🎓 Dr. Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱 (freemo@qoto.org)'s status on Sunday, 22-Dec-2019 20:20:56 UTC 🎓 Dr. Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱 @kashi Ahh orbital mechanics, the only world where you the more you accelerate the slower you go.
Always is a bit of a mind fuck how higher orbits have slower orbital speeds yet require you to accelerate to go from a lower orbit to a higher orbit.
