Tomorrow I will be hosting a stream over at my Twitch channel to celebrate and bring in the new year. I have been given a Steam key for a copy of Kerbal Space Program that I will be giving out during the night! Time: 9Pm EST(-5 GMT) (tentative) until ??? Place: PlasticSporks Twitch Channel Be sure to follow me to be notified when the event is live, and also follow me on Twitter (@PlasticSporksLP) so you can stay informed on the give-away. I hope to see you there! Thanks to all the guys at Squad for making this possible! Sporks

I am currently live, doing and endurance flight to the North Pole from KSC! come hang out and keep me motivated

I recently resurrected my Twitch account to start playing KSP again, and I am having a blast. I would like to invite you guys to come and check it out, located here. I have been away from KSP for a while, and I thought what better way to come back after the vast changes and updates I missed than to add mods to a game I don't remember how to play! What could possibly go wrong (or right, for that matter...)? My current schedule is daily starting around 8am EST. It has worked out for me so far, about two weeks in. If you are interested and can make it, I would love to see you in chat! Again, my channel is located here. Thanks for your time! Sporks

I have always enjoyed KSP. I usually went very minimal with mod usage. At most, I had Kerbal Engineer or Kethane, never anything too much. I have played around with part packs in the past, but always seemed to go back to vanilla KSP. That all changed for this Let's Play series. I have added several mods to take my KSP experience a bit further. Come check out what I get myself into! The playlist of the series can be found here:

That wasn't the tug, the tug was still docked to the array at the time. The stage i separated from was just a stage to get to the station. I underestimated the ejection force of the decoupler... and for once it worked out perfectly

I was attempting to rendezvous and dock a solar array module to my new Kerbin station and the strangest thing happened... http://www.twitch.tv/plasticsporks/c/3077944 Now keep in mind, things like this NEVER happen to me

In Episode 7, I discuss the future of the series:

In Episode 6, I launch a mission to dock a crew compartment and space tug to the Kerbin station. (I also remember that I forgot a lot about docking and rendezvous mechanics. :/)

Episode 5 is up, and in this mission we launch the first of the space station cores. This core is destined to be the Kerbal station:

Good stuff man, keep it up.

Lol that is awesome, glad to hear it

In episode 4, we send our first brave Kerbal on a mission to Mün:

Episode 3 is live, and we send our first mission to the Mün in preparation for the next mission, a manned mission.

Episode 2 is now live. In this episode, we design, test, and fly a mission to try and mine our first batch of Kethane.

Hey guys, I'm PlasticSporks, and I've been making KSP videos for a while and posting them to YouTube. I recently dusted off my series for season 3. In this season, I started using the Kethane mod pack to expand the goals of 'Sporks in Space.' Join in and let me know how I am doing, and give advice on how to improve my space program! Also, you can find my Youtube channel here: http://www.youtube.com/user/PlasticSp0rks I have a decent amount of KSP content as well as other types of games.

Will do, I\'ve been browsing that area of the forums and the Silisko Collections, I think I\'ll give those a whirl.

I\'ve been pokin\' around these forums for the last week or so, bought the game a while back in .13 or .14, and finally decided to join the forums a few days ago. This is a great community so far, already helped me on a few issues I have had. A little bit about me: I am 28, ex-Army, born and raised in NW Georgia. I migrated south a little over a year ago and now live in southern Florida. I love building things, sandbox style games, and explosions. Kerbal Space Program just about makes my face melt with awesomeness. I have a Youtube channel, where I post videos, mainly Minecraft, but I have started a KSP Let\'s Play recently. If you are interested in it, check my profile or ask for a link. This isn\'t a \'view my channel\' or \'gimme a sub\' post, so don\'t worry. I\'d also like to ask if anyone has any mods/plugins they would suggest for a beginner/newer player. I have managed to reach orbit, land on Mun, and return to Kerbin, so the very basics I can do, but I\'d like to find some good mods that are noob-proof, so to speak. Thanks for your time, Sporks

Great job on the game so far... and it\'s only in alpha...

About 4 years old now, that pic is.

Haha, yeah, I have smacked it a few times myself. Man, I should have posted for advice much earlier. You guys have been awesome. Now... let\'s just see if I can land on Mun...

So, say, if I wanted, I could have a few more engines/fuel tanks stacked side by side, and reduce the height of the craft? That\'d make it easier to handle also, right?

Great info. A bit of an update, about 20 minutes ago I think I did all the tips you said on accident, haha. I now have a craft orbiting Kerbal, preparing to do a munar burn. Thanks for the help!

: Ok guys, I am seeking help. Help to better understand the way to build an efficient, simple rocket. Help learning how to get said rocket into orbit (I can get into orbit... sometimes... very unreliable...), and perhaps even one day learn to get to Mun and beyond. This is a video of myself describing my frustration. The video also has footage of a failed launch. Any help/criticism/tutelage is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Sporks
