I think it’s time for a big Trump Resort out in space. I’m guessing the liberals wouldn’t like that too much.
The TRUMP ORBITAL.
How many people out there would spend a million dollars or so for a trip to low earth orbit? Only the government.
The price will come down drastically after the first few years. I'm sure its just a matter of time before space travel of some sort becomes fairly routine.
This is why we need Spacex’s Crewed Dragon up and running ASAP. Test launch with no crew it set for January, but this might mess that up. Not sure if they need anyone inside to dock with a new system. The Boeing CST-100 is also coming online next year, so they’re coming, but hopefully not too late.
Trump will retire from being president in 2025, so perhaps that will be his retirement hobby business... you know, just to keep busy and stuff. He's not the sort to just stop and sit in a recliner for the rest of his life.
Was the soyuz checked for “extra” holes drilled into it yet ???
From the folks wearing wire harnesses to simulate floating in space, to videos showing bubbles rising as they are walking in space (the bubbles as proof it's really being shot inside a pool), to actual pieces of green screens being used for the video footage.
He is only charging the US GOVT $45 million per launch vs the $140 million that the Russians are billing us, and they are very mad at him!
But what they would want even more is to fully take it over and turn it into a weapon platform, while also using it for their own research.
Many people would not be sleeping comfortable at nights if they ever got to place a nuke weapon platform into space, and I'm very sure that the Russians would balk at that too!
The thought of 100 Chinese nuke warheads, each with 300 KT, orbiting just 250 miles over my head, is totally unacceptable! Where are the 56 fabled Solar Warden spaceships that the USA is supposed have?
Actually not - only the ‘planned end’ (funding end) not the actual end (physical deterioration) - they were in the process of expanding the station
Looking for holes was part of the spacewalk mission for the two new guys.
Good Grief!
Don’t feed the Space Troll.
There are treaties that prohibit that. Sanctions for that would put the Chinese out of business and starving in short order. No one in the world would tolerate that.
Space Troll - interesting concept/label
Your “lot of folks” are idiots. You can go outside on a clear night and see the ISS with your own eyes.
“I think it’s time for a big Trump Resort out in space. I’m guessing the liberals wouldn’t like that too much.”
Will be interesting to see what the golf course would look like.
