Fluke Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 This is the second time now where there is a part with a red green and "unlit?" lights? Do we know what they are or have thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely gives the feeling of a massive piece of metal being moved. What stands out to me about the sounds we've heard so far (namely this and the recent landing leg video) is they they sound like what you'd hear from inside the craft while in space. While I don't expect this to be entirely consistent (for instance you'll probably hear these sounds even if you're controlling a separate craft nearby), I really appreciate the impression it gives that we're only hearing the sounds that are being conducted through the craft itself, rather than through the vacuum of space. 12 minutes ago, Fluke said: This is the second time now where there is a part with a red green and "unlit?" lights?

GoldForest Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 (edited) Is that a cube sat sized solar panel to the bottom right during the module deployment process on the reusable rocket? Edited January 27, 2023 by GoldForest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In terms of functionality (reusable fairings) it for sure is the RocketLab approach/design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoldForest Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 (edited) So, some fun and interesting stuff I noticed about the chalkboard in the beginning of the video: 1) The logo in the top left is the same as the KSP logo, but the smoke trail is a film reel. 2) The left equation is the equation for drag and the upper equation is the equation for gravity 3) Said gravity equation is wrong, using a J instead of a G 4) (And this one might not have any significance at all, just something I noticed.) Kerbin is tilted. Like, 10 to 15 degrees. Both to the right and away from us. Edited January 27, 2023 by GoldForest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use whatever variables you want technically as long as everything is defined. EDIT: In this case though I think the equation was supposed to represent impulse, although it would need a time interval for that. I can't tell what those circled things are.

Just now, xXIndestructibleEVAXx said: Not only is that amazing, that also looks like 5m to me! It is 5 meters. The module is 3.75m. You can tell because it's wider than the 2.5m cupola.

You can see the size of the spherical tank in this image curtacy of @Pthigrivi The gold tank is 5 meters confirmed as the command pod and strut structure are confirmed to be 3.75m. With the gold tank being 5, that can only mean that the sphere is 7.5 or 8.75. Possibly even 10 meters.

obney kerman Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Oh that cargo bay is BEAUTIFUL! I can already picture the semi-reusable launch vehicles I can make with that. And I always love a good look at 5 meter parts! 47 minutes ago, GoldForest said: The giant 7.5/8.75 spherical tank in the Duna flyby video, which was confirmed will be in game at launch of EA on the 24th of February. I feel like that tank is kind of in a class of its own, since it's not a cylinder. I guess based on that image, it'll have nodes in the top and bottom for 3.75m parts, though?

Ah, I was thinking specifically in terms of attachment point size; the spherical tank looks like it has 2.5m attachment points to me. The spherical tank is certainly quite large, looks about 10m in diameter to me, but I doubt we'll see any cylindrical parts larger than 5m at EA launch. Would love to be wrong though! Bigger is always better. Sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
