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

<Croze97> I'm getting this on the FAQ link "Requested URL (https://goo.gl/gMZF9H;) must be a parseable URI, but possibly incomplete to be a DynamicLink.
<Croze97> oops I'm dumb, just removed the semicolon lol
<discord-> T​ransparent_Elemental. — is there a way to tell how many windows for somewhat optimal moon transfer i have per month?
<discord-> K​irk. — At least 1
<discord-> T​ransparent_Elemental. — any way to tell when there will be one aside from just timewarping and checking if the inclination is right?
<discord-> T​ransparent_Elemental. — the PVG trick i'm used to seems to not work correctly this time, the inclination is way off
<discord-> B​utcher. — If you're launching East you get one per day.
<discord-> B​utcher. — If you're doing some Polar funky stuff you get around 10 per month.
<discord-> T​ransparent_Elemental. — could it be that it's just that time of 18 year cycle where i can not reach the moon at all?
<discord-> T​ransparent_Elemental. — the dV required to change the inclination and burn to the moon in one burn is just insane
<discord-> B​utcher. — I found that late 50s / early 60s was a poor time for Lunar alignment. It's ±18 degrees off the equator.
<discord-> B​utcher. — That's why I started doing polar launches for Lunar stuff.
<discord-> T​ransparent_Elemental. — it's 1957 in my career
<discord-> T​ransparent_Elemental. — oh well
<Croze97> How to you actually switch vessel or set target? The wiki says there are buttons for it, and a tutorial in the l5 rendezvous video, but I don't see either buttons and the video just cuts to having the target set and never shows setting the target. I also used to just double click on crafts in map view to switch vessels (in principia) but sometimes
<Croze97> it doesn't work
