RE: The Methods Engineers Use To Keep a Spacecraft Oriented
Amazing article, I read it without breathing. I am working in the Aviation Industry for 10 years. Space Geek. I have articles on tomorrow's Falcon Heavy launch, which was featured on today's Steem Engine podcast (yay) and Kerbal Space Program which is my favourite way to spend hours on end to get Jebbediah out of stellar pickles with virtually no DeltaV budget left :D
For science!
:P It's great to see other peoples sinking their hours into KSP, recently got him stuck on minmus due to a staging error, so I sent a rescue craft; unfortunately it wasn't succesful as the secondary pod which I was gonna use a descent stage for him got stuck in a hyperbolic orbit during the final detachment. So I managed to swoop in under 1/2 of an orbit and grab his capsule and rescue him :D
