|    Waterskiing spacecraft manevuering    |
|    18 Jul 16 14:24:04    |
      From: adam.w.krajewski@gmail.com              So, everybody knows what the waterskiing spacecraft is, right?        So my problem with it is how to controllably manevuer with it. I think the       best way is to rotate forward (engine section by flywheels, and use some       thrusters for the cargo/habitat part. This must be carefully timed, so the       line connecting both modules        don't curve (or contort? Sorry, here I had problem with good word for that)       too much.        Any other ideas?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
