full-spectrum TBI by the sun and of whatever's cosmic, there's also the secondary IR/FIR energy that's potentially coming right at you from as many as each of those surrounding 3.14e8 m2, not to mention each of those square meters having their fair share of those local gamma and pesky hard-X-rays via secondary/recoil to share and share alike, and as for yourself in that wussy moonsuit to deal with. At any one time it was technically impossible for such lunar surface EVAs to have not been continually surrounded by a bare minimum of 3.14e6 m2, and of course from such a nearby orbit there's nothing but the physically dark and TBI dosage nasty moon to look at for as far as the DNA/RNA frail eye could see from being at 100+ km off the deck, and that's one hell of a solar/cosmic plus unavoidably secondary/recoil worth of TBI exposure to deal with, wouldn't you say? - NOM: "The level of cosmic radiation on the moon is barely different from the radiation at the International Space Station. They seem to manage space walks there OK." From what I can learn, they/ISS actually do NOT manage very well at all, whereas ISS EVAs tend to be relatively short and those EVAs still tend to devour into their 50 rad per mission and subsequently impact upon their career 500 rad dosage limits real fast, and at that they have to avoid the SAA-05 contour like the worst known plague. The solar wind that's extensively diverted by those nifty though lethal Van Allen belts do accomplish a fairly good job of defending ISS from the otherwise L1 naked trauma of solar and cosmic influx, and besides the ISS itself doesn't hardly represent significant density or any amount of secondary/recoil square meters compared to the bare minimum of 3.14e6 m2 that's existing for the moon landing and EVAs, along with easily receiving as much as 3.14e8 m2 worth of exposure to all that's reactive and/or radioactive as being entirely possible. A deployed ISS/(Clarke Station) at our moon's L1 would actually be as much as 97.6% solar and otherwise nearly 100% cosmic nailed, but instead our existing ISS is nearly 50% shielded from whatever's solar or cosmic via Earth and rather nicely protected by a substantial magnetosphere, whereas because of Earth's thin but extensive enough atmosphere is hardly the least bit reactive substance like our naked moon that's covered in heavy meteorite debris and of it's own considerable density that makes for producing secondary/recoil dosage that apparently isn't the least bit moderated by way of an atmosphere. http://www.lpi.usra.edu/publications...aryland01b.pdf This fancy enough "Clarke Station" document that's rather interesting but otherwise a touch outdated, not to mention way under-shielded for long term habitat unless incorporating 8+ meters of water plus having somehow established an artificial magnetosphere, or perhaps 16+ meters of h2o if w/o magnetosphere that's necessary because it's parked within 58,000 km from our physically dark and otherwise highly reactive moon that's providing the not so DNA friendly TBI(total body irradiation) dosage worth of gamma and hard-X-rays that are only a touch worse off by lunar day, is simply a downright deficient document about sharing upon all the positive science and habitat/depot considerations for others utilizing the moon's L1/MEL1. As for any mission command module orbiting our moon from 100 km isn't exactly playing it DNA/RNA safe, nor more than half the time is it representing a cool orbit or even all that mascon free of all those pesky side to side and ups and downs because for its size the moon's gravity is so irregular (possibly suggesting a badly distorted hallow core). There is however a fairly substantial sodium atmosphere that reaches out past 9r (not to mention the comet like sodium trail of some 900,000 km), but apparently it's not of sufficient density from 100 km down to the deck as to significantly moderate the incoming or outgoing trauma of gamma and hard-X-rays. Therefore, just the secondary IR/FIR has got to be downright mission pesky to deal with, especially considering how efficiently our moon reflects the IR and FIR spectrum, and the matter of fact that it has to get rid of all of whatever it receives, which means that a good 50% of the solar influx is getting returned to the same sunny half side of space that a given mission orbiting its command module has to survive while getting summarily roasted and otherwise TBI traumatised from both directions, plus a little of whatever's earthshine and of good old cosmic whatever else to boot. On behalf of moderating whatever's incoming as well as unavoidably of secondary/recoil outgoing radiation, what our naked moon environment needs rather badly is an artificially forced atmosphere of almost any sort, even if it's mostly co2 and a touch Radon toxic. - Brad Guth -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |
