    Ok, I've processed this. @Parkaboy, you had better make damn sure you live up to the readers' expectations. You've delivered so far, but that's dangerous- people keep expecting your best work. In the words of a 6-year-old boy, "I find that my life is a lot easier the lower I keep everyone's expectations." Good luck, Parkaboy- and godspeed.

    No they don't, not if you're comparing 1:1 models. The idea is to give a comparison to a real life vehicle.
  3. Dman979
    So, what're the measurements?
  4. Dman979
    For reference, that's about half the height and radius of the Saturn V, and about 45% of the mass.

    I was the first in my chem class to discover that staying at a constant speed throughout your launch is a bad idea.

    Or there's the old "Open it in the VAB/SPH and look at the Engineer's Report," but I guess that isn't accurate enough. Now, how about the volume of that sucker?
  7. Dman979
    Well, why didn't we think of this earlier! Makes things a lot easier now.

    Yeah, but if you zoom in you can see that his foot is behind the back of the engine bell. I don't think that you're right, Jimbodiah.

    I use PTC Creo 3.0 It works fine for me, but for more advanced things, such as NACA airfoils, you might need one of the add ons.
  10. Dman979
    Yeah, that's the site.
  11. Dman979
    Wow. Really, really well done, Parkaboy. Give me a few moments to process this.

    No, you get Red Plushy Hat. @Kuzzter?
  13. Dman979
    Yes.

    Past 11 o'clock? Time to *clink*! ... oh, wait...

    Welcome, Dan!

    Great job! I did notice a typo in panel 1, page 2. Not sure if it's intentional or not. So, ready for the year to refuel this baby?
  17. Dman979
    Cool! We're watching at the same framerate as Kuzzter is!

    @Felbourn, have you checked out apollo17.org? It has the full mission transcripts, and all the photos, and all the videos, all in real time.
  19. Dman979
    Can we change this to the skype chat?
  20. Dman979
    @windows_x_seven? I remember him, too. He got banned, but IDK y. He was a nice guy, at least as I knew him.
  21. Dman979
    yes.
  22. Dman979
    no, it's an electrical principal I'm thinking of. Can't remember what it is, though.
  23. Dman979
    Gilly, by a lot.
  24. Dman979
    IIRC, Phones don't quite work in elevators, because there's a box effect which keeps radio waves from traveling. I think, I'm not sure- I read it somewhere.
  25. Dman979
    Not quite, but pretty damn close enough for Kerbfleet standards. Gilly, on the other hand, might have her orbit shaken a bit.
