Could you share us a proof of concept or anything that might be a solution for the heat dissipation in space, at scale ?
You see, this is the difference between bullshit and not. I can claim "we'll do timetravel soon !", but unless I share some "things" (whatever they are) that might sustain that affirmation, this is just bullshit
Does it mean that no solution exists ? No. Just that today none are known (as far as I can tell).
This is the problem with European thinking, you have this built-in mindset that you think you're going to be so cool with a gotcha because I can't provide a "proof of concept" or solution right now for a problem that OTHER PEOPLE are working on. Sheesh, just get off your high horse and admit that other people that are smarter and harder working than you are going to solve problems you can't manage.
Your desire to call out bullshit is stronger than your ability to GSD.
Exactly! There's a quote I like to remember: "If I had listened to all the negativity and putative experts who expended so much energy telling me 'this is impossible, it will never work' I would never have gotten to where I am today." - E Holmes (Founder and CEO of Real-Time Cures)
People are working on problems I cannot manage (who could have known) and they cannot say anything about that but we have to trust them to bring results out of thin air ? Is this politics .. ?
If your personal accusations can be boiled down to : "shame ! you are not gullible!", then please know that, here in France, not being gullible is a compliment.
I guess we're redefining "the scientific community", cutting out those who were wrong each time? Do you consider the French Space Agency (CNES), former NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden, the European Space Agency to be part of the scientific community? I still vividly remember one interview where Elon started to tear up because Neil Armstrong and Gene Cernan publicly denied the feasibility of SpaceX's mission.
"Scientists" being detractors and everyone going online to comment about how something is impossible while the people doing the thing just do it then all the detractors quietly shrug it off until the next time is so consistent it feels like Groundhog Day. I'd really like to learn about why so many people get off by saying something that other people are working on is impossible.
