Me last week: "Well Shuji is obviously lost in the sauce so I guess Nyaan's narrative role is to ground Machu?"

Me this week: "Nevermind they're all bonkers, HEY CAN A RESPONSIBLE ADULT INTERVENE REAL QUICK?!"

Also why was this episode so fascinatingly horny.....

Nevermind the random sunbathing Machu was doing while she contemplates her first indirect kill, but Nyaan and her suddenly stripping to enjoy the cold surface of the Red Gundam was so fucking out of nowhere it was hilarious.

enjoy the cold surface of the Red Gundam

So, this actually annoyed me for physics reasons. Well, thermodynamics, I guess. Same thing if you apply enough if it, really.

Cooling is an issue in space. No air means minimal radiant heat dispersal. We know the Gundam has two forced air/gas cooling vents on the chest, presumably meaning hot gasses are being forced through them. Having only recently landed from painting outside in a vacuum, in a machine with a nuclear reactor and combustion thrusters, the chest unit of the Gundam, at minimum, should be quite hot and at worst dangerously hot.

The heat is dispersed by the same thing that carries the pew pew beam sounds.

Quantum bullshittery but cooler

Super conductor bullshits. Gundam can operate indefinitely in space, which means the cooling issue is solved in some manner (If I had to guess super conductor bullshit and extreme high efficiency mechanism such that thermal buildup never happens). Which means once it gets into the atmosphere, it probably is quite cool, as besides the normal heat mechanism, you can disipate it through the atmosphere.
