Hack gravity sets its p-value to 0.05 exactly, right?

<Althego>
it is possible to launch now, but they cant reach the station. when the station is rigth above it is not possible to launch
<Althego>
this is why i am skeptical about the suborbital starship travel
<FLHerne>
Althego: How does that follow?
<Althego>
because weather is a problam for any launch
<FLHerne>
Suborbital flights inherently don't have launch windows
<Althego>
but they are going to have timetables
<FLHerne>
It's not as if weather isn't a problem for planes
<Althego>
and you cant really divert with them
<Althego>
so you must wait
<FLHerne>
I spent seven hours in Gatwick South Terminal earlier this year, waiting for fog
<FLHerne>
(which shouldn't be a problem for rockets at all, since they're not controlled visually)
<Althego>
also somewhat redundant for planes
<FLHerne>
[for a 45-minute flight!]
<FLHerne>
When all airports have Cat IIIc ILS systems, yes :p

we'll need a new name for Air Traffic Contollers if parts of the flight path leave the atmosphere (ok, technically, there's still *some* air up there)
<Althego>
not really, since the direction of evolution seems to be pilotless and controllerless

<JVFoxy>
oooh
<Althego>
my hobby is still watching cylinders :)
<lordcirth>
We still at 50% chance?
<Althego>
now it looks go for weather, but can change
<Althego>
they never updated the chance

the tower on the pad, remind you of the old kerbal launch tower before it was removed?
<Althego>
i think that was modeled after the apollo era support structure
<Althego>
this one is new
<Althego>
only the purpose is the same
<JVFoxy>
well basically shape wise..
<JVFoxy>
new one looks a lot more fancier inside from what I've seen on a few shots
<JVFoxy>
any mention how long they will stay docked to the station?
<Alanonzander>
IIRC 23 days (they said Wednesday)
<JVFoxy>
quite a bit more than I was expecting
transit has joined #KSPOfficial
<Althego>
yes, it was lengthened
<transit>
Whew.
<JVFoxy>
cuz of later launch messing with things?
<Althego>
no
<transit>
Pump dat propellant
<Althego>
the crew dragon was so good that they decided thy can use the demo mission for an actual mission, even though it is shorter than a normal one
<Althego>
meanwhile starliner was set back after the test flight
<JVFoxy>
got supplies going up.. or science? :)
<Alanonzander>
yes
<Althego>
i think they had eva training too
<JVFoxy>
huh.. station as training post too.. =
<Deddly>
Oh, there's another stream at spacex.com
<Deddly>
Not sure which one to watch, so I have both going...
<Alanonzander>
Sci Chrellen is 26+ desocnds delayed :(
<Deddly>
spacex.com is 20 seconds ahead
<Alanonzander>
*Science Channel
<packbart>
a TV stream now shows two countdown, ~1min apart
<JVFoxy>
that suit mic pickup.. a bit muffled
<packbart>
I guess they're replaying the YT stream but still keep their own clock
* JVFoxy
has two from spacex.. hoping to hear audio loop from ground as well
TonyC has joined #KSPOfficial
<Althego>
did trump visit again?
<Alanonzander>
No :)
<Althego>
his loss
<TonyC>
oh he didn't ?
<JVFoxy>
probably didn't have time in schedule. Is a busy person
<TonyC>
oh well
<Althego>
9 engines just chilling out on the pad :
<Althego>
)
<JVFoxy>
9 turbo pumps.. just hope they all work ok
<Althego>
they usually do
<Althego>
although this rocket had several launches already
<JVFoxy>
I keep thinking back to when the N1 had issues each launch with so many engines
<Althego>
tha is more of an issue for falcon heavy and starhsip
<transit>
First stage recovery on this one today?
<Althego>
elon tries to say it is better for redundancy
<Althego>
but i see it as really bad for mtbf
<Althego>
probably
<JVFoxy>
heh.. that video clip, Jeb riding up on falcon rocket. Engine has issue, his expression changes but only for a moment
<Alanonzander>
Dangiot, Sci Channel has him on-site
<packbart>
the Soyuz launches on a bunch of engines
<Alanonzander>
Him=Trump
<Althego>
him, was a character in powerpuff girls :)
<transit>
Him was Satan
<transit>
Haha
<JVFoxy>
Althego him who.. trump or Jeb?
<Althego>
no, the character's name was Him
<JVFoxy>
oh... doh
<Althego>
hehe tim's stream is falling apart
<Althego>
what is that rain?
<Alanonzander>
don't think so
DIYGary__ is now known as Tortoise010
<Althego>
one minute
<Deddly>
Don't they spray something around to protect the pad?
<Alanonzander>
that is what I was thinking
<Althego>
the weather became really nice
<transit>
Holy cow so damn exciting!!!!
<packbart>
up!
<Althego>
tim's stream was faster :)
<JVFoxy>
light this candle! ;P
<JVFoxy>
ugh and net dies on me
<transit>
GO GO GO!!!!
<Althego>
hah internal view
JVFoxy has quit [Quit: webchat.esper.net]
<Althego>
we dont have that on cargo missions
<Althego>
looks lot smoother than the soyuz
<Althego>
they look comfortable
<deadmind>
yeah, just cruisin'
<deadmind>
is that the map view from KSP2
<Cranium>
i can't wait for these types of launches to become so normal, it's boring
<Althego>
hehe
<Althego>
elon said he want the landins to be boring
<Althego>
yet they are not even now
<Althego>
probably same for manned launches too
<Althego>
at least for a while
<Cranium>
jopefully Starship stops exploding all the time
<Althego>
i doubt this was an issue with the starship
<Cranium>
still though, bit disheartening to keep seeing a big fireball on the test pad
<Althego>
and no image again
<Althego>
now they are doing it on purpose
<Althego>
it's back
<Althego>
hehe a dino
<Cranium>
not just a dino, a sequined dino
<transit>
Whewwww!!!
<Althego>
empty trunk
<Althego>
not much in that service section
<Althego>
go spacex
<transit>
So happy they got the first stage back.
