UmbralRaptop changed the topic of #principia to: READ THE FAQ: http://goo.gl/gMZF9H; The current version is 🐇. We currently target 1.5.1, 1.6.1, and 1.7.x. <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…

neph. — Funny enough, the top posts on r/astrology are actually very cool as far as astrodynamics goes

Damien. — @egg @egg when are going to move away from your mathematicians naming scheme and switch to KSP mod devs?

Damien. — and will there be an egg release

egg. — You can try the automated builds now I think
<discord->
egg. — Let me do some shopping and I'll see if I can point you to those
<discord->
Damien. — didn't even know automated builds were a thing
<discord->
Damien. — 🙂

Damien. — I've not played for a while and keep putting it off because of the heavy development pace

Damien. — I'll give the new celestial stuff a go on stock I reckon
<discord->
Damien. — do the stock planets have J2 configs now by default or does that have to be added ourselves?

siimav. — > heavy development pace on RP-1
<discord->
siimav. — Thanks. Although I'm kinda surprised that you think so.
<discord->
Damien. — admittedly I'm going off discord chatter rather than github activity
<discord->
Damien. — and I'm including ROKerbalism and neph's NQB stuff
<discord->
Damien. — just seems like a lot's being done

Gregrox. — pretty sure this is photoshopped
<discord->
Sumguy. — Yeah, there’s no beating /tg/station in development pace
<discord->
neph. — The first one is meaningful
<discord->
neph. — But it's not taken at the same time of day, it's taken when the moon is highest
<discord->
neph. — At least, that's my semi-educated guess with a healthy benefit of the doubt
<discord->
neph. — That said, looking at one of NASA's lunar analemmas, I'm starting to wonder if it's not also photoshopped. It doesn't look like an analemma, I assume that variations in the orbit of the moon wouldn't happen rapidly enough to produce that weird shape, and the size and spacing also seems iffy. Maybe it's an inclination difference to account for the smaller shape, but I'm starting to doubt that.
