Anonymous Coward User ID: 77181987 04/23/2021 02:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | An intimate interview with Scott Kelly: [link to www.youtube.com (secure)] A few months ago, Scott Kelly, American astronaut, gave an interview to an "irrelevant" journalist. Although it has not been publicized, the intelligent depth of the answers, despite the understandable limitations to tell "everything he knows", is a testimony of remarkable value. In a scant 28 minutes, Scott Kelly says more than he keeps quiet, and, keeps quiet more than he says. I have only one phrase to describe this superlative human being: what a true moral example you are! Greetings. Laio . |

I appreciated todays especially since I'd never seen that jellyfish effect-I honestly thought it had blown up. I also was able to see the boosters coming down to the ocean to land. It's just cool. Not everything needs to be looked at through a skeptical lens. It's OK just to enjoy watching something because it's beautiful. :Jay: you really believe space jellifish prove that a rocket was actually launched Have you heard of special effects The Russians have supposedly been launching rockets to the space station for years now--no-one ever got excited about them Why launches at night Easier to fake Special effects? You can see it in person. The "jellyfish" effect is because it was launched towards the east right before dawn. The rocket rose into sunlight, illuminating the exhaust. I filmed it myself. By the way, I also filmed the first stage descending back into earth's shadow just before its entry burn. Meanwhile the second stage continued to stay in sunlight because it continued to climb in altitude instead... rockets cant reverse land vertically at most all you're seeing is an empty rocket take off Once over the horizon it crashes into the sea the rest is CGI why is it that every space x footage always has a big edit right in the middle--then they always cut-away to the control room or some reporter why not show the whole flight uninterrupted--with drones & on-board cameras |

The few comments he has made about living with his Russian colleagues have always been discreet and protocol. The "good feeling" is the first requirement to be on the ISS: Scott Kelly has not had any bad feelings with a Russian cosmonaut; however, he has been aware that he could hear the shouting of two Russian guys who could not stand each other. So, in order for there to be harmony, when Kelly was there, he had to learn how to deal with people. In all the interviews, Scott Kelly mentions Genady Padalka as the cosmonaut who has been in space the longest, and nothing else. A, Kornienko, as his brother from another mother. why? Padalka was uploaded to the ISS, in order to have a professional, with unimpeachable experience, and, not, a bungler: USA has 100 astronauts ready to meet expectations; Russia, is content, with using 20 cosmonauts of the new generation. This new generation of Russian cosmonauts will have to learn from Novitsky, Skripochka, Shkaplerov, Ivanishin. They are the remaining masters. Of course, there will never be a cosmonaut missing: a guy who has not yet understood that speaking fluent English is a benefit for mother Russia. However, it is pathetic to hear a cosmonaut who does not know how to speak fluent English. Because, I assure you, there are enough professionals, who hear, everything you babble. So, as Padalka says, to have something to do in space, you have to stop being an idiot, who gets paid 3 times more per year than the NASA manager. Because, the director of Roscosmos, and this is not propaganda, earns 3 times more than the director of NASA, who earns about 130000 dollars a year. Rogozdin is earning, about 340000 dollars a year, for, continuing, to, do, nothing. |

We have no evidence that they have or will, and reams, nay mountains of evidence against this.

That is not possible, unless the satellites are in the exact same location......... I take issue with you saying it is all CGI anymore. Because the same rockets taking satellite s to space are the same rockets taking people to space. It is not CGI. What is a spaceplane? There is not enough air in space for a plane. What's the point. They are all just rockets. Rockets fight weight. The less weight the less fuel needed. Why use a single stage rocket and waste more fuel? As for food and resources there are lots of resources. Mine asteroids and ship the products home. As for people truly living in space I think that is a long way away. Robotics and mining is the way to go but if Elon wants to live on Mars let him try. They are advancing the way for the rest of us even if we do not want to go to space. As for satellites being in the same spot, have you heard about geostationary satellites? From your perspective they are mostly stationary. Last Edited by Achduke7 on 04/24/2021 10:13 AM Achduke |
