Simple question, when I free the orientation of the claw, can I rotate it around it's longer axis freely.

Shouldn't be the ROUND-8 toroidal fuel tank more like a "cryogenic balloon" tank, then just "cryogenic".

Yeah, that's right, but it's not nearly that concentrated like in HLW. Coal ash is about as radioactiv as the waste, thats created at the Uranium mines, the tailings of these are compareable to lignite-ash, or even more dangerous. Appart from the time-machine-thingie, it sounds totally plausible.

Well, the Galilean Moons are also said to be in an 1:2:4 resonance, despite their longitude of conjunctions rotates with ~3°/d.

So everytime, 3 bodies are in a 1:2:4 resonance with a non-fixed longitude of conjunction, the orbital period of the third body T3 = 2T2/(3-T2/T1)

You mean Callisto? Not excactly. The Laplace resonance is nearly perfect, the libration around 3 of the 4 resonance angles are so narrow, you can say, that there NEVER is a triple conjunction. But the forth is rotating through all angles, which means, conjunction can occure anywhere on Ganymedes orbit. From Wikipedia: The longitudes of the Io–Europa and Europa–Ganymede conjunctions change with the same rate, making the triple conjunctions impossible. Is this the reason for my equation to work?

Uuuh, I had long and exhausting arguments about this topic. So here some facts: There are 300.000 tons of HLW worldwide, and each year we get 12.000 additional tons Deep geological repositories for current HLW must be save for at least 300.000 years (*) Current plans for disposal sites call for the waste being retrievable, so deep boreholes aren't considered Dumping the waste in the oceans can have unpredictable impact on the local (!) flora/fauna, and has been practiced in the North Sea It takes about 600.000 years for the fast-fission products of Pu239 to reach the same level of radiotoxicity of 300.000a old radioactive waste from current reactors It takes about 1.200.000 years for the fast-fission products of U233 to reach the same level of radiotoxicity of 300.000a old radioactive waste from current reactors Efficient fusion reactors aren't feasible with current technology, and even if we gain that in near future, it's very likely, it's way too expensive to be considered as a suitable power source (*) At least that's considered as "long enough" in Germany, even by the supporters of nuclear power plants The last two facts, I calculated myself, radiotoxicity is measured in Sv/kg. (Links: http://goo.gl/Wp85no http://goo.gl/pGILrz) So even if a deep borehole might be the safest option, all countries around the world producing this stuff, currently consider, that future generations might have a brilliant idea about what to do with that highly toxic waste.

The point, where the moons conjunct rotates in space. That does not influence the shape of the orbits in any way.

Since you are obvisouly not capable of looking up the correct values yourself, I do it for you know. T1 = 1.7691378 d T2 = 3.551181 d T3 = 7.154553 d A = T2/T1 = 2.00729474 B = T3/T2 = 2.014696801 2/(3-A) = 2.014696688 So is it coincidence or not. Maybe someone more qualified then SILLYchris can also answer?

The valueds I wrote here aren't the exact ones, I just wrote them from my memory, and I can't look them up right now. Just check them yourself on Wikipedia (A=~2.007)

It perfectly locks on my target spot, but then, in the mid of descent, it starts firing up instead of backwards ...

My MechJeb messes up every landing attempt on the Mun. It works fine until the half of the breaking burn, then it flips from retrograde to upwards and misses the target. I testet for a 10x10, 10x6, 20x7 and 7x7 [km, lower value above the target] orbit.

The equation does hold, and that is what struggles me. The error is about 10-7.

No, if you look to Wikipedia, the value isn't excactly 2 but 2.00069... for Io and Europa and 2.0014... for Europa and Ganymede.

That wasn't my question, I knew that. I'm asking for the B=2/(3-A) connection.

Since the longitude, where the conjunctions between Jupiter's inner 3 moons occure propagates in a retrograde orbit, the relation between the orbital period of Europa T2 and that of Io T1 is slightly greater than 2. But the relation between the orbital period of Ganymede T3 and that of Europa T2 is even bigger. After a bunch of random assumptions and calculations, I discovered, that the fractions T2/T1=A and T3/T2=B are in the following relation: 2/(3-A)=B Is this a happy coincidence or a condition for the resonance?

Some lighting-weirdness with Kerbins cities and Gilly:

BecausemB9 isnt "stockalike" and mostly broken.

Is this mod compatible with real fuels?

Well, you can add the module to any part you want, but it will break the part, so you can't use any of it's functions, TTNeverUnload included.

Is this mod compatible to the effects from Alternis, so the unlit side of bodies is still pitch black?

Definitely Kerbin, not as a whole, but have you ever been to the slopes of K2 at night with the clouds mod and the visuals from Alternis? Dark, steep cliffs wrapped in fog and utter darkness. But on the other hand, landing on the top of one of these mountains in sunshine looks pretty awesome.

Do we get flags for the sun? I want to build a solar space station and use the new flag option.

When I'm using RealFuels, does the mod recognize when I'm using non-cryogenic fuels or when a portion of the tank is filled with a non-cryognic fuel (oxidizer is on the top)?
