Human Self Inflicted Suffering

Human behaviour are closely tied to their behaviour, but they have limited ability to change their behaviour. Why? Because they are born with bad inert leaning ability, easily influenced by the devils in themselves. They need to be guided to move in the right direction, such as not hurting others, not to be greedy etc. Until one day, when they learn to live at peace with each other, they need to recognise that all of them need the same basic needs and there are enough to go around if they are not greedy! The world need to behave in a way that they do not hurt each other, especially the so called leaders. Those at the top are the ones with agenda, that lead the crowd to suffer for no logical reasons. The lack of trust among human, lead to all negotiations failing and the suffering continues!

Keeping Time

 Keeping Time is closely linked to everything that exists in our world, not sure about those outside our little world.  It gives perspective to our current state of existence, it helps to keep things that happened in the past and future, by giving it a place with a timeline.  The second adds up, 60 seconds in 1 minute, 3600 seconds in 1 hour, 86400 seconds in 1 day, 31,536,000 in 1 year. Keeping time is important to all that exists in our world!

8 billion for 3 Frigates??

8 billion is a lot of money to spend on 3 advanced warships, this money probably can buy 12 or 14 capable ships in less than 10 years!  A naval program that takes 15-20 years to complete is not meaningful anymore, the advancement during made during this period in modern era would make the ships obsolete! Decision makers are not thinking right, things become obsolete in a much faster pace than anyone can imagined. 

Breaking My Marathon PB 4Hr47Min26Sec in 2025

My marathon PB was run at a pace of 6min48.72sec, back in Dec 2014. It’s not fast at all, but I having a hard time trying to better it in the last 10 years! Why? What is the reason?  Because I am not discipline enough to do all the necessary long run during the 3 months before the actual marathon run. I need to hit the 4 times 32km run just before the race and also the weekly half marathon or 22 to 23 km run 2 months before the 4 times 32 Km runs.  The training is to prepare the body to be accustomed to running long distances   at a certain pace, so that you can replicate the same effort during the actual marathon run.

RXN JMMS ship announcement when ?

The RXN JMMS ship has been talked about for maybe the last 10 or more years, but there is still no official announcement yet till today 11 Jan 2025.  A lot of people are curious about the details of the ship, how much bigger will the new ship than the current ones in service? Will it have a through deck for aircraft? Of course it would be better to have a through deck like an aircraft carrier, but hopefully something different from the conventional design where you have a tower in the middle side of the ship!  Hopefully it would be like at the rear end of the ship where you can see the whole deck operation! Anything bigger than 200 metre would be a thumbs up, it make little sense and a waste of material and effort to build a smaller ship! The country itself is so small and without any hinterland to say at all, it make sense to have a movable platform to at least keep some hardware away from any possible enemies! Hopefully at least 3 ships are built to a larger scale to have a ...

Earth Can Saved 2.443 trillion dollars in 2023

Human can saved 2.443 trillion in the year 2023 if   human can stopped fighting each other!  Everyone of us on Earth would agreed to this same statement but the world leaders just cannot seemed to agree and continued to fight each other! Because human is just inherently stupid to realise this basic statement!

Do People want a country that topped every other countries?

Do ordinary people want their country to topped every other country in all measurable economic categories? Or be a country that all citizens live happily? I think being able to live happily most of our life would be a desirable state of being! People nowadays are crowded by greed and materialism, so much so that they forgot a happy life is the best thing to achieve.  Why go through all the troubles to be at the top but not being happy most of the time? It can be so tiring to live a hectic lifestyle just to measure up to the rest of people!

SCSM 2024, 1 Dec 2024 Sunday

I completed my 16th full marathon at the Standard Chartered Singapore Marathon 2024, on 1 Dec 2024 Sunday. The race was supposed to start at 4:25am but my start pen E only get to crossed the start line at 5.10am.  The race organisation seemed to have dropped in standard, or maybe the race should be controlled in terms of the number of participants.  The road closures were not organised properly, we were just at the gate of the start point, but there were no road closure of that stretch of road. Race participants were made to wait for the flowing traffic, when the race had started! I intend to talk about my race but I just had to get some vending of the lousy race organisation when we had paid  a hundred or more dollars on the race and not counting the transportation cost. Roads at the race entrance should be totally closed to facilitate better human traffic flow. Otherwise please limit the number of participants! The route plan was bad as well, those who reached the 30 km...

Human Not using techno to benefit the masses

Human is not using technology to help themselves but instead it has been used to benefit the evil human in their society! People are dying in wars, dying of hunger or dying of unhealthy food and more! The most misused of technology is in war, who get a budget of hundred of billions, the defence ministries in most countries! Human need basic change in their brain to get it right but they have a huge difficulty in getting it done, just look at the wars in the last 5000 years!

SpaceX 79th launch completed on 15 August 2024

SpaceX performed its 79th launch of 2024 on 15 August, deploying 2 satellites for Maxar. At this rate, no other entity or any country has a chance of catching up with SpaceX! SpaceX just has a much much better launch system, it would take years for anyone to equal them or maybe not!

Human need to move away from combustion engine

With the current technology, it’s difficult for human to think about moving away from combustion engine. It’s the only way they can think of that will generate sustainable energy to travel over distances! Generating sustainable energy without burning too much fuel is always the issue with transportation over significant distances! Or perhaps the fuel source is the issue with human travel!

Earthlings can look to solve more immediate problems

Rather than wasting money on some idealistic research, earthlings can use the resources to solve more immediate problems! People are easily mesmerised by some sweet talking “experts” and over looking so many more pressing issues.  Money spent on weapons are not to fight aggressive aliens from another world, but to fight other neighbouring earthlings.

Earth Space Program is hindered by lack of Practice

Practice make perfect. If people of Earth are really interested in exploring space, they should start practicing putting the hardware and people required on regular missions. There can be 1001 things that can go wrong on a mission, without live practice, it can never happen. People could lose their lives anytime out there and this would have to be accepted. Testing all the hardware and people would need to start somewhere. Putting a space station out there would not help improve the technology needed. People would need to start travelling to places or a destination point to know how well their hardware and living spaces work in long duration travel.  Without such practice, would they be able to reach say travel to the moon and back successfully a hundred times ? People are naive in their thinking that what they build would work all the way to Mars and back, even so would the physical conditions of the people take the beating of travelling in space in such cramped condition?

FH10-SpaceX 65th Launch 2024

FH10 completed its mission successfully on 25 June 2024, this is SpaceX 10th launch of the Falcon Heavy rocket. It carried only a mass of 5,000 kg and landed its 2 side boosters at the land pad at KSC. This is SpaceX 65th mission of 2024, excluding the the 2 Starship IFTs.

SpaceX Starship 4th IFT 6 June 2024

SpaceX is targeting to launch the 4th IFT of Starship today 6 June 2024 at 8.50 am ET. We hope to see the first stage reach a soft landing or splash down in the Gulf of Mexico and the Starship simulate a landing in the Indian Ocean if everything goes according to plan. The test just completed, both the Superheavy and Starship made it back in 1 piece, what an amazing feats!

SpaceX 44th launch of 2024

SpaceX just completed its 44th launch of 2024, with 2 satellites for Maxar on 2 May from Vandenberg Space Force Base , California. The booster B1061 is the 3rd to complete 20th launch and the 302 booster landings to date. The next SpaceX launch is 3rd May 2024.

SpaceX Starship first touchdown

SpaceX Starship 3rd ITF is likely in later part of March 2024, looking forward to the first successful touchdown of the both booster and Starship !  Controlling the engine sufficiently would be critical to achieving the landing either on land or at sea based platform.  Looking to see the first payload by the 5 or 6th launch. If the 3rd test can see the Starship coming back for a controlled landing, then progress should be fast. Should see at least 4 to 5 Starship flights or test in 2024.

Who control human activities?

Is there a controller/s who watch over human activities ? Fundamental question that no one can answer, but a difficult question indeed!  The ultimate question that everyone is curious about and also being exploited to benefit those who wants control! 

Year 2024

The year 2024 just started! Hopefully this would turn out to be a better year for Earth! Less fighting amongst the earthlings and more helping each other! People need to be less selfish and less greedy, consumerism and greed is killing the environment!

SpaceX Starship progress in 2023

 SpaceX Starship did reached orbit of around 150km during the 2nd Test flight on 18 Nov 2023. It was unfortunate that the Starship had to be given a self destruct command to terminate its flight due to lost of telemetry! It had overcome the most difficult part of stage separation and igniting the starship’s six engine in flight!  Not sure why it was mentioned as lost of telemetry as the reason for having to destroy it! Controlling Starship should have been a simple task, probably due to engine control failure! Hopefully the 3rd test flight would see Starship do at least 1 full orbit or do a re-entry attempt!
