Not enough oil in the Ploiesti oil fields. TURNING POINT: A HISTORY OF GERMAN PETROLEUM IN WORLD WAR II AND ITS LESSONS FOR THE ROLE OF OIL IN MODERN AIR WARFARE https://apps.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/1020261.pdf Germany was using 9.5 million barrels more oil than it was producing 1940.

What the Germans need on the eastern front is more people working on railway construction and maintenance.

FYI. Computers in the Saturn 5 rocket.

There is now the threat is from the Soviet Union and communist insurgency worldwide instead of Germany being the problem.

That was flawed thinking as Germany never had the ability to project power beyond Europe.

I think FDR would continue as the depression is still going and I think FDR would like to lead America out of the depression. This time he will not have the war spending to lead America out of the great depression. This could mean less stress and better health for FDR. To bring about the major...

I am not sure why FDR would not run again just because there was no ww2.

A lot depends on how much of a threat Stalin sees the Catholic church as. I could see Opus Dei being a target for the NKVD. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opus_Dei How the rest of the Catholic world reacts will be interesting.

How many of the radios would work or what range they would have is hard to say. I suspect the Soviets had a lot more problem...

Hard to say what the price per kilo would be. A lot will depend on who is running the space trucking business. In the longer-term capacity a payload of 550 tonnes per launch, will be useful for very useful for sustaining a large space programme.

That sounds like the ship in a bottle problem.

The problem with rebellions in Ireland was the number of spies working for the crown among the rebels. In the Irish war of independence, the Irish had a better spy network than the British had.

Indeed. Both the French and American revolution were a big influence on the rebels. The last rebellion before this was almost 100 years before this 1689–91. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Williamite_War_in_Ireland As you say the major discontent was with landlords and the tithe to the Anglican...
