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-> ⟨sichelgaita⟩ Glad to see what can be done with the equipotentials. Implementing them was a bit of a shot in the dark.

<queqiao-> ⟨butcher6994⟩ But where?
<queqiao-> ⟨butcher6994⟩ Also how does one describe such an orbit?
<queqiao-> ⟨daverec1525⟩ Equipotentials, as that OP suggests, seems like a nice way to describe it, especially when seeing the ‘peaks’ of that orbit reach the same or similar equipotential levels making up that local system.
<queqiao-> ⟨daverec1525⟩ Plus it’s also in the reference frame where the two larger bodies in that image appear stationary.
<queqiao-> ⟨daverec1525⟩ * ‘appear stationary’.

<queqiao-> ⟨sichelgaita⟩ We should really have a blurb in the wiki on that "new" frame (the lagrangian one). This would be a nice illustration of its use. But we are extremely lazy when it comes to writing documentation.
<queqiao-> ⟨butcher6994⟩ Fair enough. Feel free to use that picture.
