Spaceception

Squeals like a little girl

Yeah, IMO, these days, manned missions are only good for colonization

Evacuate Earth And I'm not trying to make it similar, for one thing, they have a lot less time to build the ship, and for another it has more sci-fi elements to it and for anotherother, THE CREW IS CHOSEN PROPERLY, wait was I yelling? Sorry, but when I saw that elderly people were getting on the ship, It lost any respect I had for it. YOU DON"T PUT OLD PEOPLE ON A SHIP DESIGNED TO SAVE HUMANITY!! THEY CAN"T REPRODUCE!! Again, sorry, got emotional for a sec.

HYPPEDY HYPE HYPE

Hahahaha That was the best, here, have a rep

Tips pls?

Do it in the water, and mountains, and in space. I won't be able to reply to you for a couple of hours, I have to get off now

Also @alpha tech Make sure you read this article http://waitbutwhy.com/2015/08/how-and-why-spacex-will-colonize-mars.html

No, go to sandbox, career mode SUCKS in the demo! Also, some things to add, RCS isn't needed on the assent with practice, I've been able to get to orbit just fine without RCS on the way up (You probably already know this) Make sure you burn sideways when you're 75-90,000 meters up.

This thread may interest you

You're playing the Demo now, I presume? I've been playing for awhile now, and I've been able to land on the Mun/Minmus without gimbling engines/control surface fins, but here's what you want to make for an orbital rocket: 1 Command pods work best in terms of control, just make sure you have a pilot 2 Have RCS, I do 6 RCS ports and 4 fuel tanks, that suits me well, and if I'm smart on a Munar mission, I'll still have some when I land 3 If you put boosters (Liquid or solid) on the side, only use up to 6, so you have a place to put the fins on the core stage, and you have control, also put them on the boosters themselves so you have more control 4 If you do have liquid side boosters, here's what the layout of your first stage/boosters should be: The core stage should have 6 of the bigger fuel tanks, and the side boosters should have 5 1/2 fuel tanks, with fuel lines running from the boosters to the core stage (Make sure that there are decouplers, so that when the side boosters go out, you can get rid of them, once separated, your core stage will go from near empty to full), that setup should easily get the spacecraft to space, and almost to orbit 5 The second stage should have 3 1/2 fuel tanks, and that should have enough fuel to get into orbit and come back 6 When you're ready to take off, have the throttle to 60%, and begin the gravity turn (Very slightly) when you're 350 meters high and when the boosters are almost empty, max the thrust, and keep it there 7 When you're going up, keep an eye on the map view (After you're above 25,000 meters however) and once your Apoapsis is 75-90,000 meters, turn the engines off, and cruise to the Apopasis, when you're 25 seconds from the Apoapsis, turn the engines on full, as soon as the core stage is out of fuel, press space to start the second stage (You will have to press it twice, once to get rid of the core stage, and another to get rid of the decoupler, which will also expose the engine. You're safely in orbit when you have a speed of between 2200-2300 m/s 8 Practice, it took me 3 hours to get into (Elliptical, very low) orbit

it's gone now, at lest on the comment I'm quoting you on, but your comment before still has it. No, I can do that Thanks though.

I think Bill changed it, so I just went with it, it was originally "A local university" or something along those lines Also, that pale blue thing is over your text, I think it may be a bug.

Alright, I'll use that for the rest of the chapters, make it more compact, I imagine that was what you were going for

Oh, what was the font/size?

I guess not, what was the text?

i dunno.

Guess it's time to bring this video up again

So.. make the text smaller? EDIT: Oh hey, we're on page 8 now!

Probably cars, most energy is lost due to overcoming friction, Or fossil fuel plants.

I know, that's why I put this in:

Hot diggity!! I haven't made a forum post here in so long it's almost scary! The Nova rocket is personally my favorite rocket concept of all time, it was the original concept for a Moon rocket, which would've done a direct assent Lunar transfer, it also would've have a thrust of almost 12,000,000 lbs!!! For comparison, the Block II SLS would have a measly 9,200,000 lbs thrust Unfortunately, pressure to beat the soviets to the Moon by 1970, and the size of it, made it hard to pass, and by 1964 it was completely cancelled in favor of the smaller Saturn V. However, it's bigger brother would've made Mars exploration a real possibility in the late 1970s, and early 1980s, and it's thrust would've been almost 14,000,000 lbs. I mean, the POWER of it!

Update! I've laid out the rough ground work for each of the 14 chapters, this is what they'll (Roughly) be; The second chapter will easily be the longest (You know what it's called, so you know exactly why). The second to last chapter will be the second longest (For good reason ) The last chapter will be the shortest (Don't open if you want a surprise) If you opened it and not sure why it's a surprise, you'll find out

No

If you listen closely, it sounds like hype
