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

egg. — @lpg neat supersynchronous orbit; what does the analyser say?

Stonesmile. — When in a L2 orbit should I do corrections to make the orbit tighter?
<discord->
Damien. — it doesn't really matter in my experience. you might make a wider orbit stable for 3 orbits or a smaller one for 5 but they both are stable for the same duration
<discord->
Stonesmile. — My goal is to make a lunar far-side relay sattellite, so a narrow one would be good
<discord->
Stonesmile. — Another way to solve my issue would be a different antenna setup, might be easier (however still curious about manipulation of L2 orbits)
<discord->
Damien. — they're tricky to manipulate once you're in them I find
<discord->
Damien. — if it's for a far side relay try making an inclined one
<discord->
Stonesmile. — Yeah, to not pass behind the moon
<discord->
Damien. — pass the moon with an inclined trajectory and it'll throw you into an inclined orbit
<discord->
Damien. — if you pass by the equator you'll be in an equatorial one
<discord->
Damien. — it's tricky though. lots of trial and error
<discord->
Builderbast. — Has anyone managed to get gmat to work for this sort of stuff
<discord->
Stonesmile. — gmat should work perfectly with principia, since they both simulate reality, but I'm not aware of anyone here that has put enough time into gmat to learn it properly
<discord->
Builderbast. — Yeah its too advanced for me currently
<discord->
Builderbast. — Or I'd habe to spent a lot of tike learning it
<discord->
Builderbast. — But I think its a really powerful too
<discord->
Builderbast. — But I think its a really powerful tool (edited)
<discord->
Damien. — it's a) pretty advanced and b) how would it even intereact with ksp/principia
<discord->
Damien. — it's a) pretty advanced and b) how would it even interact with ksp/principia (edited)
<discord->
Builderbast. — Well both have n-body physics right?
<discord->
Damien. — I tried learning it but I got bored
<discord->
Damien. — yeah they both have n-body, I mean like KSPTOT can read your bodies file
<discord->
Builderbast. — I should have learned it during corona vacation
<discord->
Damien. — GMAT isn';t really designed to pull info from ksp
<discord->
Damien. — GMAT isn't really designed to pull info from ksp (edited)
<discord->
Builderbast. — Oh no definitely not
<discord->
Builderbast. — Just that trajectories that work in gmat would also work in ksp
<discord->
Builderbast. — Afaik they don't directly interact
<discord->
Stonesmile. — Any interaction would be from Principias side, and there is none from principias side
