UmbralRaptop changed the topic of #principia to: READ THE FAQ: http://goo.gl/gMZF9H; The current version is Fano. We currently target 1.3.1, 1.4.x, 1.5.1, and 1.6.1. <scott_manley> anyone that doubts the wisdom of retrograde bop needs to get the hell out | https://xkcd.com/323/ | <egg> calculating the influence of lamont on Pluto is a bit silly…

Nicholas Kirschabum. — ^^ my question as well
<discord-_>
Sir Mortimer. — the rings could be offset by a config value along the axis of the magnetic dipole
<discord-_>
Sir Mortimer. — and the magnetopause could be offset by some semi-random value that simulates the strength of solar wind...

Sir Mortimer. — wow. jupiter is massive.

Sir Mortimer. — Within 20 RJ are immense radiation belts similar in nature to the Terran Van Allen belts, but over 10,000 times as powerful. Highly energetic particles are trapped within these belts - Pioneer 10 (the first spacecraft to fly through the belts) was very heavily irradiated, receiving a total dose of over 250,000 rads from the protons and electrons therein. For comparison, a whole body dose of
<discord-_>
Sir Mortimer. — The magnetosphere itself is huge, extending at least 650 million km downwind of the planet, and has been detected as far as the orbit of Saturn
<discord-_>
Damien. — Oof
<discord-_>
Sir Mortimer. — 250000 rads.

Sir Mortimer. — jools inner belt has 200.
<discord-_>
Sir Mortimer. — and that's deadly as it is

Sir Mortimer. — Who said the magnetic field has to be centered on the body?
<discord-_>
Butcher. — @Sir Mortimer I tried your tilted belts in RSS on Earth, I think it worked.
<discord-_>
Sir Mortimer. — @Butcher I just updated the RSS radiation model config. the fields for the ice giants now should be a bit more... interesting.
<discord-_>
Damien. — ❤
<discord-_>
Sir Mortimer. — and good news for stock: Laythe is outside the innermost radiation belt of jool.
<discord-_>
Sir Mortimer. — but Laythe is as far as you get to go alive.
<discord-_>
Damien. — nice
<discord-_>
Damien. — what are your thoughts on the probe core thing?
<discord-_>
Sir Mortimer. — doable. i'd extend the functionality of the failure module to support radiation reducing the MTBF, and maybe add a config to the science modules that can make them record data slower when they're damaged by radiation

Damien. — @Sir Mortimer I didn't think of science affects but that's genius

Damien. — also: HDD size reduction

Damien. — bad sectors increase over time

Damien. — currently ROKerbalism has unlimited drives (proc avionics issues) but it'll come
<discord-_>
Damien. — @Kurgut get hype
<discord-_>
Sir Mortimer. — actually, could you put that on github please? as a feature request?
<discord-_>
Damien. — sure if my login is saved on my work pc
