    No, I'm just occupied with other things right now. Don't worry.

    Even though I was born in 1995, my third grade class had Apple IIs, so I would sometimes play this. (Thank you.)

    (how do you embed Youtube videos?)

    Amazing base design! Hexagons = cool

    Solar freakin' roadways? Why not have a SOLAR FREAKIN' MOON!? (Just to let you know, I don't believe in the feasibility of either (especially when the cost to build them will likely outweigh the potential savings by a lot). But they are interesting concepts.)

    Mission 62: Moon Rabbit 2 Description: A manned Mun lander derived from the Reusable Crew Vehicle series, with a small 3-Kerbal rover that detaches from the bottom. Mass at launch: 16043 kg Launch vehicle: Symphony-10t-4S Mission objective: Land near Futurebase Mun and head inside. Crew: Ludvis Kerman, Camlorf Kerman, Doodrim Kerman Click below to see more: https://imgur.com/a/KZnso

    It's much, much easier to just make a mid-course correction on your way to Minmus.

    Pre-KSP, any time I tried to search SSTO on Youtube brought up trampolining videos. This is the only spaceplane SSTO I ever made (for the K-Prize), and it only went to low Kerbin orbit and back. The kind of SSTO I'm using right now is a vertical launch vehicle which uses nine aerospikes to carry up to 10 tons into LKO, then lands back at KSC with MechJeb. Multiple solid rocket boosters can be appended to it for extra capacity, but it wouldn't be an SSTO anymore.

    There's a country called Pharthan which made these rockets the one on the right has asparagus staging

    That's an actual command pod, not one of those exposed command seats, and you launched this with one rocket? Amazing!

    Mars for Less, people! (What it would look like)

    Mission 61: Futurebase-4 Description: A wheeled laboratory module identical to Futurebase-2, except for a slightly larger transfer stage. Mass at launch: 5585 kg (14660 kg with transfer tug) Launch vehicle: Symphony-10t-4S Mission objective: Land on the Mun and dock to Futurebase-3. Click below to see more: https://imgur.com/a/2TNWK

    (Actually the terrain settings have been changed back to "default", and the render back to "fastest". It's the terrain shader that makes things look better.) Mission 60: Futurebase-3 Description: A stationary base module with one habitation module, three docking ports, a pair of solar arrays, and a communications dish. Mass at launch: 10025 kg Launch vehicle: Symphony-10t Mission objective: Land on the Mun. Click below to see more: https://imgur.com/a/yFMtI

    I made a country known as "Hatsunia": which has a space program (in Orbiter)

    The Symphony-10t is boosted by nine Toroidal Aerospike Rockets, can lift about 10 tons of payload into Low Kerbin Orbit, and (with Mechjeb) lands precisely back at Kerbal Space Center.

    Thanks a lot! Mission 59: Moon Rabbit 1 Description: A manned Minmus lander derived from the Reusable Crew Vehicle series. Mass at launch: 9115 kg Launch vehicle: Symphony-10t Mission objective: Land near Futurebase Minmus and head inside.

    (You may notice that the terrain looks a bit better. That's because I downloaded the Active Texture Management mod, allowing me to turn up my graphics settings a bit.) Mission 58: Futurebase-2 Description: A wheeled laboratory module with two docking ports and scientific equipment. Mass at launch: 5585 kg (11718 kg with transfer tug) Launch vehicle: Symphony-10t-2S Mission objective: Land on Minmus and dock to Futurebase-1. Click below to see more: https://imgur.com/a/Dh5w4

    I really love the solar panels on the Hall-1 transfer stage. The probe that lands looks really cool, too.

    First day, I got a satellite into orbit. Granted, I have Orbiter experience.

    After a 7-month hiatus, KASDA is finally back! I left KASDA for a long while because I wasn't sure what to do next (also, I was doing other things on the computer). After career mode and science points were introduced, I was wondering if I should start over. Eventually, I decided to keep this sandbox playthrough going. The thing is, I realized that Moon Princess 7 wasn't very fun to drive in the lower gravity. So that "mission 57" is now non-canon. Also, the Symphony launchers are now designated as "t" instead of "k". Mission 57: Futurebase-1 Description: A stationary base module with one habitation module, one docking port, a pair of solar arrays, and a communications dish. Mass at launch: 8299 kg Launch vehicle: Symphony-10t Mission objective: Land on Minmus. Click below to see more: https://imgur.com/a/ancEm

    This is a problem that needs to be fixed when we have budgets: FL-T800 Fuel Tank (1.25 m) - Fuel/Oxidizer: 360 L/440 L - Cost: 1600 (2 kerbucks/liter of propellant) Rockomax X200-8 Fuel Tank (2.5 m) - Fuel/Oxidizer: 360 L/440 L - Cost: 900 (~1.13 kerbucks/liter of propellant) Rockomax Jumbo-64 Fuel Tank (2.5 m) - Fuel/Oxidizer: 2880 L/3520 L (8 times the propellant in the X200-8) - Cost: 12500 (~1.95 kerbucks/liter of propellant)

    Well, NASA's planning to do it unmanned, so...

    First attempt at redirecting an asteroid (to this orbit). It's a C-class.

    All space station modules IRL were launched without people being inside those modules during launch. (so that the spacecraft that brought the crew up can be used as an escape pod during an emergency, I guess)

    It looks 1.5 times wider than the 2.5m tanks.
