Thunderfoot did a deep dive into this https://youtu.be/75a49S4RTRU
What they are trying to do is impressive, but far more impressive things were done with 60's technology

People think SpaceX is this big success but if you compare them to space travel in the 60's they really aren't.
Test flight 8 didn't make it to orbit.
In the 60's the Saturn 5 went into orbit on its first test flight.
On its 3rd test flight it took humans around the moon.
All of this with less computing power than some egg timers of today.
Even if we lose more, we can't back down from a bully. We need to stand strong and roll with the punches
My experience has often been that Business mostly cares about what they and their users can directly interact with (The FE) and don't really care about spending time and effort on the BE
I can't imagine why anyone would put themselves through the insane amount of effort it takes to figure this stuff out and set everything up. Yet I love it, just want to keep tinkering and doing more
It's a slippery slope
Not really but I'll persevere, there is a lot of good in my life.

Nice good luck!! I think I'm going to keep NextcloudAIO as is, not having everything in one place feels better and safer.
lol I won't those HDD's are like my babies, I'm very careful with them, that temporary stand while not foolproof is solid, but I have no plans of testing it out now that the drives are in there
The biggest challenges of Apollo was they had to invent so many new technologies that didn't exist yet to solve problems, that's why they needed a nation.
The advances in computer science alone during that era is rediculous. (listen to the podcast 13 Minutes to the Moon, it's mind blowing)
Still they only used 74kb of Memory, that's smaller than most image files these days.
SpaceX have 55 years newer and proven tech to work with.
Apollo took humans around the moon on their 3rd test flight.
SpaceX is on flight 8 and haven't reached orbit yet.
I get they have other goals, but their goals seem easy in comparison, especially if you consider the tech we have now vs the 60's
Destin did a video on how flawed the starship is.

tl:dr you'd need 9 starships if not more to take a crew to the moon because its payload to orbit sucks.
