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…

⟨lamont⟩ egg did you get that stationkeeping guidance law paper i ping'd you about awhile ago?
<queqiao->
⟨Bee Rights Activist⟩ I’m starting to wonder whether egg has a physics degree or something
<raptop>
his degree is in math
raptop is now known as redactedB

⟨kingparity⟩ i’m thinking about getting a physics minor myself since it works out perfectly where i’d only need to take 2 classes and they can both be on orbital mechanics lol

⟨Mushrooms⟩ oh, is that what's happening? i thought it was weird that it varied by over 50km
<queqiao->
⟨Gratak-⟩ Yes. I mean there are orbits (mostly around other moons) where the PE can change by 50km after a single orbit. But what you see around earth is mostly what I described. A low earth orbit is (unrealistically) stable in Principia (mostly since drag is missing above 140km)

⟨egg⟩ (bridge test)
<queqiao->
⟨egg⟩ I’m guessing the issue was just running out of RAM. Let’s see if it holds up better now.
<queqiao->
⟨Stonesmile⟩ Did you download some more?
<queqiao->
⟨egg⟩ Yes.
