[00:38:40] no explosions yet... [04:38:42] that metal sound is still there at the end of the burn [08:01:49] Althego: that's resonance [08:02:05] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o raptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [08:02:22] and something burned after the test. So I guess we wont see another test this week [08:02:36] no, this is resonance https://www.gog.com/game/resonance :) [08:03:07] there were some spark like bright spots flying away [08:03:12] i dont remember those from last time [08:03:27] me neither [08:03:31] could be stuff on the ground, [08:03:37] could be parts of the engine... [08:03:49] "engine rich exhaust" (scott) [08:11:37] regeneratively cooled nozzles presumably run much leaner than ablatively cooled ones [09:08:13] on the Labpadre stream they speculated that it was concrete from the test stand [09:09:11] Maybe molten steel from reinforced concrete. [09:37:17] engine-rich combustion cycle [10:10:20] there is always an other intel bug https://platypusattack.com/ [10:10:27] (with silly name and mascot, of course) [12:36:54] (local) leet time [16:33:20] wintergatan [16:34:42] next test is cancelled, but it was a backup date. the next primary is still up. so it looks like it was successful [16:42:43] we will see. :D [16:42:57] Was a one engine only test. Probably the new one they hadn't tested yet [16:43:09] maybe static fire, full duration next? [16:49:31] Althego: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zb2M61C9WZI [16:49:54] ah scott [16:50:13] but i am still watching the wintergatan video [16:58:00] 10k marble drop test [16:58:07] almost as good as a 3 raptor static fire [17:01:50] everyday astronaut is making a russian rocket documentary. i guess it is going to be 1 hour long again [17:03:44] should be interesting [17:06:31] Hey [17:06:34] Althego, [17:06:57] Would you go shirtless outside in 0 degrees C? [17:07:04] no [17:07:50] Would you consider 15C disgustingly warm/hot? [17:08:01] depends on how far to the Sauna [17:08:15] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jM61ZkUoO4U [17:08:16] There is no sauna [17:08:18] 4k slow mo [17:08:41] who would go shirtless outside in a freeze, without a nearby sauna? [17:09:24] I heard people say 10-15 C is disgustingly hot and 0C is fine t-shirt weather [17:09:49] I mean, if I was going to work up a sweat shoveling snow... [17:09:55] i admit i am on the other side of the bell curve, but that is extreme [17:10:24] I have seen photos where people are in thick jackets and one guy is wearing a t shirt [17:10:32] packbart: uh, I saw someone yesterday (I think) in a t-shirt walking around here. It was below 10° C [17:12:07] there was a story. simulator center, i think it was in france. people from several nations there. it was getting cold. spanish people in coats and almost freezing, germans in shirt, and i forgot what nation the norther guy was who was in t-shirt [17:20:07] I usually wear just a t-shirt, too. plus a jacket outside [18:09:10] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o raptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [19:03:32] I wonder if it's better to get off Kerbin prograde to reach this retrograde orbit and then turn around at Ap. https://i.imgur.com/0YTyt9i.png [19:05:24] Hmm, equatorila ground speed is just 175 m/s. [19:05:46] Action: darsie launches retrograde. [19:07:58] to me the scariest part of the ride would be the walking to the capsule on that bridge [19:08:02] https://twitter.com/SpaceX/status/1326517156301791232 [19:32:13] hehe, physicist doesnt recommend touching a neutron star [19:32:32] caution: hot [19:32:38] also spinning [19:50:29] Hewwo JVFoxy [19:50:42] heyas [19:50:52] feel bad for not coming by as often as I used to. :( [19:51:14] Action: minas_tirith boops JVFoxy [19:51:16] How are you [19:51:42] not quite awake... [19:52:01] Action: raptop hands JVFoxy a cup of coffee [19:55:11] ya.. eventually [19:55:51] JVFoxy, don't apologize for having a life unlike the rest of us [19:57:21] Action: JVFoxy ehs..? [19:57:43] everyone's different, figured that was a given already [20:23:47] ehh, life [20:24:01] last ksp save is still 2nd August
