raptop changed the topic of #principia to: READ THE FAQ: http://goo.gl/gMZF9H; The current version is Fréchet. 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… | <egg> also 4e16 m * 2^-52 is uncomfortably large

<discord->
JustDark. — Explain it to me like I'm 5
<discord->
Acer_Saccharum. — You go to the forum thread
<discord->
Acer_Saccharum. — and look for the download link in the first post
<discord->
Acer_Saccharum. — The download is hosted on a Google drive link
<UmbralRaptor>
I can't, as this is text and I didn't get reading down until about age 8
<discord->
Acer_Saccharum. — You want to download the binary
<discord->
Acer_Saccharum. — Let me preface it with:
<discord->
Acer_Saccharum. — Ask for your parents' permission before downloading principia, and tell them to follow the instructions
<discord->
egg. — @JustDark the forum post mentioned by @Acer_Saccharum is here: https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/162200-wip151-161-17x-181-principia%E2%80%94version-fr%C3%A9chet-released-2019-12-26%E2%80%94n-body-and-extended-body-gravitation-axial-tilt/

lamont. — in stock, non-purple-spaghetti physics, every body-inertial frame has the same axes is just offset to the center of the celestial?

Butcher. — @egg Should my probe in Lunar orbit last for months / years before it crashes into the Moon?
<discord->
egg. — depends on the orbit
<discord->
Butcher. — I thought it was hard to stay in orbit that long.
<discord->
Butcher. — Oribt is roughly 80-150 x 5000 km.
<discord->
egg. — what are its elements
<discord->
egg. — what does the analyser say
<discord->
Butcher. — I'm not in game.
<discord->
Butcher. — Is it only low orbits that tend to throw you into it?
<discord->
egg. — low orbits are worse, but either way it heavily depends on inclination
<discord->
Butcher. — Seems very dependent on *a*.
<discord->
Butcher. — I'm leaving it in orbit for now to build up some history for you. What sort of size save file are you interested in?
<discord->
egg. — @Butcher I don't know, the sort of thing that you would expect to build up over reasonable play
<discord->
Butcher. — I'll run for a while and see what I get. I did a bit of a sweep of craft not long ago, so it's a bit sparse at the moment.
