L231[12:15:44] <UmbralRaptop> Min diameter is 42.67 mm, max mass is 45.93 grams.
L232[12:16:15] <Althego> but doesnt the soi of such a small object fall inside the object?
L233[12:17:03] <UmbralRaptop> ;wa 2.1335e-2/(45.93e-3/5.98e24)^0.4

L235[12:17:14] <Althego> lol
L236[12:17:18] <Althego> that is longer
L237[12:17:53] <UmbralRaptop> Yes, if you're within 600,000 km of Earth's center of mass.
L238[12:19:28] <UmbralRaptop> So Draconiator should make sure his golf balls are held together by something other than gravity if he wants to compete in terrestrial games.
L239[12:27:56] <ve2dmn> what is the SOI of sagittarius *a ?
L240[12:28:33] <Althego> a*
L241[12:28:44] <ve2dmn> ... ^ that
L242[12:32:57] <ve2dmn> 3.6 million solar masses...
L243[12:33:09] <Althego> hehe
L244[12:33:21] <ve2dmn> That is a lot of matter
L245[12:33:29] <Althego> lost matter
L246[12:33:38] <ve2dmn> forever
L247[12:33:42] <Althego> not really
L248[12:33:55] <Althego> after a while it will evaporate
L249[12:34:09] <Althego> and finally nothing visible will remain in the universe
L250[12:34:18] <Althego> even white dwarves will cool down
L251[12:34:32] <Althego> the universe will be cold and dark
L252[12:34:34] <Althego> so asad
L253[12:34:46] <Althego> and without matter
L254[12:34:58] <ve2dmn> And nothing else matters
L255[12:36:02] <Althego> another sad thing that earth will be inhabitable in a few hundred million years
L256[12:36:14] <Althego> despite life being here for billions of years
L257[12:36:33] <Althego> *uninhabitable
L258[12:36:39] <Althego> ?
L259[12:36:48] <Althego> wait is this like the inflammable insanity?
L260[12:36:59] <ve2dmn> unless we manage to move it further away in the orbit...
L261[12:37:10] <ve2dmn> ... highly, highly unlikely
L262[12:37:41] <Althego> and the scary thing, i am really scared of methane hydrates warming up and releasing methane into the atmosphere
L263[12:37:47] <Althego> we are really close to that
L264[12:37:55] <ve2dmn> I heard about that :/
L265[12:38:15] <Althego> that would maybe kill half of the species
L266[12:38:28] <ve2dmn> Is this the great filter or the fermi paradox?
L267[12:38:31] <mrcus> Althego: Russian tundra?
L268[12:38:43] <ve2dmn> mrcus: not just Russian
L269[12:38:54] <Althego> also bees are dying
L270[12:38:54] <mrcus> Well, most of it is there, right? And Canada?
L271[12:39:01] <Althego> without bees we will not have food
L272[12:39:33] <mrcus> Also read that increasing sea temperatures might cause methane releases from the seafloor
L273[12:39:51] <ve2dmn> mrcus: doubtful, but not impossible
L274[12:40:06] <mrcus> My worst nightmare. Not only will the climate shit itself, but it will smell like fart

L319[12:52:27] <mrcus> Me neither, I've only got it beacuse one of my graphics mods uses it to add rings around Jool
L320[12:52:58] <Mathuin> GurrenLagannCWP: The very first hit I get when googling "make planets for Kopernicus" brings up a tutorial on making planets on the KSP wiki, using Kopernicus
L321[12:53:27] <GurrenLagannCWP> But its a old one
L322[12:53:40] <Althego> copper nicus :)
L323[12:53:47] <mrcus> GurrenLagannCWP: Did you ask in the Kopernicus thread?
L324[12:53:48] <Mathuin> Ah well. I never seem to leave Kerbin's SOI. Good luck.
L325[12:54:04] <mrcus> Mathuin: Just burn straight up for long enough
L326[12:54:27] <mrcus> 5-6k dV should do it, TWR at sea level around 1.4ish
L327[12:56:32] <GurrenLagannCWP> I dont have a forum account, just a reddit
L328[12:59:33] <Mathuin> mrcus: lately I spend more time working on kOS code than actually flying rockets.

L408[13:45:45] <Gasher> it seems to be trivial with a sphere
L409[13:45:46] <ve2dmn> Althego: they are approximations based on a US reference point

L517[14:12:50] <Althego> i mean they probably put it into everything
L518[14:12:57] <Scolar_Visari> I'm . . . unsure as to how the Romans originally found out how to make garum without dying from food poisoning.
L519[14:13:05] <Althego> hehe
L520[14:13:09] <Althego> simple
L521[14:13:26] <Althego> they tried until the people survived, the ones who died never had the opportunity to share the reciope

L524[14:13:42] <Scolar_Visari> Althego: Culinary Selection.
L525[14:14:07] <ve2dmn> Scolar_Visari: they still used lead in the food...
L526[14:14:15] <Scolar_Visari> Thankfully, we still have some decent literature on the subject of Roman cookery so it's possible to make garum today. The same can't be said with another popular flavoring.
L527[14:14:24] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: Lead, in trace amounts, was used as a flavoring for wine.
L528[14:14:29] <ve2dmn> yes
L529[14:15:06] <Althego> and it hurt them
L530[14:15:08] <Scolar_Visari> Unlike modern Barbarians, the Romans tended to drink wine with herbs, spices and other assorted flavorings. Lead was just one of many and probably the most unfortunate.

L541[14:21:16] <ve2dmn> Scolar_Visari: because of that, any sort of work in the building cost a fortune

L543[14:21:55] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: Hard to sell facilities like that too.
L544[14:22:26] <ve2dmn> It was the 1960-1970s and the thing was cheap... so they used it everywhere

L622[16:02:03] <ve2dmn> is it Pluto, Charon or the pair that is in a 2:3 resonance with Neptune?
L623[16:02:35] <UmbralRaptor> The pair.
L624[16:03:58] <ve2dmn> And if Pluto has a quasi-moon, I guess it would mean that, it too, is in a 3:2 resonance

L674[19:18:51] <Scolar_Visari> Ooooh I like this https://ids.si.edu/ids/deliveryService?id=NASM-A19740732000_PS02&max_w=1000
L675[19:20:56] <Scolar_Visari> Huh https://airandspace.si.edu/sites/default/files/images/collection-objects/record-images/NASM-A19740733000_PS01.jpg
L676[19:26:24] <Scolar_Visari> That first stage appears to have something on its face.
L677[19:34:40] <FltAdmVonSpiz> ve2dmn: would New Horizons have enough processing power to fall victim to it?
L678[19:35:08] <FltAdmVonSpiz> also surely a spaceprobe would use Mission-Elapsed-Time for all its internal dates and times
L679[19:35:57] <Scolar_Visari> Ah, but they use the Julian Calendar!
L680[19:38:41] <FltAdmVonSpiz> also I know geosync solar power is often talked about
L681[19:38:52] <FltAdmVonSpiz> but has anyone ever modelled using a mirror at geosync to get near permanent sunlight at some location
L682[19:38:56] <FltAdmVonSpiz> then putting the power station on the surface
L683[19:38:56] <ve2dmn> I haven not check what OS the probe runs and if it has the bug
L684[19:41:09] <Scolar_Visari> FltAdmVonSpiz: There were Russian experiments with giant, unfolding mirrors at several points in history.
L685[19:41:21] <Scolar_Visari> Albeit for lower orbits.
L686[19:41:29] <ve2dmn> There's also that Futurama episode...
L687[19:42:49] <Scolar_Visari> Behold . . . Znamya! https://sm-news.ru/upload/resize_cache/iblock/c8c/510_360_2/c8c05f4681aafc748f75de956948d91a.jpg
L688[19:43:26] <Scolar_Visari> Also: Depending on the particular concept, some forms of Solar Power Satellites use mirrors to reflect concentrated Sunlight on to photovoltaics or boilers.
L689[19:44:45] <Raptop> Scolar_Visari:… did your join line include continuity with your previous parting one?
L690[19:45:07] <FltAdmVonSpiz> yeah
L691[19:45:13] <FltAdmVonSpiz> just the mass requirements SPS system are just absurd
L692[19:45:20] <FltAdmVonSpiz> even with LEO only launches with orbital tugs
L693[19:45:22] <FltAdmVonSpiz> its infeasible
L694[19:45:35] <ve2dmn> found the CPU of New Horizon: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mongoose-V
L695[19:45:41] <Scolar_Visari> Raptop: Yes. I only 'reset' them after 24 hours.
L696[19:45:48] <Raptop> hm
L697[19:45:58] <Scolar_Visari> FltAdmVonSpiz: Most don't actually involve launching all but the most complicated parts from Earth.
L698[19:46:13] <FltAdmVonSpiz> eh I question the feasibility of space fabrication of solar panels in my lifetime
L699[19:46:18] <FltAdmVonSpiz> silicon foundries are hard enough to build on earth
L700[19:46:31] <Scolar_Visari> Hence the use of mirrors, rather than photovoltaics, as they are easier to produce in situ from asteroidal (which is now an adjectives) and Lunar regolith.
L701[19:47:01] <FltAdmVonSpiz> have to use PV at some point though, as I hate to imagine how much allt he mercury for those boilers would mass
L702[19:47:18] <FltAdmVonSpiz> and there is none available in near earth space that isn't on the Earth's surface
L703[19:47:20] <Scolar_Visari> Now if you can produce those spiffy unfolding Solar power Jump Sails from Battletech, than launching from Earth might be practical.
L704[19:47:45] <Scolar_Visari> FltAdmVonSpiz: What? Why mercury? Most proposed since the 70's use Brayton Cyclers with helium and another inert gas.
L705[19:47:56] <FltAdmVonSpiz> the traditional boiler cycle for space use is mercury
L706[19:48:17] <FltAdmVonSpiz> brayton cycle doesn't have a boiler :P having a boiler by defintion makes it a rankine cycle
L707[19:48:21] <Scolar_Visari> Yeah, er, back when von Braun was alive. Even bimodal NTRs would use Brayton Cyclers.
L708[19:49:13] <Scolar_Visari> Though if piping mass is not a concern, you could use water as is the case on Earth.
L709[19:49:41] <FltAdmVonSpiz> the dimensions of a water cycle are problematic though
L710[19:50:10] <Scolar_Visari> It'd be a long term thing if you have serious industry. Water being fairly common.
L711[19:50:12] <FltAdmVonSpiz> carbon dioxide cycle might be useful on orbit since helium is expensive
L712[19:51:28] * Scolar_Visari ponders the reality that graphene Solar panels could, in actuality, be Jump Sails.
L713[19:52:34] <FltAdmVonSpiz> unless you could get specific mass of solar space power below a kiloton per gigawatt, it ain't going nowhere
L714[19:52:35] <Scolar_Visari> Now all we need is K-F Drives and we'll be all set.
L715[19:53:06] <Scolar_Visari> FltAdmVonSpiz: That's what lasers are for.
L716[19:53:17] <FltAdmVonSpiz> how does a laser help that?
L717[19:53:34] <Scolar_Visari> Blinding investors.
L718[19:54:34] <Scolar_Visari> Alternatively: The mirrors themselves need not be very solid. Some concepts for Solar Thermal Propulsion involve inflated parabolic concentrating mirrors.
L719[19:54:46] <Scolar_Visari> Balloon power.
L720[19:56:08] <Scolar_Visari> Hey, an actual picture this time http://www.nss.org/settlement/nasa/spaceresvol2/images/beamedfig35.GIF
L721[19:59:45] <ve2dmn> I went down the rabbit hole of trying to find info on New Horizon OS...
L722[20:00:01] <ve2dmn> My best guess are VXworks and Nucleus RTOS
L723[20:01:33] <Scolar_Visari> All rewritten to consider Pluto and Charon as planets, no doubt.
L724[20:02:14] <ve2dmn> in the case of VXworks, the time object is 'secs since Epoch'
L725[20:02:59] <ve2dmn> (at least that what it returns)
L726[20:03:10] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: Wait a second . . . They're counting the time since their last epoch advancement from Empire Earth?
L727[20:04:11] <ve2dmn> well 1970-01-01
L728[20:04:20] <Raptop> ve2dmn: I get the impression that New Horizons will have insufficient power in the mid-late 2020s.
L729[20:04:29] <FltAdmVonSpiz> also im annoyed that companies dont publish price lists properly any more
L730[20:04:33] <FltAdmVonSpiz> damn commercial sensitivity
L731[20:04:47] <FltAdmVonSpiz> causing problems for my dissertation :(
L732[20:05:14] <ve2dmn> Raptop: something like that, but it could still run for a while on low power
L733[20:05:26] <ve2dmn> Just, not everything
L734[20:06:04] <Scolar_Visari> Raptop: Supposedly, it will still have enough power for communication with Earth until the 30s.
L735[20:06:21] <Raptop> hm
L736[20:06:22] <ve2dmn> at bits per seconds
L737[20:07:20] <Raptop> The Voyagers are sending back data at those rates now.
L738[20:07:24] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: That's enough for some online games, I guess.
L739[20:08:01] <FltAdmVonSpiz> AoE2 is designed for a few hundred bits per second I believe
L740[20:08:10] <Scolar_Visari> I was thinking earlier.
L741[20:08:20] <Scolar_Visari> Like, those games you played on the primitive internet.
L742[20:08:29] <ve2dmn> Scolar_Visari: Ultima Online?
L743[20:08:33] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: Simpler.
L744[20:08:33] <FltAdmVonSpiz> also isnt the power thing just a function of the target receding more than anything
L745[20:08:42] <FltAdmVonSpiz> so can't we compensate by building ever more absurd antennas
L746[20:08:54] <FltAdmVonSpiz> I wonder if you could lock it up with the SKA
L747[20:09:13] <ve2dmn> Scolar_Visari: pre-1997?
L748[20:09:23] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: Yeah. The old browser games.

L782[20:18:19] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: You see, the audio files for Homeworld were unhelpfully labeled as numbers, so finding a particular sound effect meant listening to hundreds of different files.
L783[20:18:24] <FltAdmVonSpiz> that teaches us just how ridiculous electronics are now
L784[20:18:31] <FltAdmVonSpiz> Homeworld was a glorious game
L785[20:18:35] <FltAdmVonSpiz> lOng may it endure
L786[20:18:39] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: I felt angrier when I had to deal with Kadeshi Swarmers.

L790[20:19:31] <Scolar_Visari> Which reminds me, that'll probably get more use now that bulk passenger missions actually take up an entire ship at a time now.
L791[20:19:37] <ve2dmn> Scolar_Visari: I managed to capture a full group of 20 swamers the first time I played
L792[20:19:47] <ve2dmn> it took a LOT of work
L793[20:20:28] <Scolar_Visari> Psht, strike craft are obsolete after the Kadeshi missions. But those quad-ion cannon frigates . . .
L794[20:20:50] <Raptop> ALMA does 31 to 1000 GHz, so that's out.

L800[20:21:22] <ve2dmn> :D
L801[20:21:32] <FltAdmVonSpiz> I just loed to jump on top of the enemy with carriers and support frigates
L802[20:21:35] <FltAdmVonSpiz> and unload hundreds of fighters
L803[20:21:40] <Scolar_Visari> Nothing says, "Go away strikecraft" like a missile destroyer firing off 16 rounds of insta-kill, homing goodness.
L804[20:21:43] <FltAdmVonSpiz> in their resource operatino
L805[20:22:08] <Scolar_Visari> FltAdmVonSpiz: By the time you got hundreds of fighters, the enemy could probably get a gravwell generator up and running.
L806[20:22:29] <FltAdmVonSpiz> gravwell generators never seemed to be that useful
L807[20:22:47] <ve2dmn> by the time I got to the last mission, my 'wall formation' of frigates was too big to see outside of the map
L808[20:23:06] <Scolar_Visari> They're far down the techtree but absolutely lethal against people who try pulling strike craft shenanigans off in late Mothership games.
L809[20:23:29] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: Especially with those nlips on in vanilla Homeworld.
L810[20:24:21] <ve2dmn> I had capture that entire 'ball' of ion frigate in the 3rd to last mission
L811[20:24:27] <ve2dmn> 150, I think...
L812[20:24:42] <ve2dmn> To the point where the engine refuse another capture
L813[20:24:49] <Scolar_Visari> Murderous on those frame rates back when Homeworld was new.
L814[20:26:43] <Scolar_Visari> Hrm . . . I *do* have some spare Oblivion drone sound effects.
L815[20:27:19] <ve2dmn> I still have my GOTY Homeworld CD
L816[20:27:45] <Scolar_Visari> Same here. Though I think I lost the soundtrack CD.
L817[20:27:54] <Scolar_Visari> Still have the original manual plus the Prima guide.
L818[20:28:19] <ve2dmn> I still have my original box of Outpost 1
L819[20:28:28] <Scolar_Visari> I take it there's a meter of dust on it?
L820[20:29:11] <ve2dmn> yep
L821[20:29:24] <ve2dmn> it sits next to the Simcity floppy edition
L822[20:29:35] <Scolar_Visari> Let's see . . . Still have Metal Fatigue, the original (and justifiably unused) Diablo 1 . . . Return to Zork!
L823[20:30:10] <Scolar_Visari> Though I don't have the Return to Zork manual, so all my playthroughs prematurely end at the schoolhouse during the pop quiz.

L835[20:34:36] <ve2dmn> There is a way to 'win' the game...
L836[20:34:47] <ve2dmn> ... but it's clearly unfinished :(
L837[20:35:21] <Scolar_Visari> Alas, maybe a successful Survive Mars will mean Outpost 3: This time it works and isn't C&C in space.
L838[20:36:20] <ve2dmn> I doubt it will be similar...
L839[20:36:39] * Scolar_Visari cautiously glances at Aven Colony.
L840[20:36:50] <ve2dmn> Is it good?
L841[20:37:01] <Scolar_Visari> Hence cautious glance, rather than green with envy.
L842[20:37:10] <Scolar_Visari> The latter gets me a restraining order.
L843[20:38:26] <Scolar_Visari> We finally did get our Dungeon Keeper sequels, so who's to say?
L844[20:39:00] <ve2dmn> yeah
L845[20:39:13] <ve2dmn> too many good titles for me to play them all
L846[20:40:41] <Scolar_Visari> That's why you need to do what Tom Cruise did in Edge of Tomorrow and have an Alpha bleed on you so you can repeat days and play forever.
L847[20:41:27] <ve2dmn> I don't want to replay from the tutorial... I want my saves!!
L848[20:41:45] <Scolar_Visari> I didn't say it'd be perfect!
L849[20:42:24] <Raptop> The Dungeon Keeper sequel was clearly the result of a monkey's paw.
L850[20:42:59] <Scolar_Visari> Eagle Nebula https://snag.gy/0uivWA.jpg
L851[20:43:12] <Scolar_Visari> Raptop: Amusingly, there are *two* Dungeon Keeper successor series.
L852[20:44:35] <Scolar_Visari> Richard Ridings, the narrator for War of Overworld, was also the narrator for the original Dungeon Keeper games!
L853[20:44:39] <Raptop> I only heard about the one that was online only, and had microtransactions in lieu of strategy,
L854[20:45:24] <Scolar_Visari> Aaaaaah http://store.steampowered.com/app/230190/War_for_the_Overworld/
L855[20:46:20] <Scolar_Visari> Raptop: That's funny, too, given that Dungeons came out before the onlien only Dungeon Keeper.
L856[20:46:30] <ve2dmn> I want an Evil Genius sequel
L857[20:47:17] <Scolar_Visari> That's happening.
L858[20:47:24] <ve2dmn> I know
L859[20:47:30] <Scolar_Visari> https://www.polygon.com/2017/7/4/15919674/evil-genius-2-pc-in-production-release-date
L860[20:47:31] <ve2dmn> no news in 6 month though
L861[20:47:50] * Scolar_Visari still has a digital only copy of Evil Genius
L862[20:48:03] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: That happens to a lot of, er, lower budget games.
L863[20:48:28] <ve2dmn> as long as it's good, I can wait
L864[20:48:42] <ve2dmn> I don't want another DF-9
L865[20:49:23] <Scolar_Visari> I'd settle for a mod friendly Evil Genius 1 to be honest.
L866[20:50:31] <Scolar_Visari> This gas giant is hogging up my frame https://snag.gy/SKaesU.jpg
L867[20:53:38] <Scolar_Visari> New, up to date size chart! http://www.janichsan.de/ED_Ship_Chart_V3_0.png
L868[20:54:40] <Scolar_Visari> Though the hull masses are wrong. The Type 9 lost a lot of mass.
L869[20:56:17] <ve2dmn> Scolar_Visari: need to add those to the MASSIVE chart with all the ships from all the series
L870[20:57:25] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: There is one with Star Citizen https://imgur.com/a/TCXjW
L871[20:57:54] <Scolar_Visari> However, a lot of media (particularly games, such as Homeworld) don't have stated ship lengths or obvious human features, making size comparisons quite difficulty.
L872[20:58:39] <ve2dmn> https://orig00.deviantart.net/494a/f/2014/171/0/1/size_comparison___science_fiction_spaceships_by_dirkloechel-d6lfgdf.jpg
L873[20:58:48] <Scolar_Visari> Movies made prior to CGI technology also tended to have ships different in size from shot to shot ala Star Wars.
L874[20:59:05] <ConductorCat> :3
L875[20:59:15] <Scolar_Visari> To say nothing of mockups not being quite as big on the outside as their interiors would suggest ala the Millenium Falcon and the APC from Aliens.
L876[20:59:23] *** Raptop is now known as UmbralRaptor
L877[21:01:43] <Scolar_Visari> Or, in some cases, canon literature would give you dimensions completely inconsistent with that of other media. The Executor-class Star Destroyers from the movies, for instance, was obviously larger than the puny sizes given in early RPG literature.
L878[21:02:51] <ve2dmn> table top game with 6side dices?
L879[21:04:18] <Scolar_Visari> ve2dmn: I just know they never saw the movies . . .
L880[21:04:21] <Scolar_Visari> Also: Big tank is big https://i.imgur.com/qftosPg.png
L881[21:10:38] <UmbralRaptor> Isn't sure what sort of tank that is, so I'm going to assume a Bolo Mk I.
L882[21:11:28] <Scolar_Visari> It's a tank for Star Citizen, hence the full interior.
L883[21:11:56] <ve2dmn> Now that you remind me, I think I have both Star Citizen and Elite Dangerous...
L884[21:12:02] <UmbralRaptor> Uh
L885[21:12:28] <ve2dmn> well... I *backed* Star Citizen
L886[21:12:34] <UmbralRaptor> I have questions about how it will be used.
L887[21:12:51] <Scolar_Visari> UmbralRaptor: A lot of ground vehicles are already offered. I assume it would be similar to SRV actions in Elite.
L888[21:13:02] <Scolar_Visari> Which, by the way, could use more surface vehicles.
