If they didn’t pay the dividends they’d have more money to spend on houses.

The question is silly. But assuming starship was operational when they designed JWST I guess there would have been less unfolding steps reducing risk and probably more fuel / lifespan because the weight is irrelevant when they refuel starship in orbit.

Well yes. Was talking about all of them. Technically from the moon at night you would see all planets with a bit of luck not getting blocked by earth.

Awesome. This makes sense. I read it as it’s fairly frequent now because the outer planets are all on the other side hanging out, which is lucky but not frequent in galactic terms.

Wait… how? Wouldn’t that require all planets to have the same speed traveling around the sun? You need the inner planets between earth and sun, or behind the sun from our perspective which sure I can see that happening all the time unless they are hidden behind the sun itself. But the outer planets would need to be behind the sun from earth’s perspective, no? If they are on “our side” of the sun then we cannot see them together with the inner planets?

I need an ELI5 picture or video explaining to me how this is not a rare event.

I never understood why they were developed separately

Because it’s not predictable. It’s in the article.

LAN cable. Obviously.

Protectionism always hurts the protectionist.

It will make everything more expensive, harder to export and require more protectionist measures that require our companies to compete less with the world having eventually a negative effect on National Security due to messer products. Ask Russia how that works out.
