Does Anybody know the thrust of the ATV engines in Kn?? I need it for my Homework project.

Right on it!! hoping for non-scrubbed, clean launch!!

A political stunt?? I think that NASA is incredibly serious about getting Orion up and running. After all, now that they've brought in ESA to provide the service module, it would be political madness to step out. The SLS... I believe we are needing a heavy lifter design that doesn't need to be outsourced from SpaceX and others. After all, if NASA pull out of this, there will be a lot of questions asked within the government about why they are left without even their own launcher for another 6-7 years, and why they haven't met the goals of the Obama administration to develop a viable way to get to Mars. On top of that, it would be the second time in the last decade they'd pulled out of a new project. They've crossed the Rubicon with EFT-1, no backtracks.

While I respect their beliefs and why they would like some religious pictures to pray to in such a dangerous place, I will say that they should at least have a reminder of the bravery of Gagarin and how he put his life in the hands of untested technology in the name of science and the pioneering work of him and Korolev, whose effort got these astronauts to where they are right now.

Obsessed with ksp, you wouldn't mind making this a regular thing, would you? I'd give you rep!!

I'll just leave this here: Hmmmm.... How quickly?? Depends on the agency. I would say the only two with the drive to land on Mars are the Chinese and NASA, although Roscosmos may also want to, but it is unlikely as they have failed previous unmanned missions. The CNSA have not yet even landed on the moon, so a manned Mars mission would surely be unlikely for another 20-30 years. It's looking even more likely for NASA now, considering the Orion programme. So now let's consider Orion. It is currently scheduled for its first manned flight in 2021. It will get to an asteroid by 2023. By that quite ambitious timeline, I guess NASA are expecting to have Orion up and running by about 2025, which places Mars at 2026-2030 (launch windows and all that). However, this is just orbital missions at best. Manned landing missions will take a lot longer, so we're looking at another 7-10 years once Orion has completed its first Mars mission to develop the tech for decent orbital infrastructure ( I think NASA would be more careful this time around) so then Mars would be about 2038. I've probably overlooked a lot of stuff, but this is my estimate.

Nope. You often get people with multiple installs: Mods, more mods and then a stock install.

10/10 You're right!! *changes sig quickly*

10/10 Venerable.

The only Karting I do is with a fat italian plumber in a red jumpsuit!! It's a lot of fun.

Hop on the HypePlane or HypeShuttle!! It's only 25 kerbal snacks/ marks, and you can just walk to it (we haven't quite taken off yet)

You'd stuff your lovely kerbals into that tin can of a descent module?? You have less regard for your kerbals than Xacktar!! Am hyped for fuji mission module almost as much as 0.90!!

Gah. Too mainstream. Overfloater.

Find out next week on "Super Beale texture dev adventures!" Really good work, love it!! Can't wait for the mission module!! I see you've made it *slightly* bigger. Feeling sympathetic for your kerbals I guess!!

Not cancelled, scrubbed. It has been rescheduled.

The HypeShuttle is now ready to accept tickets for boarding!! Experimentals time!!

Stench. Characters.

I say, anyone for some premium tobacco and a stiff port down in the old Light Green Club?

I voted dinosaurs because... Roar!!! And the raptors: they'll eat me if I don't. P.s My address is 123 Houston Street, Enfield , Lazytown, Pakistan.

It isn't a coincidence this happened mere days after the release of MKIV Spaceplane parts: those models are beautiful!! Big shoutout to Nert: congrats!! *Cough Cough* ME *cough Cough*

10/10 Spinny spinny spinny....

Can you level up probe cores? I think not. I guess this is an incentive to use manned ships in career, and multiple traits for an incentive to use mk 1-2 and beyond!!

I'm guessing it's only for career: in Sandbox it would just be annoying. I personally am pleased by this: I have a hard time trying to keep my transfer burns locked on, and it will help for plane shifts. Altogether a well made system from what I've seen Squad: can help, but isn't major and game-changing! I am excited as to what the engineer an scientist will bring, I am hoping (completely wildly hoping) that engineer would do something for antenna efficiency: easily scriptable (I think) and a great addition. A scientist would give extra science.

Yup. Red Iron Crown.
