I wonder how much mass we can add to the Earth, from mining the rest of the solar system for raw materials?I’ve made my peace with not having had Apollos 18 through 20. Von Braun’s magnificent beasts have had a GREAT run with zero flight casualties. Imagine if one of the canceled flights had caught a solar flare.
Rockets as viable commercial entities are finally coming into their own over 50 years later. Apollo and the Shuttle were necessities of the cold war. Falcon 9 has been knocking them out of the park — a bit too well, allowing cluttersats like LarStink to be attractive to shareholders.
I have my doubts about Shartsip as well, as you might deduce from my cheeky anagrams for the MuskRat’s space ventures.
But if it works, imagine the massive and capable robots we could send across local space from corona to Kuiper! It’s enough to make an alte kacker to remember what an erection feels like!
(insert penis rocket gif here)
The trend will be away from planets as we get our space legs. Being at the bottom of a hole is expensive in the universal currency of space commerce: delta V.
When certain groups, specifically maga, unite around a fixed set of corrosive lies whose aim is to undo the republic (remember January 6?) the argument is by no means negated.
I must have missed that. I didn't know anyone sold snake oil in the modern times.
I went to a chiropractor once, that was Chinese and also did acupuncture.
I took my kid to a chiropractor once, and I thought it was weird. I think the Chinese herbs and acupuncture have merit though. I've had acupuncture as a kid myself. My parents were hippies, and it was a hippy thing to do back then.

This is the most info that I could really glean from that opinion piece:
"While holding a medical license, Mehmet Oz, widely known as Dr. Oz, has long pushed misleading, science-free and unproven alternative therapies such as homeopathy, as well as fad diets, detoxes and cleanses. Some of these things have been potentially harmful, including hydroxychloroquine, which he once touted would be beneficial in the treatment or prevention of COVID. This assertion has been thoroughly debunked."
Hydroxychloroquine is harmful eh? Hmm, not according to this study:

I never said that I supported Oz, I've only questioned the demonetization of his "snake oil". I've just been failed by the standard western medicine model too many times to trust that "the experts" always know what's best. If I just listened to what the first expert told me about my child's orthodontic plan, they would have done jaw surgery to correct a small overbite. No thank you. I sought out an alternate option, not covered by my insurance, which somehow has corrected the issue without jaw surgery. Go figure.
