[09:27:52] and all that is the printing poweder? [09:28:07] looks like it [09:28:15] also, I need a laser cutter [09:31:37] plasma cutter. for dismembering necromorphs [10:23:26] Action: darsie 's Moon flyby/impact rockets don't work. [10:24:01] Not enough dv, explode in atmosphere. [10:27:32] Action: darsie makes the rocket slower by adding 2 m tank. [10:36:44] That worked. [10:54:10] Oh, Eve, so beautiful, so deadly [10:54:36] darsie: uh, uncontrolled flights?

[11:23:44] anyone remember what height a satelite will start to degrade at? [11:23:53] irl? [11:24:01] 70 km for Kerbin. [11:25:16] nice thanks. irl is much more complicated is it not? [11:25:43] like they debate over what when space starts [11:25:44] The atmosphere fades away, there's solar wind and light pressure ... [11:25:57] ^ [11:25:58] which reminds me. I wanted to try the "Realistic Atmospheres" mod if it's still supported [11:26:40] Also orbits get yanked around by Earth being nonspherical. [11:26:55] And GEO sats by the moon(!) [11:26:56] sun synchronous orbits :) [11:30:26] Those are a clever use of nonspherical gravity. [11:33:04] Action: darsie lacks 119 m/s to impact the Moon. I doubt I could get that by flying better.

[11:45:01] Cut the outline of the PCB into the cardboard [11:45:04] I planned to solder that in the food oven, didnt want to poison everyone [11:45:12] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NS8Q9LUIKA8 sorta related, but not really [11:45:19] then align the stencil and make tape on one side, so you can flip it. (Like you did) [11:45:19] but then I got a dedicated oven [11:45:39] this way you don't have to tape the PCB to the cardboard [11:45:45] Mat2ch I put several layers of paper tape, holds the pcb in place [11:46:06] I guess you're doing this only for one PCB. :D [11:46:06] it slots in of sorts, kinda like cutting a pocket in the cardboard [11:46:14] I have 10 of them [11:46:19] might order more [11:46:33] If you have to do 10 or more then you want to have something where you don't have to tape the PCB in all the time ;) [11:46:43] well it isnt taped it [11:46:48] the tape is around it [11:47:16] Epi we had screen printing stuff where I worked before [11:47:34] a manual machine and an automatic one [13:38:26] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptop' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [13:52:37] new shepard launch in an hour [13:54:16] #KSPOfficial: mode change '+o UmbralRaptor' by ChanServ!ChanServ@services.esper.net [13:55:13] ah is this the launch that didnt happen last year?

[14:52:41] ooh, a New Poodle engine at Blue Origin [15:08:22] It still looks like a huge, uhm... like huge rocket [15:09:06] also feet? MPH? What is this? [15:10:59] link?

[17:48:56] Oh wait... I had an extra quotation mark :P [17:52:28] oh wait i forgot about the suborbital launch, did it go off? [17:53:44] there is a video, so it probably worked [17:56:06] the shape of the rocket remains funny [18:00:32] over 100 km at least they went into space :) [18:02:22] about 3 minutes of weightlessness [18:04:44] they could have added some window view camras in the capsule [18:08:15] Blue Origin? [18:08:21] yes [18:08:30] Didn't know they were launching. Nice [18:08:38] Higher than Virgin [18:08:45] (So far) [18:09:11] I wonder which method will be cheaper in the long term [18:09:22] this rocket seems to be simpler [18:09:24] and faster [18:09:33] not wasting a lot of time with a slow jet ascent [18:10:08] But Virgin use a hybrid rocket, which is much cheaper, simpler and easier to maintain [18:10:16] but i would like to land on a landing strip very softly instead of hitting the desert with parachutes [18:10:35] Hang on... I thought BO were doing propulsive landings [18:10:49] for the booster [18:10:56] but as a pasenger i dont care about that [18:11:02] i care about my bones [18:11:49] and it looks pretty much soyuz style hit the dirt from 16 mph to 0 in a split second [18:11:57] I haven't followed their development closely, but I thought it was single stage [18:11:59] that is like a car crash [18:12:17] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1E-3Bk2wpxo [18:12:18] YouTube - Replay of NS-10 Webcast [18:12:26] Can't watch video right now, sorry [18:12:36] anyway th capsule lands on 3 parachutes [18:12:51] So the capsule separates? Whatever for? [18:12:51] now imagine if only 2 deploy it is probably from 20 mph to 0 [18:13:07] for safer landing i guess [18:13:36] 16 mph to 0 without crumple zones is going to cause pretty nasty injuries [18:13:55] probably they can solve it the same way as soyuz does [18:14:15] but the people who landed in a soyuz never enjoy it [18:15:23] It's like a free fall from 2.5 metres/8ft [18:16:00] Basically worse than getting thrown off a big horse [18:16:55] Soyuz has retro thrusters that fire just before landing, right? [18:17:07] yes, and also the seats crumple [18:17:16] Ah [18:17:26] still really uncomfortable [18:17:55] So, again, Virgin's solution seems more practical for regular suborbital flights [18:18:18] except they are more complicated, since both are piloted airplanes [18:18:49] and getting into space for a few minutes of weightlessness takes forever [18:20:55] The design and construction is more complicated, but reusability seems pretty straightforward. Also, flight time doesn't seem to be a big concern. People have been waiting decades for their flight, so the longer the better, probably. [18:21:16] I mean, it's not a form of transport [18:21:23] It's all about the rid [18:21:24] e [18:34:09] didnt know about this kind of display, interesting https://hackaday.com/2019/01/17/sharpest-color-crt-display-is-monochrome-plus-a-trick/ [18:40:13] wonder what happened to that screen made of tiny mirrors someone was working on [18:40:35] i dont know about screen, but projectors use light processing [19:16:59] That was pretty cool, Althego [19:17:20] VanDisaster, wasn't that the Miracast laser projector? [19:17:58] was some years ago, I can't remember much about it... [19:18:35] Not sure about the name [19:19:20] https://www.economist.com/babbage/2011/10/25/pivoting-pixels [19:19:23] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/533692229693210656/537712951671390223/zgzrgerzgz.jpg [19:20:45] hehe putting them there with tweezers [19:20:59] what am I supposed to do [19:21:08] normally: byt the power of gr... vacuum [19:21:10] the tiny resistors are 0.6 by 0.3mm [19:21:54] Awesome, VanDisaster. [19:22:43] wait, you used 0201 resistors for manual placement? could have just chosen bigger ines [19:22:49] Power of vacuum? https://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/vacuum.png [19:23:16] I told my pcb designer to put some bigger ones next time [19:23:36] also he messed up the programming pins [19:23:52] lol no brainer, even 0402s are annoying even with machines, going smaller is just asking for pain [19:24:06] the silkscreen derped and it lacks mounting holes soit will require a re-design [19:24:38] prototype, happens [19:24:58] at least I got to play with my macro lens [19:33:42] what does new horizons do now? [19:33:48] is it still behind the sun? [19:44:40] https://theskylive.com/newhorizons-tracker [19:45:59] it is not downlinking now [19:46:44] oh wait there it is [19:46:49] somehow called nhpc [19:57:51] hehe https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWgaQgpQr_c [19:57:51] YouTube - Lego Wintergatan: Marble Machine (Marble Machine Cover) [19:57:53] quite new [21:26:36] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/533692229693210656/537744790456893460/tumblr_plq52yAF3d1r539hzo1_500.png [22:02:08] whoa [22:02:14] steel rocket was blown down [22:02:34] rip shini tube [22:09:01] ....
