  1. Gongratulations stanz25! Make sure to get a fancy domed display case for it too.
  2. So, you never tried the "Six Words" at your job? https://xkcd.com/1244/
  3. My Girlfriend is busy typing half of these lines right now. HAHAHAha haha ha ... I'm so lonely.
  4. Quite the contrary, my friend. It's just the mere gigantomatic Hugeness of the universe that makes an alien encounter "very" unlikely. See, the universe is about 14 billion years old. In this frame, the whole existence of the Homo Sapiens is nothing more than a blink and if the Doomsday Argument is somewhat correct, we will probably go extinct in about 800 years. Even with our radiation expanding at the speed of light, this timeframe is just too short for anybody outthere noticing us in time (even assuming they are pointing their ears in our direction and still have this ancient tech around to receive our "messages"). Please take note that I didn't say that we will not find alien life somewhere eventually. It depends on what you are looking for. Bacteria? Yes, definitely! Plants, algae? For sure. Low lifeforms like small animals? Well, maybe. But intelligent, civilised Beeings, who are neither way less nor far far far more advanced compared to us? I highly doubt that, sir. Think of it like Ants trying to communicate with humans... for us beeing the ants, of course. Aliens who happen to be in the perfect state of development in order to communicate with us, flying around in spaceships, not only in the LaniakeaSupercluster, but in our local galaxy group, trough the milkyway, right into our solar neighborhood? -there you got me, rolling my eyes.
  5. *Raises Tetra Pak of cheap Cuvée* Thank you guys for two absolutely awesome years. May many more follow.
  6. This is both, nationalistic and neo-liberal nonsense. Our latest Achievements were only possible due to cooperation, not competition. Take a look at the LHC for example, with its international science community. Or at the Curiosity Rover on Mars, which could have had parachutes made of dozens of different flags (ChemCams from France and USA, weather monitors from Spain and Finland, Laz0rs from Germany, water-sniffer from Russia, et cetera). Take a trip to Cadarache in France, where the EU, China, Russia, India, Japan, South Korea and the US are building worlds biggest Fusion Reactor ITER right now as we speak. The only thing you would achieve by splitting the space community into countries/agencies again, is regression in funds and brains as well as taking a higher overall risk by rushing things for the sake of beeing "first!!!11lmao". Don't get me wrong, though. The Apollo program was a legendary success, but the price it came with was too damn high. (And no, i'm not speaking of money.) btw. alien spaceships? seriously?
  7. Ksp mainpage is down due to "maintenance". The Hypetrain is about to crash into its final destination like a ton of Ununocticum hitting the wall of a Hadron Collider with a phononic frequency of over 9000 GHz!
  8. As if i wasn't hyped enough for 1.0, this definitively kicked me over the edge more than a big bucket of coffee. Good luck to everyone and thank you guys for beeing awesome!
  9. imho the concept of basing your video length on the potentially "attention-span" of the "average" user is the wrong approach. i think the length should depend on which style you prefer, what you want to present in your videos and above all, what you want to achieve with your videos. For example: Danny2462 makes a lot of speedup-silly-comedy-fun-thingies and therefore does very well with "less than 10 minutes" Scott Manley on the other hand does a lot of Tutorials where he actually shows how to build something that is working as intended. And this, ofcourse, can't be done in a few minutes. Zisteau is somewhere in between by the style meaning he is balancing on the sillines/seriousness-ratio. He cuts out the whole buildingprocess but then pulls you through large missions with a smirk on his face for up to one hour. long story short. Just find out what you want to show, how you want to express it and then go with whatever time it needs and you will be fine.
  10. This is really awesome! A little bit too noisy though, but still pretty awesome.
  11. Thanks for the feedback. Well, kerban scientists discovered that this space station is in fact a very spacy station with a lot of space and therefore decided to refer to it as spacestation. Another, but excessively far-fetched explanation could be an odd typographical error.
  12. Had to learn about InDesign for UAS-reasons and decided to go for a KSP-themed flyer. Hope you guys like it. PDF-File: http://www.file-upload.net/download-9189921/Flyer_Final.pdf.html
