oh docking is underway
<Rolf>
on hold it seems
<Rolf>
its in holding positiom anyway
<JVFoxy>
lol.. whoops, careful, don't mix your miles and meters ;P
<packbart>
why is their Windows set to 1/1/2019?
<packbart>
.oO(license expired)
<Mat2ch>
Why is there even a windows on board?
<packbart>
I meant the control screen in the video a minute ago or so
<Mat2ch>
Hopefully it doesn't do a forced update :P
<JVFoxy>
date probably doesn't matter much.. its just acting as a monitor
<JVFoxy>
watching this brings back memories of some fo the earlier space missions..
<Rolf>
funny thing about space
<Rolf>
something might be 3 feet away or 100 miles away and much bigger
<Rolf>
"diffult to see the distance between..." of course.
<Althego>
heh the stream is intermittent, i have to refresh it to get it working again
<JVFoxy>
oh was reading about the draco engines.. not installed. They will do parachute only landings till engines are flight qualified. (according to wiki)
<JVFoxy>
someoen asked why they were covered up yesterday
<Mat2ch>
Althego: the youtube stream keeps on crashing for me, so I use mpv :P
<Althego>
i asked it

tries phys-warp to make Dragon move faster
ergZay has joined #KSPOfficial
<Mat2ch>
JVFoxy: but the Draco engines are important for the abort
Mod9000 has joined #KSPOfficial
<Mat2ch>
so on the next flight they have to be installed
<JVFoxy>
they'll do an abort test later.. not critical right now, no crew
<sandbox>
"Latest innovation in docking tech is copying Kerbal space program’s wobbly docking feature"
<Althego>
probably
<Mat2ch>
with a small difference: It's captured and doesn't wobble away :P
<JVFoxy>
hopefully the -gee thing isn't making reference to ripley's cat..

what are they waiting for?
<darsie>
pressurizing the dragon, analyzing its atmosphere
<darsie>
and stuff
<Althego>
astronauts must be the most patient people on earth... or rather in space
<Rolf>
they are also most impatent people thats off earth
<Althego>
catastrophic failure alarm?
<Althego>
nothing looks catastrophic at the moment
<JVFoxy>
alarm on which stream?
<JVFoxy>
was afk
<Althego>
i meant that they can only become astronauts if they are really patient. and if they are not patient in space that can lead to death. automatic selection
<Althego>
it was on nasa live, but probably on all
<packbart>
I just start KSP and a failure alarm goes off on the ISP
<packbart>
ISS I mean
<Althego>
better be on the iss than on my net :)
<JVFoxy>
ah.. hard line configuration tripped it
<JVFoxy>
may as well been /their/ ISP :P
<Althego>
hehe
<Althego>
no cause for alarm
<Mat2ch>
is really nobody complaining that the video is stretched?
<JVFoxy>
I hadn't noticed?
<Judge_Dedd>
What are we watching?
<Mat2ch>
the nasa live stream
<JVFoxy>
even though I got another stream up that has the same video going as well as planet view stream too
<pthag>
a simple trick to make ur ship look longer
<Judge_Dedd>
Livestream of what?
<Mat2ch>
people who stretch videos are keeping me up at night...!
<JVFoxy>
or the worse one: vertical video syndrome... :\
<Mat2ch>
Judge_Dedd: uhh, where have you been the last century? Crew Dragon at the ISS!
<Mat2ch>
:D
<Judge_Dedd>
Oh it's reached the ISS? Link?
<Judge_Dedd>
I saw the launch but I didn't know they'd livestream the docking
<JVFoxy>
ya docked about an hour ago.. they doing some checks before opening up
<JVFoxy>
heh.. if they had a screen for the other side, could maybe double as vanity mirror ;P
<Judge_Dedd>
A laptop, with a pull out second screen. <3
<Judge_Dedd>
Imagine if they had done one with a third screen on the left. I think I might have passed out
<JVFoxy>
some day... full 360 degree wrap around holo screen...
<JVFoxy>
or.. well maybe just in front, but made to look like its 360 as you turn. no point rendering gunk you don't look at unless you've a friend with you
<Judge_Dedd>
More likely that VR gets so good you just configure as many virtual screens as you want
<Judge_Dedd>
Imagine a laptop with no screen at all, just put the glasses on
<JVFoxy>
glasses thing sorta a thing already.. just not wildly used
<JVFoxy>
widely... not wildlely... or blah.. ok I've been up all night. stupid sleep routine busted badly
<Rolf>
it grips the ring outside so inside seal is firmly against each other
<JVFoxy>
looks like this flanges are just inside the pressure mating ring
<Rolf>
nice picture!
<Rolf>
yeah. you dont want puncurable stuff in inside for any reason :)

GlassYuri has joined #KSPOfficial
<Rolf>
crazy. wonder how they keep track.
<Judge_Dedd>
Rolf, two landscape monitors stacked vertically, three landscape, one portrait and yeah, now the operator isn't sitting there, you can see three smaller displays lower down
<Rolf>
indeed
<Rolf>
now is there any 10? lol
<Rolf>
oh hey mr. earth
<Rolf>
heh its awkward as heck putting on mask
<Rolf>
guys been trying for while
<Judge_Dedd>
So, er... seems it would make sense to just have air-quality equipment on the Dragon
<darsie>
hatch getting opened
<Althego>
somebody was happy
<Althego>
looks quite big and spacious
<Rolf>
wooot opening and entering
<Rolf>
or is it breaking and entering? lol
<JVFoxy>
no breaking in space... that would mean big problems
<Rolf>
yeah lol
<Rolf>
i wonder what they are testing
<Rolf>
im pretty sure some of it is gases
<Judge_Dedd>
That was cool
<Rolf>
lol showmanship of mr earth
<Judge_Dedd>
cyas
Judge_Dedd has quit [Quit: Uh oh...]
<Rolf>
looooting the ship
<packbart>
reading the manual
<Rolf>
rtfm yep
<Rolf>
read the flipping manual
<Mat2ch>
Oh, Judge_Dedd split. I saw it, while cooking and eating
<Mat2ch>
I'm still waiting for the OLED wall paper
<Mat2ch>
it was promised in 2005 we'd get some soon!
<Rolf>
Mat2ch: F745
<Rolf>
oops
<Rolf>
451F :)
<Mat2ch>
huh?
<Mat2ch>
Rolf: linkkkk please
<Rolf>
451 f is a book that have wall tvs :)
<Rolf>

Ah
<Mat2ch>
ok, so you really meant that book
<Mat2ch>
I never read it
<Rolf>
you dhoulf read it in least once
<Rolf>
same as 1984
<Mat2ch>
Uh, I just took a look at the launch schedule... what happend to the inflight abort test?
<Mat2ch>
I don't like books like Fahrenheit 451 and 1984. If I want to see horror, I watch the news.
<Rolf>
other one is handmaiden
<Mat2ch>
We already have so many of those survaillance systems already in place, I don't see the point in reading about them, when I already know where they are and how they work
<Rolf>
its not all about survaillence
<Rolf>
its lot more
<Mat2ch>
yes, how people deal with it, find their ways around it and everything. I'm from Germany, I learnt all about the DDR in school and I saw the wall fall on tv, which was truly amazing to see. I don't need to read about it...

hm.. quite the camera they using.. (in the stream)
<JVFoxy>
take'n pictures.. wonder if they post for public to see
<Scolar_Visari>
Mat2ch: I am, because SpaceX has made it pretty clear they're shooting for Spaceship and they've made no progress in advertising the Dragon 2 for markets beyond the ISS.
<Scolar_Visari>
Then the next issue is wondering if Starship will actually happen.
<Draconiator>
I think so. Eventually.
<Draconiator>
because SpaceX.
