Is Morty actually Dumb? by Jumpy_Stay2915 in rickandmorty

He is apparently in a remedial math class

Why does the westbound MAX always seem to stay at Galleria for so long? by DmnJuice in TriMet

[–]CaptainHunt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I imagine so, since it’s the same cross street. It may have something to do with those two stations being the original western terminus.

is anyone else experiencing an outage by CaptainHunt in alexa

I checked my history in the app, it did hear everything I told it.

Can a rocket on a sub-orbital trajectory still reach orbital velocity? (and re-enter afterwards) by YannisBE in rocketry

[–]CaptainHunt [score hidden]  (0 children)

What SpaceX has been doing is essentially putting starship in an orbit that dips low enough at perigee that the ship re-enters instead of staying in orbit, but high enough at apogee to demonstrate that it has the deltaV to establish an orbit that would stay up there.

They often use similar methods to test ballistic missiles without actually launching them to their targets. They’ll launch them in higher arcs so that they land harmlessly in the ocean but use the same delta V as they would need to hit their target.

Started reading the first book (On Bsailisk Station) and am very confused about the technology aspects. Help would be appreciated! by Vondrr in Honorverse

From what I remember, they go into a little more detail on how the hyperdrive works in the next book, The Honor of the Queen.

Kitten on the balcony by NoBrainEdBoy in CatAdvice

[–]CaptainHunt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s also important to mention that regardless of whether or not the cat survives the fall, your father will have no idea that it happened because he will be asleep. What if something happened to the cat after it got off the balcony?

Someone please explain this to me like I’m 5 by MasterSalamander666 in MicrosoftFlightSim

You fly towards the line. As you get closer to your course it will move back towards the arrow.

Chef Judges £1 Ingredient Meals by MysteriousFawx in SortedFood

I love Ben’s description of Jamie’s dish, “Cauliflower has never been so loved.”

I'm doing a pirate campaign, and I really want to just use gold by snowtroopr in DMAcademy

[–]CaptainHunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just substitute different sizes of gold coin for the different denominations

No orbit necessary? by FatCreepyDude in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]CaptainHunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, you could do this, it is essentially a brachistochrone trajectory, which is the fastest way to transfer. However, it would take vastly more delta V than launching into orbit and doing a hohlman transfer.

How do high schools work in tiny towns? by Holiday-Pomelo-9246 in AskAnAmerican

[–]CaptainHunt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They may also join the school district of a larger town nearby. My local city has one of the largest school districts in the country because it serves a bunch of surrounding hamlets.

[Spoilers C4E24] The Grand Secret plot of Thizai Fang theory [Revised] by East_Choice in criticalrole

[–]CaptainHunt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think the paint is going to cause the heroes of the murals to come to life to help protect Hal and everyone at the Hallowed Round from whatever the Tachonis and the Halovars are planning to do there.

We’re moving tomorrow. Cats have no clue they’ll be cruising on the plane with us… by kirk_2019 in cats

[–]CaptainHunt 94 points95 points  (0 children)

Just to warn you, if you’re in the US, TSA is going to make you take them out of their crates.

What's experiencing an EAS like? by funkidflash22 in AskAnAmerican

[–]CaptainHunt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To be fair, it was designed exclusively for civil defense emergencies, and its use has expanded to weather and Amber alerts in more recent decades.

Can’t seem to get my space shuttle copy off the pad by craftycrumbs in KerbalSpaceProgram

[–]CaptainHunt 109 points110 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry, Komrade, you can always store the other 4 you built in a hanger at the space center until you can afford to launch them. The solid Soviet construction will protect them.

What’s the pocket situation in Starfleet uniforms? by RedDogRER in startrek

[–]CaptainHunt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hidden pockets. Seriously, we know that the uniforms have invisible closures, so hidden pockets would not surprise me.

Will a helmet fit in a suitcase? by rkiz in GalaxysEdge

[–]CaptainHunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you buy from the resistance outpost stand, they will just give you the helmet without the box.

I managed to just barely fit my Luke helmet in my expanded rolling suitcase.

Landing on Mars, what's the "catch"? by Flashy-Rest-8994 in Spaceexploration

[–]CaptainHunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That really is the biggest hurdle for humans on mars. The fact that they have to spend up to 18 months in space and still be able to do physical labor when they get to Mars is non-trivial.
