101+ reasons why we are not NASA

[M.Wolfy]

422: Our only constraints are our spacecrafts' Delta-V Budget, our computers, and our skill at flying (or availability of MechJeb).

423: We cannot keep track of what number we are on when replying in this thread

whoops, sorry

424. If a rocket explodes, we launch (and crash) it again to see where to put more struts.

[Kerbal01]

425: there is no such thing as bureaucracy

[TheBladeRoden]

426. We check internet forums for rocket building advice

427. Adding a single strut can result in accidentally dislodging your entire engine stack.

428. A little yellow tube can move infinite amounts of fuel per second

[Captain Sierra]

429. We spit at the laws of aerodynamics

430. Our astronauts don't need life support

431. We can launch half a space station at once

[NGTOne]

432. We don't ask "How much?", but "When?"

[Captain Sierra]

433. Don't have the right part? We can download a mod!

434. Can't find a mod with the right part? We can make one in an hour!

435- Flying a mission to the Mun just for the view is perfectly normal.

[astropapi1]

436- Don't have enough Dv for that huge kethane miner? Just add another layer of asparagus stages.

[THENEWJOEMAMA]

437- jeb lives!!!!

[astropapi1]

437- jeb lives!!!!

438- Chris Hadfield lives!!!!

439 - Despite having the entire population of Kerbin working in the space program, we can only pilot one ship at once. I hope you don't need that ore deposit readout for a few days, because we're off to the Mun...

440. It is perfectly fine to leave your kerbonauts in their craft on the pad for the right phase angle to occur.

441. An interplanetary mission can be conceived, constructed, within 24 hours of your last Mun mission.

442. Most people can achieve orbit, visit the Mun and Minmus, and start an interplanetary mission within the first month of their space program.

443. Instead of using complex math calculations, aerobraking is a guessing game and bets are placed between kerbonauts to see who got it the closest.

444. Many players can voyage to other planets, but can't circumnavigate kerbin.

[Xetalim]

445. We launch an interplanetary mission and when the interplanetary mission is waiting for the transfer window, we launch another interplanetary mission to an other planet.

[Djsnowboy267]

446. We forget to send the last ship in our interplanetary mission and force our kernels to wait another year in orbit for the transfer window

[Captain Sierra]

447. We burn nuclear engines in atmosphere without a second thought

448. We build SSTOs like it's nothing

449. Manned missions are easier than probe missions

[LeadMagnet]

450. In the digital world, everyone is an expert!

[Maxilica]

451. No maths needed, you've got mods for that!

[Captain Sierra]

452. When we use a flight computer (MechJeb) some people like to accuse us of cheating.

[ReptilianGameplays]

453. When we get stuck, one of the best options is HyperEdit!

[Captain Sierra]

454. Space shuttles are over-rated. We have Guppies! http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/showthread.php/49222-Holy-flying-fish%21-It-s-Guppies%21-Guppy-series-orbiters-from-SSI

[aceassasin]

455. We can fly to Duna and back completely on guesswork without a single calculation.

[Starwhip]

456. We intentionally ram satellites into buildings and nothing happens.

Current #1 reason that KSP is not like NASA:

I'm still able to play KSP...
