  1. Another thing I thought of, Minmus needs a minimum diameter of some 200 - 400km to be spherical, yet it seems to be some 50km across, so maybe its shape is not too realistic.
  2. In actual fact, antimatter is equally as stable as regular matter, it is only when the two meet (which, since on Earth, matter is everywhere), that things go boom. I\'m not even sure if we can distinguish between matter and antimatter unless we let them meet...
  3. I would buy a piece of land near my city, and start a space program... Last man on Titan is a rotten egg!
  4. Honorable mentions: http://www.youtube.com/user/szyzyg?feature=results_main http://www.youtube.com/user/trydyingtolive?feature=results_main
  5. Put a minimum of 10,000 fuel units into Kerbin orbit, this equates to 20 regular tanks...
  6. Get one object in a Kerbol orbit that does not cross Kerbin\'s orbit, and get another object out there to touch it 8)
  7. Planes are re-usable if you can land them. Otherwise, it doesn\'t matter what they look like...
  8. The geostationary orbit is at the altitude of the object where the planet\'s rotational speed is equal to the orbital period.
  9. I once got 600,000X400,000 (km). Mods.
  10. May I have bonus points for doing this on the Space Kraken instead 8)
  11. Scott is the guy that inspired me to do my first solar return
  12. I would tell the engineers that they could earn 30 times more money if they glue a comm unit to it, and stellar wind can be found much past Kerbin\'s altitude...
  13. A geostationary object going around Minmus would be a telescope on Kerbin. As Minmus is tidally locked, it\'s geostationary height is some 40,000km.
  14. You do realise that a satellite orbiting Kerbol would not need to return to Kerbin for the scientists to recieve their data. It can simply transmit the data via radio waves.
  15. Can you do a tripleshot with it? IE, Mun -> Minmus -> Mun?
  16. Despite needing a bit more fuel than the regular method of re-intercept, this is by far the easiest way of reuniting with Kerbin.
  17. Exactly! And, if Aerospikes work in the vacuum, don\'t use \'em
  18. Do you remember the tune that came with the Transformers 3 trailer? Yeah, that
  19. What you have is a miniature version of a SunJump, which is exactly how the Sun worked before 1.4.
  20. Basically, you need a lot of upward momentum. MOAR JETS!
  21. If you squeezed out the rest of your RCS, you would have gotten a higher impact momentum.
  22. Is this on the near side or the far side? If on the far side, you need a lunar satellite, and possibly radio telescopes...
  23. Hypothetically, this is possible, as I have done it with modded parts. But is it possible with stock? Balanced part packs are allowed, but part packs that have overpowered parts (like an infinite fuel tank) are not. Underpowered parts, however, are allowed
  24. This topic is about the smallest LANDER, the part that actually lands on the Mun. As such, your lander is four parts, less than the two of the true Bare Minimum lander. Yes, it is highly difficult to land on the moon with a SRB, but this does not make it impossible. Although using a small tank and small engine may be lighter than this setup.
