My idea for a Wormhole network that will be described in more detail in Infinitum;

Wormhole hubs are basically giant stations in close orbit around their parent stars (If around the sun for example, between Mercury and Venus for excellent solar energy, but not too close to a large gravity well), it would essentially be the intragalactic equivalency of an international airport, you would come out of the Wormhole, dock to the station, refuel, and go through 'customs' before going on your way through a solar system.

Here's what you can imagine it'll look like (It'll be described in much more detail in the book): You have a massive flat torus ring, say about the size of the Moon, and several hundred klicks across which is a basically a giant solar panel. Then just within that, is a gravity ring running along the inner edge of the solar torus that's inhabited by station workers, and Aliens leaving and entering the system. And within that, is a bunch of Wormhole gates that connect, say, a dozen different systems, almost like a spider web.

I'll be going into more detail where Wormhole gates are prioritized (Btw, hyperspace travel is also a thing, but it's slower than Wormhole travel), like around home systems and stuff like that.

What do you guys think?

Sooooooo close to 1,000 rep!

I have some new information regarding the analysis of my potential planets...coming soon...

Sci-Fi novel idea based of of an idea I had.

Now, as far as we know, wormholes can't be created naturally, and if they can, they're probably too small too detect/use, so my idea is if you build a wormhole gate without an exit, and, y'know, enter it, you'll pop out of a pre-existing wormhole instead of a naturally existing one that expands, or a white hole (If it's like a wormhole exit of course).

So that's going to be the abstract outline for a Sci-Fi novel set 100 years from now, where humanity builds a wormhole gate (Without an exit, still need to figure out an idea on why they enter without one, maybe space pirates, I dunno), and enters it out of curiosity, only to pop out in the Large Magellanic Cloud, at the presence of an Alien civilization, (Still debating on whether or not the Aliens has problems with another civ). Also need to work on some BS physics for it to make sense but I'll try to make it as accurate as possible, but you guys get the idea, right?

What do you think?

As for my WIP novels, they're on hold for now, sorry.

Happy new year! I hope it brings many succesful launches! #HappyNewYear2017

Happy New Year! Exactly two more years to go until the New Horizons flyby of 2015 MU69!

Hey @The White Guardian, do you know how to generate atmospheric curves?

Yay, 900 rep! Just 100 more to go! Thanks @The Raging Sandwich for my 900th rep.

What do you guy's think of my profile redesign?

Winter Storm Decima has given me a lot of KSP time, so I decided to revisit one of my old mods, one that hasn't been updated in a while, one that adds in some new dim lights to Kerbin's sky...

(Can anyone guess what mod?)

I've made Kittopia textures for quite a lot of objects in the pack, and I'll post screenshots tomorrow.

I ran out of today's rep trying to give @The Raging Sandwich some. Darn.

I may have just found an amazing Hoth analogue...
