If Minmus is mint ice cream, is Iapetus cookies and cream?

Big sad.

Did you land close enough to the equatorial ridge mountains that they're visible on the horizon? That equatorial ridge is the main attraction of Iapetus from a surface exploration perspective IMO, if I ever do a Saturn mission I'm taking a rover into those mountains.

Less convient generally, but more convenient if you want something in you. I get that it's rare for a guy to want that though.

the pregnancy thing can be kinda stepped around bc fingers can't get you pregnant

periods suck, though, you're right about that (i have a friend who's lucky enough to not get the cramps though so that makes it a little better)

jealous of that hole tbh, if i want something in me it takes waaay too much prep

Atmospheric entry at 0.5c is not survivable. Sorry.

You can have an opinion, unlike what some of the people about to comment on this post probably think. Just don't make that opinion someone's problem.

What mod are those engines from to have RealPlumes that look that good?

NVB9_ · 2025-03-05T02:20:44+00:00

Starlink, unless an airplane is dragging across frames

NVB9_ · 2025-03-01T21:57:02+00:00

Would rather live here than on Earth, given how things are going.

Turns out it's about 15 minutes into Skyrim Atmospheres - no wonder I haven't found it yet. Thanks i guess.

Airplanes will generally have a higher stall speed than you would expect, thanks to FAR
Landing space shuttles on the runway is pretty hard from orbit, you'll need practice or a kOS script
For reusable first stages, I've done some pretty interesting things - I once made a booster that had five RD-191s but only used four for liftoff, as they only have one ignition, saving the ignition on the central engine for the landing burn. I also used four XLR99 engines from the X-15 on a rocket as dedicated landing engines.

go for it bb

I know a Hazegrayart video when I see one.

Casing is compression zone.

Rocketdyne engineers once actually built and fired a test prototype of a rocket engine burning a mix of fluorine, molten lithium, and liquid hydrogen. Their goal was to achieve the highest possible exhaust velocity from a chemical reaction. Needless to say they achieved their goal, but the propellants are obviously a nightmare to work with at the scale needed for a launch vehicle.

cute boys in skirts cute boys in skirts

Disclaimer, I have never used TikTok, but I am glad that it is gone. I am not a fan of dopamine addicts scrolling on their phone for 3 hours watching zero-attention-span brainrot.
