  1. Here is my entry with the Valkyrie Mk-I (even though i saved it as ssto)
  2. can we use hyperedit to land/send a vehicle to the desired planet? i am thinking of doing this challenge
  3. there should also be an option keep both cockpits, i like both of them
  4. question. do i have to send the lander at eve from kerbin or can i hyperedit it to eve orbit? Also how much dV is repuired to eve orbit with 1.0.4? haven't played ksp for a long time and i haven't updated the dv maps i have
  5. I hope there is space at that wall of yours. Completed it at had mode
  6. awesome how the story progresses kuzzter, on a side note when you update the duna story pls enetr a link at this thread so ppl can keep up on both stories
  7. i am attemptung this challenge and i am 3/4 away from finishing it. It is a real challenge to make a rocket with 18t/30 parts but it's a lot of fun. A question though in order to get to Minmus form Kerbin at which point do i need to burn, when i see it rising form the horizon?
  8. This...needs...to become...a challenge for ksp players!!!
  9. Thanx for the compliments guys, and no i don't use the Hubble Sapce Telescope for my photos it is the result of experience, relative dark skies along with a good photographic setup and lots of exposure times. A new photo i took the past days. M20 the Trifid Nebula
  10. The features of pluto per xkcd.com
  11. pfft 2.3R you suck that's nothing to what i have where i live, a 3R is the standard every couple of weeks. Last year a 5.8R earthquake hit with the epicenter a few km from where i live and its acceleration was equal to 7R earthquake (from what various scientists told at the media) a week later a second 5.6 earthquake hit at 5:00 in the morning. Many buildings were damaged but no casualties.
  12. Where i live this summer so far it's been colder and wetter than usual, we had a downpour last Monday and heat started to be above 30C since Saturday
  13. Jokes aside can you provide a link with the full resolution of the image? Is it yours? Since i am an astrophotographer and have many hours of astrophotography under my belt with various problems and challenges that an astrophotography has i can give you a few suggestions. 1) bad calibration of the image, not likely since the picture would have many errors not one. 2) bad preorcessing of the image (stacking of images and noise removal algorithms) 3) something bad happened during the proccesing of the image 4) The most likely scenario is that it is a geostationary sattelite track that did not go away during preprosseing/processing of the image. The area of orion's belt has many geostationary satellites and i have captured myself some in my early days of astrophotography at M42 and at the horsehead nembula (actually at the horsehead nebula there is a satelite that passes at the same time, good thing that i can get rid off it at preproccesing) 5) if it is not yours someone may have painted a line at the image which is also very likely since the image is of high quality capture and proccesing and would not justify that error said image with satelite track at the right
  14. make sure to store the photos at loseless format eg. tiff, bmp or even raw... if your camera can store the photo at both formats (tiff and raw) even better, later at processing you can have a wider range to process.
  15. I will have to agree with xacktar. There is more to life than computer games and KSP. Devote extra time to your spouse do things together and don't let those pesky immigration people get to you, the final victory over them will be more satisfying. I am also taking a long break from computer games (have not played KSP since it hit 0.90) and concentrate on other real life things, for me the most important thing the last 2 months is my final preparation for a mountain marathon at the end of July, fun fact physical activity and especially running can lower depression levels, as mentioned go for a walk at a park and if possible a daily excursion at nature will boost your morale and your mood. You can also read a book, it will take your mind of from things for while. The most important thing right now is not to let depression get any worse, close any TV you have and don't listen to any news, they can hit you real bad, an alternative is to start a garden (even better if it is a vegetable garden the feeling of satisfaction will take away the depression). Take your time until you mentally feel much better and then start playing games/KSP they are not going anywhere they are meant to be fun and not stressful and you you will have the challenge of getting to remember of how you did things the last time you played those games
  16. I use an RC8'' on an HEQ5 Pro mount or a skywatcher ED 80 for deep sky imaging along with a cooled CCD camera, for planetary imaging or obsering i use a skywatcher dob 8". I live at a a Rural/suburban transition area so i can easily photograpnh many DSO's once the wheather allows it. Here are some photos i have taken over the years M42 The Horsehead Nebula Veil nebula Saturn Mars Jupiter M106 Milky Way Panorama NGC7635 The Bubble Nebula M16 The Eagle Nebula M13 Venus Jupiter Animation Jupiter Animation and here are more pictures i have taken http://www.astrobin.com/users/kookoo_gr/ - - - Updated - - - For those that want to start observing the night sky with their eyes or any other optic device a good program to use is Stellarium. It's a free planetarium program and once you enter the coordinates of the observing site you can have an idea of what to expect to see at various hours of the night.
  17. 1256: you look at the time and rush for the next floor
  18. Here are some pics of the Moon with my scope http://www.astrobin.com/95392/0/ http://www.astrobin.com/94325/0/ http://www.astrobin.com/15655/0/
  19. Any landing you can walk away is a good landing Gilly is space potato (someone's sig) I made it back from Tylo. Also the badges form the jool-5 and the eve rocks challenge would be nice for bumper stickers/t-shirts
  20. i beleive there is a mod that allows the control of multiple ships or kerbals at the same time, can't remember the name though.
  21. great video. now do the second trailer of the movie
  22. as for hyperedit of course it should be banned while on the challenge but for the build phase i would suggest its use in order to test landers.
