  1. My room's window is pointing west, and whenever it's a clear sky I just keep looking out my window till I see it. I can see it almost every clear day just before dusk.
  2. http://www.esa.int/Our_Activities/Space_Science/Rosetta/Rosetta_mission_extended Awesome! Looks like Rosetta will go to sleep next to her buddy!
  3. Definitely going to take some pictures during these days!
  4. Aaahw, what a cutie. My cat died about a year ago I'm also thinking of adopting a new kitten somewhere this next few weeks. I'm currently looking for work, as soon as I got something less temporary, I'm taking in a kitten.
  5. Cannot believe this one ain't been posted yet! The Spruce Goose, made of WOOD And not the weirdest, but certainly VERY, VERY, VERY Kerbal. (And one of my favorite aircrafts of all time) (Yes that is Neil Armstrong!)
  6. I suspect it is in the lensing since blue / orange hues are a very common (and pretty) color scheme http://www.slashfilm.com/orangeblue-contrast-in-movie-posters/
  7. While browsing this thread on Moon images I've decided to upload my own... While browsing my pictures I found this one. It is not the best image, but it has something peculiar that I've seen once before through a telescope. That weird blue hue on top and orange on the bottom. What is it? Sometimes when I look at the moon through a camera or telescope the Moon gives this weird dual colored glow.
  8. "thingamajig" Because it would sound awesome in the launch commentary!
  9. I love taking pictures of the Moon when it's almost full. That way you get to see lovely craters in the terminator line. I'll upload some pics I've made.
  10. Mini is actually one of the higest classifying type of car in the Dakar races.
  11. I did copy my save folder a couple of times onto a stick and took it to work. But this does not always work. There are the times leave from somewhere else to work or I leave in a hurry. (sometimes renters are to early or need more help than usual. I can't tell them to wait because KSP...)
  12. Heey KSP forums I work in a venue that also can be rented for private parties.during these parties I only have to be there to answer questions and to assist in case of a emergy. Meaning I have a lot of hours I don't have to do anything but play KSP and keep an eye on the people. Is there a way I can open a save at work and at home? So I can play a carreer mode in my free time and during my babysit shifts? Can I place a shortcut to a dropbox folder in the /saves folder both at home and at work? Or something like that?
  13. NASA has a email service that sends you E-mails / text messages that alert you when a visible pass is near your area. spotthestation.nasa.gov It works quite well I've seen the ISS about 20-30 times now thanks to the alerts.
  14. Oohh I still remember my first Lunar surface rendezvous. That also went a little bit to well
  15. Wet workshops are quite the engineering challenge, and I dont know if the pro's outweigh the cons. But I do know that it would be a perfect idea for new KSP parts.
  16. Math is a invention used to make physical things abstract. So we can work with them better. Thinks of this example. A school has a yearly outing. Students get to choose between three different trips. One survival, one cultural and one sailing. A teacher in the school keeps track of how many students choose for each camp and keeps the numbers in a chart. This chart is a conceptual representation of the choices and do not necessarily represent the students, you can't pick a student out of the chart. It is a clever way to represent something unrepresentative.
  17. I always do some roleplaying in my head when I perform certain actions. So I don't forget stuff like this. "Jeb, this is KSC. Stand by for time warp" "KSC, this is Jeb. standing by for pre warp check" "Panels pointed toward kerbol?" "Pointing panels toward kerbol" "Panels pointed towards Kerbol" "SAS, of??" "SAS off" "RCS off?" "RCS off" "Jeb, you are GO for time warp!" ""
  18. Feel ya bro! I was 'working' today, babysitting a bachelor party in the venue I work at. Guests where behaving perfectly and I had nothing to do but to make sure there was no fire. so I installed KSP on the computer in my office for a 'fun' KSP game.... Took me almost a hour to find and download all the mods that I wanted in my game! Cut my playing time in 1/3th... Ah well, was worth it
  19. On manned launches the rocket actualy gets blessed by a priest :
  20. The image file for the launch clamps has a picture of Clamps from Futurama hidden in it. You'll find him if you open the image in a editor (like Paint).
  21. Kerbal Alarm Clock. I don't know how chatterer works but I would like sounds made by the Kerbals / parts of the ship. Some radio sounds made by the antennas when sending data. Kerbal speak when you gather a crew reports (only when a scientist is on board though!)
  22. As a resident of the town Harderwijk in the Netherlands I frequently see the biggest man made object(?) ever. The Flevopolder. The Flevopolder now, Harderwijk is the biggest city on the mainland (with the big bridge towards the polder) This island was constructed up until 1968. Meaning the Space age already started. And I'd like to see images of the construction of the polder. The whole transition from sea, to a couple of dykes, to the island we have now. A few months ago I found a image repository of space to ground images made during the Gemini missions, these where amazingly sharp but I did not found any images of the Netherlands (I didn't really looked for that then though...). Can anyone here help me? (Note to mods : not sure about the board I should use, Science lab V.S. Space lounge, move this thread as you please )
  23. It''s the only problem we can't solve with engineering.
