  1. Close but no cigar. I'm human though. A video game character.
  2. I was talking about extinct species in general...
  3. 2175- Human seed ship lands on Earth, restarting humanity
  4. 926- Kama enters system... 928- Andromeda rendezvous with Kama... 1000- Kama leaves system...
  5. I use Sheila to kill Tex. Rod from The Gods on next poster.
  6. The ones that you flip upside many last don't. Or did they fix that? It's like a one way fuel line.
  7. Cloning extinct species is a generally bad idea. The world is so different than it was back then. It might require a complete habitat recreation in a pressurized volume, but that's a worst-case scenario. It should be decent... But predator protection ( IE Humans) would be a must have. A custom built reserve is a good idea.
  8. If the primary is giving off enough light, then any orbit won't be in its shadow.
  9. It's interesting. I would like this future to happen, although I don't know about random words floating through space....
  10. What about the Lazarus Missions, they said one Ranger per astronaut... Although they could have used a transfer stage.
  11. It is big for an upper stage engine... Maybe a smaller one similar to the Skipper but with a 3.75 meter attachment point. Or just add an upside down adapter that can run fuel too.
  12. If you had a Gas Core Reactor, easy. But without one.... Good luck. Maybe with LV-Ns for the final boost, capable of SSTO on all bodies except Tylo ( can orbit with solid boosters, and not Eve or Jool, either), and in flight refueling of the ship ( really smart idea...) it could be done.
  13. Well, it has Chris Pratt in it. I have to see the movie now. And, why don't we learn from the past?!!! At all!!!?? In every single series?!!
  14. Isn't it called Dark because it doesn't interact in many ways? Except for gravitationally, right?
  15. Never said it would be easy or smooth.
  16. 10/10 Reminds me of Lockheed.
  17. 5/10 - I don't know what it's about!
  18. I'm sure that it can happen, just look at the KSP Community Cubesat project. You just need to get this off the ground and get enough community members to help out. Okay, maybe not "just need to", but that would be a good start. Maybe it'll become a megathread? EDIT: Divide the game development into steps that add up to your final goal, you want to build a foundation to work on first, not the whole skyscraper End EDIT anyways, good luck.
  19. I wouldn't say it lost deltav, just that it used it inefficiently.
  20. Well, the size (digitally) of a 3d model isn't really determined by the number of polygons. It's determined by how much it takes to represent those polygons. So, if SQUAD could figure out how, they could possibly lower RAM requirements for the current parts. Then, and only then, we can consider 5 meter parts. Other than that, yes. Eventually there is going to be a lot of planets, and to keep part-count low for huge ships going to GP-3 or ( crosses fingers) 4, it's a must-have. Also, I think it's a better idea to make the 3.75 meter parts have slightly better mass ratios, and then the 5 meter parts could have even bigger ( but not by much) mass ratios.
  21. OP, that's not how gravity works. Just because Miller has 1.3g at the surface doesn't mean it has 1.3 Earth Masses.
