6month and i am still waiting for the " #genocide", maybe #israel doesnt have the tools for a real #warcrime in #gaza, besides mistakenly bombing the wrong target? or maybe, there is no such thing intended? could it be, that israel just tries to destroy #hamas, which launches #rockets and hides itz #troops in #civil areas and causes the dead #civilians / #collateralDamage?

A unique video was shared by Palestinian resistance showing how they put together a home made rocket (Sorayya Al-Quds) in #Gaza.

It is the first such video shared by Palestinians in many months, and it's not possible to know time and date of the video or it's location since all meta data was removed from it before sharing it on a telegram channel.

The video was then broadcasted on Al Jazeera. The original video is much longer and has lots of propaganda before and after the AlJazeera clip.

Canada considers sending decommissioned air-to-ground rockets to Ukraine

Canada's opposition Conservative Party asked the government to send tens of thousands of decommissioned rockets to Ukraine instead of destroying them, CBC reported on Feb. 2.

The Canadian Defense Ministry has confirmed that the donation is under consideration.

The Canadian Armed Forces reportedly store 83,303 CRV7 air-to-ground unguided rockets, which were introduced in the 1970s and taken out of service in the early 2000s.

While Ottawa signed a contract three years ago to dispose of the rockets, the Conservatives believe they could still be of use in Ukraine.

"It's time for less talk and more action," said Pierre Poilievre, the leader of the opposition and the Conservative Party's chief.

"Instead of making Canadians pay millions of dollars to decommission these weapons," he said they should be provided to "Ukraine, who can use them in the defense of sovereignty."

The United States has criticized Iran's satellite launch

The #US claims that the same #rockets used to launch satellites into #space can also be used to carry nuclear warheads.

The US intelligence community asserts that if Iran has the ability to reliably and consistently send satellites into space, then they probably also have the technology of an #ICB

PS. Who cares that Iran doesn't have nuclear weapons, just that it can be loaded on the Qased rocket is enough for US to condemn it.

Human Space Travel to Moon and Mars - one more step for mankind - Reusable Renewable Rockets are the way to the Space future

one more step for mankind

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemis_program

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artemis_program

IN NO WAY shall the accomplishments of the year 1969 be belittled, OR the Space Shuttle ($1.5 billion per flight), but imho what is happening NOW at NASA is a complete waste of money.

NASA has run out of Saturn V.

Instead of designing a re-usable rocket from scratch, they build a Saturn V like rocket called SLS (with 1990s parts) that is supposed to take people to Moon and Mars for “only” $2billion per launch.

NASA MUST BE KIDDING!

This catastrophic waste of taxpayers money can be explained in one sentence: “Trump’s controversial NASA chief, Jim Bridenstine, narrowly confirmed”

Estimates are that a Starship flight will be ~$2Million per launch.

At the same time there is pressure & lobbying going on from Boing & others to not give SpaceX the whole pie of money for future space missions 🙈

What is ESA doing on this topic?

nationalism & political fallout: So every country needs it’s own space station now?

Just to proof a point “because we can, if we throw a lot of money and resources at it”. Well, yes every country could do that then, but does it make sense? Can not a lot of money be saved by working together?

China already has it’s own space station in orbit, usually manned by three persons.

The ISS came into trouble, because Russia’s space agency Roscosmos supplied boost to the ISS via Soyuz to keep it up in orbit.

Without regular boosts, the ISS is designed to “deorbit” (break down and dissolve in a fiery melt down in Earth’s atmosphere).

Next to supply & person transport, SpaceX could take over that task too. (any craft with fuel left over)

“The (ISS) station was formed after a Russian space module joined with an American module in 1998.”

Another milestone in ending the cold war 1.0 and coming to a (more or less) peacefull cooperation between the two rivaling countries.

“Construction was completed in 2011”

“According to NASA’s report in July 2020, a total of 242 individuals from 19 different countries have managed to travel to the ISS” (src: republicworld.com)

“But the station will require fuel and maintenance to continue operations. In December 2021, the Biden administration announced it would continue ISS cooperation through 2030.”

“Private companies like Axiom Space and Blue Origin are currently developing their own replacement stations, and Roscosmos plans to launch its own station in 2025. The Indian Space Research Organization indicated in 2019 that it may skip the ISS entirely, with plans to launch a 20-tonne space station.” (src: inverse.com)
