Most impressive.

It had a means to right itself - the trouble was that after the second time it bounced off the moon, it landed inside a fucking crevasse - one tight enough that the rocket propelled grappling hooks on its feet couldn't budge it once it came to a rest, and which meant that all the solar panels placed so that even if it landed on its side it'd get enough sunlight were only getting a few minutes of sunlight when the sun was directly above the crevasse.

This is also fairly common for spacecraft - 90% of all faults with spacecraft could be fixed by either a person outside the craft just giving something a kick to unlodge whatever's gotten stuck, or by designing all landers like those stupid self-righting flippy robots from robot wars competitions.

>Planetes
My melanin enriched friend.

I tried watching that series but I couldn't get past the third episode because the MC was so insufferable. Should I try again?

so much potential, wasted on anime BS

I remember liking it mostly for the setting and the aesthetic, so if you can go in for that, I could recommend it.

I also liked Elysium for the same reasons so make of that what you will

It picks up about halfway through, which isn't a glowing recommendation to honest. But try to stick with it for the setting.

The MC gets worse before he gets better.

I wish you luck, OP, here's my dump

I like stuff like this. It's plausibly near future-looking without going for the while tin-of-sardines-welded-together-in-the-60s look

Probably a bit unrealistic, but I love the commericalised space

To be fair, the main reason we got into space in the first place is because the US and Soviets wanted to show off their rocket technology.

I agree, though. This lack of space travel does suck.

>realistic
>post tightly connected space wheel
come the fuck on.
You cannot make a constantly rotating airtight joint in space dude.

The problem was mainly that after a near perfect landing the damn hooks to attach the thing to the asteroid didn't function correctly.
Thanks austria.

>another rotating joint space station
They look cool, but... how?
If you have the means to make a joint that can rotate infinitely without too much friction which is also completely airtight, this is how a station would look.
Unfortunately if you had that you might as well have a room temperature superconductor that keeps you in a magnetic field pressed to the bottom of the craft in place of artificial gravity.
