The Trans-Mars Injection burn from LEO to Mars will typically cost you just under 3600 m/s. Earlier this year, I spent quite a bit of time with dgatsoulis learning how to make the trip to Mars (or other planet) by starting off on the moon, dropping to a low periapsis at Earth, and then...

:rofl:

Thanks! I believe the lifelong medicines are only going to be a couple. (Most notably, the Tacrolimus.) In the last year, the number of medications I've had to take has trickled off substantially. During the first 3 to 6 months, I was on a lot of anti-viral, and anti-fungal meds. (Perhaps...

Hello everyone. I'll keep this short, but I wanted to let everyone know that today (June 23rd, 2014) is my 1 year double lung transplant anniversary! It has been quite an experience, but I'm happy to be here 1 year later reporting that everything is going well. My pulmonary function tests are...

I think I understand exactly what this guy wants, because I've wanted it too. Essentially, I've wanted to be able to use the usual t and r keys to speed up time in +1x increments and -1x decrements. Pressing CTRL+F2 and having a time control box sitting on your screen looks ugly (especially...

I played the campaign for Battlefield 2: Bad Company a couple of times actually. I thought it was pretty good. I started the BF3 campaign, but it didn't appeal to me enough to finish it.

If anyone cares, Battlefield 3 is currently available for free until June 3rd. It does require Origin, so that may be a major detractor for some.

New record for sure! No worries about the broken radiator. Small technicality but definitely not a crash. What happened in the first playback? Did you fall asleep at the computer? :) Great flying, thanks for your interest in this challenge. I made this challenge before I knew how to use IMFD...

Sounds great! So you got it down without folding the gear, right? At 1h 10m? I'll put that in the score list as the best time if that's the case. Press . (period) and , (comma) to use the wheel brakes. Note that braking is directly tied to your frame rate. The higher your FPS, the less braking...

No worries. The necropost policy doesn't apply to challenges That was a great run! Wow ... 1 hour 7 minutes and some change!! Are you kidding me!?!? :)

Go back to the first post and look where it says: I see from your country flag you're in Canada, so you'll probably want to use Doug's US Mirror. Download the .torrent files from there and then open them in your BitTorrent client. For example, for Earth, click here and download this file...

I turned on my client. Should give you up to 10Mbit/sec. (Though, it depends on your capacity as well.) I recently started shutting my computer off at night, and my bittorrent client doesn't start automatically when I reboot.

If Elvis Presley and Glen Danzig had a kid (which admittedly, would be pretty weird), his name would be Julian Casablancas. http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/59551693/Images/Music/Julian.png

People ask about Joysticks quite often: Recommended Joystick? Do you use the Thrustmaster T joystick? good, low price joysticks? Best joysticks for Orbiter? What joystick do you use? Good joysticks for Orbiter Joystick? Joystick? ...and more One of the most common recommendations is the...

Hmm... do you just want network attached storage? Or are you more interested in taking on a project and spending a bunch of time tinkering and tweaking with OS installation and set up? (Which can certainly be a lot of "fun", depending on your idea of fun.) If you just need storage, there are a...

I use to think that every time things drifted a little, I needed to come out of time warp and do a correction. There are a couple of reasons why that isn't the case. In some flights, the error actually corrects itself as you go forward in time. Sometimes the error will "wobble" in and out...

Are you just doing 1 mid-course correction and then warping time forward all the way to the moon without doing any additional checking? If so, that's your problem. TransX isn't very accurate. Even a simple Earth → Moon trip may require multiple corrections. Are you trying to *just get there*...

Just to say how incredible everything looks! Very impressive animations. Also, I've never even heard of the N-1. I'm such a n00b.

I just turned my client back on. Should help seed for up to 10Mbit/sec.
