    This didn't pass my sniff test. Each of the three key ethics; "Earth Care", "People Care", and "Fair Share", only appear once in the document. I feel like that is a clear rhetorica…

    I think there are two key imperatives that lead to company "psychopathy". The first imperative is a company must survive past its employees. A company is an explicit legal structur…

    FWIW, i think their description for the radiation shielding is fine. Your analysis is off. If we assume the spherical case, the mass of the shielding is proportional to surface are…

    I think other have already corrected you, but radiative cooling is probably the least common on the ground and the only viable option in space. I can help explain why. On earth, we…
