I've some spare minutes, so.. ENTRY 2-TWO BURNS FOR THE MUN Here we go! Now a trasfer-burn is what we need to go inside the Mun orbit, something around 8-850 m/s of Delta V Well done! See you later home sweet home! (note: it's kinda a perfect gravity assist, don't you think?) Ok! It's time to show the payload and to free it from his areodinamic container; as usal Jebediah is the only one that think that this dangerous manouvre is quite fun... Errr...she's not so sexy, but I hope it work enought to bring my crew back to home. After the CSM, it's time to free also the landing module. Althougt, before we need to practise a little with docking... Bill has some doubts about the lander that he will pilot, evaluating her by a look throught the small window...Come on, Bill! Where is your courage? Away from the third stage Ok crew! are you ready for the braking burn? Mun Eternal Beauty Well done! It's exactly what Iwas looking for Stay tuned for news and have a good day!

Hmmmmm...I've not seen a lot of stock-part plane... Great thread idea, however!

Nothing is perfect-it's just the better that someone can do! I think it doesn't exist and that the real challenge is to make one that is the most similar possible!

Hi everyone. I want to narrate a story. If you want to read it, sit down and have fun! - Thescientist ENTRY 1-GO FOR ORBIT Let's start! That's the rocket, the MunLight I: Ready for liftoff! Now I need something to listen. something like... Booooorn in the USA Booooorn in the USA... I'm ready. Jeb, Bob, Bill, are you ready? Yes? Ok! Countdown...10...9...8...7... 6...5...ignition sequence started...3...2...1...LIFTOFF! Booster exausted. Jettison them, Mechjeb! quiet ascend... Suddendly AAAAAAAAAARGH:0.0:! I lost the main engine due to a stuctural failure! What I can do? Abort? What... STOP. Think. Free gimbal, first. Second, change the ascent path. Then... tranfer fuel? No, it's too much dangerous. I can only hope that the second stage is able to solve this problem... Ok, second stage... Annnnnnnd.....YES [looooooooooong breath]! The well-designed second stage solved the problem of the ugly first one, and still with a lot of fuel (around 1/5). I'm going to remember that during the MunLight II project. I need a better first stage, or my kerbonauts will never see agein their sweet home. Finally, the orbit and the end of the second stage. Thank you so much, you saved the whole mission! I'll never teminate your debris! Then? Wait, reader. Stay tuned for the next entry and have a good day! P.s. I forgot to say two things: first, write everything you think about the rocket, the mission and all the suggestion that you belive that may be useful (yeah, I mean suggestions); second, I'm not the best writer, so let me know what mistakes I've done...I hope to learn something!

Prova di caricamento immagine! Ok, funziona! Ecco la mia ultima missione (finalmente finita!): http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/showthread.php/47532-MunDust-II-my-first-manned-Mun-landing-with-hardmode-with-accident-and-soundtrack!?p=615125#post615125

Very good challenge! I always thought that were impossible to recover the three famous astronaut from this scenario! (yeah, with DRE the whole ship blow up during the reentry)

remember that an object in orbit IS IN FREEFALL, but his tangential speed generate a virtual force (centrifugal force) that keep it on his trajectory

I seem like a kraken attack but the unusual thing is that he's still alive. I think that recover the Brave kerbonaut is an interesting challenge

I love to think that a simulator is a sort of "alternative real life", so I fell so sad if a pilot or an astronaut die during a flight, because I imagine his virtual life as a real one. Said that, I usually follow the "safety first" rule. Since .20 I started to add escape sequence, to build escape pod,... Now I can say that is quite an interesting challenge make a safe rocket and I like it a lot. So, HAVE FUN! Are you sad if they lose their virtual byte? Be happy when your rocket is safe! Remember that even NASA has a bad record, but as that big boss of the space flight learn from your mistakes and go where nobody has been before! Post scriptum: sorry for the horrible American and good flight!

Benvenuto Valkar! Argo mi ha battuto sul tempo, quindi non mi resta che augurarti buoni voli P.s. Se mastichi giusto un pelo l'inglese, puoi trovare qui dei tu torial che ti potrebbero far comodo: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/showthread.php/28352-The-Drawing-Board-A-library-of-tutorials-and-other-useful-information?highlight=drawing+board

wow! it's your First Post? it's a fantastic one

C'è di peggio... A me disconnette la tastiera o il mouse a volte

purtroppo, hai ragione. tuttavia ritengo che la nuova "soluzione anti-malori" non sia la cosa peggiore... al momento sto litigando con la Ferram Aerospace Research perchè non riesco ad atterrare senza andare in pezzi scusate, come si aggiunge la firma alla fine di ogni post?

Fantastic! does it work with FAR, DRE and modular fuel system?

Well, does modular fuel system work properly?

Errrr.... Anyone known if there will be a .21 upgrade?

Alleluia! Finito il dramma del chiedere aiuto in inglese... Schezo:)! Benvenuto in questa gabbia di matti, comunque!

Yahooooooooooo! 0.21 ! 0-.-2-1 finalmente! L'unico peccato è che per le mod bisogneràaspettare ancora un po'

LOL scusa, ho sbagliato a calcolare il fuso orario Fra parenetesi, la ambita .21 è giàstata finita, ma è ancora ( ) nella fase di rilascio alpha (cioè distribuita in numero limitatissimo, al fine di scovare gli errori più evidenti)

Speriamo sia tempo bene speso:) Sinceramente mi aspettavo che lo rilasciassero a fine maratona ksp

Benvenuto! Aggiungo solo un paio di cose a quanto detto da Argo: 1) ti sconsiglio di usare autopiloti (es mechjeb) fino a quando non avrai bene imparato le meccaniche del gioco perché non ti insegnano NULLA e, eccetto per alcune operazioni come gli atterraggi di precisione, sono più inefficienti di chiunque abbia un minimo di pratica. 2) se ami la matematica, sfrutta la tua passione, altrimenti gioca intuitivamente. Fai come ti piace di più ! 3) imparare a pilotare e ad usare l'editor richiede tempo: non scoraggiarti se i primi risultati non saranno soddisfacenti - persevera! 4) se vuoi provere delle mod, fai una copia del gioco e installale su quella, in maniera da non "sporcare" l'originale In quanto a tutorial ti consiglio di dare un occhiata a questa raccolta: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/entry.php/445-The-Drawing-Board-A-library-of-tutorials-and-other-useful-information Mi dispiace, ma non ho trovato nulla in italiano, piuttosto se hai problemi guardati le guide scritte In bocca al lupo! P.s. Scusate per gli errori, sto scrivendo da un cellulare...

perfettamente d'accordo

Well, no one that is reading that post has an answer for the first question?

Thanks for the mod, it looks so complete. I tried to use the autopilot of Mechjeb and I discovered that the Human mind is quite better in a lot of things! I'll also check the CoL and the CoM position, but I think they are in the right place, because I've downloaded the craft files (my planes are quite horrible )

Well, it's time for me to do something harder than before, so I have some questions 1. How can I land at the KSC runway with my plane? 2. I often lose control of my SSTO and the ASAS doesn't help me (as usual ). What I MUST do to evitate that? (note: it usually happens if I activate ASAS, controlling it manually this situation is quite more manageable) 3. It's time to get another planet! Please, can someone say to me some tips for the rocket? It's better to download mechjeb? Finally, there is a good launch windows calendar? 4. spatial shooting gallery...can someone write down some tips to hit the target (an equatorial orbit on one other planet) using less fuel possible? Thanks for the answers!
