  1. Take some electricity moving in wacky ways and stare at the output of it for hours.
  2. Hi guys,

    I dunno if anyone will or can see this, but I just wanted to let you know that a  new Deity mission should be out today, stay tuned.

     

  3. Does anyone know if there's a map or chart of what antenna rating is good for each celestial body? i.e. xG for Jool, xM for Mun, etc.
  4. Hi folks, it's me again! I've come to share the latest and greatest adventures of The Deity Program, so lets not waste time and get right into it!. The Ares Rover is a marvel of modern engineering, a mobile laboratory containing state-of-the-art science experiments to study the atmosphere, temperature, surface features, and seismic nature of Duna. It launched aboard the Titan booster, it was the only rocket capable of such a job, as its payload capacity was just enough to get the rover and transfer stage to orbit. Here we get our first look at the transfer stage, it is powered by the LV-601 -4 Orbital Maneuvering Engine Cluster (From Nertea's Near Future Spacecraft mod). It was a tad overbuilt, which is common for rockets designed by me. After performing my ejection burn and doing some small corrections, I coasted to my Duna periapsis of 98 km. I performed my injection burn and got a circular polar orbit, just what I wanted. I prepared for the landing burn, which would take me down to a site at Duna's south pole. I performed the deorbit burn and began cruising down to the surface I forgot to take pictures of the fairing separation, sorry! But the drogue chutes opened, and the main chutes followed soon after. Touchdown! It landed perfectly. \ This is it's science arm in action and scanning a Duna meteorite. That's all folks! I hope you enjoyed this latest installment in The Deity Program, this was my first rover, so let me know if there's anything I could improve for next time!

  5. Hi folks! You may have seen my previous post about the Zeus mission, and I've decided to create a program out of it. It's called the Deity Program, and each mission will be named after a Greek god. I will be posting those missions here. Let's start this off with the latest mission, Aphrodite. This is the ATV or Aphrodite Transfer Vehicle performing its deorbit burn, it will set the probe on a trajectory to land on Eve. Here's a nice photo of the ADV or Aphrodite Descent Vehicle just after separating from the ATV. The blue dot behind the ATV is Kerbin. The heat shield provided a lot more drag than I thought it would, which made the descent a very long and boring process. The Aphrodite lander shortly after jettisoning the ADV. I packed way too many parachutes, which added to the length of the descent. Touchdown! The excessive use of physics warp during descent damaged the solar arms, but they still generate power luckily. And that's it! Sorry that this wasn't as in-depth as my last mission report, but I hope you guys still enjoyed it! Link to gallery: https://imgur.com/gallery/rGvSS3U
  6. The Zeus Probe as seen in front of Jool. The transfer stage was overbuilt, so that's why it's still there. In this photo, it has just entered SOI. I had set up an encounter with Tylo which allowed me to capture around Jool without using propellant. This is Tylo as seen from periapsis. My first destination was Pol, I performed a small boost at Jool apoapsis which set me up on a Pol encounter, I flew by at an altitude of about 650 kilometers. Next was Vall, I performed a negative boost maneuver at apoapsis and after waiting a bit and doing a few correction burns I got a nail-bitingly close pass of Vall at just 14 kilometers above sea level. After leaving Vall, I had to do a retrograde burn to recapture at Jool and avoid escaping. Up next is Laythe, It was a fairly uninteresting encounter, with an altitude of 1.1k kilometers. It provided an assist which set me up to encounter Tylo. Hello again, Tylo. I mainly went here because I forgot to do science when I met Tylo earlier, but I also went here so Tylo could assist me into an orbit that intersects with Jool's atmosphere. The above photos were taken from Zeus shortly before crashing into Jool. I wanted to do some science but sadly entering a thick atmosphere at 8k m/s makes you instantly burn up. And that's all folks! I hope you enjoyed reading, and feel free to take any of these screenshots to use as desktop backgrounds, in videos, etc. Here's a link to the full gallery: https://imgur.com/gallery/aqxKVwE
  7. When I try to insert images from url, I paste in the url, and when I click Insert in to Post the bar turns red, is this related to me being new to the forums?
  8. Hi, I go by Omni on the internet, I've been playing KSP for about 5 years now, and I have roughly 800 hours as of October 2020. I love all things space, I enjoy music, and I play the guitar and drums. Some other games I play include but are not limited to: Minecraft Among Us Subnautica Surviving Mars Factorio Cities: Skylines That's about all I have to say, thanks for this game and awesome community you guys have!
  9. Hi guys, I was wondering if you guys could recommend me some good stockalike mods, and I mean like stockalike to the degree that they are indistinguishable from the stock parts, a great example would be SuicidalInsanity's mods The stockalike mods I already have: Mk2 Expansion Mk3 Expansion Stockalike Mining Extension Stockalike Space Station Parts Redux Restock+ Near Future Pack Specifically I am looking for rocketry mods, but all stockalike mods are fine. You probably get asked this all the time, but I haven't found any threads that satisfy this question.
  10. Hey folks, Sorry if this isn’t the right place to put this, I’m new. Tonight I am going to endeavor into creating a fully reusable launch vehicle. I’ve never been very good at doing reusable stuff, so I was wondering if you guys had any tips! Thanks in advance.
