  1. That last one was actually a reference to a previous post on this thread, where I said misnumbering posts was a no-no while also misnumbering that post, hence the repetition.
  2. Dude, what alphabet are you using? Anyways, yay for the update! Now it's official (over 300 rep later )!
  3. 136: unnecessary repetition of bad forum jokes.
  4. Luke Kerman's life is about to change forever...Here's something I drew this morning. I wanted to do it for a long time, and today I thought "Why not now?" so I did it. *insert this* I tried to make it look as much like the original as possible, except with KSP parts. Here's the original for comparison:
  5. True, but while the VTOL is 'VTOLing' it has to maintain an impractically high thrust at low airspeed, making it a much less viable option than traditional horizontally-launching planes.
  6. The car is moving horizontally, so if you let go of the accelerator it will keep going for a while. A hovering VTOL will just drop if it does that, hence the extra design requirements.
  7. Ineption: Black Hat convinces a bunch of people to become terrible at their jobs, and widespread confusion ensues.
  8. Cool, I'll have to keep that in mind when I'm doing my next inclination changes.
  9. Some joke that originated on the Orbiter forums and spread here by way of the nerd-train. http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/hail-probe
  10. Driving usually wins, but not without a heck of a fight. Old house vs. This Old House.
  11. Banned for blurry avatar. I can't tell if that's a Space Shuttle, an SLS, a Delta IV, a Falcon 9...
  12. But when on the event horizon I'm travelling at nearly the speed of light so I barely feel anything before my sudden death. 6/10. I make everyone deathly allergic to chlorophyll. You can't eat or drink it or you'll die, and being near it causes your skin to burn terribly and you may also go blind for a short time.
  13. First result in "Visually Similar Images":
  14. Just replaced the Mars sunset one with the one it reminded me of every time:
  15. This chart shows the ideal phase angles for an efficient interplanetary transfer to any planet. The delta-V values on the bottom for atmospheric bodies are outdated; use this chart instead: For other planets, I'm not so sure, but if you have a calculator handy this might be of use, although it may be time-consuming: https://www.faa.gov/other_visit/aviation_industry/designees_delegations/designee_types/ame/media/Section III.4.1.5 Maneuvering in Space.pdf
  16. The navball shows your velocity relative to the target when in target mode. If you were to burn retrograde to 0 m/s you'd be stationary relative to the target. Click on the velocity indicator to set the navball relative to the parent body again.
  17. I thought that was an actual tiny planet until I saw the distortion on the plane.
  18. Why would it get you eaten? Looks good, is it edited from Kerbal Maps? Also, welcome!
  19. @Claw You know what other place on Kerbin is even flatter? The ocean.
