egg changed the topic of #principia to: Logs: https://esper.irclog.whitequark.org/principia | <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…
<queqiao-> ⟨dragon36⟩ What do I do if my L4 orbit looks like a spring
<queqiao-> ⟨dragon36⟩ Is this stable?
<queqiao-> ⟨Paculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ Are you in a sun based reference frame?
<queqiao-> ⟨dragon36⟩ Kerbin Sun frame
<queqiao-> ⟨dragon36⟩ I have another one stable in L4. Is there a specific point I should burn to do this consistently?
<queqiao-> ⟨Paculino (ŝi/ri/she/they)⟩ Could you upload a screenshot taken with F1 so we can see it better?
<queqiao-> ⟨dragon36⟩ Sure, im also adding some normal delta seems like that might help too

<queqiao-> ⟨dragon36⟩ Currently only using tangent delta.
<queqiao-> ⟨dragon36⟩ Normal delta helps, I think I got this

<queqiao-> ⟨Aster // he/they/she // NDSE⟩ Hey there people, I'm relatively new to Principia, and I just wanted to know if this was a good manuever to flyby the moon? If this isnt really a good screenshot then just ask / tell me what I should actly screenshot and I will do that
<queqiao-> ⟨Aster // he/they/she // NDSE⟩ This is taken in ECI btw
<queqiao-> ⟨Aster // he/they/she // NDSE⟩ * MCI
<queqiao-> ⟨von Kerman⟩ This isn't clear. If this is MCI then maybe focus on the Moon and zoom in to see if the trajectory is actually a flyby?
<queqiao-> ⟨Aster // he/they/she // NDSE⟩ Using MEO now and it is a flyby
<queqiao-> ⟨Aster // he/they/she // NDSE⟩ It was on MCI too
<queqiao-> ⟨Aster // he/they/she // NDSE⟩ About a periapsis of 11 mil km
<queqiao-> ⟨Aster // he/they/she // NDSE⟩ +(egg is responding i am incredibly scared)
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ to look at the overall trajectory use MEO; when looking closely at the flyby, you can use use either MEO or MCI (and you should use MCI for orbits)
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ * orbits about the moon)
<queqiao-> ⟨Aster // he/they/she // NDSE⟩ ⟪egg⟫ to look at the overall trajectory use […] ⮪ Ah alright, cheers mate.
<queqiao-> ⟨AgustinCaniglia⟩ The James Webb Space Telescope Will be on Lagrande 2 point?
<queqiao-> ⟨AgustinCaniglia⟩ * Lagrange
<queqiao-> ⟨AgustinCaniglia⟩ Or is it already there ? or what
<queqiao-> ⟨Soviet Onion⟩ It's not tere yet
<queqiao-> ⟨Soviet Onion⟩ * there
<queqiao-> ⟨Soviet Onion⟩ There is a website where you can track its position and other stuff, btw

<queqiao-> ⟨von Kerman⟩ Russian localization in the new version works well 🙂 But the moon impact maneuver somehow takes 6 days instead of the usual two, didn't even think it's possible
<queqiao-> ⟨Al2Me6⟩ Looks like your transfer trajectory swings past the orbit of the moon
<queqiao-> ⟨von Kerman⟩ yes, it's strange
<queqiao-> ⟨von Kerman⟩ nvm this, it's not going to work... stupid mistake

<queqiao-> ⟨Al2Me6⟩ ⟪egg⟫ Al2Me6 was that vessel on its way out […] ⮪ Correction: no, it's still in a heliocentric orbit even post-encounter.
