Hm, that is unexpected. obviously that doesnt include the full manufacturing carbon cost of a rocket but it's probably close enough anyway.
not even a little, but matrioshka brains are cool
i highly doubt 10 years is even remotely close to breaking even on a rocket launch.

homeostasis as a word certainly existed at this time, but in the biological sciences, and means a system which is self regulating. Im sure that would have changed their opinion on the piece somewhat had they found out.
"how old is a country" is almost nonsenscal. Constitutions have dates, countries are continuos fluid things. Ill illustrate with an example: How old is your family? do you go by your oldest relative, your last name, some ancient family tree, or do you go all the way to LUCA? it's nonsensical.

If everyone gave up on a place when futures there look bleak, there wouldnt be a place left in the world worth living in.
