It WAS. Until somebody launched it in to space..

Minmus is made up of trillions of tiny tiny dwarves. /thread

Deimos C1 sent to Duna, just to be sure I would get back I had more than enough fuel to get back, so I'm thinking a very slightly modified version should be able to get to Dres and back

Aah. That's just bad luck to be honest. Not much you can do about that!

It's... it's aliiiiiiivvvvveee!

Your EVA problem could be fixed by hitting 'R' and firing up their RCS packs to move them around. Shift goes up, CTRL goes down, WSAD for translation. Unless you already knew that and are just struggling to get to grips with it, which we all did

Genetically modify a small ape to be green and adorable? And a rocket scientist?

First of all, I wish I was at your school, that sounds amazing. I think for those who haven't played KSP, a reasonable challenge would be successful Mun mission by the end of the week. For those who can play it well, i'm not so sure..

Get off my space station, you pesky kids!

I've never thought of clipping command pods together before - makes for interesting looking designs, like yours, which I like a lot! Will have to try it

I'm glad you said that - I think my next big mission will be a manned Dres mission, just to give it a bit of recognition

I tried inter-planetary travel with no knowledge of phase angles or transfer windows and just burned for Duna. Needless to say, it didn't work...

I've never been to Dres but I feel it is the runt of the planets - nobody ever visits it, or has any funny stories about it. Nobody mentioned it as their favourite, it has no anomalies. Its the planet everyone forgets, poor Dres. If anybody has actually been to Dres or likes Dres or has even heard of Dres please, for the love of God, raise your hand.

Technically speaking, it was as this piece went in to Kerbol orbit..

Ohh, okay that makes sense. Always confused me, that did

Plaid moon, anyone?

Can somebody clarify why ending up in retrograde orbit is so undesirable? My Duna mission went fine and I was in a retrograde orbit - is it something to do with the Oberth effect?

Have fun going forgetting parachutes after 250 hours of game time I still forget..

Duna - its the best place to pull off a really intricate mission without high risk of failure

Finally, the Deimos is ready for its trip to Duna - assembled in orbit and essentially all stock bar KerbPaint and Chatterer.

Goddamn my inept English skills.

I can't take any of that seriously simply because of the suffix 'ARS'
