  2. FFS! Can the person who p!ssed in Corvus's Coco-Pops this morning please just apologise, so that we can carry on with the awesomeness that is this thread?
  3. Carl Sagan's entire "Pale Blue Dot" for context... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5c59qUUnAY&t=0s&list=LLd2_dnlNA7LzgJIc-PM4ofQ&index=3
  4. Best looking one so far imo
  5. Looks good, but unfortunately not. It's a special edition livery, and they will unveil a "race-ready" livery in Barcelona

  7. Tried the shoe lace method the other day when I was in a bind on the trail. That thing did not want to budge, so that KMC tool looks like a great option.
  8. Ha ha, it does. I should've brought bikes and/or d!cks into mine
  9. Thanks for the additional information, and completely agree about the exorbitant costs of Apollo, and although extremely high, one cannot underestimate the scientific, technological and social benefits of the Apollo program. I'm also fully aware of the Mercury Program that preceded Apollo, but as far as I understand this basically became a support program to Apollo (although not initially so as it ran for 3 years before Apollo was announced), and particularly Gemini, which was established after Kennedy announced a mission to the moon. I think both Gemini and Apollo were established in '61, with Gemini established to develop the flight capabilities for Apollo. Gemini and Mercury were the support acts, Apollo was the main concert.
  10. Hadn't really heard much of Gary Clark Jr, and also started on that rabbit hole on Youtube. Came across this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0cy3HsrN0Vw
  11. That was awesome!
  12. The Apollo program was basically at the beginning of NASA, and laid the foundation for all other programs after that. So it's going to be the most expensive. Everything that was learnt, and the technology that was developed during Apollo program would have helped the rest of the programs be comparatively cheaper.
  13. Maybe that's why they wanted to get away
  14. Your laptop? https://www.computerworld.com/article/2525898/app-development/nasa-s-apollo-technology-has-changed-history.html
  15. That's the one. Man of many talents that
  16. I believe it was Albert Eistein
  17. NASA must be as sick of this one as with the the flat-earthers trolling their Facebook
