COLLECTIVE MADNESS


“Soft despotism is a term coined by Alexis de Tocqueville describing the state into which a country overrun by "a network of small complicated rules" might degrade. Soft despotism is different from despotism (also called 'hard despotism') in the sense that it is not obvious to the people."

NASA Has No Rocket to Get Astronauts into Space



NASA is Working on the Problem




Russian Rocket Gives NASA a Lift to Space Station
By DAVID M. HERSZENHORN
Published: November 14, 2011 NYT

MOSCOW — A Russian Soyuz rocket blasted off amid heavy snow in Kazakhstan on Monday morning, beginning a two-day trip to ferry three astronauts to the International Space Station and opening a new era of American dependence on Russia — and eventually on commercial enterprises — for space travel.

NASA ended its space shuttle program in July. The launch Monday morning, at 10:14 a.m. from the Baikonur Cosmodrome, carrying an American, Daniel C. Burbank, and two Russians, Anton N. Shkaplerov and Anatoly A. Ivanishin, is the first trip into orbit by astronauts since the last shuttle flight.

The Soyuz TMA-22 is scheduled to dock with the space station on Wednesday, and the three astronauts will join three others who have been on board since June. Those three astronauts are scheduled to return to Earth next week and recent mishaps had raised concerns that the space station would be left empty for the first time in more than a decade.

Monday’s launch, originally scheduled for September, was delayed after the failure in August of a Russian unmanned cargo rocket similar to the one used for manned flights. NASA officials said that they were confident that their Russian counterparts had identified and corrected the problem.

In a separate mishap last week, a Russian craft headed to explore a Martian moon got stalled in low-Earth orbit after its engines failed to fire. The stalled probe, which also launched from the Baikonur cosmodrome, could crash back to Earth within weeks.

On Monday morning, video from the cosmodrome showed the astronauts wearing blue parkas as they headed to board the rocket amid snowflakes swirling in a blustery wind.

The white snowscape around the launch pad briefly glowed bright orange as the countdown hit zero, the boosters fired and the gray rocket quickly accelerated to more than 3,000 miles per hour for a smooth trip into space.

Once safely in orbit, the crew flashed a thumbs up.

Mr. Burbank, a veteran of previous space shuttle flights, will take charge of the space station, and the current commander, Michael Fossum, an American, and flight engineers, Satoshi Furukawa of Japan and Sergei Volkov of Russia, are scheduled to return to Earth on Nov. 22. Another crew of three astronauts are scheduled to travel to the space station on Dec. 21.

In addition to carrying out dozens of scientific experiments, the newly arrived space station team will inaugurate the new era of commercial space expeditions, including the launch of a Falcon 9 rocket, built by Space Exploration Technologies Corporation of Hawthorne, Calif., known as SpaceX, which will carry a capsule called the Dragon.

Another commercial resupply ship being built by Orbital Sciences Corporation of Dulles, Va., is also expected to make the trip to the station next year, according to NASA.

  1. From the start, I despised the original concept of an International Space Station. It was conceived in the adolescent mind of someone who spent too much time playing with his Hikaru Sulu and Spock dolls.

    When planned, NASA was already a beaureacratic labyrinth, and the creators of ISS decided to make it more interesting and get in on with the Russian and EU Space agencies. It was originally Reagan’s brain fart but on September 1993, American Vice-President Al Gore, Jr., announced the birth of the enterprise.

    It was and continues to be a costly and worthless endeavor that has accomplished what could have been done for a budget one tenth of the size.

    When President Reagan first proposed Space Station Freedom in 1984, the projected price tag was $8 billion. At the time, Clinton said the international station would cost $17.4 billion.The cost to date is unknown and astronomical, probably over $100 billion and counting.

  3. The ISS served as a rationale for the equally wasteful Shuttle.
    Money burning deathtrap waiting to happen.
    Meanwhile, the Ruskies kicked ass with a 50 year old rocket engine.

    Air Force disposables would have provided more capability for a fraction of the cost.

    Using leftover shuttle rocket parts should be cost-effective and highly reliable.

    Modern versions of the Atlas and Delta should be as inherently reliable as their predecessors. Their specified design reliability is 98%, a value typical of that demonstrated by the best expendable vehicles. If this is achieved, and I believe that it will be, and given a separate escape system with an assumed reliability of even 90%, the fatal accident rate would be 1 in 500 launches, substantially better than for the Shuttle. We need the political leadership and commitment to make the needed corrections.

    The Space Shuttle was Nixon era, sold to us as basically an orbiting truck that would earn millions of dollars with every launch and pay its own way.

    The Russian Soyuz is like a Volkswagen bug you can fix with WD-40 and some duct tape. It's the turtle that wins the race slow and steady. I really dig that old workhorse.

    But what I really want to see a some smaller horizontal take-off and landing (HOTOL) orbiter, piggybacked on a custom 747 maybe, up to 30,000 feet, then separation, the orbiter uses an airbreathing scramjet mixed with onboard liquid hydrogen to get up to mach 6, 80,000 feet, then switches in the onboard LOX for the rest of the way up (Mach 20, 500,000 feet). Both sections then return and land on an airfield, for turnaround in 24 hours or less. Safer'n a Volvo.

  11. Re: The previous post:
    Everybody wants the tyrannical Iranian regime out. Most of all the Iranian people. Much harsher and smarter sanctions will accomplish that goal. There is no need for war. The Federation of American Scientists called the IAEA report "hyperbole vs. fact.” The hype is coming from Israeli politicians and their strong arm tactics in the US. Iran’s nuclear program and technology are not a matter of political opinion.

    They are scientific and technological issues. They are governed by clearly spelled out international agreements that are binding on everyone, not just nations like Iran.

    Israel feels that is is special and does as it pleases.

    The rest of the world is giving more credit to Iran's intelligence service's professionalism than what is coming out of the mouths of the director of the White House, Congress, the FBI and the Attorney General of the United States. Use your minds, N. Korea builds the bomb and we are talking to them. No threats. Iran has no nukes, we threaten regime change and Israel is planning to attack.

    Lesson to Iran: Build the bomb.

  12. I am inclined to estimate that not more than 10 or 15 people in all of Israel know all the varied information that is essential for a level-headed decision on the Iranian issue, including the prime minister, defense minister and two or three advisers and professionals. This leads me to a difficult but unavoidable conclusion: History is presenting Israel with a critical challenge in which the very few are likely to greatly affect the future of very many. Such a situation is not desirable from the perspective of democratic values, and it also entails some danger. Such situations are rare, but they are not unique in history, especially in light of weapons of mass destruction. (Just recall U.S. President John F. Kennedy's response to the deployment of Soviet missiles in Cuba.)

    Fortunately, notwithstanding all the justified criticism of this country's leaders on issues like the peace process and the social welfare policy, there is no doubt about their total commitment to Israel's security, expertise in the Iranian issue and reasoning ability. In any case, the decision is necessarily in their hands. One can only hope that the public debate, which will certainly not help matters, will at least do no harm.

  13. - Spanish government bonds fell Monday, putting the country back in the spotlight as the 10-year yield moved back above the 6% level and the premium demanded by investors to hold Spanish government debt over 10-year German bunds rose to a level unseen since the launch of the euro.

  14. The yield on Italian 10-year bonds rallied early on Monday afternoon to 6.7pc, while equivalent Spanish bond yields hit 6.03pc, up from 5pc five weeks ago.
    It is the first time Spanish bonds have breached the 6pc line since the European Central Bank resumed debt purchases on August 8.
    It leaves Spain with borrowing costs closer to those of Italy as the ECB's purchases fail to cap yields, and reveals investors' scepticism as to whether eurozone leaders will be able to push through reforms to end the debt crisis.
    Italian bond yields fell from a record high of 7.48pc last week as Silvio Berlusconi made his way for the exit, but jumped again today before Mario Monti, the new technocrat leader, had even named his ministers or laid out a timetable to form a government.

  16. The whole thing is interesting from another point of view. Israel right now is on one of the crests of the waves of it national existence. Babylon, Assyria, Rome, 2,000 years in dispersion, all troughs, then the holocaust, then....then miracle of miracles they recover their national home, a rise back to the current crest in this ongoing wave action of a narrative. What will happen next? Will the story end, as the Iranians wish? Israel off the map? This time the terms are changed. The Israelis are nuclear armed, and the surrounding monster kingdoms unlike of old will at least pay a hell of a higher price for fucking with zion.

    You've got cause and effect turned around 180 degrees Bob.

    All of the Israelites were deported from the Holy Land at one time or another. Ten of the tribes were deported in 720 BC, by the Assyrians. When these were settled in Medea, there was no literate culture to be absorbed by the Israelites by osmosis. They intermarried and disappeared from history forever.

    But when the Benjaminites and Judahites and Levites (known collectively as the Jews) were deported by Nebuchadnezzar in 597 BC, they went to Babylon, which was a very literate culture, and the Babylonian writings crossed over to the Jews by osmosis.

    The four "evil days" of the Babylonian Shabbatu (8th, 15th, 22nd, and 29th of the lunar month) were reversed to became the Shabbat. The 11th scroll of the Gilgamesh epic was incorporated into Jewish writings as the Noah myth, and the Adam myth, etc. The Yahwhist stories (native to the Jews, written by a learned woman in the court of Rehoboam, son of Solomon) were merged with the Elohist stories from the northern kingdom, together with the ordinances of the priests from the time before the temple was created, and before you knew it, Ezra the Scribe had a Torah on his hands.

    These five books were credited to the pen of Moshe (neat trick, since he gets buried in the fifth one) and they created a common "history" and culture and law that forged a persistent people. With the Torah, each community could live in total isolation from each other, yet retain the same common identity, century after century. The book made the Jews.

  20. "Israel recently got information that Pakistan was supporting the nuclear weapon program of Syria by supplying it some of the key components."

    We were told by the true believers here and elsewhere that the Weapons of Mass Destruction that were the casus belli of the Iraq War (the yellowcake from Niger, the weapons-grade anthrax, the 155mm dum dum howitzer rounds with nerve gas inside them) were all conveniently transported over the border to Syria (beyond hope of falsifiability) just as the Thunder Runs were taking place in Baghdad. So it doesn't surprise me to see the same Hail Mary pass thrown again, once more into Syria, this time Pakistani centrifuges or triggers.

    Brig Gen (retd) Shalom Harari says Israel got this information? If he's retired, how did he get it? If the information is valid, why isn't Israel sticking him in the same hole they stuck Mordechai Vanunu? Give me a break, how dumb do they think we are?

  24. Accepting appeals from a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit in Atlanta — the only appeals court to say the law was unconstitutional — justices said they would consider:

    • Whether Congress was acting within its constitutional powers by requiring all Americans have at least a basic form of health insurance by 2014. Those who do not would be required to pay a penalty on their 2015 income tax returns.

    • Whether other parts of the law can go forward if the so-called individual mandate is found unconstitutional. Lower courts have differed on the question, but the administration says the law’s more popular features, such as prohibiting insurance companies from denying coverage to those with preexisting conditions, cannot work financially without the mandate that all join the system.

    • Whether Congress is improperly coercing states to extend Medicaid, the subsidized health care for the poor and disabled, to those with incomes of 133 percent of the federal poverty level. Medicaid is a shared expense of the federal and state governments, and the federal government would pay 100 percent of the additional cost through 2016. The percentage would decline after that.

    By the end of the exchange, Pelley, with a smug, condescending expression on his face, looked quite foolish as the audience applauded and one of Gingrich's opponents on stage actually commented, "Well said. Well said"

  47. There will always be a 1%, and a top 1/10th of 1%. It's simple mathematics. However, it's what the top 0.1% are being allowed to do with their power that's pissing the rest off.

    For ex:

    In Silicon Valley, Bullis elementary school accepts one in six kindergarten applicants, offers Chinese and asks families to donate $5,000 per child each year. Parents include Ken Moore, son of Intel Corp.’s co-founder, and Steven Kirsch, inventor of the optical mouse.

    Bullis isn’t a high-end private school. It’s a taxpayer- funded, privately run public school, part of the charter-school movement that educates 1.8 million U.S. children. While charters are heralded for offering underprivileged kids an alternative to failing U.S. districts, Bullis gives an admissions edge to residents of parts of Los Altos Hills, where the median home is worth $1 million and household income is $219,000, four times the state average.

    “Bullis is a boutique charter school,” said Nancy Gill, a Los Altos education consultant who helps parents choose schools. “It could bring a whole new level of inequality to public education.”

    The growing ranks of U.S. charter schools in affluent suburbs are pitting neighbor against neighbor and, critics say, undercutting the original goals of the charter movement. Families who benefit cherish extensive academic offerings and small classes. Those who don’t say their children are being shortchanged because the schools are siphoning off money and the strongest students, leaving . . . .
