I've not seen the show, but I thank you for your interesting story about Poland and Apollo 11.
Once my high school physics teacher was a little 12-13 year old boy during the Armstrong landing, he and his parents wondered why the Russians were so small when it came to landing on the moon that everyone knew that the Americans and the British were self-righteous arrogant snobs(it was opinion of my teacher not mine
), but the Americans and NASA and most countries of the world sincerely congratulated them for both sputnik missions, Gagarin's flight and Leonov's Space Walk, it would be appropriate for the Russians to congratulate NASA and the Americans on the landing on the moon, and not to downplay that event

What do you think about Apple TV series, "For All Mankind" about an alternative version of lunar exploration were not NASA land first on the moon but Soviets?
I think it great show :-)
I am Polish, my mother told me that Poland. Romania and probably Hungary were the only countries of the former Eastern bloc that decided to broadcast directly from the Apollo 11 landing, America broadcast it in a band open to the whole world, and it seems that to this day it is the world record for the largest mass event in the history of TV.
My mother, who died in 2017, said that the first secretary of the Polish United Workers' Party (Polish Communist Party) decided to direct broadcast without consulting Moscow, which liquided off Brezhnev! ;-)
Apparently, Brezhnev's objections that the apollo program was a tool of propaganda domination of the US, he reportedly wrote back to Brezhnev that he would not be able to deprive the Polish nation of participation in this epochal cultural event, that if he forbade broadcasting, he would commit cultural barbarism, because the presence of a man in the moon exceeds cultural and idealogical boundaries , but if Brezhnev officially asked him not to broadcast, he would of course agree, but he knew that the Kremlin would not send him such recommendations because the Soviets would deny their own narrative that the Eastern Bloc and Comecon were fully independent states: D
But a year later, Mr. Gomułka lost the post of Gensek (secretary general) of the communist party in Poland :-) -
Val go to her first and also my kerbal first ever spaceflight,
off course Jeb was furious because The fact that girlies should not in go suborbital because and is a fact of our kerbalkind social order. It may be undesirable " but in deep-down he felt admiration and some unprofessional feeling to new research test pilot Valentina Kerman
Vals go into space "accidently" during testing new SRB and decuplers

Yep! Although I think you're referring to Gemini 6/7, BTW... Just me being a nitpick! Overall though, that's well executed!
Of course it was Gemini 6/7 my mistake.

I’m going to assume that means “where should it be”, and idk, probably KSP Discussion or smthin. Although, I cannot lie that that’s a pretty cool looking mission.
Thanks :-)
I wanted re-create Gemini 6/9 missions

I tried Rosetta mission from the new ESA mission pack. I tried to plot it's course using Duna(mars) as gravity assist but forget how to do it :-(

Nice!
(why is this in fanworks)
And where it should be?

@Pawelk198604 IIRC you can right click on your RCS thrusters and turn on 'Fore by Throttle'. I believe you could set it to an action group so that you don't have your RCS thrusters firing constantly during launch, for example.
I wonder how much dv would be need if use second stage to rise perigee just little above ground to make it hit Earth oh i mean Kerbin off course while apogee is 250 km?
does it would be just enough to rise perigee to make orbit circular, the spacecraft have separatron as retro.
-
I did not play the game for long time so i forgot some stuff :-)
To make long story short i wonder how make my RCS to be used as main engine, because using second stage during rendezvous is terrible inconvenient?
Does MechJeb would utilize RCS as main propulsion?

The definition of wasted development time...
Exactly, so why did you propose this idea in the first place?
Also, that "only to us" thingy assumes you guys have some sort of merit coming from the fact you brought the game.
I mean something like merit badges in Life is Strange 2 for player who played in original Life is Strange.

Don't think so.
You paid less then, some of you didn't have to pay for the dlcs, and now you want to get another discount. I'm trying to find fitting word for that but my thoughts orbit around "greedy". Because that's what it looks like. You got your discount, that's more than enough, especially when you got thousands hours of entertainment more than the others. It's not like it was continuous support, like let's say a monthly fee on patreon or something like that. You got more for less basically three times already.
K, I'm done.
No, I'm not, I'm going even further: YOU, "veteran players" are people who should pay full price for the new game to show that you appreciated the fact that this franchise, from simple space game for few cents in alpha stage, went to the point where it got a sequel.
Ugh.
Maybe it sounds a bit like "greed", but does the player who supported the series at the very beginning deserve a little bit more, if not a few percent discount, though some elite dlc, available only to us, even if it would not contribute anything to the game, or some virtual astronaut badge styled to be the badge of the first Soviet codmonauts or Mercury 7 astronauts

does is work for current version of game?

Veteran players are already the ones that paid less to have more time with the game.
Did you envy us?

Side not i forgot to install heat shield but Jeb somehow survived reentry, with total be accident is very similar to real spaceflight that inspired mine
-
as above :-)

I'd say almost certainly not. There would be no point investing a large amount of money developing a new game if all the existing players would get it for free.
But it would be cool if they at least give some limited discount for veteran player, those who invest their mony before original KSP become even a thing, i think 25%-50% would be cool ;-)

Wll first real flight and decpuler test
And Jeb first Orbital flight in this game

I don't really see the problem here. If you're a minor then knowing where you are at all times is actually good parenting. If you're an adult then buy your own phone.
Insofar as tracking teenagers under 18 years of age may seem reasonable but creepy idea of crappy parents, tracking the college age kids, who are not actually kids anymore, is crossing border of creepiness very much, it's like 1984 or Truman show!

Yeah, civilian GPS is limited to 1000kts and 18km.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinating_Committee_for_Multilateral_Export_Controls
CoCom i see i heard about it, it's a bit lame because it would cool opportunity to make fun on overprotective parents or employers that like to micromanage their employees

If you get too high or too fast the GPS will shut down (so that they can't be used for missile guidance).
I guess that's one way to stop people tracking you.
So it's kind of American(pentagon) protection against using GPS for military purpose other than their own ? ;-)
-
My mother was also a little overprotective, but in my case it was justified because I was a little sick when I was little.
Now there is such an application "it is called life 360" for overprotective parents, in my opinion it is Orvelism in its pure form. Apparently in America, some parents forcing it for installing even their adult children, making it a condition of further financial support at the University, in my country Poland universities are mostly free, that is not quite, they are financed from taxes, i.e. also from parents regardless of whether they wish it or not ;-)
But returning to the subject, I have such a thought experiment, I thought what would happen if a child of such overprotective parents, which forced him to walk with the GPS tracker turned on, put such a device in a space rocket, For example, to Falcon 9, and such a thing was sent in space.
I wonder how such overprotective nerds would react so that they would see that their child was moving at a speed of 27570 km / s at an altitude of 300 km
Or, in the cheaper version, insert such a GPS meter into a meteorological balloon or an unmanned drone -

This, and no back in the 60s it was no GUI, if lucky you could change who dataset to show. Design stayed as it worked, however guess SpaceX does it much more in software. However switches tend to be faster for an trained operator.
For ships you also have lots of overrides, you don't want to relay on software as only arming of an close in weapon system who can fire automatically at close targets.
Also various overrides if something fails, this is also true in industry. Worked one place they had an robotic pallet warehouse for books, some stuff fell off the pallet and the operator stopped the crane with software and went down to pick up the books.
Some other thought the stopped crane was an bug and reset it, correct procedure was to remove the key powering the crane, yes he managed to run to safety.
However the big projector screen still looks cool. Guess that one is replaced with an modern projector setup however.
But all those Apollo looks like GUI.

That why Soviet bankrupt? In Poland people remembered that NASA had enough decency to congratulate soviet their feats, while Russians not replied in kind.

I'm guy and a gay too ;-)
[snip] but also felt that women not get enough influence in early space exploration, good we have at least Valentina Tereshkova and her KSP counterpart Val Kerman, so girls and women might have the same kind of dream, like we boys and guys have ;-)
