    In fact it was my childhood obsession with rockets that got me into KSP.

    For me, it was my childhood obsession with KSP that got me into rockets haha.

    Well, then specify a Single stage spaceplane.      Spaceplane =/= SSTO.    SSTO = Single Stage to Orbit.   A spaceplane might be a type of SSTO, or not.   A vertical launch rocket can easily be a SSTO.   Any SSTO can also have stages that are deployed after reaching orbit.  

    Knowing that, is there a limit?

  3. Hello,

    I have installed TAC life support and Planetside Exploration Technologies via CKAN, but the hydroponics module doesn't seem to be growing food. The part in question is the "PT M100G  Hydroponics Module." I have put scientists in the module, and clicked "Grow Vegetables," but food diminishes over time and it isn't replaced with fresh food from the greenhouse.

    Am I missing something? Does it take time to grow food? Do I need additional resources? The hydroponics module says that it is "Operational."

    TACLS is compatible with PET, by the way.

    Thanks!:P

  4. Continuing from last time. . .

    Today in KSP I did two minor missions: Manned flyby of Duna for extra science and 3rd landing on the Mun also for extra science.

    I also started the New Possibilities Space Station in an orbit around Kerbin at about 80Km. Today I launched the core, fuel tanks, hydroponics module, hab module, snacks containers, and SSTO docking port. 

    Here's the station so far:

    After launching the station core, I also launched the tug.

    Here's the process:

    The assembly consisted of three separate launches. Each one cost me about 45,000 funds. ;.;

    Rendezvous-ing?:

    The tug grabs the modules:

    Docking:

    I repeated this painful process 3 or 4 times until the station looked like this:

    Once the I send up the final modules (science and solar arrays) I will crew it and fill the big tank with fuel.  Now I have to do a ton of contracts to regain the funds wasted on this heap of junk  really cool space station.

    Nice pics. Just remember to turn the lights on so we can see the ship. :)

    Yesterday I did a fast flyby and seismic impact on Ike (JNSQ). I had a relay satellite with the booster still attached, which was quite useful for the impact. Achieved a "personal best" of 57 GJ.  You can see the energy in KSP.log or Alt-F12 console in game: 

    Seismic Event Detected on Ike - Impact of 57779313693.4181J. Total Mass 5.491298. Initial Velocity 4587.369.

    I made a video of the Ike flyby but I suppose it's nothing you haven't seen before.

    Now I have a contract to impact Duna and that will be much harder due to the atmosphere.

    Thanks for the suggestion :P Didn't realize bc I have my brightness turned up so I could see the ship.
