American engineering

Don't you ever look at our moon again faggot.

More advanced than the US shuttle despite being a copy of the US shuttle with fucked up plans thrown in by the CIA for shits and giggles?

Okay Muhammad.

THE FEDS ARE HERE

Buran made one unmanned test flight. Then the post-Soviet Russians left it sitting in a poorly maintained hangar for years, until one day the roof collapsed and crushed poor Buran.

From what I've read, Buran seemed like it might actually be a slight improvement on the Shuttle. It's a shame it never got to do much of anything.

I've been to space.

Space Shuttle Buran Heat Shield THERMAL BLACK TILE.Rare.OK 1.02. Serial № 11F35.

>le do it better yourself argument
why the FUCK would Finland need to build a space shuttle lmao? that shit would bankrupt us. but for real, if you gave Finland the same budget as the burgers had, I guarantee the plane wouldn't look like it was knit by my grandma lol.

Which is why it never flew right? It was simply too advanced for space flight.

You know only 2 of the 139 shuttle launches had accidents right? That's actually a really good track record compared to basically every other space program. Also those panels you see are designed to come off as small replaceable units, so that if/when a section is damaged, it's replaced for the next flight. It wasn't uncommon for over half the panels to be replaced after a flight.

The Chinese destroyed the global economy using science that was available to first-year university biology students.

The mall-sharters are orders of magnitude above the chinksects. It's a pity that the Jews are killing them.

As compared to, what, user?

you lot would use rotting fish for heat shields

it was ironic user. Of course there is no finnish space shuttle... I know the only other nation that built one was the russians. (It actually flew and was better in many ways to the american one...) i think the French also had one in the works, but that's pretty much it.

What are ablative materials?

No guts, no glory.

Are you talking about how messy the heat shield tiles look? How would you arrange them?

america will always be the king of space.
you madmen literally walked on the actual moon, in the 1960s.

for reference, it was still legal to hunt abbos in australia in the 1960s, and people still primarily rode horses.

> muh DOHC
over engineering is not good engineering

My butthole is arguably better than 10/10 pussy, just like (You) are arguably heterosexual.

If you can't afford it, why are you critiquing it? Finland doesn't even have a space agency or program, so why would you conclude that your people are even capable of constructing such a device?

>lol we're not as good as you
>but if we were we'd be better than you

You are one stupid stupid mother fucker.

is bad engineering good engineering?

What's wrong with it? It's just dirty. I don't understand what you find haphazard or lazy about it.

is it covered it in tape? Kek

So much cope

If flew to space unmanned and then landed itself unmanned.

let us know if you ever make it off the ground.

Uh, Russia did everything the shuttle did
Elektra is the first shuttle
The US shuttle is a compromise the air force force fucked over to get to the x37b
China has their dragon, and soon enough even India will have their sky shart
As to why?
What did the shuttle ever do?
Satellite deployment is done via rocket

Fin fags. Pioneers in space. Jk pioneers of half elves half human looking freaks

One of the best days of my life was when I got to drink with a Belgian man (who had never been to USA) and tell him stories of V8 shitboxes, preservative-packed "food-like products" like Spam and Velveeta and Taco Bell beef, and backyard bonfires where my friends and I shoot flaming arrows at soda bottles full of gasoline. He was totally incredulous and thought I was making it all up until I produced pictures.

Except it did fly ,it launched,orbited the Earth and landed itself automatically.

do you even understand what material it is made of?

iirc the shuttle was the el cheapo version nasa had to use after their more advanced plans were shot down by budget cuts

Haha ahmed is on fire today

except you are wrong here. the ussian space shuttle flew to space and came back. and i think it was all on autopilot. well at least that is what i saw on a jewtube documentary ...

Based fatso

If they had capitalism, the space race would have ended with interstellar travel. Such a shame.

The reason that the shuttle was shit, and believe me it was kind of sucky, is because its' main purpose was to capture Soviet satellites if the Cold War went hot.

No shit ahmed

Oh wow a 4 hour "space flight" what is this 1961?

The lumpiness of the space shuttle helps with heat dissipation.

Can you show us an example of fine engineering from your people?

Is that euro speak for I am jealous of America?

>It wasn't uncommon for over half the panels to be replaced after a flight.
Maybe if you'd made them out of better materials than McDonalds styrofoam containers you wouldn't have to replace them as often. Typical Americans with your obsession with disposable throwaway goods.

>if
Nice cope.

Kek fucking americans have an utter inability to self-criticize and shit like this gets the okay from mainstream manufactureres.

Why is it that Americans haven't accomplished shit in space ever since running out of Nazi scientists?

space shuttle would go up for weeks. Some russian glider going into the upper atmosphere for a few hours doesn't count.

SR-71 was more of a space craft than the Buran even.

cope more, seething burger

then why you dont shut your genghis mouth ?
the day when you have a finnish space shuttle and it is better than the americans, you can make this thread. until then shut your mongol mouth and admire

How would you go about sealing the joints between ceramic panels in an aesthetically pleasing way?

What did russia build that was even comparable to the TR-3B?

Terrible. If you're paid someone is getting fucked. And it isnt m to f

OP is a faggot as usual, The panels are intended to 'flake' incase the is too much of a pressure difference caused by heat and vaporizing materials under the first layer, It looks like dimply blankets for the same reason golf balls have dimples, something to do with air pockets reducing friction or something.

shut up. racist white men have only hurt america!

Is your flag on the moon?

Haha kiwi btfo and seething

>SR-71
>stealth
>bomber
and you call yourself a burger

It did fly unmanned, full autopilot, and landed successfully in 1988 after orbiting earth. Space shuttle never could fly unmanned. Russia simply ran out of money but their engineering was top notch. Russia lost fewer people to space flight than U.S. yet sent more people to space...

That's rural antics in any country.

Beyond the Press

by allah I'll give you a taste of my rake

I'm sure you are aware: The shuttle was designed with 1960's technology and materials. Yet despite this the fundamental method of protection is still the same in more modern systems. Ablative thermal protection is still the most cost effective means of reentry shielding.

>I guarantee the plane wouldn't look like it was knit by my grandma lol.
Easy to say when you never had to build one.

In America, we call this "Monday-morning quarterbacking." Hope your English class had American slang in it.

Shut your crooked fucking mouth Nigel before I revoke your moon privileges.
