L8[00:22:53] <RhineBTV> well I mean moreso just for quick searching, not permanently removing parts from a category
L9[00:23:42] <RhineBTV> like I installed the ProbesPlus mod and I wanted to browse just their parts but also know what category they're usually listed under
L10[00:24:04] <RhineBTV> since the manufacturer filter removes all the categories and just puts all the parts in a single list
L11[00:24:32] <RhineBTV> cool mod, btw
L12[00:24:54] <RhineBTV> like some of these probe cores that have stack nodes but also has vacant space where you can tuck batteries and junk inside them

L108[05:59:16] <Daz> holy crap I thought trying out UKS would be a walk in the park but I can't even get to Minmus without having to rethink my lander :S
L109[06:00:15] <taniwha> Getting to Minmus is easy. Getting infrastructure to Minmus is not so easy.
L110[06:00:27] <Daz> taniwha my kerbals get homesick :/
L111[06:00:39] <Daz> seems I need to add cupoles to extend something called habtime
L112[06:01:04] <taniwha> the concept is believable, but the implementation leaves a lot to be desired

L115[06:01:44] <taniwha> Eddi|zuHause: pretty much
L116[06:02:10] <Pakaran> Daz, you can also under-crew the craft (say, 2 in a hitchhiker) to get better use out of the Kerbal-months.
L117[06:02:11] <taniwha> and I suspect RoverDude never read Heinlein
L118[06:02:16] <Mat2ch> Now I see what I'm missing in KSP. It would be fun to have a mission mode that tells you to build a Minmus base and keep your Kerbals happy so that the base will grow and grow.
L119[06:02:17] <Althego> fluburtur, you should open it with soldering iron
L120[06:02:17] <Mat2ch> :P
L121[06:02:18] <taniwha> or at least not his older stuff
L122[06:02:29] <Fluburtur> Althego that could actually work
L123[06:02:33] <taniwha> his characters /do/ get homesick, briefly
L124[06:02:47] <Daz> Pakaran so far my landers have all been 1.25 but it seems I'm going to have to go 2.5 now
L125[06:03:07] <taniwha> (often, go on leave or such, return to Earth, decide it's not for them, return to space with nary a regret)
L126[06:03:21] <Pakaran> Daz, the hitchhiker has a big hab advantage over anything below the 90 science tier AFAIR.
L127[06:03:22] <Eddi|zuHause> Mat2ch: Surviving Minimus?
L128[06:03:23] <Mat2ch> (and have things like mini missions: Transport 8 Kerbals back to Kerbin, because they're homesick)
L129[06:03:23] <Daz> I guess I'll toss on some construction ports so I can use it as a future base in case there's good stuff where I happen to land
L130[06:03:27] <Mat2ch> Eddi|zuHause: :D
L131[06:04:01] <Pakaran> (except a few inflatable parts that nobody's going to use in a lander, and require a lot of mechanical parts and whatnot)
L132[06:04:14] <Althego> hah, new idea, convex earth
L133[06:04:26] <Daz> Mat2ch I think there's a contract pack like that? Used to be atleast last I played sometime around 1.1-1.2
L134[06:04:49] <Daz> Pakaran didn't you say there was a youtuber who did series with uks? Mind throwing a name?
L135[06:05:05] <Eddi|zuHause> earth is obviously concave. why else would your shoes wear out at the front and the back?

L138[06:05:58] <Daz> minmus surface back to kerbin, how many dV do I need?
L139[06:06:11] <Althego> i remember in once case the bottom broke in half because of repeated structural stress
L140[06:06:12] <Eddi|zuHause> generally about 20 more that i have
L141[06:06:33] <taniwha> Daz: < 300m/s, I think
L142[06:06:53] <Daz> wow, I knew it was little but that's not a lot at all
L143[06:07:16] <Daz> I looked at my 1500dV escape craft and was like "yeah that might be a little much" :p
L144[06:07:16] <taniwha> A kerbal can land from low minmus orbit, take off and return to kerbin on one pack of propellant
L145[06:07:25] <taniwha> not a good plan since 1.0, though
L146[06:07:47] <taniwha> (a kerbal has about 500m/s)
L147[06:07:50] <Mat2ch> taniwha: bring a pocket heat shield. :D
L148[06:08:46] <Eddi|zuHause> can a kerbal assemble a heat shield and something to grab onto from KIS inventory?

L158[06:14:04] <Pakaran> first time I went to Minmus, I brought plenty of fuel, and a lander based on a Terrier (I'd gone to the Mun in the same game).

L176[06:19:32] <Althego> you can achieve more delta v with limited solids because you dont wasate it to atmospheric drag

L193[06:24:24] <Althego> going 4 digits you either have to go ions, or cheat with jets
L194[06:24:33] <Pakaran> ah.
L195[06:25:02] <Althego> because jets are simply cheating, they dont have that high exchaust velocity, they just take mass from the atmosphere
L196[06:25:11] <Pakaran> I'd assume it's possible to go a bit better by optimizing for vacuum though?
L197[06:25:20] <Pakaran> and oxygen has a BIG atomic mass, yep.
L198[06:25:44] <Althego> yes, probably, but not by much
L199[06:26:11] <Althego> most of that high isp comes from the hydrogen in the case of rs-25

L201[06:26:37] <taniwha> thus rockets tend to burn rich
L202[06:26:47] <taniwha> get more H2 and CO
L203[06:26:53] <Althego> because of several reasons
L204[06:27:02] <taniwha> runs slightly cooler, too
L205[06:27:03] <Pakaran> ah, I know some of the KSP nerfing is simply in the high dry mass of tanks
L206[06:27:16] <Pakaran> and is a reducing flame, which won't eat e.g. steel parts?
L207[06:27:19] <taniwha> and high mass of the engines
L208[06:27:23] <Althego> one is the preburner, other is the cooling around the nozzle walls
L209[06:27:43] <taniwha> and high mass of every other part
L210[06:27:52] <taniwha> (eg, command pods)
L211[06:27:59] <Althego> yes, ksp things are really heavy
L212[06:28:06] <Althego> i hatethe 3 person command pod mass
L213[06:28:11] <Althego> it is excessively heavy
L214[06:28:22] <Althego> i take it only for looks or as a challenge
L215[06:28:25] <taniwha> not when compared to the mk1 pod
L216[06:28:41] <taniwha> when compared to the mk1 pod, it's actually a little light
L217[06:28:55] <taniwha> but the mk1 pod is excessively massive
L218[06:29:03] <Althego> isnt that 0.86 t?
L219[06:29:16] <Althego> the mk1-3? or what isits name now is like4 t
L220[06:29:17] <taniwha> 800kg is a lot for a shell
L221[06:29:43] <Pakaran> the mk1 is also based on the Mercury capsule. Which was really, really cramped.
L222[06:30:02] <Althego> what i dont understand, how 1-2-3 kerbals fit in the russian style capsule
L223[06:30:06] <taniwha> Althego: 2.6t
L224[06:30:11] <taniwha> (not including monoprop)
L225[06:30:40] <Eddi|zuHause> i should learn to remove monoprop in the VAB

L230[06:31:07] *** mkv is now known as m4v
L231[06:31:19] <taniwha> since the mk1-3 is effectively 2x the scale of the mk1, it /should/ be 8x as massive, not 3.25
L232[06:31:51] <Althego> if you expect it to be a solid object. but it should be mostly empty space inside
L233[06:32:05] <taniwha> (the mass of a pressure vessel scales directly with the volume it contains)
L234[06:32:39] <taniwha> Althego: that's the intuitive thing, but reality is not always intuitive
L235[06:32:43] <Althego> but you dont need 3 times as much engineering parts for things that run it
L236[06:32:43] <Eddi|zuHause> the mass scaling of 8x assumes wall thickness also doubles
L237[06:32:49] <Eddi|zuHause> and all internal modules
L238[06:32:50] <Pakaran> because it needs to have enough tensile strength to hold the pressure on a wider cross section?
L239[06:32:54] <taniwha> as the contained volume increases, so does the required thickness of the walls
L240[06:33:20] <taniwha> Eddi|zuHause: the wall thickness must double too, or the walls will be too weak
L241[06:33:30] <Althego> to hold it structurally
L242[06:33:32] <Pakaran> That does make sense.
L243[06:33:34] <Althego> that sounds reasonalbe
L244[06:33:45] <taniwha> both structurally and against the pressure
L245[06:33:46] <Althego> but does the wall makes most of its mass?
L246[06:34:09] <taniwha> if it doesn't, then that might explain the < 8x
L247[06:34:20] <taniwha> (3x the seats+controls)
L248[06:34:42] <taniwha> 3xseat + 8xwall
L249[06:35:11] <Pakaran> here we go. Mercury had an on-orbit mass of 1,355 kg: http://braeunig.us/space/specs/mercury.htm
L250[06:35:37] <Pakaran> so scaled to Kerbals, that should be lighter than a mk1 pod. Maybe significantly lighter.
L251[06:36:02] <Pakaran> granted, you'd need the deorbit engine, heat shield, and very basic life support to be really equivalent
L252[06:37:28] <Althego> also not that even the mk3 capsule is lighter for 4 people

L279[06:42:46] <taniwha> Althego: anyway, I wasn't sure which befuddled me more, the 10000m/s exhaust velocity on chemical, or the use of metric when the rest of the book used imperial

L394[07:39:36] <Pakaran> I have a mock-up already made, which will make orbit and provide life support for everyone aboard. Now, there's at least two issues:
L395[07:40:26] <Pakaran> it's still just slightly heavy for my level 2 launch pad. I'm fairly confident in dealing with that one, and it wouldn't be hard for me to save for level 3 at this point anyhow.
L396[07:41:58] <Pakaran> However, right now, it's just a spine of Hitchhikers with a 2.5-1.5 adaptor, mk1 pod, chutes and life support. The real problem is that I'm not sure how well it will remain stable on reentry, since it's quite long.
L397[07:42:25] <Pakaran> I'm not sure how the Hitchhikers will do with the heating if it ends up "falling" to edge-on.

L427[08:43:23] <ve2dmn> Screenshot?
L428[08:43:36] <ve2dmn> Also, are you using any mods?
L429[08:44:01] <Guest60629> only mod is OPT parts
L430[08:45:52] <ve2dmn> does that happen with every spaceplane or just one?

L447[08:55:01] <ve2dmn> I'm not 100% sure what's wrong
L448[08:58:13] <ve2dmn> Best advice would be to backup this install of KSP, re-install it from zero and try again.

L611[15:35:49] <Rokker> FltAdmVonSpiz: imagine how much more power it would produce now
L612[15:36:02] <Rokker> with efficiency increases
L613[15:36:18] <FltAdmVonSpiz> that is 15% efficiency

L622[15:40:54] <FltAdmVonSpiz> we only have to get the segments of the mirrors into a relatively low orbit of a few hundred km
L623[15:40:59] <FltAdmVonSpiz> after that they can solar sail to the 4000km deployment altitude

L651[16:43:46] <darsie> expendable FH or BFR is more expensive than reusable. I'm sure you can make smaller panels than requiring expendable launches.

L660[16:45:53] <FltAdmVonSpiz> but I dubt they are going to charge a tenth as much :P

L662[16:46:35] <darsie> When are you going to do this? In 1 year? Or in 10?
L663[16:46:43] <FltAdmVonSpiz> well ten I imagine
L664[16:46:47] <FltAdmVonSpiz> but I am trying to be conservative
L665[16:46:47] <darsie> BFR, then.
L666[16:47:46] <darsie> Or put it the other way ... they'll charge 10 x the price for expendable.
L667[16:47:51] <Blaank> Wow, someone is upset with spacex and is blocking imagery while in orbit.
L668[16:48:01] <darsie> ofc I made 10x up.
L669[16:48:52] <darsie> And for a 800 launch contract you sure will get a nice price.
L670[16:49:15] <FltAdmVonSpiz> it was assuming 150t payload for BFR
L671[16:49:21] <FltAdmVonSpiz> whichever that is
L672[16:49:53] <FltAdmVonSpiz> I wonder if 800 launches is enough for construction localisation
L673[16:49:56] <darsie> A BFR is expensive. Fuel is cheap.
L674[16:50:00] <Blaank> I don't know if BFR has an expendible mode.
L675[16:51:00] <Blaank> You could save a lot of mass on the way up by constructing things in orbit out of raw materials and then you don't have to worry about dimenisions and can make 30m long single piece beams of stuff.
L676[16:51:02] <FltAdmVonSpiz> 800 launches would require a dedicated launch site
L677[16:51:14] <Blaank> Instead of 5m long segments with hinges.
L678[16:51:21] <FltAdmVonSpiz> then you have to launch the manufacturing plant
L679[16:51:42] <darsie> Make a factory on the Moon and launch from there, maybe with a mass driver.
L680[16:51:49] <Blaank> Yeah, it would be a balance. Past a certain mass saved by not having folding stuff you would have mass to cover the fabricator.
L681[16:51:49] <darsie> Or a sling shot.

L683[16:52:19] <FltAdmVonSpiz> if it can be done with direct launch, it can certainly be done with space industry if you catch my meaning
L684[16:52:40] <Blaank> What raw materials does the moon have to offer?
L685[16:52:51] <FltAdmVonSpiz> aluminium to make mirrors from
L686[16:53:06] <Blaank> Aluminum is nice.
L687[16:53:16] <Rokker> aluminum*
L688[16:53:42] <Rokker> where ever someone says aluminium, I'll be there to give then the correct spelling. I am pedantman

L692[16:54:09] <Blaank> Aluminum is the original spelling and aluminium was one guy trying to make it sound cool.
L693[16:54:16] <Rokker> ^
L694[16:54:33] <Rokker> well alumium is the original, but that's just dumb
L695[16:55:06] <darsie> I think aluminium is to make it like other metals like sodium, thorium, uranium, ...
L696[16:55:08] <Fluburtur> aluminium
L697[16:55:12] <FltAdmVonSpiz> but in either case
L698[16:55:16] <FltAdmVonSpiz> 800 BFR launches is an awful lot
L699[16:55:21] <Blaank> Yes, he wanted it to sound cool like all the other ium stuff at the time.
L700[16:55:31] <FltAdmVonSpiz> but SpaceX probably wont want payload localisation which causes issues
L701[16:55:36] <Fluburtur> the bfr doesn't exist yet even
L702[16:55:42] <Fluburtur> and they want to launch 800
L703[16:55:43] <FltAdmVonSpiz> yeah
L704[16:55:44] <Blaank> Useful there would be titanium, iron, aluminum, and silicon.
L705[16:55:47] <FltAdmVonSpiz> hence 200 falcon heavies
L706[16:55:49] <Fluburtur> it takes like 50 years to launch that much

L710[16:56:16] <Blaank> Well I'm pretty sure with enough cash they could launch a BFR each week.

L719[16:57:41] <FltAdmVonSpiz> put a cheap fused regolith heat shield on them
L720[16:57:43] <FltAdmVonSpiz> and a kicker motor
L721[16:57:54] <Blaank> No, I mean get them to the construction station.
L722[16:57:58] <Blaank> That's in earth orbit.
L723[16:58:09] <darsie> Blaank: Aerobraking and raising periapsis with rocket?
L724[16:58:22] <Blaank> You could have some dinky RCS on them. Cold gas type.
L725[16:58:31] <darsie> Or just lower apoapsis with rocket.
L726[16:58:43] <Blaank> Rock heat shield could soak up some of the apoapsis.
L727[16:58:47] <darsie> Or tether momentum exchange. Recharges tethers.
L728[16:58:48] <Blaank> It'd be a pain.
L729[16:59:11] <Blaank> Cargo shuttles might make more sense at that point.
L730[16:59:17] <Blaank> Lot more controllable.
L731[16:59:32] <darsie> Just another word for rocket.
L732[16:59:34] <FltAdmVonSpiz> launch it out of the Moon SOI with the railgun
L733[16:59:38] <FltAdmVonSpiz> then use an ion or arcjet tug
L734[16:59:39] <Rokker> Blaank: as I understand it the plan is usually to still use a kicker upper stage
L735[16:59:42] <darsie> Anyways, lower delta-v from the Moon.
L736[17:00:05] <Blaank> Ok, moon to earth orbit will have lower dV than earth to earth orbit.
L737[17:00:14] <FltAdmVonSpiz> yeah but making mirrors on the moon is not going to be cheap
L738[17:00:20] <FltAdmVonSpiz> compared to making them in a shed somewhere

L745[17:01:48] <Blaank> I'm just sort of wondering how this magical cargo railgun actually gets captured once it reaches destination. If it has to contain it's own guidance and propulsion and communication and power generation systems, that eats a ton of the payload.
L746[17:01:57] <darsie> Use self replicating machines ;).
L747[17:02:37] <FltAdmVonSpiz> seems rather drastic
L748[17:02:37] <FltAdmVonSpiz> 300 billion dollars for 2000 expendable Falcons is a not but not big enough for that to be worhth it :P
L749[17:03:19] <darsie> I'm sorry, I missed the beginning of the thread. Why expendable?
L750[17:03:30] <darsie> Do you have large chunks that can't be broken up?
L751[17:04:29] <Blaank> Also keep in mind that end of life falcons aren't much more expensive in expendable than reusable modes.
L752[17:04:44] <Blaank> Since it's the last useful launch, it's going to be scrapped anyway.
L753[17:05:03] <FltAdmVonSpiz> darsie: no, its just noone has good figures for LEO payload/cost for a reusable launch
L754[17:05:12] <FltAdmVonSpiz> found $150m and 63,800kg to LEO for expendable

L760[17:08:10] <darsie> sorry, I didn't mean to bring you down.
L761[17:11:25] <Kalpa> Blaank: Easy, you build a receiver station of course
L762[17:12:45] <Kalpa> A series of receiver satellites, basicly giant electromagnets that you aim the railgun-payload (mass driver cargo pod) precisely towards
L763[17:13:38] <Blaank> That requires the payload to have guidance or to externally adjust it's trajectory.
L764[17:13:41] <Kalpa> And they will try and slow the mass packet down
L765[17:13:45] <Blaank> You could adjust it's aim by lasering it.
L766[17:14:28] <Kalpa> No, that just requires advanced calculations for precision. Naturally fine-tuning will be done on the receiver side, ie. they will adjust their orbits to intercept the mass packet
L767[17:14:56] <Blaank> earth based electric tether things to raise and lower altitude with electricty would be helpful there as slowing down the package would impart momentum on you. You could actually have it push you prograde and then recover electricty by using the tethers to give you electricty and lower your apoapsis back to normal.
L768[17:15:07] <Kalpa> Although I'm not entirely sure what the use of this would be, the stations would need to be resupplied with fuel eventually as every capture would expend their own inertia when they slow down the mass packet
L769[17:15:29] <Blaank> You can raise and lower with the electronic tethers interacting with earth's magnetic field.
L770[17:15:41] <Blaank> Also you can alternate catching packets retrograde and prograde.
L771[17:15:59] <Kalpa> That's actually a good idea. Didn't even think of it myself.
L772[17:16:02] <Blaank> Timing it right you should be able to balance out orbits entirely from catching packets though it could reduce throughput.
L773[17:16:35] <darsie> Kalpa: Slowing mass from moon would add energy to LEO tethers.

L776[17:16:59] <Blaank> So we are looking at magnetic catcher mitts.
L777[17:17:34] <Blaank> With tethes and electircty flowing through them interacting with earth's magnetic field to adjust altitude and balancing the catching throughout a month to keep orbits mostly stable.
L778[17:17:55] <Blaank> That would allow a single factory station to catch packets from the moon.
L779[17:18:13] <FltAdmVonSpiz> .... you could put a magcoil tether on the payload
L780[17:18:20] <FltAdmVonSpiz> and drop it into a highly elliptical orbit
L781[17:18:21] <Blaank> I'd suggest fine tuning of incoming packet orbit be done with laser ablation or reflection.
L782[17:18:29] <FltAdmVonSpiz> it cna thrust against the earth's magnetic field
L783[17:19:10] <Blaank> I think you'd save more mass by a direct capture than sacrificing payload for the magcoil tether.
L784[17:19:36] <Blaank> Ideally it would be a completely inert packet with no guidance, comms, power, or propulsion.
L785[17:19:55] <Eddi|zuHause> 800 launches in 10 years is still almost 2 launches per week

L788[17:20:17] <Kalpa> Ultimately you'd want to construct a... this thing has been named after some guy I'm pretty sure, but you'd want to construct an artificial ring around Earth's equator, tall enough that the top end would be above atmosphere and whatnot, but that's kinda 1000 years from now and mostly scifi at this point

L868[20:01:25] <FltAdmVonSpiz> maneuvering thousand tonne rockets around is somewhat... problematic
L869[20:01:28] <Scolar_Visari> Or, ahem, launching nano-sat payloads from a submarine via a modified SLBM.
L870[20:01:40] <FltAdmVonSpiz> the idea of a swing arm launcher for Falcon would be fun
L871[20:01:43] <FltAdmVonSpiz> but rather.... enrmous
L872[20:02:00] * Scolar_Visari notes at least two satellites have been launched into orbit via submarines.
L873[20:04:36] <Scolar_Visari> Rather than reduce turnaround times for launch pads, just employ lots of launch pads.

L875[20:06:21] * Scolar_Visari could actually see a use for having submarines carrying at least one orbital launch rocket for deploying tactical satellites like Kestrel Eye.
L876[20:08:15] <FltAdmVonSpiz> also I have to assume barge recovery of stages downrange has a far lower effect on payload than returning stages to the launch site?
L877[20:08:27] <FltAdmVonSpiz> as the stage just has to kill its orbital velocity and not reverse its trajectory
L878[20:08:35] <Scolar_Visari> Yes, but it can also be inconvenient if there are rough seas.
L879[20:08:47] <Scolar_Visari> Barges are not terribly seaworthy.
L880[20:09:41] <Scolar_Visari> It should also increase turnaround times and costs, though not *too* much given how cheap it is to ship things on the water; excluding added infrastructure.
L881[20:09:43] <FltAdmVonSpiz> yeah, but if you could find a setup
L882[20:09:52] <FltAdmVonSpiz> you might be able to find a range with a small uninhabited island in the right position
L883[20:10:46] <Scolar_Visari> You'd still need to set it up for shipping. Small islands tend to lack proper harbors!
L884[20:11:10] * Scolar_Visari mutters something about having proper gliding boosters.
L885[20:13:16] <FltAdmVonSpiz> yeah
L886[20:13:30] <FltAdmVonSpiz> but a landing site made of concrete has the advantage of not rolling in every direction
L887[20:13:37] <FltAdmVonSpiz> like that Ariane thing?
L888[20:14:40] <Scolar_Visari> I was thinking of early STS concepts and some Energia booster swing-wings.

L893[20:24:26] <Scolar_Visari> Psht can be done.

L919[20:41:43] <bees> FltAdmVonSpiz: i think it would violate several treaties about weapons of mass destruction

L921[20:42:15] <FltAdmVonSpiz> each spot would be covered in power plants or whatever and produce up to 185GWe per spot
