Looks amazing. Great work @Beale!

This is Kerbal Space Program. We would neeeever do that.

Whenever I'm in a new career save, I feel the need to complete every available story line contract and it annoys me greatly if I miss even a single one.

I don't watch a ton of youtubers but Raiz Space, Kevin Gustafson and Cosmonaut Crash (https://www.youtube.com/user/TheCosmoCrash/videos) are three that I frequent.

I wanted to get to the more advanced stuff from the get-go, so I decided to skip the early game by farming science on Kerbin and unlocking the first part of the tech tree. That's why the mission report starts during year 4. Storywise, lets just say the kerbals did a lot of R&D before the first launch. Thank you so much for the spreadsheet. That is awsome! Oh, and I wish I had thought of the parallel universe thing. My own explanation was much more mundane.

KSP version: 1.8.1 Expansions: Making History, Breaking Ground Mode: Career Last update: 22 June 2021 This is my third attempt at a mission report after Project Utopia petered out and The Space Program With No Name ended because of a crashed hard drive. The main goal of this save is, as the title suggests, to establish a permanent presence in space and make kerbalkind truly spaceborne. The report will follow the United Aerospace Alliance, as it strives to explore and colonize the Kerbol system. Using standardized launch vehicles, the UAA will attempt to build the infrastructure needed to support orbital stations, surface bases and long-range research vessels throughout the inner planets and beyond. Missions will be presented in short summaries accompanied by lots of pictures.

Not the first one, but the earliest one I remember clearly. I was using a life support mod for the first time and had Jeb in orbit for a contract. Time warped too far and he perished after running out of supplies. I wanted to bring the spacecraft back down, but it had no probe core so I had to send up Valentina and newly recruited kerbal. They docked with Jeb's craft and poor Val had to transfer over and sit next to her friend's dead body as she and the new recruit undocked and landed the two crafts separately. It was a most somber experience.

Granted I'm just guessing here, but from the looks of it the mod supports several versions of KSP by having TrajectoriesBootstrap.dll load the .bin file for whichever version you're running (for me, it's Trajectories16.bin since I'm on 1.6.1). By renaming the file, you're basically bypassing the bootstrap and unless it does more than just load the .bin it should work. But as I said, this is just me guessing. I haven't really looked into it properly.

Awesome! Thank you. I was using the Spacedock link from the OP. Should've thought to check github too.
