Obligatory massive asteroid picture.

Are you sure all options are viable. With RSS, the distances and dV you are dealing with are larger. Anything further then 2.3 Km will despawn in the atmo below a certain altitude.

"Two dimensional" Island on Laythe.

656 tons, a few versions ago With all the fancy new ARM kit available now, might build something massive sometime. Though I don't have a need for it.

Yeah, I saw an article on it today. Decided to put off paying a bunch of bills this evening. Partly this, partly coz lazy. It's pretty bad, but you don't get to choose the data that is leaked out. However, in time it seems you can get any and everything. Including the server certificates!

I have an old save from .18, and they showed up. Only 1 or 2 at first, then more later.

Mine have been Kerbaled. Wouldn't feel right not to bring a few of 'em for the adventure. Never know, they might need to get out and push.

Seems more like making a moon out of an asteroid to me.

Isn't there a hole on the Mun as well? Smaller and easier to get to than Moho.

Agreed. Although people know of Newton as a great scientist among others like Einstein and many more. I don't think people appreciate the significance of his work. Before Newton, science itself wasn't really that scientific. It wasn't a such clearly defined discipline either. Its practitioners were often more philosophers, tinkerers, inventors and theologians.

I think the planetary bodies are good, but not great. Just take a look the visual enhancement mods and planet mods to see how they could be better.

The Claw. Since it provides a completely new ability.

Wait, what?! That was your Class E? Seems they must vary a lot. Below is what i'm still hauling in. Over 3000 tons!

2 gigawatts isn't that much. Some trivia - the Saturn V first stage produced in excess of 150 gigawatts. That is 3 times as much as the electrical generation capacity of my country, Australia. Um, I didn't answer your question. Sorry.

I would say rendezvous was easier than expected. Mainly because I was expecting the Roids in highly elliptical solar orbits. Have captured a Class-A into Kerbin orbit. That was easy. Number two is a class E.... well... that's a different story that is still being played out.

Same here. Though I think of the grey tank as a Large Regular, with the orange tank a Large Double, and the smaller white tank a Large Half. Same naming for the 1m parts, but Small instead of Large. Meanwhile in engine land, the Mainsail is no longer the King of engines. Bit sad really. The times they are a changin.

I survived, but lost a few hundred posts. I was quite active before the incident. 'Twas sad times... a few people I liked never returned, or just lurked. At least I didn't lose as much as some (sal_vager!!!)

So sad Considering the manic development cycle of 0.23.5 i don't expect to see any new (or re-born) easter eggs.

Personally I see it more like Squad helping NASA really. Though both have benefited from the ARM collaboration.

I have tried but no joy. Others have succeeded where I have failed.

I never had it rip a vessel apart. You had to be going very fast for that to happen. For the most part it made the craft uncontrollable. Like many hurdles in the development of KSP, "The Kraken" was a floating point issue. If memory serves, vessels are rigid bodies, with velocity and forces calculated for each part. At high velocities, you would lose precision. This resulted in the phantom forces rolling the vessel. It was fixed with "Krakensbane". Which cancelled out the high velocity by making the universe move, while the vessel remained slow relative to the scene origin.

Wow - finally! Will putting all pictures in spoilers (unless it's a pictures thread) be back as forum etiquette as well?

This should be the new year zero... 1st January 1970 When machines take over the world, they will change it to that. So might as well switch over now and be done with it. Save our new machine overlords the hassle.

Well I am back! This is my 0.23 K-Prize entry. Hmm, I wonder if anyone else has had a qualifying entry in every version since 0.16 inclusive. Anyhows, I have some more VTOL SSTO action here with Excalibur. Lots a pics, so low rez, but click pics for full size. Welp, this is a 9-seater, so Jebediah, Bill and Bob load up with 6 noobs for some Zero Gee training action in spaaace. We are off. Yes we are moving forward a little. Jets at the back have a bit more TWR then needed. So ballistic we go. Ascent. Circularizing. Orbit - Pe is 102Km. We are back. KSC in sight. Ok, so I botched final. Distracted by checking fuel and intakes to see why it was pulling left a bit, but didn't find anything. Heck, screw the runway, lets go find someplace more interesting to land. VAB, I choose you! Gentle now.... BAM! We are done here.
