The lunar lander chosen for the project is actually a launch vehicle of comparable capabilities.

According to some theories, some remains of a pre-big-bang state may have remained in the form of certain irregularities in the matter in the universe. Studying the big bang in ever greater detail and more accurate models can put bounds on such processes. By studying the distribution of mass and background radiation in the observable universe and comparing them to these statistical bounds we can discard or validate such theories.

So yes, this can be relevant to whatever might have been before the big bang.

Lots of products have versions with relatively small differences that sell at very different prices. Itâ(TM)s a common strategy of price segmentation.

An apology should be the first thing you send when you realize someone else seems hurt. Regardless of how justified you feel your actions were. An apology is not an admission of guilt.

O-RAN is a digital antenna. It takes a chunk if radio spectrum and digitizes it with an analog-to-digital converter, and vice versa. It is an antenna connected with 100G ethernet.

Everything else about the 5G network is software running on virtualized hardware. Not too different than any other VM you might have in the cloud, with the exception of some real-time guarantees, management and being physically closer to antenna for lower latency (tens of km rather than the more typical hundreds or thousands of km to the regional aws datacenter)

Do cephalopods dream of aquatic sheep?

This telescope has a very wide field of view - several times wider than the moon. With tens of thousands of planned Starlink satellites they will appear is almost all frames taken. There is a way to remove them, but it affects image quality.

Rockets! John Carmackâ(TM)s Armadillo Aerospace was a low-budgetpioneer of the VTVL rocketry path that Elon followed.

Bring back ink marking voterâ(TM)s finger. Excellent method to prevent a lot of voting fraud.

Nothing new.

Photovoltaic panels have been a proven solution for off-grid applications for decades.

But most of humanity lives densely enough to have a grid. And photovoltaics are still a nearly invisible slice in the grid energy pie.

Good excuse in corona times. But the real idea is to reduce the contact of food with humans that need to get paid.

Sound will probably use a phone app.

I expect Apple to use such a change as an excuse to make the Mac more iPhone-like. This probably means locked down and apps purchased only through Apple Store.
