That was a fascinating presentation. I'm in awe at the amount of work that these folks have put in to this. Being more of an explorer, I look forward to playing it.

They are really more of a tidal effect. The gravity of the black hole pulling on the water on the surface. The same as here on Earth, but on a more massive scale.

I don't think that the Endurance was ever in orbit of the planet. My understanding was that the Ranger traveled to the planet surface and then back to the Endurance who was some safe distance away in order to maintain timely contact with Earth.

That's a beautiful shot, Kyle.

Sniff, sniff.... Anybody else smell corned beef? ;) :rofl:

That's sweet! Nice job on the model. :)

Jeez, the drop outs are ridiculous. But, that was pretty amazing. :)

The new Edmunds looks positively beautiful. :)

No word on that. But, given the sea state (25' waves) I'd say it was not recoverable.

Posted by Elon Musk on twitter: "Rocket soft landed in the ocean within 10m of target & nicely vertical! High probability of good droneship landing in non-stormy weather." Awesome!

Probably. Counter rotation would require two sets of gear boxes. Which would complicate repairs and supply costs.

Yes, I've been doing some research and both propellers turn clockwise as seen from behind.

Have a look at this page: http://www.multiengineairplane.com/flying-on-one-engine/. He explains it very well.

A left engine out is the worst of all possible scenarios on a twin engine propeller aircraft. The P-factor can induce such incredible rolls that are not recoverable at low speeds. The pilots must take quick and decisive actions to recover. However, there is very little to do when you are at...

OK, so that's awesome. Thanks Edy!

Wow! That bad boy just leaps off the pad! FLY NAVY!

Very impressive project, Andrew! I look forward to its eventual release on (some) Tuesday. ;)

Not to worry fellas. You'll get 'em next time. :)

Learn something new everyday. Thanks Urwumpe. :)
