I can't speak for biologists but judging from the overwhelming silence from
the supposed users of the microgravity research and the immense cost of the
space station I would judge that the life sciences aspect is something NASA
dreamed up.  Actually, if you look at the history of the shuttle I don't
think NASA has been real interested in biology in the past.  The general
criticism (which I think is more than fair) of the space station is that
it is a solution in search of a problem.  Solutions in search of a problem
are the NORM for electrical engineering but in this case the solution costs
30 billion dollars so it makes you wonder just whose problem (taxpayers) and
whose solution ( greedy aerospace companies ) it is.

So what?  Blooming is a function of energy-density, too.  7 watts/meter-squared

I'm not sure what a 'bogosity meter' is, but I reckon it's a phrase you draw up
whenever you don't have a real answer.
Point being that what was said about rockets being more efficient in the later
stages of a trip is neither 'ignorant' or 'careless', but rather; QUITE TRUE.
No wonder you won't bother to 'pick it apart'.

Sunlight does bloom, as does starlight, aurora light, light pollution, etc.
Just ask the guys that paid for the hubble scope (since it was supposed to
get, literally, above the blooming problem).
Also, questions which you seemed to have missed are;

At what wavelengths is blooming less of a problem?
What's the best power density at a particular wavlength which does not bloom?
WHat is the altitude/blooming function?

Nonesense.  Of course it will.  Both need to transmit high amounts of energy
via an electromagnetic beam which has been focused on a target of tiny angular
size.  To claim otherwise is to prove the need for sanity checks yourself.

He may be talking through his hat, but as far as material strengths are
concerned, there is no practical tether material (for lifting from the surface)
His lack of thourough research does not change the fundamental problem.

NOT-SO-STANDARD DISCLAIMER:
I realize that it's somewhat rude to get in the middle of a flame war, and even
encourage it to some extent, but I do have justification;

Rather than pointing out what was incorrect, or providing information to the
other party, you seem to feel it's ok to (try to) insult/belittle someone for
making a factual error or expressing an idea you don't like / disagree with.

Doing this is not only lame in it's own right, and possibly embarrasing for the
perpatrator, but encourange others to do it (like me), which ultimately adds
only hard feelings and hindered communications to the discussion, and takes up
lots of disk space that could be utilized in much better ways.

It's especially worthy of ridicule when you are doing exactly what you are
flaming someone else for doing!
For example, claiming someone is ignorant while being quite ignorant yourself.
Or saying they should read up on something that you're talking through your hat
about, too.
Or calling for sanity checks while invoking irellevant facts.

P.S. maybe I'm wasting space, but I feel that keeping the flak and not-so-
     friendly sparring to a minimum is important.  Especially since, by the
     nature of my abrasive personality, I find it so easy to join in.

     And I just don't have the time.

Yeah, but the couple of years disruption might turn into no more launchers
from the USSR, and then where would we be?  No heavy lift vehicle, and
nothing in the pipeline.  Or when we get dependant on them for the space station
   , what's to keep them from raising prices to soak 'those evil capitalists'
when we really need to keep crew members alive.

No... its a bad idea and I'm sorry I even mentioned it!

I feel much more comfortable with US made space hardware.

Incidentally, to those who feel the USSR wouldn't do that, I'd hasten to point
out the growing power of the 'hardliners' who still denounce us as the root
of their ills, and as  evil capitalists.

There is nothing in what I have said which precludes halting progress in
launch technology. You must understand that using the latest technology in
almost any operational system is a kiss of death. If we learn nothing from
the Shuttle, let's at least learn that. You want research? I agree, let's
do research. But at the same time, let's build our operational systems
with mature well understood technology. Saturn fits that bill much better
than ALS (although not as well as HL Delta or Titan V).

You want more recent technology in the Saturns? So do I. That is why we
need a program of continuous improvement to get it in. Want the very
latest materials used? Fine. Start an effort to build a composit nozzle
if you like. When it works, we add it to the existing design.

>(Also, much of the Saturn would have to be redesigned making it more
>of a Saturn VI than a Saturn V)

Just most of the tooling. The design of the launcher itself is already
there. That means we would need to do more testing than if we had the
tooling but still less than with ALS. Knowing the basic design works is
half the battle.

>We would lose the edge we have in Aerospace by making compromises of this sort.

IMHO by using our technology to build cheaper launchers we free up money
for research. This is how we will keep our edge in aerospace. Given a choice
between cheap products which work and expensive ones which don't work people
select the cheaper ones. This is why the Shuttle was such a disaster and why
ALS will be a disaster.

>The Saturn was an excellent rocket for its time.

The Saturn is also an outstanding rocket by our times. It lifts five times
what anything we have can lift and for a hell of a lot less per pound. Id
did it without fail or delay.

What other measure for excellence can there be?

>We CAN do better.

We have yet to do so. Nothing on the drawing boards will do so.

I can't imagine getting it back to earth in any way... what we might be able
to do as an intermediate step between sending a comsat and doing nothing is
to launch a repair craft (or spare antenna 8-( on an rendezvous trajectory as
Galileo flys by in 1992.


Sending a com relay to Jupiter is probably overkill.  Sending one into a near-
Jovian transfer (with a few-year window of communications ability) would
be lower del-V and a lot cheaper.  [crank up them skunk works, ed...]

I'm doing a paper on geosynchronous satellites for a course here, and am
looking for relevant information on the topic.  Two main things I need to find
are 1) the number of objects in geosynchronous orbit, and 2) theories on how to
get a burned out satellite out of geo-orbit.
This isn't a joke; it's a term paper.
Hope to get some responses from you soon.

So badly behind schedule that the government fudged on its airworthiness
certificate.  The craft had *never* been tested at full speed before it
departed on its maiden voyage!

And a certain amount of justice in that the VIP fatality list included
many of those responsible for the disaster in the first place, both at
the political and technical levels.

Another designer who worked on it was N. S. Norway, alias Nevil Shute.
His memoir of this part of his life is called Slide Rule, and is almost
certainly still in paperback print.  It's well worth reading.

(Some bookstores that carry it may put it with Shute's fiction.  I don't
know who publishes it in North America; I got my copy while overseas.)
