True, but gravity is the same in Kerbin and the Earth, and the same for Mun and the Moon, only that everything is about ten times smaller and denser. In fact, the whole Kerbal universe is made to be 10 times as small as ours!

No, some youtuber did a Minmus to kerbin mission only with the jetpack, but he didin't land on it, he was already there.

Just thought I'd say it: WHile watching CGPGrey's video "Is Pluto a Planet?" AN image showed up, showing a immensely similar artwork to what Moho would look like, and oh dear, it's looking brilliant! Here's the video: , at 4:01

The pressure causes the atoms to heat up, therefore melting. Maybe there's a thin layer of solid formation, but my guess is that the very core is molten. IF you read carefully the OP, he talked about planet and lunar surfaces, so I answered both.

And what is your evidence? Because you say so? Both are acceptable hypotheses, and always, with a statement, give information that supports it. Also, should I say that even scientists don't know? They are not absolutely certain about it, but the most of what I've read state that the core might be composed by molten hydrogen metals and rocky substances. On topic: Parachutes will work excellently on planets with a thick atmosphere like Kerbin. Eve will be the one that works the best, since it's atmosphere's density is i think five times that one of Kerbin, so it will be perfect for aerobraking and parachuting.

Does it have an emergency shuttle? And how many crew members? My god, it's Beautiful!

Not in the Kerbal Universe, remember, and either way, the pressure in the core makes the rocky substances melt, so it doesn't have a solid core, more likely a molten one, much like the earth.

What happened to this? DArkB0mb3rz22 seem to not have been active for a while now, i think it's time to skip to the next person. Also, how come this post has been inactive for such a long time? Aren't people interested in it anymore?

Since moons don't tend to have an atmosphere, parachutes won't work. They might have a thin atmosphere, but not enough to slow you down enough to avoid crashing. You can land on planets for sure, especially on the ones with a thicker atmosphere, but I wouldn't recommend trying to land on a gas giant, mainly because there's no surface to land on, and because the pressure will most likely crunch your vessel long before you could try to get out. So for what I know, no moons with atmospheres are added, so you'll have to land just like you land on Mun or Minmus. For the planets, that's a whole new story.

Hola a todos! Soy de Barcelona, y tenia una pregunta sobre los nuevos planetas. Hay alguna razón especial para llamar a un planeta Moho? Esque así en español, no tiene un nombre muy atractivo por así decirlo. Por cierto, fantástico juego, me encanta!

But if the angle or attack is 0, that principle should only create lift, shouldn't it?

Oh, man, I'm quite learning a lot today! And another question, does the Bernoulli principle affect at all to the lift?

But that's for wings that rely solely on the angle of attack for lift, isn't it?

Is it? I always thought it was dependent on the pressure, but now that i think about it, P=ph, which i guess in a way it does depend on density.

Okay, so like a denser gas, right? Like almost say, krypton atmosphere? Then it would increase tremendously drag, while lift wouldn't be much affected.

What does Nova exactly mean by 5x atmosphere density? 5 times more drag? or maybe 5 times taller? If it's the first, i don't think using a spaceplane would help at all. Lift is not proportional to density, it's porportional to the specific velocity through the medium. If it's the latter, sure it would help. There's two possibilities, and I hope he means the second one.

If you go to settings>Gameplay, there's an option that lets you change the maximum Persistent Debris, or amount of debris that you leave floating around. I think the default is 250, but you can change that to 0 if you want. Also, you should start thinking about designing your rockets so that the amount of debris that they leave is not abundant. Try to make your stages so that your takeoff stage ends within a periapsis of max 40.000m. That way, the debris will be captured by the atmosphere and crash into Kerbin. Hope it helped

Okay, so I decided to give it a go, and here it is! [spoiler=]

I think I'll be going to Minmus. Is there a map where I can see where each base is at? Or downloading the persistence wold be faster?

IT's not impossible. It's actually pretty easy, as long as you mean a kerbinstationary orbit. I think the height for that is 2868.4 km. If you circularize at that height, you should see Kerbin underneath you not moving. Also, you can check the precision of your orbit if you show the surface velocity. Try to get that as close to zero as possible, and you'll have a geostationary orbit!

Usually, when I get too bored of a kerbonaut on the Mun, i get him in his ship, and intentionally crash him into the ground. I probably couldve got him home, but that's less fun

Sign me in as well! I'll have to get a good aircraft up there!

Just finished my "successful" landing and got under a day! Exactly 16:33:24! It worked out not so much well, and I think I´ll make a rescue mission, but that'll be another day

Okay, just tried it, and it is definitely possible. I got to Minmus orbit in about eight hours, and with a bit of good piloting, sure you can get lower. Also worth noting, it is very fuel consuming. I couldn't land because of that

I'm not saying it's fake, I was just asking how you did it to learn. I'm not a rocket engineer, and I obviously don't know all the options. So you basically overshot the Minmus orbit and then slowed down when you got there?
