[00:10:31] uh... [00:10:59] plasma off the re-entry heating blocking signal.. if you have that feature turend on [03:22:44] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o Althego' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [04:21:27] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [05:13:53] hmm, 2 robot dogs? zeus and apollo lol [05:24:27] fun [05:27:00] have some For All Mankind https://social.shadowkat.net/media/dd5b7f529e4c4665fca8815f098e11a62cde6f783837649401cc7d218a4bb00a.jpg [05:49:22] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WeIVJyufJrE [05:49:23] or [05:49:28] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lW07SN3YoLI [05:57:58] the spacex one (second) seems to be ahead by about 20 seconds [06:59:00] the omnipresent pad ninjas [07:44:57] about two hours until launch [08:23:07] still [08:31:52] there is some partial data and video from the second flight of ingenuity [08:39:08] oops https://www.itv.com/news/anglia/2021-04-22/addenbrookes-hospital-helipad-destroyed-during-military-training-exercise [08:49:22] less than an hour [08:49:36] wait, is that concrete that peels off? [08:49:55] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ObfdLy-QlsU [08:50:09] looks more like some kind of mat [08:50:39] then just lay it out again and it is fixed [08:50:51] it even rolls up nicely. [08:51:01] maybe not that easy [08:51:19] there's a plastic foil beneath it. [08:51:24] the issue here was i think it didnt land on it, but next to it, so the flow was not pushing down ot it, but blowing over it, creating a low pressure zone [08:51:44] and it could peel it off from the side, which would not have been possible from the center [08:51:49] all shredded to pieces. [08:51:56] But now they might get a concrete pad. [08:52:21] a solid, concrete solution :) [08:52:22] if that thing would've landed there, it probably had crushed it due to its weight. [08:52:44] yes. but expert pilots can land while hovering [08:52:48] keeping most of the weight off [08:53:42] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bP4oscYF_5g [08:59:13] not sure if you can do that with an Osprey. [09:00:14] it can land in full heli mode [09:05:58] yes, but can you hover it? [09:06:26] Or are the controls so slow that you can't do the guide rail trick? [09:06:51] why would the controls be slow? [09:07:19] the only difference is that you dont have a cyclic but some strange cyclic-throttle thing that functions similarly [09:09:16] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmUkCNlj7rY [09:13:39] well, usually you control the pitch of the rotos [09:13:41] *rotors [09:14:08] and that has to be very fast so you can responed to small drops [09:14:16] that's why it's usually linked directly [09:14:30] I guess in this case it is done by hydraulics [09:14:37] and they have some delay [09:15:36] it functions as a cyclic in full helicpterm ode [09:20:00] Oh, wait, I think I remember a picture of an Ospray touch the ground only with the back gear at a slope [09:24:15] or was that a CH-46? [09:25:08] https://everipedia.org/wiki/lang_en/Boeing_CH-47_Chinook [09:25:13] not an Osprey. [09:25:24] https://everipedia-storage.s3.amazonaws.com/NewlinkFiles/3895676/20850328.jpg [09:25:26] file. [09:31:39] Soon. [09:31:59] tm [09:33:20] It may say I left but I’m just going to another app on mobile [09:36:21] 10 minutes left! [09:36:34] are you from the future? [09:36:55] why? :P [09:39:04] Here we go [09:47:30] what, no countdown? [09:47:53] liftoff [09:51:43] i guess it flew up into the sunrise [09:55:07] I appreciate that only the commentary has american customary units and everything else is in standard units [09:57:45] yes spacex made the right choice [09:58:52] are those full space suits? [09:59:01] so it was basically a textbook launch [09:59:08] no, those are IVA spacesuits [09:59:19] and the life suport system is in the dragon [09:59:33] those are mostly to protect against unexpected depressurisation rather than for any amount of EVA activity right? [09:59:41] yes [09:59:46] i doubt they could leave the chair [09:59:49] seat [09:59:58] what is the difference between a chair and a seat? [10:00:11] one of them is spelled chair and one of them is spelled seat, as far as i know [10:00:35] manned reflight of the capsule and the booster [10:01:35] pretty impressive [10:02:00] my only issue is, this should have been the standard 30 years ago [10:04:27] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o TheKosmonaut' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [10:06:53] Althego: there are so many things that should've been standard 30 years ago. But that would be politics ;) [10:17:34] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZX24dPIAGg need more. [10:18:33] yes this is what i said partial data and video [10:18:45] there should be more today [10:18:57] next we can wait for the sound too [10:19:15] maybe on the 3rd or 4th flight [10:19:35] somehow they are afraid of turning on the mic because of electromagnetic interference [10:20:01] did they just pull us the dont use the phone on the plane lie on us this time too? [10:20:51] hrhr [10:31:40] new stream for the cruise https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oqA0ndN-rDc [10:33:34] they have snacks on board [10:33:39] they are kerbals! [11:17:09] Crew-2 is currently in orbit and is expected to autonomously dock with the International Space Station on Saturday, April 24, at approximately 5:10 a.m. EDT, 9:10 UTC. [11:36:07] (local) leet time [11:36:42] . [11:54:48] elon is there in the live conference [11:54:56] so that is why he is not tweeting :) [11:56:14] oh no, phoenix is coming up too [12:00:53] hehe cant move the cat to start the stream [12:02:47] kikkerikii [12:09:47] i still hate how elon talks [12:10:13] makes it hard to understand at double speed, and also sounds annoying [12:10:26] how does he talk? [12:10:31] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUkumXiFaqw [12:10:57] he has these small pauses often [12:11:35] indeed he does [12:12:35] the mask doesn't help [12:12:54] probably keeps sucking it in [12:13:35] he always talks like that. at double speed with kiara talking over him, he is about as comprehensible for me as the japanese guy [12:14:02] yeah, I always watch at 2x speed [12:31:41] so is there a static fire today? [14:33:22] again no static fire today. [14:33:27] What's the hold up? [14:34:06] Fire is an inherently dynamic process ;).\ [14:34:17] hehe [14:34:24] but a tfr for Monday. Weird. [14:34:35] what happens if you double free a fire? [14:35:02] California AND Australia burns down. [14:35:26] *burn [14:35:29] Both in winter. [14:35:50] it turns out, if the battery is swollen and removes the back cover, you can easily remove the battery in a matter of minutes http://warpology.com/x/s7.jpg [14:36:47] also somehow s7 batteries are still available [14:36:58] and i dont need to completely assemble it anyways [14:37:24] maybe i buy a battery and fix the backplate with electric tape, because i dont have a heat gun [14:41:13] go for it [14:41:28] a new battery should cost you in the 10 EUR range [14:42:29] yes it is around that [14:42:50] I replaced the battery on my N9 once [14:43:01] had to buy a very small torx bit, too :D [14:43:02] atfer this picture it took me an hour to remove the sticky black goo [14:43:13] more alcohol [14:43:41] i actually have a 64 bit (lol) screwdriver set [14:43:53] didnt need to use it for this [16:36:44] Althego, Groeten [16:38:09] there is nothing cruvis with me [16:39:00] minas_tirith, i don't suppose you have a fetish for eye sockets? [16:39:43] flayer, why? [16:40:01] i used to know someone on irc named silmukopaaanen or something [16:40:27] thats a finnish sounding name [16:40:37] it is, but the person is dutch [16:41:47] but where are the images from today's downlink [18:34:44] heh another full length documentary from everyday astronaout. this time about the starship landing. he mentioned this several times. it took quite a while [18:35:13] docking tomorrow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DbB2-CCrzO0 [18:36:08] hehe a small kerbal rocket is in it [18:38:36] oh and there is a what about it too [19:00:49] where do you see the kerbal rocket? [19:01:07] Das eine ist ja Zivilrecht, das andere Strafrecht [19:05:57] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqJ5bKuApbs in this [19:18:47] Am I a bot? [19:19:01] doesnt look like it [19:19:29] still can be a robot arm typing through htte webchat [19:38:11] Action: raptop beeps innocently [19:38:45] there is the joke when the robot arm checks the i am not a robot box in the captcha
