  • Its not great, but not nearly as bad as Challenger SRB O-rings.

    I was speaking more from the managerial and not the engineering point of view, when I made that comment about the vibes. How management politics underplayed problems until a disaster happened

    My point still stands though. If the leak grows large during the trip, and all the helium escapes, then they can’t maneuver the craft, which means they can’t get at the right angle to reenter the atmosphere without burning up.

    And if the shuttle tiles situation tells us anything, they don’t take everything with them up into space, to do on-site emergency repairs.

    Even if they brought extra helium with them, if the leak is widened (launch vibrations, etc.) to a point where the helium escapes too quickly now, before the whole reentry sequence completes, then they’re stuck.

    Just feels like driving a car across the Mojave Desert, with a known tire leak, and hoping the leak doesn’t get any worse. Feels like a ‘roll of the dice’ moment.

    They’re really not that obnoxious. The folks getting their panties in wads about it are either fools, or astroturfers. You do you chief, and I for one support this. Folks get overly triggered about all sorts of stupid little shit, don’t let them get you down. Someday soon a bunch of us will probably wish we did something like what you’re doing.

    Appreciate the kind words.

    Yeah I’m still calming down from having to do battle with this Lemmy user, but I plan on keep adding the license to my comments, as at this point it just feels like the right thing to do.

    I might change the wording though to how you worded it, seems more intuitive for people to understand, than listing the actual Creative Commons license code/name.
