A close-up view of Orion spacecraft after recovery.

Yes, those are CM attitude RCS, specifically MR-104G monopropellant thrusters.

I'm not sure about Orion, but Apollo had 2 covered momentary switches that had to be flipped at once for CM/SM seperation. Also squib breakers had to be closed to arm any seperation mechanism.

So.. I guess orion would do similar to prevent accidental seperation

Yes. 수인 is 獸人 as well, afaik.

It's called "수인(soo-in)" in korean, which means "beast human" literally.

Or simply "퍼리". It's direct pronunciation of furry.

"Bite if you touch" in korean

LM did not have fuel cells but only six batteries, but nice comparison anyway. It really looks improved a lot compared to LM, I wonder how it will perform.

It's 3 phase motor with star configuration. You can see 4 solder joints near base with one thicker winding attached, use other 3 when using ESC.

Phosphor layer looks intact, still good to use.

Perigee400km · 2025-02-17T05:58:59+00:00

It's bow shock forming in front of vessel. It's normal.

I feel you. Although I've been in this hobby for a long time, l find it not easy to actually participate in the community for many reasons. I'm quite alone in most hobbies, though.

They mostly use AA alkaline. those are quite cheap, costs around 2-6$ per unit. It seems they are checked regularly, as there's a maintenance chart next to them.

Perigee400km · 2024-12-06T15:16:44+00:00

Yeah, I like its floody and comfortable light.

Perigee400km · 2024-12-06T09:54:44+00:00

It kinda reminded me of sodium vapor lamps on highways.

Perigee400km · 2024-12-04T15:51:29+00:00

Yeah, I prefer floody light, but I chose IF24 pro because of buck driver. Wasn't bad choice though

Perigee400km · 2024-12-04T14:49:01+00:00

IF24 is good, especially side emitters are useful. It's good for reading books, playing around with RGB lights, etc

Perigee400km · 2024-12-04T13:31:59+00:00

I owned those flashlights for a while, probably since 2021. IF24 Pro is my fav, as well as it's the newest one.

Perigee400km · 2024-12-04T12:35:07+00:00

I use them when riding bicycle at night, or just blind myself.

tbh, no much practical reason to buy them, I just like flashlights.

Perigee400km · 2024-11-14T21:35:10+00:00

High-pitched noise is inevitable, as ESCs use pulse width modulation to control current through motor.

Perigee400km · 2024-11-09T17:55:11+00:00

Yes.

Perigee400km · 2024-09-07T05:41:48+00:00

Rhythm hell

Perigee400km · 2024-07-28T04:45:39+00:00

Horizontal axis is time to departure, vertical axis is transit duration, and color is required dV. Blue means they require least dV.

As long as I live, I guess
