  1. http://xkcd.com/1106/ I smiled when I saw the "alt text" of the image. Didn't anyone else here notice? Am I the only one who follows XKCD comic?
  2. I have recently downloaded BMS mod for Falcon 4.0, and I have to say it\'s awesome. I was used to fly in the original Falcon 4.0 and 'new' Falcon 4.0 Allied Force, but even considering those two previous versions realism, BMS is a new league. I\'m loving it.
  3. * This is a simple design using only stock parts (without struts). * The use of this calculator to calculate the transfer delta-V and orbital speeds is recommended. HTO-01: (Or, how to accidentally create a decent vehicle to try out Hohmann transfer orbits.) Let me put this into context. I was bored, really bored. The kind of boredom which shouts for KSP. I decided I'd try to create a rocket with enough fuel to reach a low circular orbit, and a solid fuel booster to decelerate and return to Kearth. What happened instead, is that after reaching orbit at 42,000m (+-15m) I noticed I had a full liquid fuel stage and the deceleration solid fuel stage left. What this means is that this vehicle will easily allow you to get into orbit =<100Km high with enough liquid fuel to try hohmann transfers up to about 1,000Km (I got bored after 3 transfers and 500km altitude, with about 3/4 liquid tank left. It's also small enough that you can easily maneuver it's orbital stages without requiring non-vanilla things (Like the RCS module) nor a godlike patience and attention.
