<darsie> Is it wrong to use a payload fairing on an interstage adapter so I can eject the fairing?
<darsie> I've been looking for this so long till I searched how it worked on that one rocket where it worked ... accidently.
<darsie> same mass

<darsie> Why does drag increase if I make the fairing pointier?

<Rokker> ferram4: what should I ask the rutans
<ferram4> Dunno, I'm not good at coming up with things off the top of my head
<Rokker> neither am I that's why I'm asking you dammit
<Rokker> NathanKell: any ideas
<ferram4> "What is best in aerospace" in your best asking Conan the Barbarian tone
<ferram4> Rokker, their stuff uses hybrid rocket engines, yes?
<ferram4> Why not ask about stuff involving that?
<Rokker> I'm not sure they did the engines tho
<ferram4> Alright, here's one: why the wacky porthole window on an ogive thing?
<Rokker> that would be a good one
<ferram4> Also, any interesting shenanigans involving dropping the Spaceships from the carrier planes
<Rokker> ferram4: I'm worried that a gonna die with stratolaunch
<ferram4> que? Your grammar has confused me

<Rokker> ferram4: would the chops on his face be considered wings or canards https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/khGiYFYf/20190222_175809.jpg
<ferram4> Depends
<ferram4> What is more their function, keeping his head in the air or affecting the pitch angle of his head?
<Rokker> ferram4: its confirmed, the XB-70 is the most beautiful airplane in the world, Burt just confirmed it
<Rokker> the nicknamed it the savior.
<ferram4> It's such a weirdly angular one though
<ferram4> It reminds me of a Lamborghini Countach in a way. Though maybe that doesn't make sense
<ferram4> Actually, no. Ferrari Testarossa
<Rokker> ferram4: hey, you may be a genius, but you arent "argue with burt rutan" levels of genius
<ferram4> Not my favorite, needs more curves
<Rokker> shoo
<ferram4> Meh, dinner is soon anyway

<Rokker> ferram4: hes embarrassed that he was responsible for 3 of the 5 manned spaceflights in 2004
<Rokker> because he thinks humans should be farther than that by now
