[00:02:10] My friend wants to fly with me to the Canary Islands (qest of Africa, we're in Austria), but I don't want to fly because of its CO2 emissions. So I said I'd fly with her if she brings a surface sample of Duna back to Kerbin :). It's a real challenge for her. She doesn't like playing it. [00:02:52] duna? dang' [00:02:59] thats a tough one [00:03:06] Duna is super easy. [00:03:36] not to me lol only managed to go there once and crash landed probe, left only computer and solar lol its functional but... [00:04:01] 0.1 deg plane change, atmosphere for aerobraking and parachutes, but so little it doesn't matter much during ascent. [00:05:17] Try fetching a surface sample from Eve :). [00:05:40] That's tough. [00:06:55] lol eve air is very thick. went there on cheat engine [00:07:10] at max cheat engine rocket was flying upwards VERY slowly. [00:08:23] I guess some form of plane probe would work [00:08:29] When I fetche a surface sample from Eve there was this bug that would reduce reentry heat with physics warp. Dunno if my rocket would work nowadays.

[05:16:08] testing shows some shaking on landing legs near spaceport... [05:16:30] half way to flying it out to north pole, got pulled from PC for some hours to help with something. :\ [05:17:46] Then suddenly it explodes. Blast Awesomeness: 2.8 [05:18:10] previous tests shows it would rather spin on the ground than blow up [08:03:54] https://imgur.com/X0rnqwB [08:03:54] https://i.imgur.com/X0rnqwB.jpg [09:54:51] hmm... [09:55:07] trying to recreate an oddity in ksp... [09:56:05] the cabin on legs just shimmies around, previously, it was sliding around and spinning on the spot [10:34:07] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [11:52:40] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZqgO9CdEV2s [11:52:40] YouTube - Munar 1 [12:10:22] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_engine [15:06:32] i don't think i understood a single word of what that article was talking about [15:11:35] ;tell transitbiker I need your help [15:11:36] Fluburtur: I'll let transitbiker know when I see them [15:16:46] hehe, the boring company flamethrower... came from space balls, when yoghurt shows the merchandise and there is a flamethrower [17:04:14] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [17:33:45] not much happened today [17:34:02] spacex in less than 10 hours [17:39:26] Althego: soooooo early in the morning here [17:39:38] i will be up around that tim [17:39:39] e [17:39:52] but seriously problematic to watch [18:19:20] Althego: I made a flatter lander: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot25.png I could also slim down the rest of the rocket a lot. [18:20:39] Action: APlayer sees Duna mission, APlayer is interested [18:20:45] lot better [18:22:01] APlayer: Duna sample return: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot28.png [18:22:20] That's a manned sample return, though. :P [18:22:28] yes [18:22:49] there really should be robotic sample possibility in stock [18:22:55] I did a womaned one, too. [18:22:55] with a new instrument [18:23:08] actually you did a balled sample return :) [18:23:17] balled? [18:23:23] not hu-manned, byt ker-balled :) [18:23:30] :) [18:23:39] was in some scott video [18:23:46] why so many chutes [18:24:14] Althego: droge and top chute for landing, radial chute for Kerbin landing. [18:24:43] so you go back dctly to kerbin [18:25:01] I get back to orbit, refuel at the second stage, then to Kerbin. [18:26:23] i would use an interplanetary stage and that could contain the parachutes for landing on kerbin [18:27:13] Why not reuse the Duna descend vehicle? [18:27:40] just the cabin [18:27:56] and kerbin landing parachutes would remain in orbit [18:28:15] ok, not much gain at duna [18:28:39] on eve, or at jool (especially tylo) this could potentially mean a lot [18:28:45] So reorbit with the lander, then detach the fuel tank and reattach a different fuel tank? [18:29:00] leave the empty tank there [18:29:13] On Duna surface? [18:29:29] Or in orbit? [18:29:30] no, you need it to go back into orbit [18:29:33] yeah [18:29:40] but you dont need it to go back to kerbin [18:29:52] I need fuel to get back to Kerbin. [18:29:57] only if you have a direct ascent to kerbin [18:30:08] but you dont need to take down that fuel to duna [18:30:20] that can remain in orbit with the returning parachute [18:30:52] but as i said the gains for this at duna are not too high [18:30:55] The tank is almost empty after reorbit. Then I dock to the second stage and refuel the lander and fly with it to Kerbin. [18:31:29] kind of strange way to do it [18:31:49] I woudn't need to bring down the heat shield to Duna. [18:31:56] because if you already docked you could coma back with that [18:32:04] that too [18:32:33] Yeah, maybe the second stage has enough fuel to get back to Kerbin, not sure. [18:32:38] normally the interplanetary cruise stage would be nuclear and the landing/ascent chemical [18:33:18] But the lander needs much less fuel than the whole second stage (+ lander). [18:34:02] I tried to use only mundane stuff, no nuclear/ion. [18:34:36] and i try to use decent twr so in many cases no nuclear. too tiring to break orbit [18:35:06] There is no weight in orbit ;). [18:35:33] But yeah, there is gravity. [18:35:45] nm [18:40:35] ffffff.... [18:40:45] stupid morning.. [18:40:50] crazier physics [18:41:18] so.. small base craft on large legs, caution, may cause angry craft to jump out at you. [18:41:54] don't dare drop spring/damp down to near 0 or 0.1, instant launch off the ground when physics eases up [18:44:51] anyways enough messing around.. video editing will have to wait for later. Roommate needed help with something today. :\ [20:17:10] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Supernovy' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [20:17:21] Evening, Gentlemen. [20:18:14] Hi Gentlewomen.

[21:03:08] i used to find election results fascinating, but over the last decade and a half they got sader and sader... [21:04:19] what did the fat guy with glasses said about forgetting history again? [21:05:48] i'm sure he's now considered a racist for some random side note, and everything he ever said is thus invalid. [21:06:31] maybe the fat guy im talking abotu didn't have glasses [21:06:46] doesn't matter [21:14:57] if you mean what i think you mean, the quote seems to originate from this guy https://de.wikiquote.org/wiki/George_Santayana [21:15:50] yeah that one [21:23:23] battleship island is a good movie [21:24:23] i can't remember the last "good movie" i watched... there were a bunch of "well, that was somewhat entertaining" movies [21:28:49] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o APlayer' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net
