[14:07:23] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jTMJK7wb0rM another starlink launch. Iirc 6th reflight of the booster [14:23:54] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Deddly' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [14:24:23] Less than 8 mins [14:24:26] to launch [14:25:15] 6th flight for this booster [14:29:55] T- 2 minutes [14:31:24] T- 30 seconds [14:31:55] Launch! [14:41:50] aaaaaand landing [14:42:03] but on launch for a second it looked like one of the engines had a failure [14:42:36] Oh really? [14:43:16] I just rewatched it, it's the clouds that make that impression [14:43:26] Ah [14:43:50] The light up bright red [14:44:00] just like it looks, when an engine burns itself... [14:44:04] At T+ 2:00 they don't seem evenly spaced [14:44:51] that's probably due to upper winds and gimbaling [14:45:18] At 40 km altitude? [14:45:35] I guess [14:45:55] That was a great launch/landing [15:10:13] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [15:15:24] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o raptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [15:38:06] eh starlink mission finished [15:43:34] 6th landing with very nice coverage [15:47:19] now they can live stream the landing, but somehow for the sat separation the stream always cuts out [15:48:09] They need to tap into Starlink itself for better coverage [15:48:14] hehe [15:56:25] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o raptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [16:02:51] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o purpletarget|ktns' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [16:18:17] Althego: ionization of the upper atmosphere probably causes the communications loss [16:18:39] just at the moment of deployment [16:18:44] not before or after [16:19:12] Oh, that's what you meant, sorry, I missread that [16:19:34] well, hopefully this batch closes that gap ;) [16:32:31] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o purpletarget|ktns' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [17:31:49] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+v kbuck' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [20:22:55] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o raptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [21:28:46] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptor' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net
