Excellent information. "countless setbacks". More like a handful, all of which were overcome very quickly by the SpaceX engineers and technicians on the way to Falcon 9 Block 5, the SpaceX launch vehicle masterpiece. Falcon 9 met and won two of the most important challenges for the SpaceX Mars enterprise: Supersonic retropropulsion and vertical landing of an orbital class launch vehicle, i.e. the F9 booster. Those milestones were accomplished over eight years ago (22Dec2015).

i messed with this in kerbal. adding parachutes and other recovery systems adds weight and reduces delta v meaning the rocket wont go as far and it can be drastic and also more expensive. the most efficient thing to do is strip it all down bare then do a little burn close to the surface.. youll have more fuel to do it because you saved it by cutting weight. adding a couple parachutes could be the difference of not having the fuel you otherwise would have had.

Slight correction of the landing process. In the final burn for landing, its not "the engines", last burn is the single central engine. And its a single engine, because even at minimum thrust, its still too high to hover.

Much more solid and viable than 15 launches. Moreover mars I am convinced will require nuclear cruise, not just CH4. Just my opinions, I think spacex people are great, but I feel confused about that.

@ColinDaviesNZ 3 місяці тому

The heat shield comment appears erroneous. The first burn of the stage 1 on reentry bleeds of speed to about Mach 8. This is at about 60k altitude. Then it reduces its speed to about Mach 3. It is a combination of speed and atmospheric density that causes the serious re-entry heat. So if you re-enter at a slow enough speed it is possible to avoid reentry burnout. The maths are also that after the top stage is lost and the most of the fuel spent, the total mass needed to deaccelerate is a lot less.

The Chinese- not sure if it’s government or private- have plans for recovering boosters via catching them with an array of cables suspended above a platform.

@@EntropyConcept Really like the multiple tactic approach. Have seen the helicopter attempt. Looked really dangerous. Still a drone copter with a dedicated design might work.

It's too bad that there's a limit on the number of qualified technicians to execute all the plausible ideas !

@youerny Місяць тому

When you need to pump fluids the best tool is .. a pump. Then you can implement it with different methods, but turbine cycles are more thermodynamic efficient. Then there is the choose for throwing away part of the fuel and exhaust or reuse them (open vs close cycles). The second considerably more tricky. Then after launch options open for more propulsion methods in cruise phase, such as ion or thermal nuclear. But that’s another chapter completely

@clavo3352 Місяць тому

@@youerny I like this reply. TY. Your ion allusion is most interesting though.
