<pedantic>Not orbiting a star doesn't mean its "stationary". Everything in the galaxy is orbiting around the galactic centre and even extra-galactic rogues are still moving (and constantly being accelerated by gravity).</pedantic>

The explicit context of the comment we were quoting was "stationary planets" vs "planet orbiting another body", not my fault if the original was a gross misuse of the term "stationary".

Stationary planets aren't actually very common, you know...

In this context that doesn't seem to be true. "Rogues" are looking very common, quite a bit more common than planets that actually do orbit stars.

Not that that has anything to do with KSP...

Kerbal Engineer, don't leave the pad without it.

[Miranda. My new favourite solar system body?]

if we're going down the route of "the only correct pronunciation is the Latin one"

I think this route is more of a "between two perfectly reasonable pronunciations the one which more closely derives from the word's Latin (actually latinised Greek) origin might be preferable, all else being equal." Of course in the case of Uranus all else is not equal and avoiding the tiresome sniggers is reason enough, all by itself, to go down the anglicisation of the latinisation of the Greek "Ouranos" route. Shame really, such a pretty planet...

[Miranda. My new favourite solar system body?]

Few years ago I learned that the dictionaries started adopting "nucular". I wanted to shoot something.

Dictionaries are descriptive, not prescriptive. They (usually) don't answer the question of correct usage, just of popular usage. So, in the sphere of correct pronunciation, dictionaries are i-rev-uh-lent. If that makes you un-cumf-ter-bull then I can't wait until they start listing there, they're and their as synonyms and we sea yore reaction to that!

[Displaying node interception data]

Ah well, thanks for the info.

[Displaying node interception data]

When setting up a maneuver node for interception if I mouse-over the interception markers on the map time to intercept and separation at intercept are displayed. Is there any way to have that information stay visible so I don't have to tweak, mouse-over, tweak, mouse-over, tweak...

I guess the same question applies to the apoapsis and periapsis node information, any way to make that stay visible when editing maneuver nodes?
