SpaceX again embarrasses Russian and Chinese state Space programs with 7 man Dragon spaceship launch

[Hamartia Antidote]

You are avoiding my inquiry. I am not talking about future.

?? It says quite clearly that Obama cancelled the manned Constellation project and favored private companies building “taxis to the ISS”.

Maybe China should see the light too and hire somebody like Jack Ma to run their launch systems...so they can see some results.

The soyuz did it's job very well. I don't see any reason to be embarrassed.

This was actually the argument as to why state Socialism is not a great idea. Once you have something working there is no financial incentive to pursue any more innovation. So things stagnate...in the case of the Soyuz this is now 50 years.

To be honest, no country is even remotely close to American space exploration initiatives and set of accomplishments on the whole. Elon Musk is a genius on top; SpaceX has revolutionized space exploration with its 'reusable launch systems', and it is developing space exploration technologies at a rapid pace. This should not be even an argument.

Intellectual honesty is NEVER an item when it comes to criticizing the US, has it? Right now, the best the Chinese can boast is a movie while SpaceX makes real world advances.

Lol.. typical American response. US need to depend on Russian soryuz to ISS. It doesn't matter Obama cancel or not . And as I say don't be so sure when the egg hasn't hatched. Maybe space dragon spaceship is so safe it will killed all 7 US astronaut. Until the day it safely send back the astronaut, your reply will be validated. Then u will know US decision is wise or foolish.

I think the US has already requested China to prolong the Queqiao program by 2 yeara so they can also send something to far side of the moon.

Who would've thought the US today would be borrowing a satellite from China to go to the moon.

 

[gambit]

Lol.. typical American response.

You mean with facts, logic, and common sense? Yup. You guys should try it sometimes.

 

[Kiss_of_the_Dragon]

You got a loooooooong way to go, son...

I had never claim that China is light years ahead of US , I don't know how old are you to call me kid, if that make you more mature lol ok.

We Chinese don't need to boast anything since our space program is on smooth and flawless but as a Vietnamese to boast US is not making Vietnam any better and remember this...all American technology are immigrant technology, Americans are just worthless, they can only rely on imported talented immigrants to work on their high tech.

 

[Dungeness]

By same logic, ISRO "embarrassed" every space power, US included, because they sent 104 micro sat in one go. The title is of no value other than provocation.

 

[艹艹艹]

congrats to americans for finally getting rid of 'Soyuz'

 

[master_13]

I don't know what's so embarrassing, US HAS ALWAYS BEEN AHEAD IN space technology. It's not like China/Russia were always ahead, and all the sudden US caught up. The title sounds like some artificial trolling.

Lol.. typical American response. US need to depend on Russian soryuz to ISS. It doesn't matter Obama cancel or not .

Well of course we are exclusively using Soyuz. That's pretty obvious. US astronauts were already flying on Soyuz craft even when the Space Shuttle was still flying. Soyuz usually did two flights a year when the shuttle was around and then afterwards it got bumped up to four.

Maybe space dragon spaceship is so safe it will killed all 7 US astronaut.

Ah the grapes must obviously be sour!! LOL!

If it held 9 I would have put NASA in the title like last time.

Elon Musk embarrasses US, Russian, and Chinese space agencies by launching the most powerful rocket

The above was an embarrassment on an insane scale. A tiny private company with only a few thousand employees outperforms 3 state sponsored multi-$billion budget agencies with tens of thousands of people.

To make matters worse they land the rocket too making everybody look completely stupid.

How many rocket launches has the US, Russia, and China done over the last 60 years wasting engines and resources? How many $Billions?

Sounds like you just described all 'Chinese' technology, buddy. You forced sharing of technology. You quite literally stole technology. Then you hire mercenary scientists and engineers to build up what you stole.

LOL! They are literally surrounded by American/Western inventions. So when it comes to worthless they should take a long look in the mirror...hmm which BTW was also invented by a Westerner. LOL! https://www.livescience.com/34466-who-invented-mirror.html

lol, without stealing immigrants around the world, where would "American ingenuity and innovation" be? zero. US stole entire European technology back in the 1900s, to this day, Silicon Valley is still filled with foreign engineers filing majority of patents. While American sitting in their trailer calling it "American innovation", LOL.

lol, without stealing immigrants around the world,...

It is not possible to 'steal' immigrants. Look up the meaning of the word before you post. lol
