egg changed the topic of #principia to: READ THE FAQ: http://goo.gl/gMZF9H; The current version is Christoffel. We currently target 1.2.2, and 1.3.1. <scott_manley> anyone that doubts the wisdom of retrograde bop needs to get the hell out | https://xkcd.com/323/

<GregroxMun>
ok this might be total bullshit
<GregroxMun>
but could the reason that tide locked worlds drift be that they are locked assuming their own mass is nothing?
<GregroxMun>
further, would you have to account for the mass of everything below the planet as part of the parent body? (<--that's the probably bullshit part)
<GregroxMun>
like for Vall, would you add Vall, Jool, and Laythe mass?
<GregroxMun>
1669800.5977916399. 1st number is period of Laythe if Laythe has no mass, 2nd number is period of Laythe if Laythe has its normal mass. That's 1.6 hours
<GregroxMun>
of difference
<egg|zzz|egg>
Principia *already* uses Jacobi elements
<egg|zzz|egg>
still that's not enough
<egg|zzz|egg>
you really need the proper period for tidal locking and that's very hard to compute
<GregroxMun>
how "very hard"
<GregroxMun>
is it accomplishable on a pc in human scale time
