Well regardless of how long the technology has existed, you should probably test whether the version you have made works, which seems to be what they are doing in the video.

Unless I am mistaken, the video shows a test of the propulsion system.

True, but my point is that we shouldn't dismiss the possibility of them being on time merely because no-one has built a probe in such a short amount of time.

"Give me one example of a space probe with decent capability that was built from concept to launch in only 2 years." There's a first for everything. I doubt there was one example of a successful manned moon landing before Apollo 11.

Not every game is like that, but then there is no game like Kerbal Space Program. (At least, none I'm aware of)

Except I doubt there are very many (if any) fields which don't have some sort of recognition system in place. Take it up with the government, it's them who decide where your taxes go to, not Musk.

@Darnok Just a quick response to a few things: deGrasse Tyson is a science communicator, so he gets people interested in science/explains science to non-experts. Of course Musk wants more money. Thats what a company runs on, isn't it? And he owns a certain company that I think we would all hate to see fail. As for prizes and awards in science, it's certainly possible that they cause corruption and falsified results, but they can also motivate scientists to explore previously ignored topics.

Out of curiosity, how expensive is this?

In addition to the previously mentioned mod, I think a SQUAD employee has mentioned that setting UI size to 80 percent fixes it. I might be wrong though.

This is what Superman would do.

I'm a bit late, but.. Hooray! 1.1 is out!

1. All deaths are permanent, except for the original 4, those you can file edit back in. All deaths will be commemorated with a flag planted next to the Astronaut Complex. 2. No part clipping mission essential parts (RTGs, science experiments, fuel, etc.). Other than that, anything is allowed if it looks cool. 3. Resist the temptation to install just one more mod.

It's not really a PR disaster. SQUAD has hundreds of thousands, if not millions of buyers. The people who follow what SQUAD does (us) number at a few thousand, maybe a bit more. Assuming all others don't look in the Betas tab of steam (and I think that's a safe assumption), very few outside of this community will know about this.

I would assume 2016 US would have an easier time making Mexico pay for that wall, what with its superior firepower and all that.

By the way, lets have a round of applause for SpaceX and their successful landing!
