Have no idea what happened. Cannot see any craft in the SPH nor can I save any craft there.
Can load craft from the runway, not understanding this at all.

I have a question for all of you out there...
Should I wait until all the mods are available that I use in the Kerny Kerman series or work around the ones I still need?
An inquiring mind wants to know...

Yes, it did. I just replied to the thread and am thinking about assembling it as a two course spread. I don't like the idea of popping into manned spaceflight without any sort of pretext. Many of the comments were really moving and I could sense the passion of many about space exploration.
The only problem is the disconnect most have between space exploration and spaceflight. These go hand in hand and in my mind, you cannot have one without the other.
Oh, and got you back...
Jebediah needs a sledge-o-matic!
Mainly Fengist's Maritime Parts mod. I could go forward right now in 1.2 but would have to recall my ships. I currently have five out right now... with two crewed with 10 Kerbals each. I do have 1.1.3 on the desktop, so I could still do it in the previous version and simply wait for the mod.
OPM is later down the road in my narrative. I will say that 1.2 has some really nice things going on, although most of my aircraft fly pretty crappy now.

Hey, folks -
Hang in there with me. I am having to take a trip out of town for research purposes. I'm sorry I have not been on line as much here lately, but when you teach one online class that has 73 students and two regular classes with 45 each, the job demands can get a little rough.
I'll be back next week... and will even share a new chapter of Kerny with you then!

It's a pity I flew only once. A space flight is like a drug - once you experience it, you can't think of anything else.

The next major explosion is going to be when genetics and computers come together. I'm talking about an organic computer - about biological substances that can function like a semiconductor.

Starting later today, I will not be on the forum until Monday, August 22nd. I'm going camping and want to unplug myself for the entire weekend.

To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old problems from a new angle, requires creative imagination and marks real advance in science.
Albert Einstein
Mar 14, 1879 - Apr 18, 1955
Theoretical physicist who developed the general theory of relativity -
There is no way back into the past; the choice, as Wells once said, is the universe or nothing. Though men and civilizations may yearn for rest, for the dream of the lotus-eaters, that is a desire that merges imperceptibly into death. The challenge of the great spaces between the worlds is a stupendous one; but if we fail to meet it, the story of our race will be drawing to its close.

"Science, my lad, is made up of mistakes, but they are mistakes which it is useful to make, because they lead little by little to the truth."

Man must rise above the Earth—to the top of the atmosphere and beyond—for only thus will he fully understand the world in which he lives.

In an era when the nation's collective imagination is no longer captured by space, real science sometimes has a smaller budget than science fiction.

The most exciting phrase to hear in science, the one that heralds new discoveries, is not "Eureka!, I found it!", but "That's funny..."

If we are to send people, it must be for a very good reason - and with a realistic understanding that almost certainly we will lose lives. Astronauts and Cosmonauts have always understood this. Nevertheless, there has been and will be no shortage of volunteers.
Carl Sagan

American astronomer, cosmologist, astrophysicist, astrobiologist, and author -
Science knows no country, because knowledge belongs to humanity, and is the torch which illuminates the world. Science is the highest personification of the nation because that nation will remain the first which carries the furthest the works of thought and intelligence.

This week has turned into a monster week. The plans I had to get things accomplished have been delayed a little. On Monday, at my doctor's appointment, things went well. I have lost 6 pounds (roughly 2.72 Kg). I still have a ways to go (48 pounds or 21.77 Kg). Blood work was good for someone my age and with diabetes. At the optometrist, things didn't go so well...
Anyhow, I am behind on the things I had planned to get done. So here's my new production schedule (if I owe you images, this is when they should be ready):
- Friday: Kerny Kerman's missions report...
- Sunday: SpaceY mission logo image.
- Monday: ZooNamedGames mission logo image.
- Tuesday: Flag Pack (as a mod). There are about 40 flags I owe y'all, and this is about the best way I know to offer them. Not sure if it will be CKAN-able. Once it is completed, you will be able to get it from GITHUB.
- Wednesday: ZooNamedGames: Saturn Shuttle Program mission logos (10 of them)
As I said, it has been a monster week between the required conferences for work, for doctor's appointments, and family obligations. I am hoping that after Saturday things will begin to return to normal.

Earlier today, I realized that it has been four months since my last violation of Forum rule 2.2 - the forbidden content rule. Now before any of you jump up and wonder, I will tell you that I love the art of political discourse. I also have a tendency to jump into a politically baited thread with both feet... which is clearly a violation of Forum Rule 2.2 (and this is why I have received four warnings from various moderators about such comments).
Well, today I was able to NOT take a swing at a low-hanging pitch begging for political commentary... and in celebration of that accomplishment, I present you the newest element of my signature:
20210125: During a signature update, I decided to share with those interested the exact forum rule that gave me the most headaches. I redid the image:

@Souptime - nice music. Are those your original compositions?

This just popped up on my YouTube video recommended feed. Wow, I remember watching this in real time. If you've never seen this video, enjoy!
As a reminder, this launch took place om April 12, 1981 and was the first mission of the STS Columbia.
