If you use a regular smartphone in space (or technically in orbit for this argument), it’s probably not going to get a fix because GPS receivers are required to stop locating when reaching some speed to not be export controlled. And that speed is picked so people don’t build missiles, orbital speed will be higher.

Actually not quite correct. The camera and spaceship will generally have different starting positions of their center of gravity but the same starting velocity, leading them to drift apart.

The only real relevant thing for the photograph is rotation though as long as the camera doesn’t float in front of the window frame, and airflow is probably much more relevant for both points than gravity.

That are the tidal forces, they are quite small for a system of the size of Orion.

Right, I was talking technically. That’s what I tried to say in the second paragraph.

You can use a heat pump for any realistic output temperature but the efficiency goes down the higher the temperature difference has to be.

As long as sun and wind aren’t the main energy sources there, it might be economical but I wouldn’t exactly call it reasonable.

Im pretty sure that „Offload Unused Apps“ is on by default.

Well that’s the thing, they won’t know because nobody will do the registration until it’s actually enforced.

If you take futuristic to mean „looking like the future“, it think the second option is sadly more futuristic for some people

Indeed, but sprawling lead-smoke infested freeways is the stuff of the 1950s; bike lanes and playgrounds and grassy tram tracks is what some cities are starting to do just now! So actually more futuristic, objectively speaking :)

Citation needed

F-15 A and C are single seaters. C is actually the most common variant the USAF has.

The one shot down was an E though so two people.

The sword missile is really impressive but you’re not really targeting a single car seat with that.

Wikipedia says it means "Technology Business Programming Network"
