Mary Sherman Morgan The U.S. rocket fuel scientist credited with the invention of the liquid fuel Hydyne in 1957, which powered the Jupiter-C rocket that boosted the United States' first satellite, Explorer 1.

Jennifer Cole Chief of the Aerodynamics and Propulsion Branch at NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, California.

I believe Thor LP used (and killed) all of them in Insane rockets division on youtube:
-
I believe DARPA is working on a project similar to this.

You can't do that because you aren't married to them. The closest you could do would be to seek legal emancipation (or whatever the equivalent in Australia is) but you have to be 16 or older (in the USA) to do that. If you did that you wouldn't have any claim on the room, and your parents could legally kick you out if you didn't pay rent.

Solution: Sue your parents for divorce and claim your room for yourself. Use the window for ingress/egress. Profit.

Dr Jill Tarter - Founding member of SETI (with Thomas Pierson). Dr Tarter was the inspiration for Jodie Foster's character in the film "Contact". She is also credited with coining the term "brown dwarf" for the classification of stars with insufficient mass to sustain hydrogen fusion.
-
Linda A. Morabito - She discovered volcanic activity on Io during Voyager 1's flyby. This was the first time in history that active volcanism was detected outside Earth. Her discovery is considered by some planetary scientists as the largest discovery of the planetary exploration program that has come out of Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

White Cliffs Solar Plant (Australia's 1st solar generation facility) worked on the same principal.

I doubt I'm the first one to say this, but this needs to be a movie.
Not a good movie either, mind you. I'm thinking a super low-budget ScyFy original, somewhere around the quality of Sharknado. Or those awful parody movies...
The Nigerian....

You could try the method outlined here.
-
I use the scansat mod to scan biomes of any body I intend to land on and then select a landing site near multiple biomes. You can usually land near the boundary of three biomes if you select your landing zone carefully.

Lol. The title of this challenge made me wonder what it was aboot.

The game is all about learning. Many players use mods like Kerbal engineer redux for more information in the VAB. KER gives you the delta V and thrust to weight of each stage (for any body in the Kerbol system) in your rocket and makes it much easier to build cost effective and efficient designs.
-
KSP does not teach the difficulties involved with fuels. It would be interesting to deal with cryogenics and boil-off.
-
Good work mate, so many kerbals to kill, so little time.

You can also watch the developers in action on twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/ksptv/profile

I think this could be feasible for preventing Kessler syndrome - use the tug to de-orbit a defunct satellite each launch.
-
I also agree
-
I think that Helium 3 mining on the moon is probably the most practical stuff we need and can get to.
-
Graphene is looking quite promising as a hydrogen filter among other very interesting qualities.
-
Hopefully no-one finds a Justin Beiber CD in 4000 years and thinks its the pinnacle of our society.
-
One small mod you might consider is Docking Port Alignment Indicator.
-
You can use the debug menu to enable unlimited fuel. Alt + F12 by default.
