Re: The Cold Equations

>NASA wants 105 billion and 12 years to build their parachute/capsules.
Besides sustaining their ruse/sting of the century by wagging their
perpetrated cold-war dogs to death, it's called brown-nosed *** saving
and thus job security.

Titanium alloys and of insulative basalt composites are each way too
complicated to work with, as they can't even manage to keep foam
attached to their shuttle ET, or ceramic tiles glued upon their
extremely old and inefficient aluminum shuttles.

Not that this is best suited for the higher temperatures:
A super-alloy of Nickel and Titanium, this metallic composition has
superelasticity having a property which is described as remembering
its shape, so a change of temperature will make it spring back into
the shape it was.

Perhaps a little inconel/titanium or tungsten/titanium super-alloy
composite is best suited for mastering the upper end of being thermally
tolerant without losing too much of the structural performance
capabilities.

Inconel-625 Melting Point/Range: 1290-1350°C (2350-2460°F)
Tungsten, W, 74 - Melting point 3695 K 3422°C (6192°F)
Titanium, Ti, 22 - Melting point 1941 K 1668°C (3034°F)

Obviously there's no way our troops are setting a moonsuit boot upon
the moon. Whereas China or perhaps Russia will soon manage to do just
that if they're not too busy with mutually constructing their
LSE-CM/ISS.

Kurt Vonnegut would have to agree far beyond; WAR is WAR, thus "in war
there are no rules" - In fact, war has been the very reason of honest
folks having to deal with the likes of others that haven't been playing
by whatever the supposed rules, such as our resident warlord(GW Bush).
