You fuel your rocket with celery. It makes you sing 'Happy Happy Joy Joy'.
<Eddi|zuHause>
a vegan hippie rocket?
<XXCoder>
rocket that works on such low energy veggie would be amazing indeed. and vegan.
<Pinkbeast>
It made you sing, no-one said it launched :-)
<Eddi|zuHause>
yeah, at no point in that chain was it necessary that the rocket actually worked :p
<XXCoder>
very true
<XXCoder>
im sure nobody would want to hear me attempt to sing however
<Eddi|zuHause>
with that kind of song, the receiver isn't the primary concern :p
<XXCoder>
well I cant even tell if noise im making is regular or singing-like

The potholes in your runway are a serious hazard, but you can't fill them in because they're a habitat for the very rare Pothole Weevil. The drag coefficient is over nine thousand.
<Eddi|zuHause>
what even is the drag coefficient of a pothole weevil?

Are there African or European swallows? I think they travel bitween Africa and Europe.

How can I launch ksp2/proton directly, without steam?

Is proton experimental or hotfix better?

protontricks incluse protontricks-launch, that should be able to launch KSP2

I've chosen the "I don't care" method of placing them. Because they will drift apart anyway
<raptop>
This feels like a phasing orbit question or something
<raptop>
Like, a transfer orbit with a period of 4/3 the other one?
<Mat2ch>
Oh, yes, and release every time I'm back at the apopasis
<raptop>
yeah
<Mat2ch>
Still they will drift apart soon enough
<raptop>
I mean, that's a "KSP doesn't support craft doing their own stationkeeping" thing
<raptop>
An alternative is to launch your satellite network into highly elliptical orbits with vaying arguments of periapsis, so they're usually spread out regardless of drift.
<Judge_DedD>
I haven't tried it personally, but it looks like just the thing
<Mat2ch>
oh, it sounds great
