OHM Enceladus

[OrbitHangar]

Author: ignorethisbarrel

This addon contains two different Enceladus texture sets. One is a simple reflective texture. The other has a specular map, and thus has some very sharp reflective details. Installation instructions for the simple reflective texture are included in the Alternate folder along with the texture itself.

Also included is an Enceladus.cfg file with more accurate physical parameters and a trace atmosphere.

Stolen from The Mathroom:

A liter Von Neumann device,
Each day clones at 2 PM twice.
Clones are 1 liter greater,
Than half their creator,
When fill they Enceladus thrice?

First person to answer this correctly (I don't know the answer so you could guess and I'd probably believe it) will get a base named after them and a section of non-reflective ocean that spells out their username in the terraformed Enceladus addon I'm making!

(I really just want an excuse to write stuff in the spec-map )

According to Wolfram|Alpha, Enceladus has a volume of 6.73×10^19 liters, three times that is 201900000000000000000 liters. I have absolutely no idea what formula I could use to calculate the number of days that it would take. However I'm sure it's quite a large number...

By the way, wasn't a Von Neumann probe supposed to create 'children' that are exactly like itself?

Shiny thing! Me likes!

Me no math now. Me lazy.

Looks very well! Thx you!

 

[IgnoreThisBarrel]

Yep, that's pretty much exactly what a Von Neumann device is... I think, anyway.

And thanks! Me likey shiny moons!

I already have an entire asteroid named after me, so I think I'll pass. :lol:

Looking forward to downloading this sometime tonight.

So I set up a summation of what I think is the function described in the limerick, which is a summation of 2^(n-1)*(2^n-1)/2^(n-1) = (2^n)-1. I decided to exclude the "-1" from the function since 2.02*10^20 >>>>>>>>> 1. Going by that, it's a simple logarithm, so I plugged log(2.02*10^20)/log(2) into my calculator and got 67.452..., so the answer is 68 days. Unless I misread the limerick or got the math wrong, and I'd appreciate it if someone pointed that out.

Ding ding ding! We have a winner (I think)!

Lol, I didn't mean to say summation. I forgot that I made it closed-form, so I didn't actually calculate a summation. Answer's the same, though.

Meh, close enough

Not related to your textures specifically, but am I the only one having issues with UMMUs and UCGO cargos on Enceladus? Cargo drops to Saturn instantly, and the UMMUs just can't do anything useful on the surface... I guess this is related to the very low surface gravity, but I wonder if anything could be done to go around this behavior...
