08:20 <Althego> hmm, maybe somethig is going to happen today

08:20 <Althego> !nela

08:20 <Kerbot> Althego => Soyuz-2 - CSO-2 - Mon Dec 28, 2020 16:42:00 UTC (L-08:21:08) - https://rocketlaunch.live/launch/cso-2 for info/stream

08:21 <Althego> at least there will be a launch

08:21 <Althego> https://youtu.be/p74FqD_HlOE

09:56 <Mat2ch> Althego: probably just a pressure test

10:13 <flayer> i've been trying to build a colony on mars

10:25 <Mat2ch> woah, 20 seconds of fusion. (I'm not impressed :P )

10:44 <Althego> where

10:49 <packbart> "Korea’s Fusion Reactor Sets A Record For Running At 20 Seconds"

10:49 <packbart> random search result: https://www.ubergizmo.com/2020/12/korea-fusion-reactor-20-seconds/

11:00 <Althego> meanwhile iter is going to take what, another 10 years?

11:17 <darsie> Till first fusion?

11:18 <Althego> supposedly first plasma in 2025, but first fusion is 2035

11:18 <Althego> by that time starships will be taking humans to mars

11:19 <darsie> It'll have higher power, and break even.

13:38 <darsie> I hope my comet pusher has enough delta-v to reach the high inclination comet on solar escape velocity. https://i.ibb.co/XY6X0BS/screenshot300.png

13:38 <darsie> To be refuelled in Kerbin orbit.

13:52 <flayer> why so many refineries?

13:52 <flayer> oh, to keep the engines burning at speed?

13:53 <flayer> *high thrust ?

13:54 <darsie> yep. I want to keep the engines at full power once docked to the comet, so I need 8 refineries.

13:55 <darsie> And I'll dock and push at the dark side, so I need NUKs.

13:56 <darsie> TWR is rather low, but ISP is high.

15:53 <Althego> i forgot about the soyuz launch

15:53 <Althego> moved to tomorrow

17:40 <Mat2ch> uhh, pressure test ongoing

17:41 <Althego> the pressure is on!

17:42 <Althego> the crane doesnt look to be too far. maybe they should have moved it, in case there is a tank failure

17:42 <Althego> although after that they would need the crane to clean up :()

17:47 <JVFoxy> geez.. been a weird morning. Now I gotten over a 'firefox glitch'... wanted to ask: anyone ever get inspirations for ship designs from something you saw in a dream?

17:47 <Althego> i rarely remember any dream

17:49 <JVFoxy> had this overly vivid dream of a flying pod thing. People were showing the features, in detail. Even flying it under bridges and power lines. Not sure what caused it, woke up, wondering if I should do anything about it now. :\

17:49 <Althego> hehe

17:50 <Althego> 2020. and we still dont have flying cars

17:50 <Althego> maybe it is a good idea because humans are dumb

17:50 <Althego> but if not flying cars, cheap flying somethings should be here already

17:51 <JVFoxy> one thing I realized when I woke up, the thing would be so unbalanced, it was lacking lift fans. I couldn't see it relying on the thrust tubes full time.. sort of like the harrier jet

17:52 <JVFoxy> ended up thinking I could sketch things out, already came up with some variants, full electric, small turbine powered...

17:53 <JVFoxy> this is one of those, 'is it doable, should I try doing a model? Or just forget about things?'

17:58 <Althego> if you have fun building it, just do it

18:02 <JVFoxy> lol... going to cost a bit. bad enough I already got a few things on the go.. suppose I could take the time to sketch things

18:05 <darsie> 1.10.1 crashed.

18:05 <packbart> every software crashes

18:05 <Althego> except the lem rtos :)

18:09 <Mat2ch> packbart: not true.

18:11 <JVFoxy> ugh... my firefox didn't so much crash, it forgot stuff.
