Oh my, I spent the whole night tuning this minimalistic tourist to LKO rocket. Had to finish orbit with jetpack and fly perfect to have enough left to deorbit. http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot145.png

An earlier version started vertical but turning east was less exact. This one is slanted 2 deg east and I turn prograde at 129 m/s, but it's less efficient.

<Althego>
heh they moved the falcon launch inside worktime
<darsie>
what?
<Althego>
15:06
<Althego>
here at least
<darsie>
ah
<darsie>
starlink?
<Althego>
that launch date is moving since last friday
<Althego>
that
<darsie>
starlink
<Althego>
i am fed up with all these star* names
<Althego>
starliner, starship, starlink
<Althego>
i get it, psaceship was already taken
<Althego>
but no excuse for the others
<darsie>
astronaut
<darsie>
movie star
<Althego>
that too, i dont like that
<Althego>
that is different
<Althego>
it is already ina different meaning
<Althego>
but none of theprevious 4 go to any star
<Althego>
not even to the sun
<darsie>
I guess dv to the sun is higher than to another star.

Thanks

50000 people waiting :D
<Mat2ch>
For something we've seen many times now. And it's still fascinating

<packbart>
I'm just in it for the chance of Kaboom
<Deddly>
I've seen very few live
<packbart>
true. but otherwise, SpaceX routine launches get a little boring over time ;)
<packbart>
and it's just yet another starlink launch
<packbart>
I don't care much for that project. ymmv
<Deddly>
I'm quite interested in seeing how that works out. Satellite internet would be very interesting for those who are often on the move
<packbart>
I'm more for terrestrial mobile networks
<Deddly>
And, of course, for the huge area of the world that doesn't have reliable access
<Deddly>
Ships, planes, developing countries...
<packbart>
they won't have starlink access, either
<Deddly>
No reason why not
<Deddly>
Perhaps not planes, but ships should have no trouble accessing the network, if it is open to them
<packbart>
I was thinking of the "developing countries". True, ships and planes already have sat uplinks today, only the latencies would decrease
<packbart>
but, anyway, let's see how it plays out
<Mat2ch>
The devel countries will have access to it and use it
<Mat2ch>
most people there don't have a computer, but a smartphone
<Althego>
starlink music on
<Mat2ch>
oh, I love here voice. So soothing
<Deddly>
Aaw no live views from drone ship
<Mat2ch>
And Jessica's voice is not my favorite...

1 million lb = 450,000 kg of propellant

<Mat2ch>
means 100t for the whole rocket...
<Deddly>
...and this bit here is why Starlink is interesting to me
<Mat2ch>
yes, I can finally move into a log cabin somewhere very far away from other humans and still rant on the internet!
<Mat2ch>
;)
<Deddly>
Hehe
<Deddly>
Bah, they're using autopilot mods. Cheaters
<Mat2ch>
:D
<Mat2ch>
I want autopilot mode built into KSP2 :P
<Althego>
t-2 min
<Flayer>
is there a light-weight autopilot mod?
<Deddly>
I think it would make a lot of sense in some ways, especially as they have said they are going to make it possible to leave things like ion thrusters running for ages whilst you're doing something else.
<Deddly>
I only know about Mech Jeb and kOS, Flayer
<Deddly>
Here we go, T-10
<Deddly>
That shockwave was sweeeet
<Althego>
shockwave and starscream :)
<Mat2ch>
Uh, that looked hard.
<Deddly>
What did, yeah
<Deddly>
That*
<Deddly>
Looks windy out there, too
<Mat2ch>
But landing on sea is hard, because a ship can move a meter up and down like it's nothing
<Deddly>
True
<Mat2ch>
Just rewatched it at 0.25 speed
<Mat2ch>
looks like the engine was cut off a bit early
<Mat2ch>
but nothing the landing legs can't take
<Deddly>
Oh interesting
<Mat2ch>
we will see if it flies again ;)
<Deddly>
Looking at the replay in normal speed, you can see that the ship was on the way down just as the rocket landed
<Mat2ch>
hard to see. But just before the landing the barge was lifted up, which might sugggest it went down with the rocket
