Two with gravity, at the opposite ends of the rope. No problem. Just make the bottom side open, and the space vacuum helps you. Since Mercury flights? Unlikely. Russians just liquid on the bus wheel before the flight. 'Muricans don't, so have to suffer. Even if you are not very happy with your crew comrades, it's still not a reason to call them so.

Granted. You succeeded and now you want a text editor to list a hundred of mods conflicting in your KSP. I wish, the cooler fans were self-cleaning.

Why are rocket engines so complex?
kerbiloid replied to king of nowhere's topic in Science & Spaceflight
As KSP descriptions clearly explain, they are made of parts found by the side of the road. So, full of random junk left from bikes, old fridges, microwave ovens, truck mufflers.... To hide this fact, they draw various clever schemes. -

totm aug 2023 What funny/interesting thing happened in your life today?
kerbiloid replied to Ultimate Steve's topic in The Lounge
As it was told earlier, stirring tea in a cup and watching the whirl makes to think about our Galaxy, to start searching our Solar System there. On the other hand, watching the bathtub sink makes feeling sad on thinking about the Great Attractor, where all our galaxies are moving to. But recently a quantum physics joined the game, as I found a couple of entangled strings on the edge of the matter, and disentangled them, restoring their original dimensions. Feeling universal makes feeling so stramge... -

Yes. In budget. Are the Large Hadrons bigger that a banana? -

Optical measurements of the test launches. It's a rocket. They have it. They have civilian applications, too. -

At least, yet nobody posted the destroyer. It would be expectable from the SFX generation. -

The unplanned test of the ISS attitude control systems has taken place not due to Soyuz failure, but due to the on-ground systems malfunction. https://www-interfax-ru.translate.goog/world/797660?_x_tr_sl=ru&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=ru&_x_tr_pto=nui They think, it's the unborn souls of LOP-G and ROSS are trying to break into the real world and finally get made. -

Granted. Here is the key. Be careful when parking it, as the owner would be unhappy if it gets scratched. I wish for a triangular triangulation of the triangles..

The Wardenclyffe Tower was 187 ft (57 m) high. 50 m... Hmm... Seems, we see what @ARS is doing there... But for a Global Tesla Power Network the oceans should be taken into account. Either the width, or the bypass route. Drake Passage is 800 km wide. Other gaps look narrower. So, probably at least 400 km visibility distance is required. 4002 / (2 * 6371) ~= 12.5 km. The rocks can be just ~10 km high on the Earth. So, it should be from steel. Such towers can also directly connect Iceland and Europe. A chain of 25 is to connect the poles. Also 25 km is enough high to let the air drag be negligible. So, these can be launchtowers.
