Orbital decay isn’t just friction from particles, you also have imperfections in the orbit and other objects influencing the eccentricity over time. The moon has gravity too for instance.

Yeah, in space there’s nothing to push against so all turning the sail would do would be presenting a smaller surface to be pushed directly away from the sun
And if you want more complicated orbital mechanics there’s a ksp mod: Principia which adds n-body orbital mechanics over ksp’s relatively simple patched conic orbital simulation.
I prefer palette because tastes are kinda like colours.
I always thought discs were optical and disks were magnetic
A lot of conspiracy theories seem to hinge on the idea that anyone engaging in the theory somehow has access to information that most people don’t, at least that’s my theory.
14, so yeah I guess that’s more of an exception. I did play a tiny bit of 13 but hated the combat
Yeah I’m on the verge of blocking ml as well as hexbear, it’s insane the level of mental gymnastics that’s happening. Like what do they think Russia is going to do any less damage to the world than America if they get the chance?
Do you normally control more than one character then? I’ve only ever controlled one character in the ff I’ve played so that sounds weird.
Yeah I think the biggest thing is not going into it actively looking for some kind of relationship
We’re already in the sun’s gravity well. The hard part is getting any point in your orbit to be close enough to the sun to use it’s atmosphere to slow down (or just hit it and disappear, that’s the easy part). Our orbital velocity around the sun is 29.8km/s, a low earth orbit would be in the range of 6.9-7.7 km/s depending on altitude and you can’t really get anywhere in space without getting off the planet. So even if we ignore everything else you’d still need enough fuel to change your velocity by nearly 40km/s. To carry the extra fuel into orbit you’d need a much bigger rocket and that means more fuel and expenses. In fact I’m pretty sure it takes more fuel to get into a circular low solar orbit than it would take to get to any other planet.
Yeah same, ml is getting worse
A bullet that is not at rest relative to the point where an external force has acted upon it.
Yeah I’d suggest looking at frames of reference and how time dilation keeps the speed of light constant or in other words special relativity.
They also gain people spreading word of mouth advice to never use chrome
What’s with the simoleon symbols?
Lemmy’s mostly alright, it’s nice that it is more politically open, though I’ve seen a lot I don’t agree with from some groups, namely hexbear, but also a bit from other places. ml is a mixed bag for me but at least you can just straight up block things easily.
Well that’s fucked, but nobody said anything about Christians or any kind of rituals, I think it was in reference to the ongoing genocide.
Why do they have the dota symbol though?
You leave earth orbit into a solar orbit that is slightly shifted depending on which direction you were facing when you left earth’s orbit
