KN-1 Kerbonov Reconnaissance Monoplane
John.E replied to TotallyNotJeb's topic in KSP1 The Spacecraft Exchange
If KSP has even the remotest likeness to RL is simply the lowering of the CoG to a spot clearly below CL. -

Oops. Sorry. I missed the irony -

Did you miss my opening and closing comments? Likening The Wind Rises to The Martian feeble. One could be taken as a historical piece (which it should not be, hence my post) the other never in a month of Sundays. Ah well, don't let actually reading a post get in the way of a good snipe -

Not quite historical, but a great film none the less. Jiro was married, his wife did not die, had a brother not a sister, he had children. There are a lot of other possible inaccuracies too, be your own judge. But the flying is great and most of the aircraft history is solid from what I have read. Oh, and don't miss Porco Rosso too -
I am sure it is possible but here it is anyways

Rosetta, Philae and Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.

Pah! Typical! Real Life slowing me down again and 'search' not showing high enough up the results list -

Other interesting rocks in space ... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-28632264. Oh, and while I remember, why are all these posts not on the original thread dated Jan 2014? Way too much spam here -
Orbit (if you can call it that) now confirmed Sweet

Just over an hour to go until Rosetta begins her maneuver to orbit 67P. Wow :) Isn't science just great?

Very cool project, 10 years in space, last 3.5 of them 'sleeping' and it wakes up within 43 minutes of the allocated time 5,000,000 miles to go and if all goes will drop a lander onto a tumbling bit of rock and ice with gravity at 1/1000th of Earth.

What is the absolutely first game you remember playing?

3D Monster Maze, ZX81 with 16K RAM pack (fixed the 'wobble' with BluTack) -
Rocketbuilding as a hobby... What is allowed in you country?
John.E replied to Elthy's topic in Science & Spaceflight
UK legal is a PITA. you can buy all the required making for black power or rocket candy but to actually make black powered you need a fire arms licence and as far as I can find to produce your own rocket candy is considered bomb making! Shame really. You could just trundle along and play but if someone took exception to your playing you could be toast (from a legal standpoint). If others have more info be glad to hear it. -
What else is there to say other than Rosetta has woken up and phoned home. Sweet, let the dance among the stars begin

What irks you the most about movie space travel?
John.E replied to Tex's topic in Science & Spaceflight
Magic or failing that the fact that all the navigation and gyro systems came from one supplier -
Cute :0 Oh, from South Wales too, that has got to rate for double Cute then
