That is not correct. To actually end up in an orbit with both higher apoapsis and periapsis another collision would need to happen higher upp, which then would raise the periapsis. Otherwise it would simply be an elliptic orbit still passin

Not really. Coordination takes resources, doesn't scale and increases the risk of human error. A predefined set of rules making encounters predictable are way better. Like we have done for ships [0] and aircraft [1]. Any time you have

Aiming for 20 ms later this year. (Elon time) A bigger dish would not lower latency but may increase signal strength leading to better throughput. But it's not a simple parabolic antenna. It is the first consumer oriented phased array

They also generate their own gravity using ullage motors. This gives us very different profiles regarding the time constraints.

Surprisingly much of the commercial style SOLAS equipment still sadly runs on NMEA 0183. It is a real hassle if you have a split system with some converters not liking each other, different baud rates for "high speed(!!!)" and so

On commercial vessels it's simply linked through NMEA 0183. Heading information usually are provided by either a gyro compass, gps compass or fluxgate compass. Depending on size of vessel, legal requirements and so on.

Can you show me a source for your claim that it has increased? Here's another graph for the energy mix over time, with coal not changing at all. This time from the government energy agency. See page 5. http://energimyndighet

With HVDC and UHVDC lines there are progress on the transmission front. The main question though is the economical race between geographically decoupling your renewable power supply versus storage, this is something we will see play out in

Either way, in almost every online discussion I see the term base load is used in the wrong context. Base load exists on the consumer side, as the minimum power the grid needs to operate during a cycle of X hours/days/weeks/y

Yes, 2-3 weeks longer around Africa. The price to pass through the Suez Canal is made to be slightly lower than the cost of going around to extract as much value from the canal as possible.

Rebuilding the entire drive train between each lift. The spec says 20 tons in regular operations. Maybe some more switching fuel for payload, but then you need to spend more time refueling and transiting.

The drawings are not at all to scale making it hard to comprehend the issue. The ship has a draft of 16m. the canal is 24m deep in the 121m wide fairway, quickly becoming shallower outside. This allows for the navigation of ships with up to

Not at all for Starlink. The orbits are low enough to decay within 5-10 years if they are left without station keeping. Remember, "space" does not start at the karman line, it is a continuous transition. Although, they have a lice

The main issue is that the largest cost of a nuclear power plant is the capital investment to build it and staff to run it, which is fixed. In comparison fuel costs seem to hover at about 25%. Therefore you need to run your plant at about f
