If you missed it , there was another bonus chapter (#345) this morning as a thank you to you ladies and mentlegents for your generosity. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2evhYhsbNB6aLM

[@wildwikedwanderer1208]

Hahaha yea humans found their spiritual brothers in that first story

[@reclaimerbear6760]

Orion drive for the win 🏆

[@ZM1306]

I would like to ask a question... who is crazier? The people who use nuclear detonation propulsion out of necessity, or the people who considered and designed it just for fun? P.S. The first man made object was put into space by nuclear detonation.... if it didn't burn up while leaving the atmosphere..... a USA manhole cover. If I remember right a calculation was made that put its speed *at least* 6 to 7 times escape velocity.

[@ICountFrom0]

This story is better every time. I keep finding myself cheering, "GO BABY GO" and just being so ... PROUD... of a fictional race that built Orion.

[@bradj9772]

Glad to finally have a story about project Orion!! Loved it for a sci fi concept for a long time!

[@AgroSquerril]

Boooom-chuka-chuka - SPACE!

[@wilemelliott]

They did it in Footfall with the Michael. Also heard one earlier with a human ship using it on a cargo transport

[@robertschumacher2707]

Alien: You did what with that tech?!?! Inconceivable! Human: I do not think that word means what you think it means. Also, why not?

[@cantharelluscibarius2244]

Now that's what i call rocket jumping!

[@johnnycampbell3422]

I do like the Mad Lads. Too often I have found I couldn't hang with em, but I do like em. I am older now, so when I see them taking off, I just give a head nod, and wistfully remember the days where I did.

“So...human Jerry...isn’t unit QB6E2185 usually used in Kora’x’al - designed beverage dispensers? “Yea, why?” “Why the sierq is it used in 83% of your weapons?” “...”. “If it works, it FUCKING WORKS”

[@insertjokehere3801]

These stories make me wonder what all these alien planet would be like. How big are there planets if earth is big

[@neosildrake]

Very, _very_ late to the Q. It's not so much about size, but about mass. A planet double the size but with the same mass as earth would have only 50% of earths gravity.

[@zarlsalamandersspacemarine302]

A fucking Orion drive. I love it XD

[@AgroSquerril]

:)

[@Caldoric]

I was beginning to wonder, before mention was even made of the plate on the ship's bottom, if they were gonna do the nuke launch thing. Iirc it was a theorized method of space launch we actually considered in the past, but we never did it for obvious reasons

[@johns9652]

I saw it coming too, because I’ve seen videos speculating whether our first space object was basically a giant manhole cover (actually a giant plate over a test site), or if that object was actually atomized. Slow motion footage exists apparently, but only a couple of frames have the plate in it, it disappears so fast it can be argued either way.

[@Nyet-Zdyes]

I just knew that they'd be riding a mushroom cloud into orbit...

Thank you for the reading

Missed the live stream again, damn

[@MiningwithPudding]

So, I'm trying to find the story about how Humanity is the only species that actually has bomb disposal teams, but I can't find it. HFY Bomb/Bomb disposal/bomb defusal only sends me back here...

[@isaackinsley1662]

There's this one and one other I can't remember. kzbin.info/www/bejne/r3mlo6pne7RphJY

[@MiningwithPudding]

@@isaackinsley1662 Thanks! Although I think the other one neither of us can exactly remember is the one I'm looking for...

If you are going to use Orion why such small bombs?

[@malcolmanderson6735]

Aaaarg. Kilos are mass, not weight.

[@gregkelmis2435]

Please do some research on greenhouse gases historically the earth has had far higher CO2 contact and its atmosphere sometimes so high that no human could survive. Technically speaking CO2 is it low levels worldwide for the plant life to thrive plant life would be much healthier if they were higher CO2 levels do a little scientific research

[@morgankuikka4940]

I know it's two years old, but remember, it's a reddit story. That site is not exactly a font of scientific knowledge.
