I was hoping for a Kerman Crater somewhere, but oh well.
-
What I've done is drag the KerbalGalaxy and Kopernicus folders into GameData, and removed everything from KerbalGalaxy except Plugins and Eravate System (which itself now contains only corona.png and System.cfg). System.cfg now reads: // Eravate System @Kopernicus:AFTER[Kopernicus] { Body { name = Sun flightGlobalsIndex = 705 Template { name = Sun } Properties { mass = radius = description = ScienceValues { } } Orbit { referenceBody = Sun semiMajorAxis = longitudeOfAscendingNode = inclination = color = 0.7,0.3,0.3,0.5 } ScaledVersion { SolarLightColor { sunlightColor = 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 sunlightIntensity = 0.45 scaledSunlightColor = 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0 scaledSunlightIntensity = 0.45 IVASunColor = 1.0, 0.977, 0.896, 1.0 IVASunIntensity = 0.34 sunLensFlareColor = 1.0, 0.2, 0.2, 1.0 sunAU = 13599840256 brightnessCurve { key = -0.01573471 0.217353 1.706627 1.706627 key = 5.084181 3.997075 -0.001802375 -0.001802375 key = 38.56295 1.82142 0.0001713 0.0001713 } } Material { emitColor0 = 0.861,0.404,0.194,1.0 emitColor1 = 0.398,0.071,0.0,1.0 sunspotColor = 0.01,0.003,0.007,1.0 rimColor = 0.626,0.131,0.0,1.0 rimPower = 0 rimBlend = 3 } Coronas { Corona { rotation = 3 speed = 9 updateInterval = 5 scaleLimitX = 5 scaleLimitY = 5 scaleSpeed = 0.8 Material { texture = KerbalGalaxy/Eravate System/corona inverseFade = 2.553731 } } Corona { rotation = 3 speed = 9 updateInterval = 5 scaleLimitX = 5 scaleLimitY = 5 scaleSpeed = 0.8 Material { texture = KerbalGalaxy/Eravate System/corona inverseFade = 2.553731 } } } } } }

Prototype Beast Rail Gun Destroyers

Wow. I would have expected the recoil to send the ship out of control. -
[0.25] Astronomer's Visual Pack - Interstellar V2

That's a separate download: http://www./download/c2wz7d45y27q6pn/BONUS+Biofluorescent+Laythe+DLC.zip -
Is there a way to apply a texture to the Sun?

I'm guessing this wouldn't work well on an actual spaceship. Still, awesome design. -
[1.1.3] Orbital Decay v1.5.2 (17/07/2016) - Total Overhaul
Mitchz95 replied to Whitecat106's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
This looks promising! How does it deal with orbital rendezvous and interplanetary transfer? I'd hate to lose a Dres encounter during the long journey from LKO. -
Nice! Way better looking than my first attempts.
-
The Habitable Exoplanets Catalog lists it as #6, with an ESI of 0.83.
-
The 7x RocketPart Hexcans cost negative funds if you add them empty in the VAB. EDIT: All the RocketPart tanks appear to do this.
-
Just to be clear, this is RSS scaled down to match stock KSP's planet sizes? I might try this...
-
There's already a thread for this, New Horizons. Discussing both the mission and Pluto (and its moons).
-
The former, I believe.
-
I assume we'll be able to perform more detailed searches of nearby stars once we get bigger and better telescopes into orbit. And better methods of blocking out the star's light.
-
Very exciting! Let's not get ahead of ourselves, though. By current definitions, Venus is Earth-like as well.
-
Its ESI is only 0.69? That seems a bit low. I guess they're waiting for more data before they update it.
-
Guess it's a good thing we kept Kepler going. EDIT: Just got cut off.

Soyuz launch - Expedition 44 - successful launch
Mitchz95 replied to Albert VDS's topic in Science & Spaceflight
I think it's just in shadow. EDIT: Upon closer viewing, the sunlight should still be reaching it. But I thought I heard them say it deployed. -
It starts in just half an hour!
-
Forgot one. You could also put the satellite into the planet's L1 Lagrangian point. But it wouldn't be orbiting the planet in that case; it would be orbiting the sun close enough to the planet that its gravity would keep it from drifting away.
-
It would slide and become perpendicular. I've done that kind of thing in KSP before. The only way (that I know of) to keep it between the star and the planet is if the planet is tidally locked, and the satellite is in an equatorial geostationary orbit.
