8/8 It's a Kool Kerbal!

Interesting proposal. All we would have to do is reroute the micro-set turbo couplers to the reverse gear regulator and coat it with melotetramine gel to protect it from interactive tyium fluid.

Yes, a matrix would be required for the asdermatum to function safely without creating dangerously powerful adrium charges.

We are attempting to develop a technique for the troplification of meta-sporoid radiative alterjunctors, for use in the Turboencabulator, which does not require the use of expensive tridonomeradygen for combustion in the hyperbolic molecular tension chamber.

Yes, I think it's accurate to say our universe is the surface of a 4-dimensional...thing. Think of the rubber sheet analogy used to describe gravity. Our universe is a 3D 'rubber' sheet, warped by massive objects causing things like gravitational lensing and time dilation. We don't know exactly what shape it is though. There are also many theories that there are higher dimensions tightly rolled up on a very small scale, like how where you might see a telephone wire from far away you would percieve it as a line, whereas an ant crawling on its surface would perceive it as a 2-dimensional cylinder, while an even smaller creature might see that it is really made up of lots and lots of tiny cylinders coiled up together. It's like how a piece of paper has width, although that doesn't become important except when you stack a lot of paper together, or when you have to peel it off some other surface, grabbing onto the tiny edge. I don't think we could feasibly visit 4-dimensional space. First off, we don't know how to make anything leave the universe. It would cause some issues with the laws of thermodynamics. Second off, you would die. A space suit wouldn't help, because it doesn't protect you from the extra freedom of motion. All your blood would literally fall out. Think of a flatlander. He has blood running in 2D veins. If you were to pull him into 3D space without sandwiching him between two protective flat plates first, his blood would fall out from the extra dimension. The same would happen to you if you tried to leave our universe. It'd be like trying to contain water in a rubber band.

Currently I think the temperature only varies with atmospheric altitude. In space, you get SCIENCE!!! for certain different situations, but it only displays **IN VACUUM!** While it is technically impossible to measure the temperature of nothing, the solar radiation should heat up the thermometer by a certain amount. This might require the thermometer to recognize when it is in shadow, but that shouldn't be too hard as the solar panels already do this. I agree that it would be much more realistic to have different temperatures based on time of day and latitude. In real life, the temperature on the Moon can be upwards of 100 degrees during the day, and below -170 degrees at night due to the lack of atmosphere to regulate temperatures globally. On Mars I expect it has a similar effect because there's not much atmosphere to transfer heat.

Kerbals don't need to be paid, they get to be astronauts! What more could they ask for?

<non-cuber> "Hey, did you know Justin Bieber can solve one of those in like five minutes?" <me> "JUSTIN BIEBER IS AWFUL AT RUBIK'S CUBE! PEOPLE THINK HE'S GOOD JUST BECAUSE HE'S FAMOUS!" This actually happened the other day, I freaked out at someone because they were impressed at his speed.

Yes, I was going to wait a good long time to make sure I had fallen asleep properly before starting to try to interact with the dream. Unfortunately I was interrupted by the alarm... While I was doing it I noticed two voices arguing over...something, I guess. I think it was whether or not I was asleep. I was pretty certain I wasn't, so I continued moving my finger, although I probably was asleep at that point. When the alarm went off it was annoying because I was paralyzed and couldn't do anything for several seconds. I tried again last night, and I think I came pretty close but as I was falling asleep I could feel my body becoming paralyzed so I stopped because the feeling weirded me out. I tried again but didn't manage it.

A negative-charge pastium plate would be installed that would repel the negative gravioli particles away from where they would interfere with the quantum binary neobender. Your idea for an emergency shut-down would also greatly enhance the safety of the incapacitor, so I recommend that it is added to the design anyways, possibly in conjuction with the mirror-triploid-wavelength converter where it would fit between the microwave clock-pincer and the alternating doplad asdermatum.

Yes, as mentioned in the OP radiation is not a problem. The moon sure has a lot of interesting places, doesn't it?

Brilliant! This will deflux the boron vibrating photon tubes, allowing for reactance in the rotary pentatoroid plasma sphere! So many new applications will be opened up by this wonderful insight!

A way to fix this would be to make it so that the SAS generates less and less torque as it approaches the destination node, just like it already does for the 'hold attitude' mode. I think the code is different for the other modes, and that should be changed so that all SAS modes are treated in the same way by the game. Seems like a fairly simple fix, all that would be necessary is for the reaction wheels to generate less torque when approaching the destination orientation instead of going at full power right past it, causing all the jiggliness.

Hmm, I would like to visit a lot of places. Here's a list, kind of like the KSP tourist contract objective list, but way harder: -Orbit the Moon (Earthrise!) -Visit a Moon-Arch (wait, Earth's moon doesn't have any easter eggs...) -Hike down Nilokeras Scopulus on Mars (at the edge of Kasei Valles, the giant riverbed) -Maybe Valles Marineris (to watch the sunset, compare it to sunset at the Grand Canyon) -Olympus Mons (to see what it looks like up there) -Pol Phobos (fun low gravity, great view of Mars) -Submarine in Europa's mantle (looking for little alien squOH GOD THAT ONE'S NOT LITTLE *unintelligible* -Orbit Io, and maybe land too (it looks cool, but I'm not sure I want to get too close to all that volcanism) -Amalthea (Jupiter's bands would fill the sky) -Titan (flying, and also submarining in those lakes looking for alien creatures) -Miranda (those weird ridges are cool, plus Uranus in the sky) -Pluto and Charon (binary and interesting geology) -Earth (Man, that planet has like literally everything!) Ok, I guess I could pass on Olympus Mons, Miranda, Pluto, Charon, Europa, and Phobos if I still get to visit Amalthea. If I had to pick one, I'd probably go for Io and land there (on the Jupiter-facing side of course!) The disc would fill a huge portion of the sky, and the bands and storms would look absolutely astounding. I would stay there long enough to watch Io's shadow pass over Jupiter, which happens once every 30 hours or so. I'd bring a telescope to look at Jupiter, the Galilean moons, and lots of other small Jovian moons. I'd also look at Earth and the Moon, Mars, Venus, and Saturn.

Interesting. An actual, scientific study of intentional lithobraking techniques.

It may be illegal to the illuminati-lizard people-FBI-alien overlords that control our minds, trying to prevent us from having such free thought as we do in this type of dream...

I think I did it! I used the finger motion trick @Aperture Science posted, and by focusing on the motion I could feel myself falling asleep. I was almost there when my alarm clock went off. Unfortunately, by that time I was already asleep physically so I couldn't get up. I tried waiting a few seconds to wake up more, and then I was able to get up and press the button. But the noise didn't stop because I had dreamt that I turned it off. After that I was able to get up in real life. Confusing!

Kerbal Jool Program: All planets are replaced with Jool. You must take off from Jool, orbit Jool, go to Jool, land on Jool, come back from Jool, and reenter Jool's atmosphere. All the planets orbit a giant version of Jool that emits green light to illuminate all the planets. The planets are: Jool (has no moons, hard to get to) Jool (has one eccentric moon called Jool) Jool (has two moons, Jool and Jool) Jool (has one moon, Jool) Jool (This one is boring, don't waste your time with it) Jool (Has five moons: Jool, Jool, Jool, Jool, and Jool. There is a famous challenge involving landing on all five of Jool's moons and returning safely to Jool.) Jool (was supposed to become a moon of the proposed seventh planet Jool, which seems to be collecting dust right now)

Kerbal Alarming Clock +: An extension for Kerbal Alarming Clock that makes the alarm happen a random amount of time after the event. Alarming Kerbal Clock: Instead of KSP, the game now shows a picture of a clock with Kerbal faces for hands. They all stare at you in a rather alarming way. The 'tick' sound it makes is the sound of a rocket engine flaming out.

So, I was able to land that plane I made the other day by using a very, very shallow reentry, then firing the aerospike upwards to stay at high altitude, then flailing around wildly during the most intense part to slow down more. Here are some pics:

Use it to launch itself from Gilly!

I put a ridiculously large number of plasma guns around the base of the snow-capped mountain in the background of @Matuchkin's desert picture. They will fire at anyone they see. I build a house on the mountain, and a nice little observatory. My snow-capped mountain and telescopes.
