L57[04:33:21] <Deddly> Seriously tho, please do mind the language in here. Also hi
L58[04:34:40] <Kalpa> Can I go with "I've been here longer than you have" ?
L59[04:34:48] <Deddly> No you cannot
L60[04:34:59] <Kalpa> Hmh, I could've swordn.
L61[04:35:02] <Kalpa> sworn even
L62[04:36:53] <Deddly> You probably have been here longer, but the length of time a person has been attending the channel does not relate to whether or not they can break the rules.
L63[04:38:26] <Kalpa> It seems we got off the wrong foot into this conversation.
L64[04:38:36] <Zarthus> Rats. I've been idling in here for 2 years to get closer to that goal
L65[04:38:37] <Kalpa> I am not here to challenge your authority.
L66[04:39:07] <Deddly> Sorry for misreading you, Kalpa :)
L67[04:43:59] <Deddly> Zarthus is an exception though. He gets to wipe the entire channel any time we forget to polish his shoes
L68[04:44:43] <Zarthus> genuinely i don't actually care that much about the polish of my shoes
L69[04:44:55] <Zarthus> exterminating another planet would be too much of a chore in response
L70[04:46:27] <TheKosmonaut> Zarthus: to be fair, you *could* do pretty much whatever you wanted
L71[04:46:31] <TheKosmonaut> But you won't
L72[04:46:38] <TheKosmonaut> Because you are a kind God
L73[04:46:40] <Deddly> You prefer another nationality on your shoes, Zarthus?
L74[04:47:50] <Zarthus> It's simple maths, if I kill everyone doing my chores for me I'll have to do them myself.
L75[04:48:42] <Deddly> Wise AND malevolent
L76[04:49:26] <Zarthus> besides, it's a good day. I'm hoping I get to play the preview of Kerbal Royale
L77[04:50:35] <Zarthus> (real talk though, the Path Of Exile Royale actually looked kind of fun for a gimmick)

L85[05:44:23] <maltesh> Welp, that's it. Just came back in from watching Tiangong-1 pass overhead. -0.4 magnitude, much brighter than the only other pass I've watched, which I think was at about +2.7 or thereabouts.
L86[05:45:04] <maltesh> Luckily the skies were clear enough, wasn't expecting to get a chance to see it before it came down.
L87[05:45:11] <Althego> hmm quite bright
L88[05:45:42] <Althego> still half a day until it comes down
L89[05:45:56] <Althego> +-10 hours or so
L90[05:47:37] <maltesh> True, but unless you're /really/ willing to put work in, you're only going to see satellite passes when you're in the dark and the satellite isn't, and this was the absolute last easily-visible pass Heavens Above predicted for my location.
L91[05:51:54] <Althego> i dont have passes remaining
L92[05:57:38] <Zarthus> TheKosmonaut: nonsense, there's a trend of unfinished incomplete buggy royale games

L107[06:07:33] <Zarthus> vaulting? like Fallout style?
L108[06:08:14] <Zarthus> honestly, if I were the ceo of Bluehole, I'd be a bit embarassed.
L109[06:08:44] <Zarthus> Sure, I'd be raking in cash and that's the most important bit, I can retire. But I still put something broken on the steam store and never intend to fix it

L172[08:22:55] <FltAdmVonSpiz> are SoIs calculated dynamically? ie. if you had that system would it recalibrate properly

L224[09:36:04] <Pakaran> the current issue, WITH the current drop tanks, it's a bit too heavy for the pad (158 tonnes vs 140).
L225[09:36:08] <Althego> it is basically a figure 8 with high retrograde non capturing flyby around the mun
L226[09:36:12] <FltAdmVonSpiz> as I Recall the Jool thing is because the numbers have been set incorrecly
L227[09:36:20] <ManuxKerb> hi, i was just wondering, in on the surface of minus and how do i know in wich direction i have to burn to need the least amount of fuel to get an encounter with kerbin and not burn out of soi....Thanks! :-)
L228[09:36:45] <FltAdmVonSpiz> with minmus I just make orbit going in either east or west
L229[09:36:55] <FltAdmVonSpiz> then work it out in mapview after
L230[09:36:57] <Pakaran> without, I'm I feel like I'm underutilizing the KLF 250 first stage engine, and I think the delta-v is marginal to make orbit.
L231[09:37:04] <Pakaran> With solids, it's a royal mass problem.
L232[09:37:54] <Pakaran> I still want to do a sandbox test, including say a 2700 m/s entry to validate the ability of the heat shield to, er, shield the rather stupid bullet shaped array of hitchhikers.
L233[09:38:06] <ManuxKerb> FltAdmVonSpiz: Thanks! but is there a rule of some sort to do it for example on the mun. I see ppl burn in the right direction on youtube but no explonation was given
L234[09:39:06] <Althego> usually people go prograde
L235[09:39:09] <Pakaran> I've seen planes with basically the same pressurized section, but they also have a lot of wing to absorb the entry heating.
L236[09:39:13] <Althego> which means in the directions things rotat
L237[09:39:14] <Althego> e
L238[09:39:22] <Althego> so go towards east on takeoff
L239[09:39:34] <FltAdmVonSpiz> on bodies orbiting other bodies
L240[09:39:39] <FltAdmVonSpiz> if you chose your launch time you can ascend striaght up
L241[09:39:45] <Pakaran> It means that Minmus' spin is helping you.
L242[09:39:49] <Althego> then of course this determiens your burn towards kerbin which is on the side of the orbit facing kerbin
L243[09:39:50] <FltAdmVonSpiz> burn straight to escape
L244[09:39:53] <Althego> in case of minmus
L245[09:40:05] <Pakaran> Ideally you escape with your vector kerbin retrograde.
L246[09:40:08] <Althego> but in case of mun and minmus these wins are marginal
L247[09:40:27] <Pakaran> That means that you need a realtively small burn to almost cancel your Kerbin horizontal, and basically fall into an entry trajectory
L248[09:40:42] <Pakaran> Right, Minmus especially.
L249[09:40:53] <Althego> the problem with this is, that the trip back takes like 6 days
L250[09:41:08] <Pakaran> You usually boost a bit and arrive at say 3.4 kps?
L251[09:41:22] <Althego> so in case of minmus i usually avoid hohmann trajectories
L252[09:42:21] <Pakaran> makes sense.
L253[09:42:40] <Pakaran> doesn't take much fuel to save a lot of time, given the acceleration due to Kerbin's gravity out that far is pretty minimal
L254[09:45:44] <ManuxKerb> "Ideally you escape with your vector kerbin retrograde" what do you mean, i dont understand ...
L255[09:46:09] <Althego> say you are in an orbit around minmus from west to east

L257[09:46:26] <Althego> minmus is also in orbit around kerbin in the same direction
L258[09:46:37] <Althego> so where do velocities add?
L259[09:46:53] <Althego> when you are above the face of miinmus facing kerbin
L260[09:47:01] <Althego> if there you burn prograde
L261[09:47:10] <Althego> that would burn cancelling the orbtal velocity of minmus
L262[09:47:24] <Althego> that is kerbin retrograd
L263[09:47:46] <Althego> however note that minmus has an inclination, so to do it purely by markers is really hard

L271[09:54:41] <Fluburtur> kmath is wise sometimes
L272[09:54:45] <Althego> this is so simple for minmus because your orbital speed there is low compared to the speed you need for kerbin
L273[09:55:26] <Althego> for the mun the similar logic gives you a 45 degree position on your orbit for optimal burn (between mun "front" and kerbin facing side)

This happens because in KSP, every planet needs a low-res representation for higher distances. Building this low-res version is quite expensive, thats why it is done once and then gets cached inside of your savegame folder. When finished, your game should unlock and you should be able to explore a slightly different solar system.

L399[11:40:19] <ve2dmn> Tiagong-1 could land in china
L400[11:40:25] <Althego> hehe
L401[11:41:36] <ve2dmn> The ocean is, of course, the most probable one
L402[11:44:02] <FltAdmVonSpiz> those uncertainties are going to be shrinking
L403[11:44:05] <FltAdmVonSpiz> at least in one direction soon
L404[11:44:13] <FltAdmVonSpiz> unless it has already entered the atmosphere
L405[11:44:25] <Althego> no, it is still up
L406[11:44:46] <ve2dmn> The window is MUCH smaller now then 12h ago
L407[11:45:00] <Althego> in some of the predictions
L408[11:45:07] <Althego> and the esa predictions is not really one
L409[11:45:12] <Althego> it is around useless
L410[11:45:39] <ve2dmn> Althego: and if you go there, do not read the comments: http://blogs.esa.int/rocketscience/2018/03/26/tiangong-1-reentry-updates/
L411[11:46:20] <FltAdmVonSpiz> April 1st 22:30 +-5.8h is obviously wrong now
L412[11:46:24] <FltAdmVonSpiz> since it can only be -5h now at most
L413[11:47:43] <FltAdmVonSpiz> why havent the Chinese used it as an ASAT test or something?
L414[11:48:47] <ve2dmn> The lost control... the original plan was to dump it in the pacific
L415[11:49:05] <ve2dmn> That plan is now hard to do, since they lost all communications
L416[11:49:21] <Eddi|zuHause> so why is reentry this difficult to predict?
L417[11:49:38] <ve2dmn> Because air at this altitude is hard to predict
L418[11:49:51] <Eddi|zuHause> and why would it be easier if they could still predict it?
L419[11:50:01] <Eddi|zuHause> err
L420[11:50:03] <Eddi|zuHause> control it
L421[11:50:10] <ve2dmn> retro-burn
L422[11:50:13] <Althego> because it would make a deorbit burn
L423[11:50:25] <Althego> and fall down where they want it to
L424[11:50:46] <Althego> now all this depends on its tumbling, the state of th upper atmosphere, solar wind, and stuff like that
L425[11:51:25] <ve2dmn> The comments are giving me drain bamage...
L426[11:51:38] <Althego> that is basic stuff. never read the comments
L427[11:51:43] <ve2dmn> "Let's just blow up the thing"
L428[11:51:55] <ve2dmn> TL;DR ^
L429[11:51:58] <FltAdmVonSpiz> well breaking it into pieces would increase the likelyhood that the propellant tanks will rupture in the high atmosphere
L430[11:52:02] <FltAdmVonSpiz> eliminating the hydrazine risk
L431[11:52:08] <FltAdmVonSpiz> it will also get it to drop out of orbit faster
L432[11:52:24] <FltAdmVonSpiz> also just seems a perfect oportunity to test an ASAT on an actual target
L433[11:52:29] <Eddi|zuHause> so instead of one big piece orbiting uncontrollably you shatter it into thousands?
L434[11:52:30] <ve2dmn> FltAdmVonSpiz: yes, and creating a debri cloud
L435[11:52:39] <FltAdmVonSpiz> a debris cloud that will very shortly become suborbital
L436[11:52:50] <FltAdmVonSpiz> its no debris risk
L437[11:52:50] <Althego> and also burn up completely
L438[11:53:06] <Althego> but it is highly unlikely to hit anything anyway
L439[11:53:23] <ve2dmn> yeah... it's not a real risk to begin with
L440[11:53:54] <ve2dmn> so no point in trying to solve a problem that isn't that bad
L441[11:53:56] <Eddi|zuHause> anyone seen "dead like me"?
L442[11:57:01] <Eddi|zuHause> so anyway, the prediction basically says "it could be any minute now, over the next 10 hours"?
L443[11:58:10] <Althego> yes
L444[11:59:06] <ve2dmn> April 2nd, 2018 00:18 UTC ± 2 hours
L445[12:01:15] <Zarthus> utc+2 is not April 2 tho

L449[12:02:16] <Althego> some predictions still have higher error bars

L471[12:33:56] <ManuxKerb> this got me thinking, are rapiers the best engines to use for an ssto or would it be better to use normal supersonic engines and then instead of close cyling go forward with nirmal rockets ? what rocket/ egnies would you use for that ?
L472[12:34:08] <Fluburtur> uh since I started watching the tiangong 1 track the altitude went from 160 to 145km

L477[12:35:47] <Fluburtur> that's why I said that
L478[12:35:54] <Althego> but nobody said tiangong is in a circular orbit either
L479[12:36:20] <Fluburtur> true
L480[12:36:34] <Eddi|zuHause> one would assume that a non-circular orbit makes predicting reentry easier, as it would likely reenter at PE?
L481[12:36:35] <Althego> ManuxKerb: rapiers are really good, the only drawback is that they dont help you get off the ground. but if you get past that they are the best engines for an ssto
L482[12:36:39] <ManuxKerb> is there a youtube feed ? Do cameras still work in the tiangong?

L489[12:40:29] <Althego> nuclear is only worth it in an ssto if you want to go really far

L599[14:59:03] <Gasher> thrust lol
L600[14:59:23] <Gasher> they flameout on 0% fuel usually
L601[14:59:36] <Neal> I though they would flameout at -5% left
L602[14:59:52] <Neal> they should move that parameter from the fuel section to the thrust section though

L834[23:09:37] <Althego> ok you can change the topic back now
L835[23:10:29] <Supernovy> Ha, didn't even notice that.
L836[23:10:48] <AlonzoTG> the most craziest thing I did in kerbal was a part recovery contract on an old planet factory planet
L837[23:11:03] <AlonzoTG> I had this dinky little planet down between eve and Moho, iirc.
L838[23:11:12] <AlonzoTG> it had a thin tenuous atmosphere.
L839[23:11:31] <AlonzoTG> The part to recover spawned skimming ground level, through the atmosphere.
L840[23:11:36] <Althego> so tiangong-1 finally died
L841[23:11:42] <AlonzoTG> I took the contract, for some reason,
L842[23:11:52] <Althego> apparently fell into the ocean in the middle of nowhere
L843[23:12:13] <AlonzoTG> So when my grabber got down there it had this one-shot try to get the part because once the thing came into my physics bubble it would decay and come down...
L844[23:12:37] <AlonzoTG> so there I was chasing the thing through a canyon, with aero effects coming off my craft, going at orbital velocity.
L845[23:12:59] <AlonzoTG> I caught the sucker and burned hard to orbit.
L846[23:30:27] <Neal> sounds like project Azorian
