<queqiao-> ⟨madlee⟩ Non-hydrolox career has me trying to plan a three-vessel EOR, but searching past posts in here it looks like LAN precession is a problem for other people too, presumably because it's too variable over a period of weeks/months. Has anybody succeeded, or am I doomed to wait for bigger or multiple pads?
<queqiao-> ⟨test_account⟩ in theory, orbits without precession should exists, but i don't know what they are (
<queqiao-> ⟨test_account⟩ * exist,
<queqiao-> ⟨BLT Sandwich⟩ polar orbits?
<queqiao-> ⟨test_account⟩ there is also an option to just wait in orbit until the stars are right for TLI, which is guaranteed to happen within 14 days
<queqiao-> ⟨test_account⟩ in theory, orbits without precession […] ⮪ found this equation, someone smarter the myself could probably solve it and find orbits having precession 0!
<queqiao-> ⟨test_account⟩ hmm, in fact, it seems to be zero when cos(inclination) = 0, which is a polar orbit.
<queqiao-> ⟨Gratak-⟩ Would it really make so much of a difference if you wait for the orbit to be at the right LAN once again? I mean with a single pad you are waiting a lot anyway
<queqiao-> ⟨Gratak-⟩ Also, multi vessel stuff is really expensive in terms of build time. I did a 2 craft where I split off all the human rated stuff into a craft that fits on the 350t while doing a 2000t for the rest and despite this saving the 25% human rated on the 2000t it takes longer in total to build
<queqiao-> ⟨egg⟩ (Discussions of build time and cost should presumably be in an RP-1 channel)
