Supernovae Records

Every thought "Hey, has anyone managed to do this?" And in reality, your right, only for your world record to fade out of existence because you simply do not claim it? Well those days are now over! Supernova records will help monitor, record and store all world records in KSP, while also updating them when the challenge becomes available. These records will be split into two main categories, stock and modded. Modded has an advantage as one can simply mod a engine that has maximum fuel efficiency, maximum possible thrust and brilliant ISP, and then add super strong struts that can hold the most wobbly of craft together with relative ease. This is too ensure that world records broken by modded craft are KEPT AWAY from stock craft. With these categories come mini-categories, like SSTO records, weight records etc etc.  and So without further ado, lets begin!

Records

Stock

SSTO

Largest payload to stable LKO (70KM) using a stock SSTO - 2250 tons - Held by @Galacticvoyager

(More evidence is needed, for now the record will be held as a phantom record. A record with significant proof, despite being lower than this one, will be accepted and this record will be withheld. However, this is unless further proof can be developed.)

Freighters

Largest tonnage for a space freighter - 3738 tons - Held by @Galacticvoyager

Stations

Largest Space Station put into orbit around Laythe in a single launch - 100 tons - held by @Ultimate Steve

Here's two!

Largest Space Station put into orbit around Laythe in a single launch:

Sorry, I don't have the numbers right now, but it is probably >100 tons.

Number two: Most Kerbals landed on Minmus in a single launch:

916 Kerbals! (Although technically, I wasn't going to spend an hour hiring 916 Kerbals and I couldn't figure out how to turn autohire on, not that I trust autohire, so really there was only four on board. Maybe highest capacity and not actual number landed? :P)

You really shouldn't compete in your own challenge, that ruins the fun of it!

It doesn't actually, one of my records seemed to not have a lot of evidence to back it up when viewed from a normal person. This means it's a phantom record, and can be defeated by simply performing the challenge with significant evidence.

The freighter on the other hand has enough evidence.

Actually challenge submission rules *require* one to compete in you own challenge, or at least submit a true effort to achieve the challenge.

Ill add these records, however like my record, this will become a "phantom record". I suggest you PM me craft downloads for the two so I can check them, then the phantom records become true records.

I shall definitely have to remember this thread. I do a lot of things that seem fairly unique (mainly because quite often I design them to be unique), so perhaps I've broken some unusual records. I doubt I'll get things like the high mass or crew capacity; but probably something more specific like "largest number of modules transported to the Duna system on a single space freighter" (for which I think my record is 14 not including the freighter components but I don't think I kept records of that mission).

Or perhaps "largest number of independently-launched modules on a space station" would be an interesting one to keep track of.
