That would be the longest rover trip ever by a factor of like several thousand.

Call like any university and say “hey you got 3000 pounds of shit you want on a solar orbit? It might blow up, this is a test flight” And the answer will be “Yes, absolutely!”
They just couldn’t think of a single better use for three thousand pounds of payload to solar orbit, right, sure.
The Falcon 9/heavy is the best amerikkkan launch system since Saturn but that’s not a high bar.
My favorite :agony-turbo: one of those is “we’re not gonna put this lunar rover that we already built on a rocket that we’re gonna launch anyway so :my-hero: can get more money”
Meanwhile China has I think three lunar rovers currently on the moon roving.

There are already 13 countries signed up to be a part of the International Lunar Research Station program. The most recent is Senegal which joined about two weeks ago.
Yemen would be a good place to launch space rockets from, just on a technical level. Low latitude, low humidity, ocean to the southeast.
Using a Starfleet chevron for the CNSA logo is kinda memeing on us.
The 2011 no working with China law is going to get funnier and funnier as their moon base progresses.
CNSA is stepping up to do the real space exploration stuff. Lunar farside sample return is pretty damn cool and they’re actually making good progress toward a human moon landing by 2030. There are going to be two more robotic ones before that, one with a rover and hopper to scout the best sites from the ground and one with some kind of ISRU test to make a permanent moon base more useful and viable.
It has ads in it, so that’s definitely false
Canadians saying “buddy” to mean motherfucker is fun
Their shitty app was out for a while before they killed the 3rd party apps, but nobody used it because it was so shitty.
Purveyor of unusually trans and also based serial web fiction, HorizonTheTransient, has come out with a new story and reminded me of how much I like her writing.
Thunder rumbled overhead, and I snorted.
“Come down here and say it to my face, asshole.”
The thunder rumbled again, but quieter.
“Yeah, ‘swhat I fuckin’ thought.”
Just open persistent.sfs in your save folder, go to the CAREER section, and change the RepLossDeclined value to 0
I like to edit my save so there’s no penalty for declining a mission so I can try and get ones that fit where I want to go
The onewheel is inferior amerikrakkker technology the EUC is superior Chinese technology.
The onewheel has a weak little motor because they built it to comply with state of California ebike motor capacity rules for some reason, which means that it’s totally possible to just outlean what the motor can put out at which point it will drop you directly on your collarbone.
My EUC has a much stronger motor, an emergency power reserve and software to keep me off the ground no matter how hard I lean.
Also it has an easy handle that pops up from the top so I can wheel it along beside me, making this guy’s doodad totally unnecessary.
Grouping 3d printing and generative “AI” is a bizarre take.
I’m sure the bazingas who wrote it didn’t intend this but wasn’t the guy who referred positively to Elon musk secretly from the mirror universe where everyone is evil and bisexual and wears leather pants?
Vulgar!
