<UmbralRaptor> o_O
<UmbralRaptor> !wpn egg
* Qboid gives egg a Newtonian nickel
<egg> UmbralRaptor: a cyclic nucleotide-gated elephant can be generated from a single nucleotide?
<UmbralRaptor> I'd ask whitequark.
<kmath> <diodebot> kukri-containing omnicidal diode
<egg> UmbralRaptor: well it's a group theory joke^H^H^H^Hexcuse for a joke, so I guess we'd have to loop bofh in too
<egg> !wpn bofh
* Qboid gives bofh a Лидов ascending reflector
<egg> UmbralRaptor: have you seen the GRAIL trajectory presentation I linked?
<egg> !wpn Iskierka
* Qboid gives Iskierka an exploding orthogonal varistor
<Iskierka> I think someone's putting too much current through this one
<UmbralRaptor> egg: Some of it. ESL-1 → Lunar orbit?
<egg> yeah, roughly
<egg> but nice plots in various reference frames
<egg> for some reason that trajectory is always shown in the Sun-Earth Barycentric frame, this also has ECI plots which are interesting
<egg> ;rpn 180 83.4 -

<kmath> <stephentyrone> Only a matter of time until the standard adds `long friend`. https://t.co/odFX0Aztva
<egg> oh and of course this ends by quoting this tweet :D https://twitter.com/jfbastien/status/889879839179628544
<kmath> <jfbastien> @stephentyrone https://t.co/NAYvUnQBQo
<Iskierka> if assigning friends from a unique list of all humans you already need long
* egg stares at Fiora's IR thermometer
<egg> it's not the same model as mine, seems to be orange where mine is black and vice-versa
<egg> mine is the same as котя's though https://i.imgur.com/MLEq8qT.jpg
<egg> UmbralRaptor: the update reminder I added to Cayley continuously checks whether the new moon has come, so the following scenario is possible: a user in the continental US playing KSP, suddenly getting "the new moon of lunation number 218 has come; please download the latest Principia release, Чебышёв." in their UI, and then seeing the sun darken
<UmbralRaptor> Hah!
<UmbralRaptor> Where will totality be at that instant?
<Iskierka> use geoip to try time it to totality for each user
<Iskierka> (probably too late now though?)
<egg> UmbralRaptor: hm
<UmbralRaptor> 2017-08-21T18:30Z, right?
<UmbralRaptor> The middle of Tennessee, if so.
<UmbralRaptor> Kentucky if it's actually at the moment of greatest egglipse.
<egg> UmbralRaptor: it's the conjunction
<egg> UmbralRaptor: so slightly east of Nashville

<egg> !wpn UmbralRaptor
* Qboid gives UmbralRaptor a nefarious crow
<UmbralRaptor> Ah, that's what happens when you cross a corvid with a porpoise.
* UmbralRaptor ? ? for not having "corvid" in its dictionary.
<egg> UmbralRaptor: bofh: an outer (GRAIL-like) transfer with ballistic capture is surprisingly easy to plan with RSS+principia actually
<egg> contrary to stock I can't seem to get ballistic capture via an inner transfer (in stock it's fairly trivial), but that may be an effect of the Mun being big?
* egg pokes UmbralRaptor with questions about orbital mechanics
<UmbralRaptor> Unsure, but Mün:Kerbin is still enough for Lagrange points, so…
<UmbralRaptor> Oh, misread.
<egg> UmbralRaptor: bofh: http://imgur.com/a/XC6iL
<egg> eggs!
<egg> UmbralRaptor: bofh: also I wonder whether you could assist your ejection orbit with the Moon to have a *really optimized* outer transfer
<UmbralRaptor> bleh, don't know enough to guess.
<kmath> <jckarter> Of *course* you can use the C++ `and` and `bitand` keywords as reference qualifiers https://t.co/gqlx2I9WoF
<egg> !wpn bofh
* Qboid gives bofh an expanding memoised soliton
<Iskierka> I thought mun isn't big, but close?
<Iskierka> maybe not large enough margins inside
<egg> Iskierka: the problem I'm having is not with the Mun, it's with the Moon :-p
<egg> but I can't get a ballistic capture that way with RSS
<egg> although I can easily get one via an outer transfer http://imgur.com/a/XC6iL
<Iskierka> I assume "stock" meaning "with principia"
<egg> yes

<UmbralRaptor> Are you saying that we need to test FAR on a cow?
<Iskierka> a spherical one in a vacuum?
