  1. So Quon'oS isn't a sandwich shop? Anyways, does this help any:
  2. Would a hydrogen telescope work on gas giants? I also installed and used the new Dev version without any issues.
  3. I found this site for making RC planes out of cardboard: http://www.feltondesignanddata.com/id18.html I thought you might find it useful.
  4. 3. Flight Testing: The first person to get their drone over the White House wins.
  5. Yes, if this mod could stave off craziness on long missions it would be great. If you wanted to keep it simple, maybe a basic part config like how CO2 is created and removed. As craziness builds up in the cabin, using Luxury items removes it. I was also thinking about pulsed plasma Teflon thrusters as an electrical item. It runs on a solid block of Teflon built into the thruster and an electrical arch. You don't need to add any tanks of propellents, but the Teflon does run out eventually. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsed_plasma_thruster
  6. The Outer Planets mod also changes Eeloo's position to a moon of Sarnus. If I install this mod would the other three moons and comet show up but Berdim wouldn't show or would it just mess up Outer Planets mod completely? Well if you want something that is challenging to get to, put it into a retrograde orbit around the sun at an altitude of 1,500,000,000 meters.
  7. I hope this doesn't sound rude, but this made me laugh. I just have a mental image of some poor technician slummed over his work station. Yes this happens with tidally lock bodies. You basically have to orbit the moon/planet until it does one complete orbit around it's parent body or keep manually changing your inclination until you have scanned the whole body. It can be done with one satellite, but bring extra fuel or time warp a hundred years or so until Plock does one full rotation.
  8. Are there scientist that do empirical studies on thing like this? Anyways I'd go with a nuclear pee steam engine.
  9. That's no asteroid..... It's a space station! Any chance outgassing could cause a crater that big?
  10. I had that problem with both Hale and Ovok, I tried approaching from numbers directions, but it always just impacted before getting to the SOI. Was just thinking I had too many mods and it messed something up.
  11. I keep thinking about the Wii and all those stories of people breaking their TVs. Now imagine someone playing a dungeon slash game in their house.......the chaos potential......
  12. I'm looking for these types of numbers unless Kopernius does it very differently? http://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Orbit#Reference_code
  13. Teenagers would leave their rooms and be forced to talk to their families........ The stock market would panic as usual, but without the internet to complete trades I'm not sure how bad it would get.
  14. Well the adult movie industry was a very big part of VHS recorders success, so if that industry adopts it, people will pay for the new tech.
  15. Thanks guys, I was thinking it would come down to knowing where to look, the Oort cloud is a big place to fully survey at high resolutions. I'm surprised they can't measure the Sun's wobble from Earth to confirm the number of known orbiting objects with any unexplained influences.
  16. If there was a Mars or Earth sized planet out in the Oort cloud covered in coal black dust and not giving off heat, what type of equipment could detect it?
  17. Japan also seems to try to work on things other nations are not focusing on very much. I think they look for areas where their efforts will get more unique science, so Mars may not be that appealing to them.
  18. They have even more than those, I have read about 12U and 27U as well: https://directory.eoportal.org/web/eoportal/satellite-missions/c-missions/cubesat-deployer
  19. Well NASA has worked with JAXA on a number of projects over the years and NASA has plans with ISRO for the NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission in 2020.
  20. I can see India and Japan working with Europe and the US.
  21. Yes, if nothing else to keep it from contaminating harder to find ground water.
  22. I'm not sure how to answer, as I think it will be a multi national effort to spread the costs around, unless you meant a probe.
