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…

⟨egg⟩ Al₂Me₆ what do you think about this tooltip for the new frame: for low-energy transfers or orbits about the <<nom:3>>–<<nom:2>> Lagrange points.
<queqiao->
⟨egg⟩ that way even if it is called the reference frame of the Lagrange points of the X-Y system it is not quite as much of a tautology.
<queqiao->
⟨egg⟩ Though I guess I should really say low-energy transfers to what…
<queqiao->
⟨egg⟩ Which is messy, because I think SEL is useful for part of some Earth–Moon transfers…

<queqiao->
⟨egg⟩ ⟪Al₂Me₆⟫ Indeed. I understand that to be exactly […] ⮪ Not really; you have inner low-energy transfers which do not require the help of the Sun.
<queqiao->
> 5.1 MOO for Earth-Moon transfersah yes, MOO for EARTHMOO

⟨Al₂Me₆⟩ ⟪egg⟫ Al₂Me₆ (@_discord_721843413456257114:mat[…] ⮪ I think this works. In the end, the frame is for looking at stuff that are affected by Lagrange points, so I suppose there's not really a way around being slightly tautological.
<queqiao->
⟨egg⟩ Yeah. But it is probably a good idea to point out that this is the one you want for low-energy transfers (whereas for high-energy transfers to the Moon you only want MEO).

guesses that egg's mission plans now involve a lot of lunar (and other) cows
<queqiao->
⟨egg⟩ ⟪Al₂Me₆⟫ Indeed. I understand that to be exactly […] ⮪ Fig. 1 of the roman paper shows you what to look for in the SEL frame in the outer transfers (shown using the gradient rather than the potential)
<queqiao->
⟨Al₂Me₆⟩ ⟪egg⟫ Yeah. But it is probably a good idea to […] ⮪ Hm. Perhaps something to the effect of "for viewing orbits which are heavily perturbed by the <<#3>>-<<#2>> system (_e.g._, low-energy transfers and orbits about the Lagrange points)"? It needs 🖋️ 🔨 that I am too sleepy to do tho.

⟨Unofficial Aesthetic Inspector⟩ Rage inducing moments like this man, now Principia is doing the opposite
<queqiao->
⟨Unofficial Aesthetic Inspector⟩ its basing on something completely different FOR WHATEVER reason
<queqiao->
⟨Unofficial Aesthetic Inspector⟩ I'm getting sick and tired of having to do a full launch, only to find out Principia put "Duration: 1710.3s" instead of "420s"
<queqiao->
⟨Unofficial Aesthetic Inspector⟩ Or "Duration: 0s"
<queqiao->
⟨Unofficial Aesthetic Inspector⟩ Like what?
<queqiao->
⟨test_account⟩ Is it the "active engines" mode? are the engines activated and what engines are you using?
<queqiao->
⟨Unofficial Aesthetic Inspector⟩ ⟪test_account⟫ Is it the "active engines" mode? are […] ⮪ 3.6kn thruster, that is all
