I'm curious -- does anybody know if the two side cores in a Falcon Heavy can actually be used as Falcon 9 rockets in independent launches without additional modifications -- launch as Falcon Heavy, land, refuel, launch as three Falcon 9s? Not that I can imagine any reason that kind of pace would be necessary, but just curious how different the side cores are from the centre core, and how different those cores are from Falcon 9.

Well, if Space based Solar Power sats are a viable thing, then that is one commercial market which presumably will need continual launches for building new capacity, repair and maintenance.

So how many years constructing things at EML1 would we have to do before we can go some place interesting? 20? 30?

I wonder if GRRM is furiously writing Osha scenes for ADWD now, inspired by this casting.

The men in the cast outnumber the women by a lot, so reducing the number of female characters doesn't seem likely.

I always thought she was 50-60.

So... in the books she's a MILF or a GILF?
In the show, she's a WILF (Wilding I'd Like to.... )

Female riders were used in Lord of the Rings movies for male Rohan riders. Obviously just for way in the background shots.
