The Raging Sandwich

No they are not going to colonize Mars in 30 years. Maybe... 40 or 50. Their ITS is too prone for failure. The Falcon 9s are proven to work well though. Hope the Falcon Heavy works well too. But sending 2 people around the Moon and back in such a short amount of time is going to end up killing somebody. The only reason people are only focusing on SpaceX is because NASA isn't doing anything. "NASA lacks the funding though!" No it doesn't, it just got a lot more funding. With it, a manned Mars mission could be done late next decade, but it won't.

May 9 1931: Vance Brand was born. He flew on Apollo ASTP, STS-5, STS-41-B, and STS-35. 1960: Mercury Pad Abort 1 was flown on a successful mission. The Mercury capsule was launched by the LES as propulsion to test the abort system. It also tested the parachutes and recovery. 1965: Luna 5 was launched. It was an attempted soft-landing mission on the Moon. During landing, the retro system failed letting the spacecraft impact the surface. 1971: Mariner 8 was launched on the joint mission with it and Mariner 9. The launch failed leaving Mariner 9 to have to complete all objectives of the spacecraft by itself. 2003: Japan launched the Hayabusa probe towards asteroid 1998 SF36 to attempt and retrieve a sample.

Also, protip: Press F2 to take the navball and all that off the screen. Nice screenshots too

I didn't think of it, but it was a good thing so I used it. And yes, the majority of students are as dumb as a rock. If idiots could fly, my school would be an airport. (Also not original)

Reminds me of the time when some people ask me, "You're quiet, aren't you?" I just say, "No, I just talk to those who are worthy. Most of you aren't." But really, I only talk to my friends which are only in certain classes.

Kind of obvious, but Moho=Mercury Eve=Venus Kerbin=Earth Duna=Mars Dres=Ceres Jool=Jupiter Eeloo=Pluto

That image I put on wasn't part of the game but whatever. Carry on. Edit: Nevermind, didn't look at the rest of @LetsGoToMars!'s post

Those are actually nice looking, normally all the single-launch space stations I've seen look like something I'd see in a public restroom. Nice job!

May 8 1989: STS-30 and its crew of 5 landed back at Earth. 1994: The Scout orbital booster was last launched from Vandenburg AFB.

@0111narwhalz, just know I can't help you at all with any of that, maybe @Mad Rocket Scientist?

I'd suggest using Imgur. You upload a picture from your screenshots folder. Then you view your image on the website after uploading it and copy the direct link, then paste that here. It should automatically format.

You know how I was talking about how a kid at my school got hit by a truck on Wednesday? Well he's back at school today, he looks completely fine which is nice, but he walks a little differently now. Also, our school seems to have no luck with kids and cars, because a kid at our school unfortunately was in a car accident yesterday and died on his way to the hospital.

I like it!

Oh. It's nothing, just a low res image.

Hmm... I'm trying to remember. I think it was Wings.io. So basically it's KSP with BD Armory.

May 7 1961: It was proposed that a Titan II rocket could be used as a launch vehicle for the lunar landing program. It was soon suggested to use it to launch a scaled-up Mercury spacecraft. 1992: STS-49 and its crew of 7 launched into orbit on a 9-day mission. It retrieved the Intelsat 6 satellite already in orbit.

Do you mean the image isn't showing up at all for you or you can't tell what the literal 16-pixel image is?

Can't be more low-res than this.

May 6 1959: It was concluded that pigs would not be test subjects in Mercury Little-Joe flights as they could not survive long periods on their back. 1985: STS-51-B and its crew of 7 landed back at Earth. 1991: STS-39 and its crew of 7 landed back at Earth. 2001: Soyuz TM-31 and its crew of 3 landed back at Earth.
