guys, go see gravity immediately on the biggest screen you can find i have three complaints about the movie: 1. there's some dodgy orbital mechanics going on, but meh whatever it's just to expedite the story and it isn't insulting to one's intelligence like 99% of movies with space travel, and you won't even notice it unless you play a lot of kerbal space program 2. it gets a little too melodramatic in parts imo, but then again maybe i'm just a sperg who would rather look at spaceships than listen to why sandra bullock is sad 3. 24 fps makes some of it look like smeared-out blurry poo poo from an rear end; why are we still filming movies at such a low framerate is it 1904 but otherwise it is amazing so seriously go watch it it's a little known fact that sandra bullock's last name is actually short for bad-at-airlock

people complaining about the 'soap opera effect' are like 90% people with lovely motion interpolation on their tvs that makes certain scenes look spooky unreal and others completely unchanged. proper high framerate is fine after like 30 seconds

ol qwerty bastard posted:guys, go see gravity immediately on the biggest screen you can find just saw it. point by point: 1. don't care much 2. absolutely agree, and this is my biggest complaint (albeit still fairly minor) about the movie 3. don't care much all in all it was pretty drat good, very suspenseful and intense. also lol at the intro basically saying "space has no air. you can't hear anything because there isn't air. also you can't breathe in space because there isn't air. we're only telling you this because we know many of you are borderline retarded"

A wooden performance from a nutty woman and her oak of a man make this weightless thriller a 'must miss' for October. Ham fisted trajectories and a predictable orbits make this reviewer think --- "George Clooless?"

i kinda wanna see gravity but the trailer makes it look dopey as poo poo like, does the woman who's been training for yers to spend a few days in orbit seriously start screaming and crying like an idiot? when whatever accident happens and she starts spinning away is there any explanation for why she doesn't click on her attitude control and then jet back to safety?

angry_keebler posted:i kinda wanna see gravity but the trailer makes it look dopey as poo poo im pretty sure they dont train you on what to do when the space shuttle blows up because the only time that happens the astronauts had exactly enough time to go "welp" before the disintegrated/hit the surface at 300 m/s. i bet part of the "astronauts are totally calm and stoic at all times" thing is because nobody survives when the poo poo really hits the fan like when Soyuz 11 depressurized or when Soyuz 1's parachute failed.

haven't seen the movie yet but the dv of a real-life astronaut jetpack is minuscule and probably wouldn't have helped much e: the total dv of the emergency recovery jetpacks used on the iss is THREE. the total dv of the mmu used in that famous image is ~24

do the regular suits even have thrusters? I thought they needed that chair thing for that.

Shaggar posted:do the regular suits even have thrusters? I thought they needed that chair thing for that. not really, they have a SAFER unit that is supposed to be useful if you let go of the hull or something but it only packs like 3 m/s of dV which is equivalent to less a third of a second of freefall on the surface. e: like for comparison if you were moving at 7 miles per hour in space, 3 m/s dV wouldn't even be enough to stop you, let alone start pushing you back. and thats still a best case scenario were you happen to be pointing in the exact right direction with no rotational velocity and no need to correct course.

Gus Hobbleton posted:i dont think you know how fast a meter per second is in my expert analysis of roughly 2 seconds of a trailer that i didn't pay much attention to i accurately determined her combined roll and tumble looks like slightly less than 1 rotation a second so ~1.7 m/s or so that's 1.3 m/s Δv budget left to spare to scoot back to safety

that is a picture of beams of light traveling from the CMB towards us. as they travel they are being distorted by massive objects near their path. the article is about analyzing the distortion to make deductions about the objects and that they have just discovered something about the very early universe from it
