1/10 So, I'm a human, as I have watched this movie. Several times. And I like it.

Granted. You launch a magnetic accelerator ins tead of the upper stage. I wish the rockets were fueling by the air drag.

One sentence you could say to annoy an entire fan base?

Who is Spock? That freak with fake brows painted on the face while he was asleep, the hairdo detecting his pathetically bad taste, and the theatric gesture of the hand to show his complicated nature? -
totm dec 2019 Russian Launch and Mission Thread
kerbiloid replied to tater's topic in Science & Spaceflight
While the Soviet hi-tech was sending advanced electronic robots, NASA had to be catching up the advanced Soviet electronics and sending crews to keep the ships working. Also it's much cheaper to not fly to Mars by Mir than not fly there by SLS or Starship. *** It would look like a company bankruptcy on the 3d design phase of the project. -
OK, 1.12.2. And what about 1.12.3?

Because it's flying. Is it? P.S. And that's how the destructable/transformable landscape could be implemented in KSP without voxels -
The megathread is a 106thread. They killed it from fear of a probable AI birth in the primordial chaos of repeatable chunks of nonsense. As this bodyless monster would be organically equipped with rocket design, heavy crane, and naive style art capabilities, this frightened them with unpredictable consequences.

A typical Chernobyl-class fission reactor of 3 GW of heat power generates just 1 GW of electric power. Say, we put it in orbit. We should cool it and radiate 2 GW of waste power (uniformly, not directed). PowerPerArea, W/m2 = 5.67*10-8 T4. ISS: power 120 kW, radiators: 14 panels 6 x 10 ft = 14 * 6 * 10 *0.30482 ~=78 m2. 78 * (2*109 / 120 000) ~= 1.3*106 m2 ~= 1.2 x 1.1 km

1. To make you suffer without KSP-2 and buy it asap. 2. To create a rational reason why KSP engines are so heavy relative to their thrust. And what reason can be better than a meter-wide thick ring of metal welded to the nozzle? 3. A ballast to keep the rocket vertical.

Do you want to say that this duck has died in vain just because you don't like to eat dead ducks? Waiter! Is it a cockatrice soup? It not just watches unfriendly, but also follows me with its glance.

Banned because it's English Ц (if they had added it), it's okay with forum rules.

When RAM is over.

Banned because they should just add a single letter for that, like Ц.

They should also check the sensors position, to ensure they are not overturned. The precedents have taken place... P.S. And wind the clock, as originally they did it two weeks ago. P.S.2. I hope, the countries with left-side road traffic, still have the clockwise screws? I mean, maybe some guest star had turned them in opposite direction.

I counted only human-sized ones. Change's rover is 140 kg heavy, while Lunokhods and other payload of E-8-5 are at least 750+ kg (but probably up to 1.2 t), LEM ascent stage was 4.6 t heavy. E-8-5 is somewhat like an equivalent of the light Gemini lander. Risky, but possible So, LEM and E-8-5 were able to deliver a human or two to the surface and back, while Chang'e can only to the surface. The number of tested landings also matters. (And in case of E-8-5 flights, as it's multifunctional: with legs - lander, with no legs - heavy orbiter, Luna-22 and others).

For Questions That Don't Merit Their Own Thread
kerbiloid replied to Skyler4856's topic in Science & Spaceflight
Probably it doesn't, unless it uses the rotation to seek the aim, like a anti-tank bomblet with dynamically created penetrator.
