SpaceX VS NASA, AI for Space Science, Black Hole Crushing Itself | Q&A 191
We're back from hiatus! In this week's Questions and Answers show, I talk about what will happen when the expansion of the Universe reaches the speed of light, how I feel about SLS delays, what's happening with James Webb, and more...

If gravity shifts enough to change tides, why cant we feel it?
The gravity of the Moon is actually causing the ground under your feet to shift up a few feet, but it's so gradual, you don't feel it.
Are there any satellites or launches of Gateway hardware still planned to launch on SLS? Will the rocket only be used to launch the Orion capsule and eventually the exploration upper stage? Are other vehicles able to reach a crew capsule out to the Gateway (i.e. Crew rating Falcon Heavy, or ferrying from Dragon/Starliner in orbit to HLS) or will SLS be the only vehicle that can send/transfer humans to the Gateway? I had heard in the past that Europa Clipper, and all Gateway hardware was mandated by Congress to launch on SLS, but feel like I have heard that some of the hardware have switched to launch on SpaceX Rockets. I just was interested to hear if there were any official changes/updates there, and ultimately how many of these will be built/flown. Thanks! - Sky Young
It seems like the approach SpaceX uses, (keep launching until it works) is faster than the way SLS has been developed (research and develop until ready for launch). Which do you think is better?
