Refresh until you get guitar cat.

I had to rely on NickwithaC’s helpful comment.

Start at the black food truck and go toward the orange seating. It’s on the back of a guy’s T-shirt who’s sitting at the table one down from the couple who are bending down, one with his hand still on his beer.

(I haven’t linked a comment before, so I hope I did this right.)

Luckily you get more queens as you fail.

I only needed five to win. 😓

I feel so accomplished…

Heat pumps and air conditioners both work off of the refrigeration cycle. A heat pump is essentially an air conditioner that has a reversing valve to allow the refrigerant to flow the opposite way.

I had no idea Moss 2 was out, and it came out in 2022. Instant purchase for sure, but now I have to decide if I’m going to replay the first one. Thanks for the PSA.

The previous 40kW proposal linked in the article mentions it would allow operation where solar panels aren’t feasible, like permanently shadowed areas where water might be. There’s also the dust problem to solve with solar panels, although this would also be a problem for nuclear reactors since their radiators could become less efficient from dust buildup.

There’s a lot of extra costs associated with making solar panels space worthy. No atmosphere also means no radiation shielding and no cooling. I actually managed to find satellite solar panels for sale: https://www.cubesatshop.com/product/solar-panels/. They have front and back panels but if we assume they didn’t have a back and all panels faced towards the sun it would be ~120W. That gives us $133/W, which means 100kW would be $13.3 million. Unfortunately the mass isn’t listed, so we can’t estimate the launch costs. I don’t have a way to estimate the cost of a fission nuclear reactor on the moon since we don’t know how it would work yet, so this calculation is mostly for fun. That math would change significantly if we are able to manufacture solar cells from lunar regolith.

In nuclear’s defense, we’ve been sending plutonium-238 into space since 1961. There’s been a few accidents, but the fuel casing has been improved so that the later accidents resulted in no leakage. That was in the early days, so we know a lot more about safety now. Do you think the risks are too high for any nuclear fuels in space, or does uranium pose unique risks?

Citogenesis in action

To be fair, he said he’s passionate about peer-to-peer technology and listed Bitcoin as an example. I don’t think that makes him a crypto bro. He probably just appreciates the theory behind it.

Yeah, that’s why they want change.
