Comment on NASA’s Mercury Mission Yields Global Maps, New Science Data by rickray777

Well, for one thing, it is just so exciting to see such an elusive and mysterious planet unveiled in all its glory! All of the evidence that we have seen on the other planets, moons, and so on seem to suggest a massive cataclysmic event that took place early on in our Solar System’s formation. One particularly perplexing question is: why does such a small planet as Mercury have such a large and dense core? It may be that continued imaging and other measurements will continue to provide additional clues on all of this.

Comment on New Private Launch System Unveiled by Mike Mackowski

Looks like a somewhat larger Pegasus. But also does not look like it can take much payload to orbit. It almost looks like a Dragon capsule but that rocket doesn’t seem large enough to take it to LEO.

That looks like an expendable launch vehicle to me. Is that right?

Comment on Space Elevator for the Moon Proposed by Micah

Why would we waste so much time and money to build a space elevator on the moon… First. This idea makes no sense. If we have the technology to build an elevator to space, start at earth. Saves money over time. Larger payloads would be available. Then, after the earth elevator is complete we can build an elevator on the moon, a mid point space station in between the two, a whole host of other things that make more sense than trying to build something that has never been built before in conditions that are less than ideal.

Comment on Mars Rover Ready for Red Planet Duties by Rick Steele

Leonard:

Mars or Bust! Also: mars and/or Bust!

Last year when NASA announced the landing site for curiosity, I called the head of p.r. At JPL. As you know, Squaires and the great crew at JPL
Like to invent nicknames for surface features around the lander site. As curiosity is headed for Gale Crater, what better source for nicknames could there be than The Wizard of Oz?

I’m sure you remember Dorthy’s last name? So here’s what I’ve come up with so far:

the lander heat shield is “tin-man”
The flying Crain is Flying monkey
The large mt. At the center of Gale Crater could be OZ.

Can you come up with any?
