And I think I read that there are still something like 70 single points of failure left.well.... also, the drop into l2. Which oddly, is one of the easier things.
I assume so, yeah.When do they start collimating the mirrors? When everything cools off to nearly 0k, right?
Um... what precisely isn't science?I assume so, yeah.
It's neat, cool, and somewhat counterintuitive that the hot side of the thing is 130F. Science is awesome.
The whole damn thing is science fkr.Um... what precisely isn't science?
Rephrase: Science is just knowledge
Im not sure where I was going with this.
Also that's how an umbrella works. The part I find interesting is it's basically still 1970s tech (it's basically the same sunshield that was on Skylab in 1974)
No, that's engineering.The whole damn thing is science fkr.
Engineering just colors in the science.No, that's engineering.
The telescope enables actual science, but there's not a lot of pure science that went directly into putting that bitch out there.
Christ ENGINEERING IS SCIENCE.Engineering just colors in the science.
Ermg, did filling a volume of space with a volume of liquid not have philosophical consequences?I filled my gas tank today. SCIENCE!
Science is formulating a hypothesis then testing it against reality, and either accepting or rejecting the hypothesis.Ermg, did filling a volume of space with a volume of liquid not have philosophical consequences?
Sometimes I don't even stay in the lines. SCIENCE!YOU JUST COLORRRRRRRRRRRRRR
