<egg|zzz|egg> raptop_: iximeow: ye have summoned the egge,
<raptop_> I swear, the egge had me write some related tests for Principia once upon a time
<iximeow> raptop_: uttered the incantation
<egg|zzz|egg> raptop_: so uh
<egg|zzz|egg> iximeow said geostationary
<egg|zzz|egg> hm
<raptop_> egg|zzz|egg: I assumed a ~24 h, ~4.2e7 m orbit
<raptop_> I also ignored that the sun is at a finite distance
<raptop_> Which is probably NBD at the sub-lunar point
raptop_ is now known as raptop
<egg|zzz|egg> raptop: hmm, I am getting only 19 min of egglipse but I am probably screwing something up
<raptop> Putting the moon at earth-sun L1 would only get you an annular eclipse
<egg|zzz|egg> oh wait the sun is not a point
<egg|zzz|egg> ... but then that would mean even less egglipse!
<raptop> heh
<SnoopJeDi> raptop, eggstremely good ratto
<egg|zzz|egg> raptop: the lunar radius is 1737 km and the distance would be ~42 000 km, right?
<raptop> egg|zzz|egg: yes
<egg|zzz|egg> So then the moon would subtend ~4°,7 in the sky
<raptop> I'd be tempted to hand-wave the orbit as being 24 hours
<raptop> hm
<egg|zzz|egg> or about 13 permille of the sky
<egg|zzz|egg> (linearly)
<egg|zzz|egg> so any pointlike star would be egglipsed by the moon about 13 permille of the day, or about 19 minutes per day
<egg|zzz|egg> a larger star would be totally egglipsed less than that
<egg|zzz|egg> wait, the distance is 36 000 km when you are at the sublunar point, not 42 000
<egg|zzz|egg> so then we are talking about 22 minutes
<raptop> yay, I think
<egg|zzz|egg> but nowhere near 70 min
<raptop> hrm, my numbers were going with some point on earth being egglipsed, but it would have varied where
<raptop> sdfjklsfdlkj
<egg|zzz|egg> we might be measuring different things
<raptop> we are
<egg|zzz|egg> I think you are measuring "is there some shade on the earth"
<raptop> yeah
<egg|zzz|egg> whereas I am measuing "is there sun at the sublunar point"
<egg|zzz|egg> (which given a geostationary moon, is a strange place"
<egg|zzz|egg> s/"/)
<galois> egg|zzz|egg meant to say: (which given a geostationary moon, is a strange place)
