Space Voyage #1 Chatter
BigDog and I endevour to eventually create a coherent storyline for our voyage, to do so it would be cool if the Space Voyage thread was only for posts made in charater, ie only the storyline. This means we will need a forum for more generic discussion and banter. Here.

Re: Space Voyage #1 Chatter
Um, Jay Qu, I would strongly suggest that a thread was separately made for only storyline, instead of chatter. The storyline articles can be posted simultaneously on the main thread and the storyline thread.
Then, the previous part will be simplified. Further, moving to a separate thread just to post one sentence of a smarty reply or comment will be too much of a time problem for me, not to mention an extra effort.
The chatter thread may be looked at as nonsense talk thread at times also.
Will you consider?
Pleeeeeease...

Re: Space Voyage #1 Chatter
considered, but I think you missed my point. I was intending that the other main thread become only for storyline and this one be for out of character chatting and discussing of where the story is going.

Re: Space Voyage #1 Chatter
So I hope a separate thread will be created in which someone can (painstakingly) put up the new 'story' posts. For now, I volunteer.

Re: Space Voyage #1 Chatter
Janus pointed out to me some engineering issues in one of my posts. I am going to go back and edit out the issue. We may be putting those PM's into this thread so everyone can follow the conversation we had. It has to do with the module rotations to smooth out accelleration and the weights in the spokes to adjust the orientation of the ship without despin. I would like to open up the question of how to do this again.
My first thought is to have large flywheels inboard of the main ring that can be manipulated to adjust the orientation without having to despin. If we are constantly despinning and respinning we will quickly go through our supply of propellant. Any thoughts?

Re: Space Voyage #1 Chatter
Great minds Janus! I was going to introduce the billiards and bowling. Two lanes actually. I think we will all be much better players before the journey is over.
Excellent tour of the ship.
