    Would an ultra coup Portuguese government implement the 'Plan of Lusaka'?

    The problem is that by the time of the "ultra" coup (which would almost necessarily either be led or have Arriaga as one of its prominent plotters) in the last months of the Estado Novo, Jorge Jardim had allienated Arriaga over the handling of the Wiriyamu Massacre in summer 73, Jardim had gone...

    Hail, Britannia: A New History

    Nah, Religious marriage is the norm there, There are no domestic civil unions (or even civil marriage) and common law statute/marriage are a minority (less than 100,000 legaly binding statutes, less than 5% of couples). It's not the same societal circumstances to what I was postulating (which is...

    Hail, Britannia: A New History

    Even the idea that Gay marriage is better/implies a higher form of acceptance than civil unions is very rooted in IRL, it's extremely easy to imagine an ATL where Marriage in the west are purely religious and symbolical with most homosexual couple rejecting it in favour of the more common and...

    Yeah, it's not a good idea to use Discord as a file hosting service for other sites anymore, they've been progressively limiting this for a few months.

    These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

    CosmicAsh said it's currently about 2.3-2.4 C above pre-industrial. IIRC, there's a good amount of Temperature increase lag so their world is probably not as warm as ours will be when we reach the same CO2 concentration, since they reached it "quicker"

    These Fair Shores: The Commonwealth of New England

    Put simply, more industrialised countries during the 20th century. Also more redundancies and ineficiencies in industries due to less globalisation/international trade and sovereignty/social reasons. TFS's world reached late 2010s CO2 concentration in the late 1950s

    Time After Time: Imprints of the Space Transportation System Booster

    In hindsight probably a slightly better arrangements of the external tanks would have been to have them partially supported in tandem (in a "V" or "U") by the booster through a larger interstage during the boost phase (with the orbiter in the middle of the V/U, still attached through the...

    If C16th Castille/Aragon/Portugal can convert Iberia to Catholicism, could a religious French monarchy do the same in the Maghreb in C19th?

    I'm talking about middle age North->South intra-iberian migrations, these happened and left a significant north-south genetic pattern in Iberia, they're well documented and happened through various means through the centuries (organically on depopulated land & helped by partible inheritance...

    If C16th Castille/Aragon/Portugal can convert Iberia to Catholicism, could a religious French monarchy do the same in the Maghreb in C19th?

    People forget there was a significant settler element in the reconquista, any genetic map of iberia proves this to the day, it wasn't just "converting", it was in many way replacing the previous population. Also this ignores some very real attempt at converting algerians under even the 3rd...

    This looks like Russia and Brazil are allies. I'm sure banning ICE did not worsen the food production at all, no sir. Is the current Arabia the "Second Arab Republic"? Is it coterminous with the first, or the second? Yeesh Western europe and USA having... 65-70 yo life expectancy, somewhere...

    A Sound of Thunder: The Rise of the Soviet Superbooster

    The timeline was more predictable in the hiatus between Part 1 and 2, there are just so much uncertainty associated with the upcoming turmoil and eventual fall of the USSR, and also the upcoming commercialisation of space, there's more to think about. It's fun.

    A Sound of Thunder: The Rise of the Soviet Superbooster

    Thinking a bit about american commercial space ITTL NASA Lost its monopoly, but it hasn’t yet been required to procure its launch services commercially (Launch Service Purchase act of 1990) , this bill was definitely not certain to pass, or even be proposed, from an AH perspective, and it may...

    Did they ever do a static fire or cryogenic fuel tank tests of some sort? Prototype F9 S1 with Merlin already was static firing by the end of 2007.

    A Sound of Thunder: The Rise of the Soviet Superbooster

    Atlas V (10 a year, maybe a bit more) + DIVH + DIV could probably handle all the DoD launches yes... but with little room for growth or anything else come the early 2020s! And that everything else could also include NASA crewed launches depending on how crewed spaceflight evolves (Could be an...

    ...line, which would be cheaper and larger scale than any of those rebuilt NK-33 plans that were mulled over IRL, from the perspective of the Americans, it's basically *Free* engines that are better than their state of the art. Fun days for Rocketdyne ahead. There will be interesting proposals...
