<Althego> not that you cant set that up on any distro
<Rolf> good question! I checked site in tor and seems nothing special
<Rolf> used tor in case theres some super awful shot at that site.
<Althego> hehe
<Althego> i just clicked it
<Althego> hah something is on the stream
<Althego> these people really made a trailer for a spaceship :)

<Althego> 48 minutes until launch
<Althego> but why do they put the engineers as commentator?
<Althego> they have been doing that for a while
<Althego> i think the superdraco engines are covered
<Althego> ther is nothing but metal there
<Draconiator> https://i.gyazo.com/ef8cc63bdb13eb5b97b886382f32bcfa.png - Someone told me my computer specs are decent even today. (First line of Graphics is my elcheapo backup monitor I'm using until my new one gets here, and I have a DVD drive but I use it as an external these days.)
<Althego> what, humans cannot be exposed to the vacuum of space? first time i hear about this. i demand my money back for this body
<Althego> eheh 45 nm athlon 2
<Draconiator> My other monitor failed with the most awful smell I ever smelled.
<Althego> the most spectacular monitor failure i have seen was because of an incorrectly wired 400 v connector, the fuse inside the crt monitor blew up with a bright flash
<Althego> surprisingly everything worked after replacing the fuse

<Althego> just who came up with the idea to call the test dummy ripley
<KwirkyJ> My thought about the "armless docking" thing: Finally, more Kerbal-like!
<Althego> actually that is the normal method
<KwirkyJ> then the video lied
<Althego> no
<KwirkyJ> (I have been way out of the space loop for a couple years)
<Althego> but the dragon is the exception
<Althego> the shuttle, the soyuz and the progress ships dock without tha arm
<KwirkyJ> gotcha
<Rolf> 17miiiiiiiin
<JVFoxy> oh.. showed up on my suggested videos list
<Althego> although lately the dragon, cygnus and the japanese kounotori do not have the docking feature

<Epi> comparatively o
<Epi> ah well, that was not a link. Ah the stream is answering the question I was just about to ask
<Mat2ch> Uhm uhm
<Mat2ch> 720p stream? Waaaaaaaat
<Althego> i never get what the countdown net is
<Althego> the other stream
<JVFoxy> nice they reviving the ol' launch pad A again
<Epi> I did'nt think they would be putting people in it, exciting
<Epi> or are they not?
<JVFoxy> interesting design on teh suit helmet
<Althego> no people
<Althego> dummy called ripley :)
<KwirkyJ> not this launch, anyway
<Epi> ah good, i was worried lol
<JVFoxy> ya uncrewed.. have to, its testing
<Althego> but why are the superdraco engines covered?
<Mat2ch> JVFoxy: they don't have a fully pressurized suit, like all the others, so the suit looks totally different
<JVFoxy> 100-200lbs cargo only right now I think?
<Althego> it is an eva suit
<Althego> er
<Althego> iva
<Althego> so it can be pressurized
<Althego> that is its purpose
<JVFoxy> spaceshuttle had inside suits too.. ya
<Draconiator> This is basically a tiny version of what they're really planning.
<JVFoxy> superdraco are the ones on the pod right?
<KwirkyJ> Crew Dragon, afaik
<JVFoxy> covered probably for protection
<JVFoxy> they used for the re-entry burn and last second retro on touchdown?
darsie has joined #KSPOfficial
<Rolf> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21X5lGlDOfg better one if want captions.
<Althego> but the image is delayed :)
<Althego> those engines should be able to survive rentry
<Althego> so why cover them
<Althego> and the covers look like they are not removable
<Althego> is that access corridor sloped?
<Althego> this curved progress meter is new
<Althego> actually annyoing
<Rolf> know whats funny? captioning blocks it. I can move it but..
Wetmelon has joined #KSPOfficial
<KwirkyJ> aaand my connection tanks? even at 144p it's playing maybe half-time, and it was solid at 480 for a good half-hour. bleh

<Draconiator> What is all that smoke/steam coming off the rocket before launch?
<Rolf> Draconiator: supercold air
<mrBlaQ> offgassing of supercooled lox
<mrBlaQ> and yeah just air condensing around the body for sure
<Althego> alo probably condensed water vapor from the air, because of cold
<JVFoxy> stupid super cold.. heh
<Draconiator> ah
<JVFoxy> this rocket too cool for you
<Althego> hehe
<Rolf> too cool for life. lol
<Althego> sooon it will be hot
<Rolf> too hot for life lol
<JVFoxy> hmm.. that crew arm though
<Althego> so hard to get into space
<Althego> and it could be woorse, if we lived on a super earth
<Rolf> Althego: what we need is better way to get to space
<mrBlaQ> OWOHO

<mrBlaQ> really riveting view on that 1st stage now
<Rolf> yep
<mrBlaQ> Althego: no, it's landing on le barge
<KwirkyJ> (I can see it again! aww, even missed meco)
<Althego> on the barge
<Althego> close to the shore
<Althego> not on landing zone
<KwirkyJ> the barge with a fun name, iirc
<mrBlaQ> really? huh
<Rolf> KwirkyJ: you can go bckwards on live show on yt
<mrBlaQ> that's different
<Althego> this is because of human spaceflight margin requirements
<Rolf> so can catch up on missing
<Althego> they could come back to the landing zone too
<mrBlaQ> are there protective covers over the solar panels on the trunk?
<Althego> lol that ittle earth
<KwirkyJ> will the main stage landing be streamed, or not this time?
<Althego> unless it crashes, probably :)
<Rolf> Althego: yeah gravity indictor I guess
<JVFoxy> dragon doesn't have a control panel.. or just not installed on demo model?
<Althego> there is a solar panel covering the trunk
<Althego> not extendable
<mrBlaQ> yep I know. I was thinking there was maybe a cover over it for launch

<Althego> no image
<JVFoxy> panel top left?
<Althego> bu they see it
<Althego> yes moved a little bit off center after landing
<KwirkyJ> and she landed! "Stage One down," but Stage One still up!
<Rolf> probably cutoff to avoid crash video lolbut success okay start again? ;)
<JVFoxy> 'of course I still love you'... uff long enough name for bardge ;P
<Althego> they always do that
<Althego> annoying a...
<Draconiator> lol
<KwirkyJ> JVFoxy: could be worse
<Althego> that is why i said covered, unless it crashes
<Rolf> could be symbol that cannot be spoken ;)
<Draconiator> At this point a first stage landing by them is routine.
<Althego> and it should be
<KwirkyJ> but still so cool!
<mrBlaQ> where'd video from dragon goooo
<KwirkyJ> NASA demands full screen?
<Draconiator> I'll be watching the first BFR launch, when it happens.
<Draconiator> that'll be exciting.

<JVFoxy> Fluburtur heh mock radial engine, and a battery pack that masquerades as a bomb. ;)
<Fluburtur> I was thinking about making a proper holder but just rubberbands also work
<JVFoxy> it me or does the wing seem a bit twisted/warped?
<Althego> the top wing
<Fluburtur> this thing sat in a shed for several decades
<JVFoxy> ya... though I'm aware of things designers do to counter prop torqur and wash... mostly with the rudder having a small tab that pushes to one side
<JVFoxy> ah.. sit'n idle so long, that would do a few things
<JVFoxy> although.. how long? Looks like 3d printed wheels.
<Fluburtur> the 3d printed parts are new
<Fluburtur> the whole front end and wheels are made by me
<JVFoxy> now I've gotta wonder... I have full scale plans for a twin engine balsa plane.. wonder if doing it as a 3d printed plane is viable
<Fluburtur> different technologies
<Rolf> people did make em
<Rolf> but its bit heavier from what I understand, so need quite good engines?
<Fluburtur> wouldnt be the most efficient, however you could print the more complex parts of it
<JVFoxy> plans was originally from a guy that designed things back when brushed motors were a thing
<Fluburtur> old balsa planes had little nitro engines and fuel tanks so they were quite heavier than modern electric stuff
<Fluburtur> putting modern stuff in old airframe is nice because back then they had heavy not powerful stuff
<JVFoxy> ah.. plans I have were electric, not gas. Originaly from days of brushed motors and nicad batteries
<Fluburtur> yeah that would work too
<JVFoxy> just poked Ivan Pettigrew's website where I got the plans originally. Seems he's now got a place to produce parts?

<JVFoxy> you using remote tech I take it?
<darsie> Or, the antenna is on the fuel tank, pointing up, with the Klaw on it.
<darsie> yep
<darsie> It's like taking photos with the lens cover on.
<JVFoxy> I forgot... dish direction sensitive in RT?
<darsie> no
<darsie> but irl
<darsie> But you have to "point" dishes.
<JVFoxy> I know you do have to set your targets..
<darsie> Just by specifying where you point them.
<JVFoxy> could put on side, counter balance it. put RCS in 3 way symmetry give yourself a little extra space
<darsie> I had it pointing sideways before, remember? :)
<JVFoxy> with the pencil structure.. ya
<darsie> yep
<JVFoxy> I was thinking more on side of thank
<JVFoxy> *tank
<darsie> I think that'll be fine.
<darsie> That would increase my fairing size.
<darsie> With possibly dramatic drag increase.
<darsie> 3 way RCS sucks.
<JVFoxy> fuel allowances really that tight?
<darsie> Ah, I'm sure I could get it up with the appropriate engines, but I like to optimize.
<darsie> I've had rockets that would stop accelerating completely when approaching the sound barrier.
<JVFoxy> ugh... I built a docking target, kind of Agena styled like. 4way rcs at scent, everything perfectly symmetrical, stupid thing still wanted to roll when yawing pitching. didn't matter which way you went, wanted to keep rolling more in jsut one direciton
<darsie> hmm
<JVFoxy> my 4 way rcs was at center of mass I meant
<JVFoxy> so instead...
<JVFoxy> 4 of the 4 ways at the bottom end, 4 at of the linear at the front
<JVFoxy> think some forces get a little weird when you have things too close
<JVFoxy> sound barrier, how close to the ground are you when you get near it?
<JVFoxy> You might be 'slamming the wall' while still quite low down
<darsie> idr
<darsie> not outrageously low, IMHO.
<JVFoxy> you using RO?
pthag has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<darsie> yep
<JVFoxy> might wanna watch your dynamic pressure.. you could be accelerating too hard.
<darsie> How?
<JVFoxy> 2-3g is probably good enough.. any more, you might be hitting max-q down too low.
<darsie> F12?
<darsie> Nah, was either 2 or 3 g, no more.
<darsie> Ahh, and it didn't happen always. I guess a bug.
<JVFoxy> should be ok? Even shuttle has to throttle down a little so it doesn't go over 3g during part of its ascent
<JVFoxy> when I launch in stock.. I watch my acceleration, and the little air streaks on the craft. Dynamic pressure goes up too high, see more of the air flow effects and acceleration slows down. If you have engineer redux, there are a few indicators, one being the d-pressure, another is something to do with pressure efficiency
<darsie> ok

<JVFoxy> ah ya.. atmos-efficiency.. basically tells you if you pushing too hard through the air for the particular pressure you are flying through
<JVFoxy> looking at the mod... had me realize I had an idea for one myself but now forgot what it was... something small
