L23[07:53:15] <Eddi|zuHause> i've been thinking, wouldn't it be a much better idea, instead of enlarging a disco ball to be the size of the moon, to cover the moon surface with regular sized disco balls?

L24[07:53:40] <Mat2ch> Interesting question.

L25[07:53:57] <XXCoder> more scattering of light

L26[07:54:09] <XXCoder> it'd look a lot more blue/white

L27[07:54:10] <Mat2ch> But I would just use panels, because they are easier to stack and transport

L28[07:56:22] <Eddi|zuHause> but wouldn't panels have the problem that you need to orient them randomly?

L29[07:58:02] <Eddi|zuHause> the cost of moving stuff into space is usually given in terms of mass, how negligible is volume?

L30[07:58:35] <Mat2ch> The panels could be very light. Plastic-foam-plastic-reflectiveFoil

L31[07:59:41] <Eddi|zuHause> yes, but you could make the disc balls of the same material

L32[07:59:53] <Eddi|zuHause> *disco

L33[08:01:12] <Eddi|zuHause> (also, at that scale, you're probably better off transporting a disco ball factory to the moon)

L49[10:35:27] <Mat2ch> Althego: White 2.0 would make diffuse light. We have to paint it with mirror paint.

L50[10:36:03] <Althego> dont you need a smooth surface to start from?

L51[10:36:13] <XXCoder> white 2.0 would turn moon into extremely bright object

L52[10:36:28] <XXCoder> alt it doesnt matter, moon is actually quite dark

L53[10:36:35] <XXCoder> theres just no competition

L54[10:37:32] <XXCoder> so white 2.0 probably would make full moon much brighter. dunno on exact math would be though lol

L55[10:37:45] <Mat2ch> But to get a disco ball you need flat pieces of something that reflects in one direction

L56[10:37:55] <Mat2ch> otherwise you wouldn't get those spots everywhere

L57[10:38:04] <XXCoder> yep. ironically except for flashes, disco moon is much darker

L58[10:38:06] <Althego> rotates slowly not much of a disco ball

L59[10:38:32] <XXCoder> if you just want bright, just paint it with white 2.0 lol
