[10:33:11] didnt achieve orbit [10:33:19] https://twitter.com/Astra/status/1304602638697209857 [10:33:19] <✔Astra> Rocket is vertical and propellant is loading! https://t.co/VxBN91clza [12:32:24] paypal is blocking all transactions related to tardigrades [12:38:19] Because they are live animals? [12:39:09] To protect them? Or to avoid introducing them in other eco systems? [12:39:19] Althego: [12:39:42] neither [12:39:58] some weapons dealer had a company with tardigrade in the name [12:40:23] Sell them as water bears. [12:41:10] Use bitcoins. [12:41:13] Or monero. [12:41:19] Or money. [14:18:00] hi [14:18:15] is this a live chat? [14:18:32] No, this chat is only sleeping. [14:18:38] oh man [14:18:42] crazy [14:18:42] lmao [14:18:44] How did you guess my gender? [14:18:53] uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh [14:18:55] no comment. [14:19:08] . [14:19:12] . [14:20:16] bye [15:06:24] someone called hi was trolling elsewhere, could be the same one [15:22:58] well, darsie handled that well :) [15:24:28] :) [16:00:12] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o raptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [16:09:05] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+v eriophora' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [16:45:36] hehe [16:46:24] countertrolling division [16:48:28] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XxKxM99VFhw [16:48:28] YouTube - Kerbin encapsulated in a Megastructure - KSP [17:01:40] hehe adam savage sorts screws with his mom [17:01:59] Look, space is hard enough. It doesn't have to get even harder by having to hit that opening as well! ;) [17:04:23] Encapsulating Earth would give us a nice space port, though. [17:04:49] If we put all atmosphere inside. [17:05:30] or you could put some of it outside :) [17:05:58] I see no point doing that. [17:07:31] the point would be to have a balcony with some atmosphere held in place by force fields'n stuff [17:07:55] i meant atmoshphere around the whole sphere [17:07:59] you could just walk there [17:08:01] encapsulating earth would mean the end of poems about stars and the galaxy [17:08:12] (maybe that wouldn't be too bad) [17:08:15] Transparent encapsulation. [17:08:21] we could project an image of the outside to create visible stars :) [17:08:36] planet size display :) [17:09:16] "Are those black holes or just dead pixels?" :) [17:09:18] I thought of doing that on Mars, to create a higher pressure atmosphere. [17:09:41] the issue on mars is where to get the atmosphere [17:09:54] It's there. We'd just compress it. [17:10:00] ah [17:10:02] intersting [17:10:07] With a balloon. [17:11:37] Could be a bunch of huge domes, too, I guess. [17:27:52] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUH27R9pLNg [17:27:52] YouTube - SpaceX Boca Chica - Starship Test Tank SN7.1 readied for Burst Test [17:27:59] they're getting ready for Monday! [17:28:14] that is obvious [17:28:58] since there is a road closure on monday https://www.cameroncounty.us/spacex/ [17:29:20] but what can be the other one on 17th? [17:29:31] 4rd hop? [17:29:33] 3r [18:54:22] https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1304836575075819520 [18:54:22] <✔elonmusk> SN8 Starship with flaps & nosecone should be done in about a week. Then static fire, checkouts, static fire, fly to 60,000 ft & back. [18:54:26] I think he means it... [18:55:38] Elon time, but the profile sure [18:57:49] sn8 has been under construction for a while. so it is probably ready by the time he specified. the static fire and stuff is what always has problems [18:58:18] I mean, if it takes 2 weeks, he's very wrong but it's not that far in the future [19:11:52] hehe technology connections. (about capacitive touchscreen) ordinary gloves prevent your fingers from furiously fighting fictional fantasy foes [19:57:22] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o purpletarget|ktns' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [22:21:26] the folding rover's joints need some chiropractic. https://formularfetischisten.de/~packbart/temp/kspr1.jpg [22:21:43] it was just sitting there with its joints locked, waiting for the crew to arrive [23:25:38] nice
