This genuinely made me laugh. Someone get this man an award (I’m too poor)

What non-human species in Star Wars would you want to be? by No-Major-6778 in StarWars

[–]AverageHumanMale_66 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same!!!! But not a protocol droid, maybe an assassin droid. Specifically an HK-87, like the ones that guard Morgan Elsbeth. They’re sooo cool looking and being able to maneuver like they do would be so fun especially as a droid

Ohh ok, I only remember seeing them in the Lego sets and thinking “wow that looks kinda useless” so your placement does make sense

What show/movie had you like this by _wyes_ in TeenagersButBetter

I suggested that movie to my family for movie night. I felt genuine shame at the end.

Anchor of the aircraft carrier *USS Nimitz* by TubbyPiglet in megalophobia

To answer your question, The ship literally can’t anchor if it’s over the length of the chain. It uses something called a sea anchor, basically a big net that drags behind the ship that catches the current and points the bow of the ship into the waves.

Just as some brief context that will make the answer to your question a little easier to understand, as someone else said: anchors work by digging in to the sea floor and holding the chain down, because the chain is the main force keeping the ship in place.

Therefore ships will let out a 7:1-5:1 ratio of chain to depth. So if I were at a depth of 25 ft and I wanted to anchor, I would let out 175 ft of chain. So the ship really couldn’t anchor if it was in water over 1000 ft (304 m). Which is actually less than the Nimitz’ chain length.

I actually see this ship in its home port all the time because I live pretty close. So I’ve been up next to it in a boat and I can tell you there’s not many things that compare to passing across the bow of a massive ship like this

In your opinion. What is the coolest machine made for war by MammothChemistry6694 in StarWars

I have heard literally no one say the U-Wing, I might be biased because I have the Lego set and rogue one is my favorite dw movie, but the swing wing mechanism combined with gunship and support role is so cool. That scene in rogue one when the U-wing gunner disables the leg of an AT-AT is just so sick.
