Greatest thing your country has done for the world

Mars One, LOL. We're talking about SpaceX, the American company. "[Helping] humanity establish a permanent, self-sustaining colony on Mars within the next 50 to 100 years". The Mars One mission has been called out repeatedly for not having the technology, the money, or a realistic plan to get people to Mars and keep them alive once they’re there.

The US has the biggest budget for spaceexploration by far,spendingover six times more than China, according to OECD figures. "From the first moon landing to the International SpaceStation, the US government agency NASA has been leadingspace exploration since its creation in 1958". If that's not DOMINATING I don't know what is.

Lego, I guess
And the Niels Bohr atom thing
Maybe C++, that was a countryman as well

>LOL, no the Russians had the first man in orbit, the russians beat you at every step including carry out the race longer, all you did was go to the moon, fucking nice.
Yeah and Russia failed at that because they were a poor backwards shithole that only got to space first because they were hiding their progress. Once sputnik was launched and they revealed their progress, the US closed the gap pretty easily and to this day Russia hasn't done anything remotely close to say Apollo 11 or Curiosity

We've won almost every "engagement" retard, its just the wars as a whole drag on and have no clear objectives.

Jackass, Space X doesn't have the legal right to colonize mars, the outer space treaty explictly states no person is allowed to claim any part of space, meaning that for spacex to enforce any rules or regulation they'd need to establish themselves as a new soviergn nation, and considering literally all of their capital is on earht they're fucked six ways from sunday.

Also exporting a lot of food, on huge interest-free loans to the Allies in both world wars. And giving shelter to hundreds of thousands of Jews escaping from the Holocaust and East European pogroms, and other millions of Euro immigrants escaping Europe's wars.

That's about it.

The only reason why the Soviet Union made the first strides in the space race was because there was no upper limit on sovereign airspace. The US let the Soviets get up there first to set a precedent in case people got upset.

Didn't Biro's first ballpoint patent fail because the ink was too thick or something like that?

Didn't Biro's first ballpoint patent fail because the ink was too thick or something like that?

He patented and manufactured his fist successful design in Argentina partnering up with Meyne, that's when the RAF gave them a contract to manufacture pens for their pilots.

Later, at the end of the war, BIC bought their design and patented worldwide.

How uninformed are you? Mars One has been pretty much confirmed to be a scam at this point. Do you even know who Elon Musk is? His SpaceX company has made massive leaps in rocket engineering over the past few years.

I think it's cool. I don't personally listen to it, but improv is an awesome show of skill, wit, speed. Adding musical instruments and having a group of people make music together with no rules or constraints. It's as American as something can be. I'm not saying it's good music, that's subjective, and I don't personally like it. But you gotta admit, that's badass

OP here: the 54% thing was something i saw a while back about a study by MITI in Japan in 2008 saying about countries contributions to the world in notable inventions. I can't remember sauce and it probably is stretched. I reckon UK still takes top spot for most inventions though unlikely to be that high. UK Inventors/scientists include:
>Isembard Kingdom Brunel
>Michael Faraday
>Alexander Graham Bell
>James Watt
>James Clerk Maxwell
>Isaac Newton
>George Stephenson
>Charles Babbage
Etc.

>In October 1939, just after the outbreak of World War II in Europe, the President of the United States Franklin D. Roosevelt received a letter from physicist Albert Einstein and his Hungarian colleague Leo Szilard, calling to his attention the prospect that a bomb of unprecedented power could be made by tapping the forces of nuclear fission. The two scientists, who had fled from Europe in order to escape Nazism, feared that Hitler-Germany was already working on the problem. Should the Germans be the first to develop the envisaged "atomic bomb," Hitler would have a weapon at his disposal that would make it possible for him to destroy his enemies and rule the world.

Britain:

- Invented the television, telephone, world wide web, jet engine, steam engine, hydraulic press, stainless steel, waterproof fabric, incandescent lightbulb, marine chronometer, modern cement, and the chocolate bar
- Developed the world's first railways
- The industrial revolution
- The agricultural revolution
- The Theories of Gravity, Evolution, Electromagnetism and Aerodynamics
- Discovery of more elements than any other nation
- Discovery of the neutron and electron
- Splitting of the atomic nucleus
- The English language
- Most major sports, including association football, rugby league, rugby union, cricket, golf, curling, lawn bowls, tennis, table tennis, squash, badminton, hockey, darts, snooker and water polo
- Christianisation of [parts of] Germany and the Benelux through Anglo-Saxon missionaries
- Insular art
- The largest Empire in the history of the world
- Blockade of Africa

It's funny that you didn't argue his claim about music, when those will probably be the longest lasting achievements or creations by the USA

Britain created a lot of bad ass shit but its greatest invention is America

>Why do pseuds pretend jazz is some haute patrician music when it's literally just random noises produced by illiterate negroids? It's literally the hip hop of pre-WW2 era.
Jazz, like hip-hop, is both fun and impressive when done well and some plebian's cherrypick when it isn't.

>Only because of a dick-measuring contest with the communists, NASA literally has to beg Congress for funding nowadays

And it still gets more funding than any other space agency, by far.

>"Breaking news, rich country can support innovative movements and markets"
You can discredit this entire thread this way. There's a reason why the US and Europe have so many accomplishments

>Communism killed itself, but only after killing Nazism

It would have taken Europe over from the Nazis if the US wasn't there, not like the Brits could have done anything about it.

>Literally the only reason nukes were made in the US is because intelligent Europeans fled from strong European powers.

I'm not sure if you understand what the US is.

We nuked the japs. Twice. You're welcome world.

Why are people trying to dismantle every American's claim. They have done a lot of great things such as spreading English as a global trade language, creating the Internet, setting a model presidential government and of course going to the moon. Just because they're rich is no reason to put them down as that is also something to be proud of.
