Yeah, space Force bought the launches? With star shield, the DOD bought space on starlink sats.
You taking neutron? That still has a disposable upper stage.
US buys launches at the same rate as everyone else. NASA chipped in a few million to get falcon 9 off the ground, but they haven’t been subsidizing for years.
This guy was only killed afterwards after being taken away, but plenty of other people we shot or run over right behind him.

Looks more like the mitchells vs the machines to me.
But a very small portion of human activity is developing chips or launching rockets. Most of it is manufacturing disposable junk or building roads/buildings.
Good vid from real engineering on the subject
SpaceX launches in 2023 were about 0.02 megatons of CO2 directly. I don’t know how fugitive emissions from fueling and defueling, especially on starship with methane.

200,000kg/launch, 100 launches.
Plastic takes thousands of years to decompose, so wouldn’t it act as a carbon sink until then?
96 as of September 29 https://spaceexplored.com/spacex-launches-2024/
And they’re on track for ~130 this year.
Hmm, if we’re saying everything is done with green energy, could plastic bottles be carbon negative? Make the plastic from algie or bean feed stock so that it acts as a form of carbon capture.
I think that’s a whole lot less plastic than if it was the whole thing.
If you have single use bottles, aluminum like soda cans is lowest impact. But any reusable solution (meal, plastic, or glass) is much much better.
Reusable plastic bottles or metal are great, it’s the single use plastics that are really terrible.
Like charges repel. Putting raw electrons in a container would make a really good bomb.
Plus, the electrons would make new elements as they run into other atoms. You’d need electromagnetic containment to keep it from coming into contact with anything. Come to think about it, that’s pretty much what a particle accelerator is.
There are four lights!
I think it’s also a reference to the bavarian flag.
