For those of you in the LA area - I'm going to be speaking and performing a DJ set at Yuri's night this Saturday:

Here's my DJ Set from The Vulcan last week featuring lots of space footage synced to music, I'm posting it on my second channel because it's basically all copyrighted work....

ULA has built its last Delta rocket, the production line is shutting down and that brings to an end a long line of rockets which go back to the 1950s

Since I'm talking about Hakuto-R's failure it's interesting to go back and look at the other 2 failed landings in recent years:

Yesterday a scientist discovered strong evidence for ongoing volcanic activity on Venus by looking at 30 year old radar data from the Magellan spacecraft, this was launched back in 1989, and was one of only 3 interplanetary spacecraft launched on the Shuttle, the only one which didn't go to Jupiter.
Magellan was also the only one which was approved after the space shuttle came into service, both Ulysses and Galileo began development in the 1970's.
In a sad coincidence yesterday the principle investigator for the VERTAS mission to Venus revealed that the project is effectively on hold as NASA is only giving the funding to keep the science staff working, NASA wants JPL to finish Psyche and conclude that investigation before proceeding with another spacecraft.

NASA's budget includes $180million to develop the plan for the end of the ISS in 2030, deorbiting the station into the Pacific. There already is a plan which has been extensively studied, involving 3 Progress spacecraft, but in light of relations with Russia it's reasonable for the US to make its own investigation.
Of course, I like to point out that any orbital tug which could drop the ISS down could do a fine job of raising it to a higher orbit and preserving its legacy for the future.

I keep seeing people claiming land speed records in Kerbal Space Program 2.
They're still falling short.

Check Out Those Awful frame rates in Kerbal Space Program!
Yes.... it's my first KSP video posted back in 2011, where I decide to show rockets built from some modded parts disintegrating into parts, by design. This was run on an AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ system with 3 gigs of memory. I remember building this machine on my first day working at Imeem.com in 2004, and when it was retired I took it home.
The processor was one of the first X86-64 CPUs, while Intel was trying to launch their IA64 architecture AMD decided to simply extend the X86 architecture in a logical manner, in the end AMD's design won out

Here's a photo from a twitter thread showing the internals when I got rid of it

Some more screenshots from KSP2, and some notes from the developers for what to expect.

Scott Manley is someone who fell into youtube because he felt a deep compelling need to teach people orbital mechanics and rocket science so they could play Kerbal Space Program, now, years later the gaming videos are less important and the pure science is the main thrust. My degrees are all in Physics and Astronomy, so much of the rocket science and engineering I've learned is self taught, always learning, always teaching.
I'm not a professional youtuber, I have a day job in software development which means I won't take lame sponsored content, or tell you to sign up for affiliate services to make a quick buck. However lots of generous people have asked to support my hobby via Patreon and I'm grateful to those individuals.
Also occasionally shares cute videos of his kids.
