KSP2 will make my PS4 explode better than an ICBM

Fun fact: There is a Bulgarian song up there, and I'm Bulgarian! Here it is:

:hailprobe: :hailprobe: once again

The Voyager 2 should have not a single song, but a playlist of several songs! (That's because it has a disc on it playing songs)

Do not Vostok (Russian: Восток, translated as "East") was a family of rockets derived from the Soviet R-7 Semyorka ICBM and was designed for the human spaceflight programme. This family of rockets launched the first artificial satellite (Sputnik 1) and the first crewed spacecraft (Vostok) in human history. It was a subset of the R-7 family of rockets.

An investigation into a similar – but avoided – accident revealed that the substitution of lead-based for tin-based solder in hydrogen peroxide filters allowed the breakdown of the H2O2, thus causing the resultant explosion.

You have a "Kerman" in your name and thats good!

I have talked about the control bug a lot (down becomes up and up is still up and in other cases left is left and right is left) and it really annoys me. Could've saved 30 minutes from the yesterday Duna suffering... So, it has to do something with RCS and any atmosphere. Any ideas on how to fix it? Pls Blitworks, pls fix it

Its not so efficient, but its a two staged so it sounds cool! Does the whole rocket have to be made of swivels or just the lander? And should there be just one swivel per stage, meaning the diameter doesn't matter?

After a lot of pain, mental suffering and sweat, I MADE IT TO DUNA AND BACK!!!!!!!!!!111!1! A control bugged during the landing. Left command became left and... Right became left... Anyways, Jeb picked up some blueberries (Bob tasted them and realized they were just rocks...) Ascent didn't go so smooth... With the control bug I had to do some weird maneuvers to get the inclination. I didn't reach orbit before fuel ran out. So I used my RCS thrusters instead. Docking was smooth. The blueberries were moved to the command module so scientists on Kerbin could analise them. I used a direct Kerbin encounter without really waiting for another transfer window. Re-entry was a little too... HOT HOT AAH HOT HOT HOT. 6000m/s. Bill stated that the electronics almost melted. So, as I slowed down parachutes deployed successfully. TOUCHDOWN!!!!!!11!1!1!1 Oh, and just to mention I docked a science module to my station. Might undock it because it has too many parts that create lag...

Cool! You can now take your badge!

Yeah I guess...

Shipping to Bulgaria pls?

Do you have the science experiments storage thingy unlocked?

I suppose it could be made, jus without the sharing mission thing.

Back to reviving a... 9 year old thread?!? I start the gravity turn slowly, almost directly after liftoff. When the apoapsis reaches the target altitude, I turn equatorial and sometimes below 0°, until the first stage runs out of fuel. Then I burn prograde (without even using a maneuver node!) until I reach a circular orbit.
