<darsie> Are some Eggs transient? I detected one from orbit, but can't find it on the ground.
Copper has joined #KSPOfficial
<Althego> eggs?
<darsie> Easter eggs
<darsie> Or is it the levitating rock?
<darsie> I found like 14 EEs on Kerbin. Is that too much?
<Althego> there is one that spawns randomly, the green monolith
<Althego> but even that is fixed position in one game, just set to a random position at new game start

<Mat2ch> time for lunch!
<Althego> launch is tomorrow :)
<kmath> YouTube - Expedition 63 Launch to the International Space Station
<Mat2ch> But but but, that's not spacex
<Mat2ch> I wonder why ESA doesn't launch crewed soyuz from Kourou
<Althego> probably administrative reason: the russians dont give it to them
<Althego> only for the unmanned missions
<Althego> actually esa writes they are open to the idea of manned launches, carefully avoiding the reason why it never happened
<Mat2ch> well
<Mat2ch> ESA has so much money, but just like the NASA they're stuck in bureaucracy and infighting
<Mat2ch> after F9s success they still decided to build a throwaway rocket
<Mat2ch> Oh, and what kind of people make those decisions? Yeah, babyboomers who grew up in a throw away culture... It hurts to watch
<Mat2ch> I mean, Merlin 1D and Vulcain 2 have similar thrust. So why not just take 9 of them and just plainly copy the F9? I don't get it.
<Mat2ch> and the add space rider to the mix as reusable upper stage
<Mat2ch> I will never get why people are so short sighted to see the obvious
<Azander> thw "why" is easy. They have been taught to.
<Azander> The "expenable" rocket also means jobs going to their companies that put the elected people in charge
<darsie> This was a tough to find easter egg: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot166.png

<Mat2ch> Azander: so Airbus SE is the reason then...
<Mat2ch> darsie: you need a helicopter ;)
<darsie> Mat2ch: I can parachute out and fly the plane back with a pod.
<darsie> but now I can't land the plane. I thought I coudl before.
<darsie> Always crashes the nose.
<Mat2ch> Helicopters!

<Althego> things i want to know: how long is one kellicam in si units
<snow> google suggest it's about 2km
<snow> so given a bit of a rounding error, it's just a klingon nautical mile
<Althego> hehe 1 martian nautical mile is almost a km
<packbart> Beware of the Martian Navy
<Althego> and the matian pirates
<Althego> no, not matt damon
<packbart> Arrr, earthlubbers
<Althego> anyway i calculated the martian nautical mile to be 986 m
<lordcirth> Is the nautical mile relative to lat and long?
<lordcirth> So a smaller planet has a smaller mile?
<Althego> one arc minute of latitude with the average radius
<raptop> A natical mile is defined as 1852 m
<Althego> on earth
<raptop> No, it's defined in terms of the meter now
<Althego> that is why i said martian nautical mile
<Althego> yes it is defined as 1852 m because that is 1 arc minute
<raptop> And by now, I mean 1929
<Althego> so i took the 1 arc minute on mars. but my number may be slightly off

<darsie> To get to the many easter eggs on Kerbin I built a cheap little glider. To my surprise the basic aluminium fins survived reentry with radial out attitude. It glides pretty good, too. And wow, it even landed in water like a plane without taking damage: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot175.png http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot173.png http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot174.png
<Althego> lol taht is tiny
<darsie> yeah :)
<darsie> All I want is a good screenshot of the easter eggs, so I called it 'anomaly crasher', trying to crash as close as possible. But it glides really good :).

<darsie> Please tell me it's not all monoliths except the airport on the island.
<Althego> hehe
<Althego> no, there are a few monoliths
<Althego> but there are many other things
Cryptoxic has quit [Quit: Leaving]
<darsie> I mean, there's a list of 12 anomalies, and while I haven't read the descriptions, the paragraphs clearly had more to say than just 'monolith'.
<raptop> Well, there's that saucer, and the inland space center
<raptop> uh, also the desert ruins
<darsie> TMI

<Althego> tut uhn jeb ahn or whatever its name is

<darsie> SPOILER WARNING! darsie glid to an anomaly on Kerbin: http://bksys.at/bernhard/temp/screenshot177.png
<darsie> Took a few attempts to land there so I could time warp to daylight. Maybe a polar orbit at the terminator isn't ideal.
<darsie> Just hitting the anomaly is much easier.
