L261[14:14:23] <Scolar_Visari> Though it is quite possible to play FotS as a, "traditional" faction, particularly in the early game. Peasant musket levees are little match for thousands of charging yari ashigaru.

L286[14:29:19] <oren> Althego: I want them to also revise the definition of a moon
L287[14:29:34] <oren> phobos and deimos are not real moons
L288[14:29:53] <Scolar_Visari> oren: Astronomers beg to differ.
L289[14:30:02] <oren> and jupiter has 4 moons, not 90
L290[14:30:18] <FreeThinker> what clasifies as a moon?
L291[14:30:25] <Scolar_Visari> FreeThinker: It orbits a planet.
L292[14:30:27] <oren> a round thing that orbits a planet
L293[14:30:35] <APlayer> Only big balls of ice cream
L294[14:30:39] <oren> it has to be rounded by its gravity
L295[14:30:49] <Scolar_Visari> Oren's attempting to use hydrostatic equilbrium as another characteristic, which astronomers do not use.
L296[14:30:55] <Supernovy> It's more difficult to think of things that aren't dwarfed by jupiter. Inside the solar system, at least.
L297[14:30:58] <APlayer> ...so, a round pebble classifies?
L298[14:31:00] <Scolar_Visari> Supernovy: The Sun!

L305[14:31:46] <Scolar_Visari> Althego: Exactly why oren's definition isn't terribly useful.
L306[14:31:54] <Scolar_Visari> FreeThinker: We have Principia, though!
L307[14:31:58] <APlayer> FreeThinker: Principia comes to your aid
L308[14:31:59] <Supernovy> A moon should be defined as a 1) natural object that 2) orbits a planet that is also 3) convenient to call a moon
L309[14:32:02] <oren> Scolar_Visari: how many moons does saturn have, and is that more or less than the number of sand grains on the shores of the pacific ocean
L310[14:32:29] <Scolar_Visari> oren: A lot. Again, astronomers get to set the definition. If you don't like it, tough.
L311[14:32:35] <FreeThinker> planets and moons can only spin vertically on one axis
L312[14:32:36] * Scolar_Visari glares at Alan Stern.
L313[14:32:50] <Scolar_Visari> FreeThinker: Sometimes that spin can get reversed!
L314[14:32:51] <APlayer> Really, it's weird how all those things like moons and planets need waterproof definitions, as if they were laws that could lead to trouble if a loophole was discovered
L315[14:33:09] <FreeThinker> Scolar_Visari: I'm not talking orbital mechanics
L316[14:33:13] <APlayer> I mean, all those scientists can't wait to file a lawsuit that Ceres is actually a planet

L331[14:35:11] <Scolar_Visari> Althego: Perhaps. Triton orbits Neptune in the 'wrong' direction too.
L332[14:35:22] <FreeThinker> the problem with Principa is that persistant strust effect do not work with it
L333[14:35:33] * Scolar_Visari notes Triton is almost certainly a captured Kuiper Belt Object.
L334[14:35:57] <oren> triton is a valid moon though. nice and round

L414[14:54:58] <Scolar_Visari> I suppose geologically active is the only word I can use to describe bodies with lots of cryovolcanism.

L446[15:03:16] <Scolar_Visari> Helium-3 being a daughter product of tritium, while helium-4 is produced by deuterium-tritium fusion.
L447[15:03:27] <oren> oh right. well, helium 3 superconduscts jsut as well hopefully
L448[15:03:53] <Althego> copper is also interesting
L449[15:04:14] <Althego> we would run out of copper if every human used as much copper as we in developed countries

L458[15:05:42] <oren> Althego: all you do is project quicksilver over iron and boom you getcopper
L459[15:05:44] <JCB> mm.. mining the solar system
L460[15:06:07] <oren> or you can fuse two iron atoms into a copper atom
L461[15:06:21] <Scolar_Visari> JCB: The recovery of heavy elements like Gold from asteroids is a bit of a pain, as it's typically distributed rather diffusely where on Earth there are geological and hydrological processes that concentrate it.
L462[15:07:01] <Scolar_Visari> So to get gold from an asteroid, you'd have to move and process a hideous amount of dirt without the neato chemical proceses we have on Earth.
L463[15:07:16] <Scolar_Visari> Though I suppose mercury poisoning would be less of an issue.

L468[15:09:59] <Althego> the asteoid mining company (forgot their name) want to mine water. because you c an make rocket fuel with sunlight
L469[15:10:01] <Scolar_Visari> Water's more important to human life than gold.
L470[15:10:15] <Althego> and water is abundant
L471[15:10:26] <Scolar_Visari> Althego: The water itself could be used as propellant, with bonus points for being quite storable.
L472[15:10:27] <JCB> there was talk about making fuel on mars with a base station... already know we can make o2 on moon regolith
L473[15:10:27] <Althego> so if it is already in space and can be used to refill
L474[15:10:37] <Althego> then it is a huge resource
L475[15:10:47] <Scolar_Visari> JCB: Oxygen in Lunar regolith would require a lot of energy to recover, as its bonded to other things.

L480[15:12:26] <Scolar_Visari> Water is rarer than was once thought, and recovery on the Moon would be problematic.
L481[15:12:53] <Scolar_Visari> In contrast to Mars, where water exists on and below the surface with free atmospheric carbon-dioxide to boot.
L482[15:15:32] <JCB> considering you get 2 weeks of sun each shot...
L483[15:15:38] <JCB> mind you 2 weeks of darkness too but whatever
L484[15:15:39] <Scolar_Visari> C-type asteroids also have worthwhile amounts of water trapped within, and accessing it could be done by baking the material out.
L485[15:16:30] <Scolar_Visari> JCB: Amusingly, water could be used as the material for hydrogen fuel cells needed to store energy for Lunar nights.
L486[15:17:00] <Scolar_Visari> Excess thermal energy created during the day time could also be stored in molten Lunar rocks for later recovery.

L495[15:19:38] <Scolar_Visari> I was thinking of just regular conductors in lieu of supercoolant use.
L496[15:19:50] <Scolar_Visari> Think about it: You could make the flywheel in situ!
L497[15:20:14] <Althego> i thought these were primarily used for momentary energy loss compensation, not for continuous run
L498[15:20:49] <Scolar_Visari> You can use them for rather long term storage if need be.
L499[15:21:49] <Scolar_Visari> There are power grids which do this, in fact, and maintenance free flywheel storage units would be of particular interest for Lunar or Martian bases.
