  1. How about only 16 times the mass? That's a REALLY heavy air intake, kinda extremely impractical actually.
  2. If anything radioactive, and dangerous because of that, exists on Earth in dangerous portions, people will try to make a reactor that can use it. Of course throwing away trash into space is a stupid idea. But civilizations have made really dumb decisions to try and do what's easiest at the time rather than what's best. The scenario I was proposing was more of a thing where after civilization has almost failed due to lack of resources, humans have to go to Venus and reclaim all of that old trash. Hundreds of crews of, say, 7 people each would have to go to Venus and constantly fling trash back into orbit. Note that "fling" is literally the most opposite of merely throwing something into orbit that you can get from the surface of any planet in the solar system.
  3. The first one has mittens instead of gloves. That means... Barbie is a Kerbal confirmed. - - - Updated - - - In the future, space suits will be a huge part of fashion, like a coat during the winter, you don't want to look bad while getting out of your space car.
  4. 4/10 seen that signature earlier today.
  5. Tom Scott is brilliant, definitely subscribe to him. Also, watch this relevant thing.
  6. 1: It will be a real science system. If KSP teaches orbital mechanics, Science of the Spheres teaches science. At least, that's what it looks like so far to me. 2: It's a secret. (There are a finite amount of seeds that you could possibly put in your computer, so that's probably the limit.) I know that Galaxies are isolated objects due to the large distances between them. Read all of the devblog. It answers much of this.
  7. Fixed that for you. I have practically memorized all of the lines from WALL-E. I know when something's wrong with a quote.
  8. Because it's harder to get a collision course with a warp drive?
  9. The 2.5m rocket parts actually do have a curved bulkhead at the top and bottom. Look closely and you can see. But proper bulkheads with orange spray-on insulation would be nice.
  10. Instead of storing all of our trash stuff on Earth, let's just throw it all away onto Venus with warp drives! Over the next few thousand years, usable resources on Earth dwindle to nothingness. Just an idea for a sci-fi story.
  11. I wonder how hard having Jebediah's Spray-On Heatshield available as a late-tech option for spraypainting the bottom of a spaceplane black to increase mass and heat tolerance.
  12. Just noticed something about stock 2.5m tanks. They actually have a curved bulkhead on the inside already. They're not mostly flat after all! Take a really close look from the side to see what I mean, it actually curves up into the sides of the tank. 1.25m stock tanks however, are still flat-topped.
  13. Can confirm, was given negative rep. As a test. Then given positive rep to balance it out, so all is well.
  14. 0.9 is not the same as 0.90. 0.9 added struts and usable staging, 0.90 added upgradeable buildings, Mk3 parts, etc, and put the game in Beta. Version numbers are NOT Decimals.
  15. HypeWeapons are hard to do when you're firing at someone who's really hyped about not dying. A fundamental law of Hype is that two opposing Hype forces can not be used together in any meaningful way.
  16. TextureReplacer supports navball textures already.
  17. Yeah, nice troll there. None of these things are possible in mods, and if they were they'd not need someone to make a modpack out of it. And you're not a game developer for anything if you can't mod.
  18. Our company does not exist on the stock market. You can't do that. Not interested in your Hype Tech. The curator of the HypeMuseum is not associated with the Hype Transportation Company, and Hype was only discovered in the early 1800s, hardly "ancient". And our work is not mediocre.
  19. I wonder what would happen if someone on a holodeck ate nothing but holodeck food for a few years, and stayed in the holodeck the whole time? Would they become a hologram? Just a thought. Anyway, that's a neat idea there. But there might just not be any difference between normal and microverse matter, especially since we're supposed to be able to mine huge amounts of things like gold and platinum.
  20. It's your default browser's spell check, btw. Manually remove it by right-clicking on it and selecting add to dictionary.
  21. There are various engineers and inventors working with Hype for design of different things. It's a trade secret type thing.
