We had a supersonic airliner, Concorde, from 1969 to 2003. It was eventually abandoned as uneconomic, because you canât fly supersonic over populated areas. It only made any money at all because it could fly the Atlantic run to the U.S.
Why is anyone developing a civil supersonic jet?
Reading the stuff the CEO is saying in that article, it all sounds very naive and unrealistic, like some reddit post by somebody that is way overenthusiastic but doesnât have much understanding of the technical and economic limitations.
But apparently they managed to fund and develop a prototype that can go supersonic, so I have to assume they are not stupid⊠
As an undercover alien posing on your planet, I can actually see all the planets in this photo, but you guys donât even have names for, or know of them yet so I wonât spoil it. James Webb should be getting good images on them soon enough.
When you decide to leave, please take me with youâŠunless you plan to put my head in a jar.
Starship flight 8 (SpaceX)
After a delay from February 28th and scrub March 3rd, another launch opportunity is set for March 6th at 23:30pm UTC (in a couple of hours).
Update:
Debris coming down:
Strike 2! 
I think this athiest can safely say, Elon has pissed off all of the pantheons. All of which have been proven real by his behaviour. Websites are already taking bets on which one heâs pissed off the most. My moneyâs on the greek pantheon.
He wouldnât be around anymore if that were the case. They might not be the most powerful pantheon, but they act rashly and impulsively. If you piss them off, you know within short order.
Thats why you donât really hear any new stories of the Pantheon after those times, centuries of inbreeding and gods born into entitlement⊠Theyâre a shadow of their former selves, the only tradition that still held strong was the patricide.
Zonk, the lesser god of passive surliness, great great great grand son of zeus and his own cousin six times, well even he had to take note of Elon and Trump and do something. Just donât expect them to achieve any results. In most cases if they do come down theyâll probably get drunk and aid them.
NASA SpaceX Crew-10 launch to the ISS

You can sue an AI for suspected starting of rumors based on your own personal prompts?
Alternative title, âMan upset that AI had no idea who he wasâ 
More like âMan upset that AI had no idea who he was, had no idea that it didnât and just started to make stuff up about him as a resultâ.
Honestly, this is an angle I hadnât thought about. If youâre not a famous person, any AI will necessarily have to make up shit if itâs asked about you, or must consistently be trained to answer âI donât know that personâ when asked about any given name.
I wonder if this era of Idiocracy crossed with questionable AI means that in the future even our smartest computers will be âstupidâ.
State of the art planetary colony modules except nobody checked to see if it had light switches unstalled⊠that type of thing.
The aliens must be have a ball watching us on their reality TV programs.
