OceanGate’s cofounder wants to send 1,000 people to a floating colony on Venus by 2050, and says we shouldn’t stop pushing the limits of innovation
this lends credence to the stealth comrade theory, btw

Make the space station out of carbon fiber too. I’m sure everything will be fine!
the Venera probes failed because they were sent up by commies, our captains of industry will effortlessly outshine their Marxist works

@kuna Also note that at that altitude, the temperature in Venus’s stratosphere is a positively freezing 30 ℃ or so.
The real problem is that Venus is short on hydrogen, so getting back up into orbit from the Venusian stratosphere … well, good luck with that.
(It’d make a good platform for a crewed research station, but a lousy prospect for colonization.)
is stealth comrade theory a thing? I googled it and the only result is your thread on masto
I probably coined it, in response to the theory that Stockton Rush (what a Rand-ass name) was actually a comrade trying to reduce our count of billionaires
ok it’s a good one. It can apply to musk’s unintentional mask-off style of capitalism that other ceos will simp for and copy.
anyway, because I love sharing podcasts - this two-parter about Rush is gold: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/105-behind-the-bastards-29236323/episode/part-one-stockton-rush-inventor-of-118084105/ https://www.iheart.com/podcast/105-behind-the-bastards-29236323/episode/part-two-stockton-rush-inventor-of-118200435/
BtB is always gold. they’ve done a couple episodes on generative AI so far that are amazing too
It’s true. Loved the generative AI one and the whole Vince McMahon saga was epic.
May Guillermo Söhnlein be the Henry Hudson of Venus.
