Some people think SpaceX's BFR may get costs to LEO down to $10/kg.
If my math works out, that gets your 100,000 tons of material in LEO for $900 million (transport costs only). Using BFR's estimated 165 tons/launch to LEO, that's about 600 trips.

"Settled Science"? Is that some new religion? It certainly has little in common with the falsifiable research basis of the science I used in school..
I'm not sure where you got the idea that chess is solved, but we're still a looong way from solving chess. We have only solved chess with 7 pieces, not the full 32, and unless quantum computers arrive in force, we have no shot at solving it in our lifetimes.

More like worst cast is it accidentally is triggering due to component failure or impact from a high-moving projectile/explosive..
I had a similar thought, but I think http://slashdot.org/comments.p... is a more likely explanation.
This seems like the most likely explanation -- thank you coward!
Currently Indigogo says that 2,575 people have contributed $1,175,564 ($457 per person).
But if you add up the people and amounts for the various perks, you get 330 people contributing $73,874 (223 per person).
Can someone explain the difference?
Thanks for the insults.. very informative.
Perhaps this XKCD will be of help: http://xkcd.com/1053/
For those clueless like me, PAC stands for Politicial Action Committee
I can forgive the headline and summary for not defining the acronym, but when the article itself also doesn't say, it's getting ridiculous.
Way to miss the point. According to Wikipedia, in 2012, 73% of Americans self-identified as "Christians".
Applying strong labels like "irrational" and "unintelligent" to that large of group of people is "irrational" and "unintelligent".
You're dealing with Stanch Atheists. Don't expect them to be rational or intelligent. They've gone tribal, circled the wagons, and are now locked into anti-religious flame wars and are unable to learn better.
Isn't painting with broad stokes fun! There's surely no actual rational, intelligent creatures in these enormous labels!
Simple explanation on this, actually. That article has a ton of comments, so I had to click "Load More Comments" before I could see your reply #46185253.
Do you guys know what you're doing, or are you just hacking?
