What other options does Elon Musk have for future Starship launches

As we recently reported, SpaceX, founded by multi-billionaire Elon Musk, is the subject of a lawsuit over the destruction and environmental hazards caused by the launch of the world’s largest Starship rocket.

Elon Musk has announced that the upcoming launch will take place within two months at the most. The question is where Starship will start, as the lawsuit filed by environmental groups could last two to five years. And, in theory, everything is on hold until then, at least at the base in Boca Chica, Texas.

Environmental impact studies, which SpaceX did not provide to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) when it received its launch license, will also take several years. Hence all the commotion.

One option would be the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, Reuters said, but officials there have already shown reluctance. Although the Boca Chica base was intended only for test launches, and the Kennedy Space Center was to be the site from which the official launch took place, officials fear that the destruction caused by the Starship tests will affect the programs that carry astronauts to international space station.

The Vandenberg base in California is also no match for such a huge rocket as Starship. Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia is too small. In addition, they would also like environmental impact studies, and SpaceX not only does not have them, but also cannot afford to wait until they are ready. Camden Spaceport in Georgia has similar problems.

The idea is that Starship must deliver astronauts to the moon in 2026 as the space race with China heats up and NASA must stick to its schedule if it wants to keep up. And since there are fewer and fewer options, decisions need to be made urgently.

Obviously, there is also an option for Congress to make a radical decision, given all the givens of the equation. But that remains to be seen.

Collect money to be happier!

Married couples in which spouses have opened joint bank accounts are much happier than those who have not yet done so. We have this discovery that could improve your health after reading a study published in the Journal of Consumer Research.

The authors, researchers at Indiana University in the US, have had a hunch for a while, so they thought they’d put it to the test scientifically. Thus, they contacted 230 couples and asked them to allow themselves to be monitored. By the way, the partners got married relatively recently, and the researchers observed them for two years. Such were the conditions.

It turned out that those couples who chose a joint bank account had much happier relationships over two years than those who chose separate accounts. In the middle, the researchers say, will be the transparency and sense of security that one partner offers the other.

The fact that some couples have a shared reserve will make them more complete than those who share costs from this point of view. For example, I pay for maintenance, you are the market. The quoted authors say that the second option is more of a business relationship, rather than long-term kissing.

And one more thing, the average income of the couple was about $50,000 a year, which is not a very large amount for an American couple. Here is how it is explained. Otherwise, if we think that one is a millionaire and the other is only married for his money, there may be a problem with the joint account. But in the end you will become dollar millionaires and then let us know as a joint account to complete the scientific research.

We finally learned what the interior of the Moon is made of. And no, it’s not made of cheese

You can sit back, you don’t have to worry anymore, you don’t have to worry about questions anymore, because we have the answer to what’s bothering you. More precisely, we found out what the interior of the Moon is made of. This was not done by us, but by a team of French researchers from the CNRS (Centre national de la recherche scientifique). He even published the results in the journal Nature to let everyone know.

Thus, by measuring the acoustic waves that occur during earthquakes on the Moon, French scientists were able to draw a conclusion about the composition of the Moon’s interior. He turned out to be similar to Terra. Proportionally speaking, the Moon has a solid core with a radius of approximately 258 kilometers. It is surrounded by an outer core, which is liquid and has a radius of about 362 kilometers. In total, this is almost 15% of the total radius of the Moon.

The French team was also able to calculate that the density of the core is almost 7,882 kilograms per cubic meter. That is, such as the density of iron. This will help researchers better understand how much the moon’s magnetic field is weakening. Yes, soon after the formation of our natural satellite had a strong magnetic field. It began to shrink about 3.2 billion years ago, and no one knows why.

Obviously, everything depends on the excitation of the nucleus and its movement. And now we are one step closer to solving the mystery. Hooray! Tell me you don’t feel better when you find out all this!
