Comment Let him keep the debris (Score 1) 57
The best for both sides would be to let him keep the debris. No cost for NASA and he could probably sell it to some collector for a lot more than the price of a few shingles and a piece of drywall etc.

The volocopter in the linked article's picture is registered in Germany as an ultralight aircraft. (D-M...)
AFAIK in France there is currently no set of rules that would permit flying regular passengers (not "air experience bla bla") with ultralight aircraft and I heavily doubt this will change before 2024 or even at any foreseeable point in the future.
Gee, apparently you are not aware that carbon (and glass etc.) fibers do work under compression. It's done for instance in the spar caps of composite airplane wings where according to beam load theory one spar cap has tension loads (the lower one in most cases) and the other one is subjected to compression loads. This has been certified airplane stuff since at least the 60s with fiberglass and since at least the late 70s with carbon fibers.
Obviously the more the applied compression force is parallel to the fibers and the straighter they are in the resin matrix, the better they can support it. Resin alone could never do this.
Well, since you almost have a new car, that's hardly surprising.
Period.
That's more or less the same level of confrontation over Wifi access which we get with the kids.
+1 Oh yes. It's really hard to put it down before the last page.
You're right. I should have said internet service...
I have been in the military and I fully agree with you the military grown stuff but that's true for *any* publicly funded project.
Controlling the servers the stuff runs on seems like a good idea in this case.
I'd say you're kind of foolish if your military has to rely on any IM service to get it's job done.
BTW Threema certainly is swiss grown, but not home-grown in a way that has anything to do with the country's military. It just happens to be swiss, so the headline is a little misleading.
You do. p(success) = 0.999,999 ^ 1,000,000 , which is still >0.
Bah, "petite" does fit everywhere...
No, seriously, I'd have to pack my wife as she wouldn't ever talk to me again if I went alone...
What an utterly wrong approach to a hopefully unique situation in most of our lives. This fucking virus is not funny and we would of course be much better off without it, but here comes the unexpected occasion to do all the things we've always wanted to do but didn't have or allow us the time to do. And there are plenty of them, even while being confined at home.
"position in space to within 200 to 300 meters"
I'd hate to miss the LM on the other side of a hill by that margin while the oxygen supply of my backpack is running out...
People will buy anything that's one to a customer.
