The political problem was choosing to develop shuttle in the first place. At the end of Apollo, NASA had the choice of improving rocketry or pivoting to space planes and made the wrong choice.

It also helps that there are now enough Starlink satellites that there is always one in the "hole" directly above the re-entering vehicle. With traditional satellites the signal would be blocked by the plasma at the angles required to hit the satellites.

The goal is rapid reusability (launch to orbit, land and launch again more-or-less immediately, basically the way commercial airliners operate).
It clearly needs some more work since you probably don't want to reuse half-melted fins, but they've now shown they can maintain control over both the booster and the upper stage during reentry, which is massive (in the previous flight both lost control at that stage).

and in the same article you can read "President of SpaceX"
which is synonymous to CEO, in fact it depends on the organization you get one or the other
Elon Musk is never addressed as CEO in any legal document, in fact, he is exclusively referred as main executive chairman (given he owns almost half the company and has 80% of the voting shares anyways)
the other official position of Elon Musk is CTO, chief technology officials, which in the business is synonymous to chief engineer
Gwyneth Shotwell is specially addressed as PRESIDENT OF SPACEX

Starship isn't even "successful". It's demonstrated that under the right conditions it's capable of returning from orbit — when empty — without entirely disintegrating prior to touchdown. At this point, it seems likely they'll be able to make it capable of achieving the basic functions of a rocket, but will it ever be able to live up to the more ambitious goals that make the prospect of starship so exciting? Maybe, but that question remains very much up in the air (no pun intended) and it seems highly unlikely it'll be either rapidly reusable or capable of safely returning humans from orbit any time soon. If those goals can't ultimately be achieved, then this platform's only real standout is immense size — which is pretty cool on its own, but hardly game-changing.

I think they don't want their ships anywhere near the Baltics Sea while upcoming NATO drills are going on. So in a way this is actually kind of a de-escalation.
Putin probably can't trust his own commanders to not make a fatal mistake by accidentally firing on a NATO vessel.

What are they going to do, show up with their only aircraft carrier? That Floating Tin Can was poorly designed to begin with, not to mention that it runs on diesel, and desperately needs maintenance. The damn thing is a Soviet Relic, that launch in 1985 and has been outdated ever since.
America, just by herself, has the largest Navy for a single country in the world. We own about half of all aircraft carriers currently sailing the oceans, and all 11 of them are nuclear power to boot. Besides US (11) and France (1), no other countries have nuclear powered aircraft carriers.
Now factor in NATO, which is quite **literally** the most powerful military force in all of human history, Putin would be fucked hard if his two-bit regime even sneezed on a NATO country.
I don't know what's going thru Putin's Soviet Era Boomer brain. Does he seriously believes parking a few of his floaty toys in are neighborhood is supposed to be intimidating or menacing to us? This isn't the Cold War era, America has the capability of targeting and shooting down whatever is in the sky, that is not supposed to be there, in a matter of minutes before it even reaches American air space. This isn't the display of power Putin thinks it is...

I hope we fuck with their ships when they get over here just like Russia would do to us if we sent ships to a small friendly island close to their border. We could send out hundreds of 'fishing boats' to get in their way or jam their electronics or something like that. Or say we found some under sea anomaly and we have to close international waters to investigate.

it's been 20 years since i've done real math. but that argument discounts the possibility it can be infinite. the f15 will be retired and it's entirely probable, it can retire undefeated (short of some end of world war). it's entirely possible it's service record is longer than it's future service record. so the assumption of starting with 1-1 i see as flawed.
as for the math, i was thinking the limit of 104/n as n approaches 0 is infinite. which may or may not be true, i honestly don't remember how to evaluate limits anymore.

F-35 is an export multi-role fighter (meaning it can be configured for air-to-air, air-to-ground, reconnaissance, command + control, or a mix and match of those.)
The F-22, on the other hand, is a US exclusive, dedicated air-to-air vehicle. It features a bunch of tech the US is not willing to put into an export model like the F-35, and it is optimized specifically for winning any air-to-air fight it encounters.

The US Air Force Operates [WAY more aircraft](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_active_United_States_Air_Force_aircraft) than just the F-16 and the F-35, although the 15, 16, 22, & 35 are the only fighters (unless you want to get into variants and derivatives).
The F-15 and F-22 are what's called air superiority fighters, they primarily focus on fighting other planes in the air. The are very specialized at it (when designing the F-15 a common saying was "not a pound for air to ground"). The F-16 and the F-35 are whats called multi-role fighters, they are kind of jack of all trades that are meant to handle both air to air and air to ground roles. Generally speaking multi-roles will be a jack of all trade, master of none when likened to a specialist (air superiority or ground attack). That is to say "whats the best fighter" may be the wrong question to ask, but rather "whats the best tool for the job". I chose the F-22 as an example over the F-35 because like the F-15 it is an air superiority fighter.

The F-22 is has thrust vectoring engines and is more maneuverable than the F-16. And to be honest, top speed isn't that important past a point these days when comparing modern fighters. The F-16 was designed at a time before stealth was a thing. It was originally conceived as a small, cheaper lightweight air to air fighter to compliment the larger, more expensive F-15. But overtime it evolved into the successful multirole platform we have today. The F-22 was designed using lessons learned from the F-117 Nighthawk stealth attack platform to be the biggest baddest air superiority fighter in the sky (originally meant to replace the F-15 and F-16 infact) at a time when the USAF still cared about beating the Soviets.
Also worth noting that when we are talking about fighting other planes in the air, we are not really talking about dog fighting. Today's air to air engagements are meant to take place BVR, or beyond visual range using radar and air to air missiles like the sparrow, sidewinder, or AMRAAM. Dogfighting with guns is a last resort and hasn't really been used as a primary means of air to air combat since Korea or Vietnam.

Yeah exactly this. They can't even consolidate the Dnipro side of Ukraine. It's a pipe dream if they think they're going to get to the baltics and beyond. NATO air superiority would eradicate their entire logistical network. Not to mention that their army is basically just a low skilled conscript army at this point operating on a pure numbers game. If Russia bring NATO into the fight, excepting the use of nuclear weapons, it's over for Russia.

So the stations he is talking about aren't classified as "bunkers" but as civilian shelters.
However they (used to) contain sleeping halls with beds, toilets, showers, fresh air filtering systems and so on. The train hall it self is designed with a small platform between the two rails so in case of emergency two trains are supposed to be parked in there with all doors open, enabling you to go from one platform to the other without using the stairs or elevators. Also the trains would provide more seats.
Capacity for each station (6 U Bahn, 3 S Bahn) was about 1080 people.

The last update to the existing plan was 1989.
So there is a lot of work to do to adapt it to the current threats (including cyber security etc.). But it's better than starting from nothing.
There is a similar situation, for example, withe the plans for the deployment of reserve troops for guard duty in the homeland. (Protecting airports, power plants and other vital infrastructure.) The last practical war games of that kind were in the 80s. While there is obviously a need to update the plans, there is at least a starting point.

I guess not few in East Germany would be even happy about it when looking at the large numbers of votes the pro-Russian party AFD and other very small right parties (Dritter Weg) are getting there. What is more crazy: you hear more about neofascists in East Germany and they often mumble about race, Great Germany, Germany for Germans, AH, Wehrmacht dreams and so on. All of it which does not fit well with the support for Russia they give - especially when you add the post war rapes of German women (and other nationalities) by Russian soldiers (my German grandma was saved by Poles from this shit so strange as it sounds), the wish of East Germans to be free from their communists (installed and controlled by the Soviet government), and now the not so unlikely happening that Russians may return. For me, these guys are schizophrenic.
