Why do rockets ice up when sitting on the pad? And why doesn’t the ice degrade their early acceleration? And why haven’t they figured out how to stop rockets from icing up?

I thought about all this when watching the rocket test last week.

Most rockets have a lot of liquid oxygen which exists at -297.3°F .. which is obviously very cold and so ice can form when something that cold interacts with normal temperature

Bring on all your science!

As we learn more about the solar system the more we find commonalities amongst the various bodies (water, elements, isotopes, etc.) Is this simply a local function of our sun and its formation or will we find out that this is common in other star systems too?

Scenario: a plastic bucket of chlorine tablets for a swimming pool, only half full, lid closed, located in an outdoor shed in Florida. The bucket ended up melting, the shed filled with fumes and powdery residue, the steel tools and equipment rusted while the aluminum stuff tarnished and pitted. Appears as though there may have been a smoldering fire ( or just intense heat) from the looks of bucket.
What may have cause this reaction?

Plus, some rockets use liquid hydrogen or liquid methane as fuel in addition to the oxidizer. Both are cold as fuck. And water vapor is attracted to the cold.

What do you think of this phenomena? Methane is involved. Lots of theories out there.

Can we use it as a landfill?

Whatever are you scared of? I mean, it's a question and not a PM.

Your name is boo … it was being literal

I think so … it’s possible we just haven’t discovered them yet

Chlorine potentially reacting with the humid air and creating hydrogen chloride gas

We think we know what’s in our planet … and it’s possible these are totally naturally occurring phenomena

Can we use it as a landfill?

I think we have to think of other solutions for waste.

 

[boo56]

Okay, I see. I get it. Somebody gave me the name as a sort unwanted nickname which just happened to be handy when I joined Lit a half a lifetime ago. It not really that kind of boo, but I didn't get it. Then, the wag after me said 56 was an unlucky number. He must have gotten it right away.

There is a lot we don't know.

And, some are arrogant enough to think they know enough to colonize Mars, but Mars Sucks. I suppose Mars can be trashed, too.

It points towards methane, once trapped below permafrost erupting or in this case, exploding. Methane is a powerful greenhouse gas and the spike in its release adds further to the rise in atmospheric temperatures... that's of course if you believe all that woke lefty science shit.

I'm thinking it's methane hydrate decomposition.

Those tacos I had last night......

Whatever. We're still toast

What's more important for porn to flourish, literature or science?

Both, I think … because the narrative relies on literature .., but science helps with the improvement of technology (better cameras, better toys, etc)

If Science created the Keyboard...

Can we masturbate with just Science...Nooo!
I need to read or watch.

and it talks to you. Can you hear it singing? What is it saying to you?
