So, the major issue with settling moon is resource availability: water (!), carbon, fertile soil, and energy.

On the moon you have none of that. Maybe, with a lot of luck, you find water somewhere. Then you need carbon, energy during the long moon nights, and soil that isn’t razor sharp particles.

On Mars, you have all of them: low concentrations of water in the atmosphere, carbon from carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, soil that isn’t razor sharp (thanks to erosion), and the nights are short enough that you can make it through them.

Yeah I’ve been thinking about condensing the water out of the air, too. Problem is: how do you do that? If you use chemical dessication agents, then it’s effectively the same as if you let the soil absorb the water from the atmosphere. Just that the soil is already there and you don’t need to artificially manufacture dessicants. So it’s a bit simpler.

thanks, the link is interesting.

The value proposition would be that it is important to understand the exact radiation pattern/schemes if we ever want to routinize spaceflight. In other words: effective solutions (to the problem of radiation) requires detailed knowledge of what the problem actually is, in other words, what kind of radiation are we talking about.

First of all, yes, attempts have been made, but:

• E-Mail is widespread, but not simple. It’s quite complicated
• Other messengers often try to simplify the protocol.

Yeah there’s actually documentaries about this: like this (it’s in german though)

… hearkens back to basic Judeo-Christian values of kindness, human dignity, humility and prosperity.

I was more talking about the quantitative split in Particle Radiation/Electromagnetic Radiation.

unfortunately, the preview of the book doesn’t show for me

yeah sorry i didn’t mean to sound rude. It’s just that I’ve heard too much “corporate bullshit talk” that i can’t just stay calm when i hear it.

Yeah at this point peertube is mostly a video hosting system. We still need a good discovery/finding/recommendation system. I think that could be independently developed; for example: upload the videos on peertube and then link and post them here on lemmy to promote them.

I was going to upvote but then:

Hopefully it will start leaning into its unique strengths now and become really innovative.

Please stop the corporate garbage talk/pitching bullshit. Can’t we have a normal discussion without these buzzwords?

So I feel like I’m doing peertube wrong. I’m trying to find good content, but it feels like every single instance I find is just “here’s the linux news, here’s the new linux tips, here’s the linux gossip, linux linux linux!” And I do not give a shit about linux. I just want to find the non-tech, non-video game content.

There’s also https://pony.tube ;-)

Just a quick adventure

btw I read the guardian a lot, and they have a lot of good articles.

Hmm yeah, airtight buildings are a challenge to construct.

That’s why I’ve favored the people on Mars living in the spaceships. The building already exists, and is naturally air-tight (after all, it has been airtight for 6 months in outer space). But that has its downsides: less protection against radiation, mostly. (due to only having 5mm of steel and 200 kg/m² CO2 above your head instead of meters full of dirt and rock.)
