Southern Infrastructure Megastructure Gothic

@eightyonekilograms, in a post about why levees and dikes won't save Florida from Sea Level Rise:

dams and levees won't work because southern Florida is a limestone sponge and the water will just come up through the ground— but with a trillion dollars of other people's money to spend, they'll figure out something. That's what real estate investors are banking on, and they are probably correct.

NOAA has a Sea Level Rise map, which you can jack all the way up to 10 feet above "Current Mean Higher High Water", and then scroll around the entire coastal United States to see what gets flooded.

Pensacola is fine; they know what storm surge looks like from being in the splash-damage radius of every time New Orleans gets fucked.

St. Pete/Clearwater loses its waterfront, but retains significant infrastructure inland.

Naples and Cape Coral lose their entire downtowns, but the inland suburban sprawl survives. I guess they'll need to convert some of those tract houses into neighborhood-scale commercial.

Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and indeed most of Miami-Date and Broward Counties are awash, and become the basis of new coral reefs for the Northern Florida Keys.

But West Palm Beach is okay.

By Congressional mandate, NASA adapts the Cralwers to work as amphibious vechicles, in order to continue using Shuttle-derived hardware at Pad 39, with the new Sea Launch System rated to withstand salt spray inside the engine bells at launch.

SpaceX stops leasing in Texas, where South Padre Island is completely underwater, and buys up an entire subdivision's worth of now-island land in South Miami. The neighbors won't complain about concrete dust if there are no neighbors!

Saint Augustine dies, but Jacksonville is like Pensacola, and picks up its skirts to avoid the puddles.

Trillions of dollars of dikes aren't the answer. The solution will be to jack everything up ten feet, from roads to ports to homes. If you can't adapt to life in a saline intertidal wash, you'll move inland.

No, the real issue will be whether they can build a seawall around DC's National Mall and National Airport that won't offend the sensitivities of climate-denying Congresscritters.

The Advantages Of Airport Taxi Services

Although several people choose to drive themselves or take the airport shuttle to get to the airport, there is something about hiring taxi service to Panama City Beach Airport, ECP. Most people might not even see these as benefits, but they indeed are. Here are some for the main benefits of hiring airport taxi services: • When you hire from a reputed taxi service, you can be sure that the car will arrive in time, at the location that you specify. The car will be clean and comfortable and you can even book in accordance with the size you want. So, if it is just you travelling, you can hire a small car and if you are travelling in a large group, you can even book a van! You will not have to go looking, because the service provider will take care of it all. • If you know who to contact, getting airport transportation to Northwest Florida Beaches International Airport, ECP should be super easy. The car that meets your requirement will arrive at a time you specify; the driver will assist you in stacking all the luggage in a neat and safe manner and then take you directly to the terminal. Once you reach, they will also help you unload the luggage and send you off with a smile! • Choose to hire airport transportation to Tallahassee International Airport, TLH from a reliable service provider and you can be assured of the safety. Even if women or children are travelling alone, with a reputed taxi service provider, there is generally nothing to worry about. • And then there is the most important aspect – when you hire a taxi service, you can just sit back and relax all the way to the airport. There is no worry about parking the vehicle or where to stop; the driver will ensure that you are dropped, exactly where you need to be! With PCB Shuttle, airport transportation to Pensacola International Airport, PNS will become a breeze, so try it out the next time you are off on a voyage!

NASA Astronauts Safely Splash Down after First Commercial Crew Flight to Space Station

NASA & SpaceX - First Crewed Flight DM-2 patch. Aug. 2, 2020 Two NASA astronauts splashed down safely in the Gulf of Mexico Sunday for the first time in a commercially built and operated American crew spacecraft, returning from the International Space Station to complete a test flight that marks a new era in human spaceflight.

Image above: A SpaceX fast boat races toward the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft moments before it splashed down in the Gulf of Mexico with NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley aboard. Image Credit: NASA TV. SpaceX’s Crew Dragon, carrying Robert Behnken and Douglas Hurley, splashed down under parachutes in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Pensacola, Florida at 2:48 p.m. EDT Sunday and was successfully recovered by SpaceX. After returning to shore, the astronauts immediately will fly back to Houston. “Welcome home, Bob and Doug! Congratulations to the NASA and SpaceX teams for the incredible work to make this test flight possible,” said NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine. “It’s a testament to what we can accomplish when we work together to do something once thought impossible. Partners are key to how we go farther than ever before and take the next steps on daring missions to the Moon and Mars.”

SpaceX Demo-2: Crew Dragon Splashdown

Behnken and Hurley’s return was the first splashdown for American astronauts since Thomas Stafford, Vance Brand, and Donald “Deke” Slayton landed in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of Hawaii on July 24, 1975, at the end of the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. NASA’s SpaceX Demo-2 test flight launched May 30 from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. After reaching orbit, Behnken and Hurley named their Crew Dragon spacecraft “Endeavour” as a tribute to the first space shuttle each astronaut had flown aboard. Nearly 19 hours later, Crew Dragon docked to the forward port of the International Space Station’s Harmony module May 31. “On behalf of all SpaceX employees, thank you to NASA for the opportunity to return human spaceflight to the United States by flying NASA astronauts Bob Behnken and Doug Hurley,” said SpaceX President and Chief Operating Officer Gwynne Shotwell. “Congratulations to the entire SpaceX and NASA team on such an extraordinary mission. We could not be more proud to see Bob and Doug safely back home—we all appreciate their dedication to this mission and helping us start the journey towards carrying people regularly to low Earth orbit and on to the Moon and Mars. And I really hope they enjoyed the ride!”

Images Credits: NASA Television. Behnken and Hurley participated in a number of scientific experiments, spacewalks and public engagement events during their 62 days aboard station. Overall, the astronaut duo spent 64 days in orbit, completed 1,024 orbits around Earth and traveled 27,147,284 statute miles. The astronauts contributed more than 100 hours of time to supporting the orbiting laboratory’s investigations. Hurley conducted the Droplet Formation Study inside of the Microgravity Science Glovebox (MSG), which evaluates water droplet formation and water flow. Hurley also conducted the Capillary Structures investigation, which studies the use of different structures and containers to manage fluids and gases. Hurley and Behnken worked on numerous sample switch outs for the Electrolysis Measurement (EM) experiment, which looks at bubbles created using electrolysis and has implications for numerous electrochemical reactions and devices. Both crew members also contributed images to the Crew Earth Observations (CEO) study. CEO images help record how our planet is changing over time, from human-caused changes – such as urban growth and reservoir construction – to natural dynamic events, including hurricanes, floods, and volcanic eruptions. Behnken conducted four spacewalks while on board the space station with Expedition 63 Commander and NASA colleague Chris Cassidy. The duo upgraded two power channels on the far starboard side of the station’s truss with new lithium-ion batteries. They also routed power and Ethernet cables, removed H-fixtures that were used for ground processing of the solar arrays prior to their launch, installed a protective storage unit for robotic operations, and removed shields and coverings in preparation for the arrival later this year of the Nanoracks commercial airlock on a SpaceX cargo delivery mission.

SpaceX Demo-2: Crew Dragon Hatch Opening

Behnken now is tied for most spacewalks by an American astronaut with Michael Lopez-Alegria, Peggy Whitson, and Chris Cassidy, each of whom has completed 10 spacewalks. Behnken now has spent a total of 61 hours and 10 minutes spacewalking, which makes him the U.S. astronaut with the third most total time spacewalking, behind Lopez-Alegria and Andrew Feustel, and the fourth most overall. The Demo-2 test flight is part of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, which has worked with the U.S. aerospace industry to launch astronauts on American rockets and spacecraft from American soil to the space station for the first time since 2011. This is SpaceX’s final test flight and is providing data on the performance of the Falcon 9 rocket, Crew Dragon spacecraft and ground systems, as well as in-orbit, docking, splashdown, and recovery operations. Crew Dragon Endeavour will return back to SpaceX’s Dragon Lair in Florida for inspection and processing. Teams will examine the spacecraft’s data and performance from throughout the test flight. The completion of Demo-2 and the review of the mission and spacecraft pave the way for NASA to certify SpaceX’s crew transportation system for regular flights carrying astronauts to and from the space station. SpaceX is readying the hardware for the first rotational mission, called Crew-1, later this year. This mission would occur after NASA certification, which is expected to take about six weeks. The goal of NASA’s Commercial Crew Program is safe, reliable and cost-effective transportation to and from the International Space Station. This could allow for additional research time and increase the opportunity for discovery aboard humanity’s testbed for exploration, including helping us prepare for human exploration of the Moon and Mars.

Pensacola Airport Shuttle Service, Premier airport shuttle in Pensacola Airport

Pensacola Shuttle

If you are thinking about  shuttle transport in comparison to taking a cab, there are a couple of things you ought to think about.

Will your ride exceed a couple miles? Whenever you're riding more than 10 miles, an airport shuttle service will probably like your business, as this is generally where it is worthwhile for a shuttle to want your business and this is generally where there minimum miles starts at.

If you're traveling as part of a group it can sometimes be wiser to make a reservation with a shuttle as opposed to riding with a taxi cab. When reserving ahead of time, you can be assured that you and your group will be transported in the same vehicle. This would most likely be the preferred option over taking the chance that the airport taxi queue has a suitable vehicle. This way, you can pay one fare instead of having to pay multiple fares. 

Although the choice to ride with a shuttle is frequently a economic decision, shuttles are more often chosen over taxis because of comfort or space issues. Many people that hire limos, often change to shuttles because all they truly require is an upgrade over a cab in terms of comfort. Airport shuttles are also much more practical if you are traveling with lots of luggage.

So what are a few of the disadvantages of hiring an airport shuttle? If you're utilizing a shared shuttle service, you are going to have to figure in additional time since you will be making other stops on. In contrast a private shuttle service, your ride will not be a direct one. Since a shared ride is available as a low budget alternative, you should not hope for a vehicle made for comfort, but on the contrary a utility looking vehicle.

The reason why most business travelers go with airport shuttle services, is they know that a shuttle company will more than likely take their  credit cards, whereas not all cab companies do. And unfortunately, not all taxi drivers will tell you in advance they will not. You frequently find out when you are  ready to pay the fare.
