  1. Gonna start work on an Ohio class submarine replica this weekend (SSGN not SSBN)

  2. If anyone knows anything on rocket nozzles and how to make one let me know please

  3. Going to attempt a fully reusable fairing-less two stage rocket this weekend... I really hope this works

  4. Well I have found a  new passion, and a new baby other than my launch vehicles... a Ford 1979 Mustang. Now how to make it fly...

  5. "We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too." - President John F. Kennedy 

    The man who inspired me to dream.

  6. @Lo Var Lachland I challenge  you start a new science mode and try to beat me to the Mün! And I have never landed with out mech jeb.

      And sorry to break it to you but NASA wasn't first to the moon OR Venus. That record goes to the Soviets.

      One more question:

       

      This is stock, right?

      I will message you about that

  7. Today I am designing a new rocket in science mode called the Dragon 1

  8. Currently considering a new rocket to fail in my reusablity techniques with 7 engines insread of 9.

  9. My Saber rocket family has finally gotten off the ground (both literally and metaphorically) with the launch of 34,500 ton payload to LKO on a Saber 9 with a fully fueled second stage and a half fueled first stage. after that we did another launch with only one of the four tanks on the first stage being fully fueled and the others being half fuel it almost soft landed in the ocean but unfortunately the  engines were cut a little early causing only the engines to survive (CURSE YOU KERBAL PHYSICS!).

  10. I am trying to come up with names for my drone ships possible contenders right now are:

    "Good Morning Vietnam"

    "Watch the birdie"

    "May the force be with you"

    "Houston, we have a problem"

    "Chewie, we're home"

    1. NSEP

      NSEP

      I like "May the force be with you."

      I added another star wars one

  11. BREAKING NEWS THIS JUST IN! (Well for me anyways)

    Elon Musk's brand new Falcon Heavy core not only mused the drone ship but hit the ocean at 300mph. 

    "That's hard", Elon said.

  12. About 1 year ago I came up with my own take on reusable rockets, today I put it to the test... or at least the harshest of tests, the kerbal test.

      NSEP

      Can we see it? Or is it top secret?

      Currently still under testing as in the first one hasn't been built but I plan on creating a thread eventually for the family of rockets.

  13.  

    I have long since before the days of exploring space with multi-staged rockets that could reach orbit dreamed of an aircraft that would soar well past Mach 1. That could fly to the stars and back... and now she will become reality. I will create a vehicle I have dreamed about for almost half a year. My Mk-3 fully stock (At least besides what my moudle manager has changed) SSTO so rightfully named the X-376 Valkyrie.

    (Thanks to @Exothermos for the confiendence)

      Hey, cool man!  :cool:  Glad to be of service.  Hit me up if you get bogged down.

  14. A friend and I are going to shortly begun working on completing a customized F/A-18E Super Hornet wit an action group that toggles thrust vectoring.

  15. Holly crape. I have actually achieved super maunverablitity with three different designs!

  16. Thinking about starting my own rocketry company. Sorry Musk.

  17. Kepler is go. first stage is go second stage is go ignition in t-minus 10 minutes

  18. time to launch the hubble space telescope thanks to cacteye telescopes

  19. Duck Tape saved Apollo 13... it truly is the ultimate building material.

  20. felling really good right now since i just took on scientists hold dynamo theory and ripped it right out of there hands

  21. Just built my largest launch vechile yet (almost clips in the rafters of the VAB) trying to get a class E astroid home leting it impact. (just destroyed the launch pad one it loaded LOL)
