<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — I am getting those curved looping lines
<raptop> Something like poor approximations of epicycles when you're in the Correct (Earth-centered rotating) reference frame?

<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — yeah, I guess, with R bar and V bar approaches and stuff

<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — it's too complicated for me to understand
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — and the help document is a text document, and I have no idea what he is saying even though it's a clear explanation
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — I'll come back to it tommorow
<raptop> rotating reference frames make cool rosettes, which are defintiely not Dho-Nha curves
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — something like this
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — if I only knew how to use it....
<raptop> that feels very Orbiter
<discord-> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — Are you trying to make that panel?
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — No, I am trying to use it to rendezvous in orbiter
<discord-> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — Have you ever docked in ksp without patched conics?
<discord-> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — Have you ever docked in ksp without patched conics (or at least without maneuver nodes) (edited)
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — nope
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — I do know how to rendezvous and dock in normal orbiter, I just want to use this for better precision and realism
<discord-> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — Are you familiar with polar equations?
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — nope
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — I guess I have to wait then, learn the maths.
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — well, I need to go to sleep, it is getting late.
<discord-> P​aculino (ŝi/ri/she/they). — goodnight

<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — Okay Now I understand it. I tried rendezvousing with it, and I also understand the graphs now. It is target centered?
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — and the approach time/velocity can be altered, which is done through a zenith/nadir burn
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — and the approach time and velocity can be altered, which is done through a zenith/nadir burn (edited)
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — the graph shows you where you are approaching the station from. Man, this is such a great tool!
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — I feel like an actual astronaut now lmao
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — Did they do these burns irl on the shuttle?
<discord-> S​tonesmile. — If you check the web cast from the crew dragon missions you can occasionally see the same noodles on the astronauts screens when they approach the iss
<discord-> S​tonesmile. — Well, not purple noodles, but still noodles
<discord-> C​aravans of Rockets. — yeah that's why I was interested. also in the shuttle
<discord-> S​tonesmile. — The shuttle was based on quite old computers, not sure they presented the data like that
