  1. This question about mods had been moved to add-on discussion.
  2. I’ve been doing the opposite and having the same thoughts. This is a good thread for articles that won’t get a lot of replies, but aren’t questions either.
  3. A few overlapping threads have been merged.
  4. Somebody want to give me the TLDR single sentence of what axiom is?
  5. I think that is the picture shown... but I'm not sure how much it will apply in game... but also.... they have a PhD and other related nerds on staff, so...... ya never know. Good vid @KSPStar, thank the team for us!
  6. A candidate star that is possibly 12.9 billion LY away has been identified, and is now on the schedule for the first round of observations by the JWST.
  7. Day 6 update: Boss has been reported to be on the floor with a flashlight. I hid it inside a stretcher of a table, he can’t find it. Rumor has it he is contemplating getting an exterminator.
  8. Hi folks! We've been seeing a number of threads pop up over the recent past about Project Orion, in both a scientific analysis of feasibility and uses in Science Fiction. We have decided to merge these into one large megathread to help reduce redundancy in the discussion. We do apologize for any overlap or confusion in the existing threads. Please, carry on with the current discussion de jeur, and direct any new discussions or topics that pertain to Project Orion to this thread. Thanks!
  9. Overlapping threads have been merged. All future release date discussion should be done here, thank you.
  10. Add-on question moved to modded support.
  11. Welcome to the forums @KerbalCALVIN! Your post has been added to our existing SSTO megathread.
  12. We already have a game like this, no need for another.
  13. Moved to the exchange. Considering it doesn’t show up at all for me....
  14. I know in the few other threads we’ve had here, (they’re fairly old, not worth merging), the wow! Signal was proven to be a comet, and then arguably disproven. But yeah, @Akagi, don’t break your brain trying to decipher that, it’s not a code. It’s a value. The Q represents a single digit value in base ~66. I don’t know the exact base, But it goes 0-9, a-z, and then A-Z or something like that. Sort of how a YouTube web address isn’t random letters, it’s actually a random number randomly assigned to a video in base ~80 ( Tom Scott does a really good video on this and how YouTube won’t run out of video addresses before the heat death of the universe, or sometime around there. Big numbers are big). The 0 value signals are dropped, so only values above background are shown. Each value also represents a certain length of time, I don’t know if it’s 10 seconds or 10 ms, but it’s some length of time. All this means that you could quite easily type the data values into Excel (after some formatting changes to handle the base change), and easily show a graph of radio signal strength vs time. I’m pretty sure it’d look a lot like the greater Dubai region skyline too. All of this is from memory, but it’s roughly close. Edit: My bases were off a bit, but close enough. The video is worth watching though.
  15. That's a good point @Random-E. And since it is a question about KSP, and not KSP2, it has been moved to KSP Discussion.
  16. Thread has been moved to the Lounge. Since all posts in KSP Discussion, by definition, are about KSP, this question is best located in a section that serves multiple purposes.
  17. Overlapping threads have been merged. We have plenty of megathreads on KSP2 already.
  18. This Maria, is what we have been asking @kerbiloid for years.
  19. So, the question boils down to "What's the longest duration 0-g flight can a human take without seeing any ill effects from that lack of gravity?"?
