can someone explain to me how spacex could not have coverage for the starlink deployment? They're literally adding to their orbital internet platform, and starlink satellites are supposed to form a mesh network. How can they NOT have a connection to show video of the deployment? lol
<transhohmann>
uuuhm
<transhohmann>
I detect a goof or a lie
<transhohmann>
either they said they set something up before they finished or../?
<SporkWitch>
they said it on the stream of today's launch. They shut down the stream right around SECO saying they didn't have ground station coverage. But it was a starlink launch, so by deifnition they must have a path to significant bandwidth, more than enough for the video stream lol

if it's around kerbin you can use any antenna, so pick the one that looks pretty (though better ones will transmit science faster)

I like the HG-55 for its lovely combination of aesthetics and power

hg-55 isn't a relay antenna, so it won't be able to talk to duna in a meaningful way

i almost never use radial engines
<Althego>
they typically underperform if you compare them to the normal variants
<Althego>
the only exception may be for a large booster, that still uses skipper, and doesnt have enough twr after solid burnout
<Althego>
then i might attach a few radial engines
<Althego>
still cheaper than mainsail
<transhohmann>
true
<transhohmann>
warping 45 days when I could just launch other craft in the meantime is inadvisable, right?
<Althego>
you can finish the stock career tree in matter of days with parallel missions
<Althego>
but that also means you are committed to the things you launched, because you cant revert back without discarding the other missions too
<transhohmann>
yeah I'm at 2 years 30 days due to all my warping
<transhohmann>
I suppose I should have said, "If I have to wait 45 days to be able to get a capture at minmus, should I dock another wessel or two to my station

forgot my other quotation mark.

don't have US2; haven't noticed any issues with CLS with KSPI or MKS, though

correction, one minor issue: transferring crew between modules doesn't seem to get Ground Construction to realize the worker is in the factory. going EVA and reboarding solves that, though
