Space Shuttle Atlantis
Spaceisbeautifulul replied to Amloris's topic in KSP1 The Spacecraft Exchange
Nice man, this is one of the better spaceshuttle replicas. The only flaws are the engine under the tank and those small orange boosters, other than that, all accurate, all functional, and all good work! Have some rep. -
Hunt for the Kerbol Bodies =Space Engine Adventure=
Spaceisbeautifulul replied to BigBoy734's topic in The Lounge
Alright, the name of the star(s) (there are four ) is RS 8405-6-8-3521941-256 Edit: Found a Eve looking planet! Star's name: RS 8405-6-6-55193-705 Planet is the eighth from the star. The only downside is that it has rings, but hey, if Eve had rings, it would look beautiful. Plus the rings are not the noticeable. Plus plus, its star is a yellow dwarf, just like Kerbol -
Hunt for the Kerbol Bodies =Space Engine Adventure=
Spaceisbeautifulul replied to BigBoy734's topic in The Lounge
Duna and Ike have been found, their names are: Duna... 22 And 4 Ike... 22 And 4.1 22 And is their star's name. Considering I like searching around in SpaceEngine regardless, searching for Kerbal Space Program planets seems fun. Sign me up. Edit: I think I found a Tylo-ish body. It is a white moon with craters (it looks like Tylo to me OK?). It is even orbiting a green gas giant! I don't know how to post screenshots from SpaceEngine, because I forgot where I put my SpaceEngine folder, so here's it's name: RS 8405-6-8-3521941-256 2.1 -
The worst? Well my second successful Duna return mission, I derped up the ascent on the lander, and the two ships that needed to dock were orbiting opposite eachother (one orbiting west-east the other east-west). I spend a ton of fuel correcting that and got back on the RCS fuel from the lander. They made it out OK though.
-
Duna around Jool? Hot damn, that would be awesome!
-
No offense, but can we get the bare bones of it and see if we approve/disapprove/see something that can be improved?
-
9/10 I love your Kerbin art, bro.

How long can you glide?

I think I made a lame challenge. If any moderators are here feel free to close it if you'd like. -
I Wonder if Kerbals use Kerbal Space Program

How long can you glide?
Spaceisbeautifulul replied to Spaceisbeautifulul's topic in KSP1 Challenges & Mission ideas
Ok here are rules. 1: It may not be controlled 2: You cannot say "It will glide forever bro" if it glides for more than 10 minutes, then we'll talk And kudos: Have a kerbal ride and survive Get to 1 kilometer in hight Glide 1 Kilometer away from the space center I would do more but I am not feeling well. Have fun all. -
Ideas for launch: 1: Balloon launch Pros... Small amount of fuel expended Cons... Costs time, limit on payload size (maybe assemble it in orbit like every good Eeloo lander?), May cost more depending on rocket design? Standard rocket launch: I love this picture... Ok, I'm sorry, but I will get back to this more in depth, and more stuff on Monday, I don't feel so well, I'm gonna take the weekend off.

Oh believe me, I've read some of the entries. I know.
-
Thank you Grove.

I was testing a plane for another challenge, when I came across the phenomenon known, as the infi-glider: The question, and challenge, is how long can a infi-glider glide? Mine happened to be a healthy three minutes, twenty one seconds: So, how long will YOURS glide? *insert commercial outro music here* Leader boards 1: Me! (so far) 2: 3: Oh, and have fun.

NASA Authorization Bill of 2013
Spaceisbeautifulul replied to NASAFanboy's topic in Science & Spaceflight
This, this is important! -
I dunno, so far it looks like the team is us. If it comes down to us only, I vote for high Venus orbit.
-
And so the hunt for Jool begins...
-
I think the two that I like the most in that list is either high Venus orbit, or the Lagrangian points. But that's just me.
-
Destination ideas: (I'll leave out some small moons, so if you have interest in one of them, please say so) Mercury: Pros... Nothing really Cons... Hot (could contribute to many issues), not very large, small atmosphere (no aerobraking), large ammount of DV to get down to its level of orbit, let alone get into orbit. Venus: Pros... Small amount of DV to its level of orbit, Thick atmosphere, Reasonable size Cons... Surface deadly in many ways (google it?) Moon: I assume this is a lame option Earth: " " Mars: Pros... Small amount of DV to get to its level of orbit, Atmosphere (enough to cause trouble when landing, and enough to aerobrake, but not enough to slow us down), Easiest landscape to live on Cons... Small atmosphere, parachute landing not an option (Google it if you disagree) Jupiter: Cannot land on Europa: Pros... Reasonable size, Not many hazards on surface Cons... Very cold, Small atmosphere Io: Pros... Reasonable size Cons... Deadly atmosphere, extreme radiation (due to being close to Jupiter), many hazards on surface, Volcanoes (VERY large ones, enough to destroy something in orbit, at the most, certainly enough to destroy a ground base Ganymede: Pros... Not much Cons... Small atmosphere, Very large, hazardous surface Saturn: Not able to land on Titan: Pros... Atmosphere, reasonable size, small possibility of life Cons... Surface hazards (methane, ethane, radiation, etc.) Rhea: Pros... Small size (but not small enough to be a problem, enough to be a bonus!), far enough from Saturn to not be effected by radiation Cons... Small atmosphere, Rings (collisions in orbit hazard?) Uranus: Not able to land on Neptune: Not able to land on Triton: Pros... Small possibility of life, Reasonable size, Far enough from Neptune to prevent radiation hazards Cons... Small atmosphere, Very cold Now, yes I know that I've left out obvious things, such as Saturn's rings (which is important to note could be a hazard when rendezvousing with some moons, especially the smaller ones, it could be a problem for orbits as well, probes, and coming in for aerobraking), or the gas giant's extreme aerobraking capability. But those are obvious and would mean more trouble to write in. So again, this isn't full information on everything, or accurate, or any of that, but it should help us come to a decision on what planet/moon. I think I did good on this one too. *shameless self promotion*

101+ reasons why we are not NASA
Spaceisbeautifulul replied to CaptinKornflake's topic in Forum Games!
312: That distinctive sound of explosions is music to our ears. 313: We do a reentry with no parachutes and land our crew on their heads. -
Just a nice little explosion that happened while testing my ion drive. Here yar go:

To jettison the fairing?
