raptop changed the topic of #principia to: READ THE FAQ: http://goo.gl/gMZF9H; The current version is Galileo. We currently target 1.5.1, 1.6.1, 1.7.x, 1.8.1, and 1.9.1. <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… | <egg> also 4e16 m * 2^-52 is uncomfortably large

Ringo. — Well, I've managed to make the maneuver use all the Delta V I have, but it's not correct
<discord-_>
itsRyan. — It's standard in Principia and in real life to have to do a small correction burn with OMS or RCS after main engine shutdown. Usually just takes a little H/N on RCS along the same heading to fix it if your burn was executed correctly. Longer, lower TWR burns are easier to get close the first time, which is why Crew Dragon uses a separate de-orbit thruster instead of the super Dracos.

Ringo. — Oh ok thanks
<discord-_>
Ringo. — I will do that tomorrow, have to sleep lol

Zeusbeer. — Mhm, did you burn exactly as the principia countdown turned 0 seconds?
<discord-_>
Ringo. — No, I started the burn as the navball indicator was saying
<discord-_>
Stonesmile. — @Ringo The navball indicator isn't to be trusted, Principia has it's own timings in the flight planner
<discord-_>
Ringo. — Alright
<discord-_>
Ringo. — It could be because of that?
<discord-_>
Stonesmile. — Mostly that, another thing to watch out for is engine start up time, when you start your engine it can be that it won't give full thrust at first, so you have to start a little early
<discord-_>
Ringo. — Yeah
<discord-_>
Profiremu23. — I try to calculate my burn by half my total burntime
<discord-_>
Ringo. — And also, the burn time of the Agena stage is 4min, and I have 4min30s of burntime, could it be because of that too?
<discord-_>
Stonesmile. — Once again, the numbers next to the navball are useless, use the ones provided by principia
<discord-_>
Profiremu23. — I really confused
<discord-_>
Ringo. — > Once again, the numbers next to the navball are useless, use the ones provided by principia
<discord-_>
Ringo. — Okay thanks
<discord-_>
Ringo. — But can the throttle decrease past 4min of burn?
<discord-_>
Ringo. — With TestFlight
<discord-_>
Stonesmile. — If you overburn your engine it can fail, yeah. That is what TestFlight is all about
<discord-_>
Ringo. — Yeah
<discord-_>
Ringo. — But 30 seconds more can be fatal for it?
<discord-_>
Stonesmile. — It's somewhat random, so yeah it *can* be fatal
<discord-_>
Ringo. — Ok thanks

Ringo. — How much Delta V I need for a TMI on average?
<discord-_>
Butcher. — @egg Another fun fatal, reproduced twice now:
<discord-_>
Zeusbeer. — Actually, because of n-body, will it take less deltaV to go to the moon if the sun is on the other side on your transfer? (new moon) or is it an incredibly small difference
<discord-_>
Stonesmile. — If you do a normal hohmann transfer, then the sun isn't changing much. A ballistic capture tho...
<discord-_>
Zeusbeer. — Yeah but say you calculated without the sun, would you miss it by a lot?
<discord-_>
Stonesmile. — That is above my knowledge 😅

<discord-_>
Damien. — @Zeusbeer if you can imagine it, there's probably an astrodynamics paper discussing it somewhere
<discord-_>
DRVeyl. — Pretty sure the sun is going to accelerate the moon just as much as it will your vessel. So it doesn't affect your transfer.
<discord-_>
itsRyan. — No, when orbiting the earth, you are *already* orbiting the sun, so you won't see gravitational effects in the earth reference frame. Just like you never see effects from the solar system orbiting the galaxy.

sichelgaita. — @Butcher Could you create an issue and attach the logs? (Bonus points for a journal.) On the face of it it tells you that a pointer is null, but then I have never seen this particular check fire. And no, your build doesn't have extra checks.
