    Favorite: A warm room with no one around me, with the only light coming from a dim lamp and KSP. Least favorite: Anything below 9-8 degrees C.
  2. Spaceception
    People will flip their excrements if that happens.
  3. Spaceception
    Okay.
  4. Spaceception
    Oh, how many are there anyway? Is really 20 like @fredinno says?
  5. Spaceception
    Oh. Well, they're saying it's 1.5 Earths, this study says it's 10 Earths. And it turns out I read it, well then:/
  6. Spaceception
    Super-Earth or Mini Neptune. Also, what's "YANPT"?
  7. Spaceception
    This was pretty recent. And I didn't think to search :/ I just looked through 7 pages on the search bar, and I haven't seen anything that says there was a "9 planet" thread.

    Caltech researchers may have found a ninth planet (Which may be a Super-Earth): http://www.caltech.edu/news/caltech-researchers-find-evidence-real-ninth-planet-49523 http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2016/01/150119-new-ninth-planet-solar-system-space

    Update!! Pale Red Dot ‏@Pale_red_dot 6h6 hours ago Second spectrum #PaleRedDot with HARPS @eso. signal-to-noise at 650nm: 96.5 (Yesterday: 65.3) Much better tonight !! Is Proxima really attached to Alpha Centauri? http://www.centauri-dreams.org/?p=34851

    I thought it was going to enter in a couple million years, does thins mean we'll get martian rings sooner? Because that would be cool.

    I'm reviving this thread! Project Nimrod: How would you design such a (Interstellar) mission? Getting together several hundred Physicists, Astronomers, Biologists, Chemists, Mathematicians, Computer scientists, Nuclear engineers/Physicists, Aerospace engineers, Aeronautical engineers, Mechanical engineers, and Electrical engineers, to figure out how long/hard it'd be, them implementing it. Where would you go? Wolf 1061 c, a potentially habitable exoplanet 13.8 ly away How big would the crew be? 1,000 people between the ages of 25-29 How do you solve the problem of ridiculous journey times (without using Interstellar's wormhole macguffin)? MEDUSA: 13% speed of light, ~90 year trip Would it even be possible? Yes Would the world get behind such a mission or ignore it? It's that or die.

    Not the last part, but yeah, I'd like to screw around with stuff like Ion engines and Nuclear engines and RTGs for a while.

    Well... It's not made of loose rock, and seeing as the moon would be made mostly of Silicates, Iron, and Metal, it should survive for a pretty good amount of time just inside of the Roche limit. I updated it regardless. Thanks

    Hey! The Demo is only thing I can play!
  15. Spaceception
    Could you put a smaller engine or longer landing legs in the Demo please? Because that's the only version I can play. Cheers!

    My first rover! http://imgur.com/a/uXoHC In the first picture, You see a normal looking rocket... then look at the Navball Second picture, Notice anything new on the rocket? Human ingenuity! Third: Approaching, Approaching... Forth: That explosion was caused by the torque of the rover and Munar gees, not me failing to land. Fifth: Ooooh, a survivor!

    This should work, read the above for explanations.: http://imgur.com/a/2mEHD
  18. Spaceception
    Oh, I guess I'm making a imgur account then!

    (I did this stuff yesterday, except the first one/ second ones, but I couldn't put it up) This is what my LKO looks like (That jumble of orbits are all Satellites): And LMO: My Mun/Minmus rocket: I landed/Stranded Jeb on the Mun: Mun lander: Minmus lander:

    first spectrum of Proxima taken:D https://palereddot.org/first-spectrum-with-harps-live-from-la-silla/

    I'm pretty sure it's plasma.

    Update!! Pale red dot has begun it's planet search! Very good weather conditions. Check out where the ESO telescopes are pointing: http://www.ls.eso.org/lasilla/dimm/lasc/

    Crisplance I have a moon idea: Anemoi : .14 Earths mass This is the outermost moon around the Ice giant, with a highly tilted orbit (34 degree tilt) and a thin atm (.7 atm), the moon is comprised of mostly ice, making it's appearance dirty white, due to the many impact craters, and has a weak magnetic field about 13% of Earths, It also is known to have an underwater ocean, however, it's not known whether it has life for two reasons, the first is that there is a very low amount of organics on the moon, and the second, is that the crust is 50km thick and comprised of water/rock making drilling difficult. Finally, it has many active volcanoes, pumping large amounts of Carbon dioxide/Methane making the moon -159 c. .4g What do you think?

    Here's a great quote: " The universe is probably littered with the one-planet graves of cultures which made the sensible economic decision that there's no good reason to go into space - each discovered, studied, and remembered by the ones who made the irrational decision." - Randall Munroe
