A huge mass of imbeciles continues to believe that we will colonize the Moon with rockets

It's been more than half a century (Apollo 11) since we've returned to the Moon and worse, we don't have a permanent base there. The Space Shuttle disasters (14 dead astronauts) have taught nothing to the idiots and asses who believe that rockets (the first CEO was Hitler) can be improved as the physics incompetent Musk believes. I'll explain why: There is a thermodynamic equation PV= NkT which links the speed of the gases expelled from a missile to the temperature of the combustion chamber (missile nozzle). That relationship tells us that the speed of the gas with which the missile recoils is inexorably linked to the square root of the temperature. At most the combustion chambers tolerate around 3000 degrees of temperature. If you want to double the thrust of a rocket the temperature must be raised to 12000 degrees! … No metal alloy in the combustion chamber tolerates even 4000 degrees. Therefore, any rocket, even an improved one, will NEVER have double thrust with the same expelled mass. See the repeated explosive bangs of Musk's starship trying to make comically bigger and more powerful rockets.

Furthermore, the rocket-based spaceship loses pieces during each journey. About 0.3% of the total starting mass returned from Artemis with a trip around the Moon with the usual dive into the ocean. The same percentage as the old Saturn 5.
Certainly rockets will never transport minerals from the Moon and Mars except in homeopathic doses.
Furthermore, rocket believers boycott any attempt to scrap rockets as demonstrated by Chris Bergin's criticisms in Nasaspaceflight www.asps.it/antib3.png regarding Non-Newtonian Propulsion (PNN) www.asps.it .
In summary, rockets are good for wars on Earth (short trips) and also for putting satellites into orbit around the Earth and resupplying the ISS station at about 400 km above sea level. But when you force them to try their hand at distances 1000 times longer such as the Earth-Moon distance (about 400,000 km) they demonstrate all their inadequacy.
For years we have been witnessing Musk's comical proclamations declaring he is launching astronauts into space, omitting that they reach a maximum height of 400 km. And a large mass of imbeciles applaud ecstatically.
