Coss 931 Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 https://www.nationthailand.com/news/30400232 Is Xmas, the Thai equivalent of April 1? Minister Anek Laothamatas announced on Thursday that Thailand will produce high-tech satellites in four years, before advancing to build a spaceship with a weight of 300 kilograms for a mission to the moon. The ship will be powered by a xenon ion thruster, the same propulsion method used by Nasa for interplanetary space missions. The spacecraft will travel at 11 kilometres per hour to the moon, before slowing to enter lunar orbit at 2kph. Thailand’s first lunar mission will be officially announced in January, Anek said. "the spacecraft will travel at 11 kilometres per hour to the moon," so :: distance to moon = 384, 400km @ 11 Km/h = 34, 945 hrs or 1,456 days or just 4 days shy of 4 years, travel time. yeah that sounds right and then another 4 years to get back and none of this happens for at least 4 years when they are gonna start to 'advance to build' odds on this really happening?

But it will only weigh 300 kilograms. (I am sure Coss left that one for me) Link to post Share on other sites

My Penis is hungry 313 Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 ION Thruster is quite common (Sounds like Star Trek I know), remember it's acceleration, has to be just to get out of gravity, All in all it's not likely to happen, but it is possible Link to post Share on other sites

buffalo_bill 292 Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 Xenon ION thrusters can be found at Panthip Plaza in the plug and play version and fitted to an empty Singha barrel you got the spaceship. Through the taphole you may pee outside, gentlemen only. Link to post Share on other sites
My Penis is hungry 313 Posted December 29, 2020 Report Share Posted December 29, 2020 I remember first time I went to Wat Dhammakaya for ironically work, they wanted a TV channel. I couldn't help but think the Temples looked a lot like a Thai Girls boob The sheer indulgence to wealth was over whelming, pat to pray for wealth and you'd be wealthy. The Thai version of Born Again scam religions. The vaults have incredible protection and contain a lot I am told Link to post Share on other sites
