will prove it to the aerospace industry. Eventually Airbus will be the first to adapt the technology.
This retired SoCal Boeing guy was glad to help change the paradigm.
Planes, trains & automobiles can & will be made from recycled materials and this realm of technology is the first step.
This technology has Tesla on its ear for their huge (dumb) investment in large metal stamping equipment. Auto industry has always let govt. funded
technology be proven in the aerospace industry. It is being proven over the skies of Edwards as we speak and Tesla is watching too. (Friends in
places) |
Cool story. My daughter is a junior studying aerospace engineering. She is on her like 6th or 7th level of physics.

As physics relates to aerospace;
Algebra is math in two planes
Trig is three planes
& Calculus is all three planes in motion with acceleration & velocity
It is why they call it rocket science

Lee,
I didn’t realize newbies couldn’t express opinions that irritated you either.
What say that I do it?
“THEY can STFU. When they begin to lead by example - it'll be worthy to listen. They don't. They are total hypocrites...as are the majority of
globalist elitist preachers of gloom. If you wish to follow them be my guest. BTW, if there are companies making valid & sensible use of recycled
plastic - I'm all for it. Totally different subject for the most part.”
There, feel better? (Not!)
BT,
I thought Tesla’s big investment was in liquid metal injection molding (Die casting) of large sections or complete body parts. That process can
also use recycled metal.

My "new" contract gig is with Sempra.
I'm arranging a Tecate wind farm visit, see how it feels standing on top of a wind tower in Baja.
Their LNG plant is the next visit.

Looks like Leonard nimoy, not the fictional character Spock. Do you know the difference? 
Loos like he is narrating, not commenting; again, do you know the difference?
Oddly enough, Your stupid post of a 45 year old clip is a little bit less stupid than measuring sea level thru vacation snapshots of a clump of palm
trees

How is it a troll pointing out that for the last 60 years five different major climate catastrophes have been predicted by "scientists."
All the while those predictions have been used to amass fortunes and power.

The Palm Tree Picture is no more “stupid” than using pre-GPS sea level measurements to attempt to say anything about the recent rate of change in
the rise in sea level which has been going on for over 12,000 years! (More than a 150M rise!)
It’s only since GPS that we can actually measure the changes in the elevation of the gages with any accuracy and the elevation of the gages does
change a lot over very short time spans!

Making money on doomsday predictions is nothing new. It's the oldest con there is. It's the foundation of all religions.
Look at the "prepper" industry. Same people that built bomb shelters 60 years ago.

I lived through all of that. I was probably 50 before I stopped diving under a table when there was an unexpected loud noise. That said I don’t know
anyone who bought a bomb shelter back then. Living out of town up in the hills is probably a more survivable option in my opinion. At least that’s
what we did and the air is way better! Also a different class of people too!

Does Starfleet have his back on this? I'm listening!
If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

We have all seen video's of polar bears on sinking ice chunks. Suggesting they are losing all their hunting grounds and in deep peril.
Now the facts:
In the 1970's there were estimated to be 10,000 polar bears.
Today there are estimated to be 30,000 polar bears.
How dumb do you have to be to believe what big govt. tells you about climate change?

There you go again attacking the messenger, because you can't win on the substance.
"Polar bear populations have been stable to growing over the past several decades; their numbers have increased from fewer than 23,000 in 1980 to
26,000 from 1995 to 2015 to 30,000 more recently."

Not one political statement was made. We are talking "science, history, and facts."
Why would that upset you?
