Mark Ayres Anyway, all highly improbable, landing on a planet next to a star. et al maximus proximus. Remember Venus and Mercury for example, with their pools of boiling lead and molten rock, due to their closeness to the Sun. The SRV would have being going "gloop, gloop, gloop, blup, blup, blup" as it melted _that_ close...fuckin bullshit.
Jako Yes...its a representation of something, in this case an inaccurate representation. Why is it that you do not see this premise? The failure at comprehension lies with you, not us. (edited)
wow amazing landing Commander, I think you should still be cooking on the descent though, it would have been interesting to see you touch down on the dark side to see how the heat mechanics play out there (is there any difference), anyhow great landing and well done.
OnePercent, my guess it's because ship's thrusters are trying to balance out the gravitational attraction of a planet, and thrusters that are on the top side are weak so they push really hard and create a lot of additional heat.
You're way braver than me friend, as the second the temp gauge passed 100%, I'd be like _"uh, nope!"_ Also, it goes to show that when I get my Asp Explorer modded by the engineers, I'm focusing on (specifically) heat efficient thrusters and power plant.
***** yes and mater should get sucked into sun constantly..... there are planets in depths of space that are too close to their sun......they are not destructed instantly....they loose their mater into sun....over time.
Jess Star Nah that's a little bit wrong. Our star's name is sun, the Latin name of our star is Sol. Sun: the star that is the central body of the solar system (www.dictionary.com/browse/sun) Sol: Sol is the Latin name for the Sun. *The* sun not ~our~ sun (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sol) Sun and Sol are names for only one star. But star is the type of orb. And other orbs have different names as in this case.
There are many central bodys of a solar system though. Sun by definition is a star if it is the center of a planetary system. We as a species are very SOL centric and use it as the end all be all. So we do have "our" sun or "the" sun but requirements to be called a sun are very vast and relatively easy to achieve. Its more a bit fuzzy of a term thats not technically correct from an English major's perspective but more correct from a astronomers perspective
Of course a planet that near to a sun which should have been turned into pure lava is hundred degrees below zero on the other side. That's how it works lel.
The extremes of space would create conditions much like in Mercury, where one side is capable of melting solid rock yet the opposite side is still able to freeze water. Despite being so close to the sun. This is pretty common with celestial items.
Are you insane? 160 deg temp I think before you landed then the temp suddenly drops to like only 27 deg !! in your SRV 🙂. It must be flawed / bugged heat mechanics CMDR anyways very well done on surviving a landing that close to a star
This is just dumb, the surface should be burning. Oh well, Frontier Devs ... what can we expect? The only planet surface they created so far is the barren rock one. Sorry physics, DLC is not out yet. :P
... so u land on the dead planet, take the buggy.. and then the freeroam in empty planet, where is nothing to do? hmm so whats the point? :o))))))))))))))))))))))
I know video games don't have to be 100% real if they were we would have no fun, but this is far beyond my suspense of disbelief the sun's surface in 5,500 degrees c 10,000 f even if they had the tech to get close to a star without burning you just can't land on a planet that close, a planet that close to a star would be nothing more but molten lava of death.
Oh to hell with that. I'm not getting that close to a star, even if the view is absolutely amazing! That Asp's paintjob must have been bubbling. No way that surface would actually be that solid that close. All the same, that's quite a view. Saw a person landing on an S-class supergiant planet. You can get some amazingly interesting views in this game. Quick question: would the opposite side of the planet have any sort of effect on your heat buildup? This planet is obviously tidally locked, so I wonder if the temperature would be lower on the back end.
my only question is, why doe the ship cool down, after dropping out of orbit? on the site that is facing the star, anyway still takes some balls to do that without heatsinks
Actually, if the planet had a thick atmosphere it would have been even hotter, because it would trap the heat. Thats why in our own solar system, The surface of venus is actually much warmer than Mercury, even though mercury is right next to the sun.
The ozone layer protects against solar radiation. The atmosphere itself is what captures and retains heat; The denser the atmosphere, the more heat it can hold. This is why Venus averages a balmy 900F, while Mercury is about 800F during the day and can plunge hundreds of degrees below zero on the dark side of the planet.
That's because your FSD is quite hot when in use. It heats up considerably when jumping, but it's not too cool while in supercruise either. In normal space it's off, so you ship can cool down quite a bit more.
ironmanTetsuoTV That's due to most of the heat being generated by the FSD, hence why if you "crash" into a Star you can cool down before attempting to escape the gravity
Don't call a star a sun the sun is the name of the star in are system. Also this game uses Procedural generation for there planets and systems so things like this happen, awhile ago there was like 15 km deep hole that was close to it's star that you will fuel scoop while trying to land
