Seems like it. SSTL (who made this satellite) do loads of earth observation stuff already so the MOD probably just bought time on those satellites like you said.

You can’t really grow the same crop in the same field season after season (without fertiliser), because they’ll sap the specific nutrients they need from the soil. If you do that over and over eventually the soil wont have any food for that crop. Growing something different each season that takes different nutrients from the soil lets it recover the other ones. I don’t know how it recovers on its own, circle of life stuff probably. Modern farming can cheat by artificially replenishing the nutrients with fertiliser.
I think the atmosphere can increase in volume when it gets warm because it’s not a proper closed system, so the pressure doesn’t go up in the same way.
I too watched veritasium today
They meant to say you interpreted the comment incorrectly, but that got autowronged to “commenting correctly”.

They mean outrun in terms of acceleration/speed in a straight line, not outlast
That is well cool
The radioactive source isn’t used for power in smoke detectors, it’s used to detect smoke. What small scale devices use radioactivity actually for power?
They’ll test it on the ground and flying slowly first before going fast to make sure it’s safe enough.
Some phones can already do that, like wireless powershare (Samsung)
In my head it was Elon who sketched the truck and told everyone “make that exactly how I drew it”
That’s a shame, I was looking into getting one but if the hardware issues are widespread maybe not worth it
Yeah it’s 2 years of OS updates and apparently 4 years of security updates. That’s what’s making me reluctant to get one too.
Asus ZenFone?
I found it much better than the day after, probably because of the smaller scale of the story. The build up at the start of Threads is probably one of the most stress inducing things I’ve watched, it feels so real.
