    Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat Do you think it'll be added to PHL? Those are exotic for sure. And, so basically, the first planets we ever discovered.... are technically potentially habitable, given extreme conditions? Wow.
  2. Spaceception
    Ahh, okay, thanks for the heads up

    2nd stage is there, just not the payload/fairing... maybe they want to keep something under wraps for now? I don't know their reasoning. Or they just wanted to show the rocket is here and (nearly) ready. Plus, you know, HYYYPE.

    We've actually talked a few times over facebook, but the signal sucks, so it's really hard to talk more than a few minutes. I have been thinking of learning her language... I should ask sometime - probably not now though, for personal reasons on her end I can't explain. Yeah, we do that already we keep each other updated and stuff. Anyway. If something happens with us, I'll definitely come here and say something.

    :')

    Okay. Since we live in different countries, do you think I should wait? Maybe until sometime next year when we're older?

    Alright.. Part of me doesn't want to say anything either, because I don't want to make things really awkward between us. Especially since we're working on something right now, and I'm having fun with her doing it. Yeah, I don't want to come off as weird or creepy either.
  8. Spaceception
    Yeah, there's a lot trust between us. But I'm pretty nervous, and don't know if it's enough (Anxiety, yay). Countries. I mean, there's plenty of people who end up getting together despite being separated like that... but I don't know if it's too early, you know? Late teens.

    Oh boy, here I go. I don't know if I'll act on any advice you give me, because I feel like I'm in a pickle, but at least some idea of what to do will be nice. There's this girl I like, we're really good friends, and we talk a lot every day online. We even sent each other Christmas presents earlier last month. But I don't know how to say that I like her. Now here's the thing; we're long distance friends right now, and we're working on some stuff together, and I don't want to ruin it if it turns out she doesn't like me back the same way. I'm pretty sure we'd still be friends, but it's not 100%; She's also not into romantic stuff like books or movies, and it kind of carries over to her life. As you can imagine, the anxiety is high with me. If I do tell her, should I keep it short and sweet, or a bit longer? Or somewhere in between? Luckily, our interests are actually really similar, except I'm a bit more into sci-fi than she is, she's a bit more into fantasy than I am; but we write both genres, and we're fans of Marvel, DC, Harry Potter, the likes. Okay, I'm pressing reply.....

    The flight is gonna be fantastic. I cannot wait. Great pic! Did you make it? Or find it somewhere?

    Hey everyone!

    So.............. writing.

    I have some pretty good ideas for Infinitum, I think you'll like them :) And I think the storyline will be infinitely better honestly. I'll release a brief overview of the plot on the main thread before Christmas.

    My friend and I are busy with our Urban/Science fantasy novel Nathan Frost Exousia Project.
    And lemme tell you, it's probably the coolest thing I've ever worked on, Harry Potter? Heh, we're gonna blow it out of the water.

     

    I really really want to finish Infinitum and The Children Between Worlds, so I'll probably be doing those simultaneously while my friend and I are planning it out.

    But, er, I'm starting Calculus soon. Any tips please? I really suck at math :( Once it clicks, it's great! But it takes so. long. to get to that point. :/
    I don't need a step by step guide, just important rules, general stuff, and things to remember, etc

      I love math sooooo much. My simple rules are just treat it like a puzzle. It makes it infinitly more enjoyable.

       

      Oh, have you read Artemis, the new Andy Weir book? What did you think?

    2. Spaceception

      Spaceception

      Oh, no. But I want to soo bad. How is it?

      The book is pretty good but not as good as The Martian. There were a couple of loose ends and charecter development is not as good.

    20 returned boosters now - and a few of them flew more than once. https://twitter.com/SpaceX/status/941695796881190912
  13. Spaceception
    Gorgeous landing!
  14. Spaceception
    Thanks @sevenperforce@tater
  15. Spaceception
    Correct me if I'm wrong, but will this be landing on the landing pad,? Or is it the barge?
  16. Spaceception
    T-10 seconds !!! And we have liftoff!! Awesome launch, sooty looks great.
  17. Spaceception
    Watching now! Looks like they have the technical webcast again.

    According to the calculator here; the potentially habitable world K2-18b has a surface gravity of 14.9 m/s^2, or 1.52x the gravity of Earth. Not bad in all honesty; considering it's almost 2.3x the radius of Earth. But it's probably a super water-world. Could be fun for JWST to check out :)

  19. Spaceception
    Same. That would be great.
  20. Spaceception
    Ohhh, yes. If you or someone better at math/physics than me can explain this at some point on another thread, that would be awesome
  21. Spaceception
    Thanks Back on topic, I can't wait for the intergalactic travel episode in a couple weeks, sci-fi research
  22. Spaceception
    Hey, @DAL59, could you edit the title of this from "Isaic" to "Isaac"? The misspelled name is kinda bugging me.
  23. Spaceception
    True, but it would need to get beyond 25 km/s or it'll just end up trailing behind it. VASIMR seems promising. Aside from NERVA (And ion), it's the only advanced engine that's been tested, and additionally, could get us the thrust needed. Use large solar panels for initial acceleration, jettisoning them; and wait to catch up using an ion drive to slow to a stop next to it? Idk, that seems too complicated actually. It could also launch on a cargo BFS (Or, a Falcon heavy, if we go small), that may go faster, and carry a large enough payload for a spacecraft like that. But the timeframe is ridiculously tight.
  24. Spaceception
    That's his thing. It is tedious trying to find stuff though. But separating it better would be quote hard I think Thanks!
  25. Spaceception
    What the name of it? Is it on project rho?
