Actually our technology would support building one on Mars the only issue would be getting it to Mars.

Actually I use Minmus as my world for screwing around. With its low gravity and its proximity to Kerbin it enables unrealistic projects to take place in sandbox. Also to counter your argument on it being too easy it does require some skill to get there compared to the mun which has no inclination. Flying to Minmus becomes more guess work then anything for a beginner that doesn't factor in inclination which is something I didn't factor in.

Actually Kerbals can be quite violent. There’s been a considerable amount of controversy status of Eeloo as being a proper planet or just a lump of ice going around the sun. The debate is still ongoing, as most academic summits held to address the issue have devolved into, on good days, petty name calling, and on worse ones, all-out brawls.  Kerbal Astronomical Society

I believe we are going to see contracts from various companies with rather humorous names with distinct logos asking us to perform varying space missions such as satellite launches or surface samples from various planets. I doubt we are going to see or see many aircraft related missions. If anything the contract is more of an end requirement and I bet the fun part is getting it to where it has to go.

I've only been to Dres once legit with a probe and I've never made it to Eeloo without cheating. I'm going to have to say Dres is more lonely. Not only is it skipped by most space programs but there is nothing there that we know of and it feels like a large version of the Mun.

I like the idea as something Squad might release in update 0.30 when space stations and maybe surface bases serve some purpose then having a lot of people present could help.

The main reason against procedural generated solar systems is they don't want players to travel to a different solar system and say "hey have you been to planet x". Friend replies "Planet x? I've never even seen that but I have planet y." It creates a bit of an odd situation and Easter eggs couldn't be implemented

This could be implemented after .24 as an additional contract/mission which results in a science bonus if you land in a specific biome which could prove if the Astronomy dept's initial analyze was correct.

Will I win if I make the Borg Cube?

Biggest advice is to go to Minmus and work on docking there. Everything is much easier and slower for those that struggle with docking it is where I built my first station. Fuel requirements are low and there is no risk of falling into the atmosphere.

Mine is obviously one way missions I have yet to rescue my Duna manned mission in a bizarre orbit when it was trying to get back to its transfer stage. Really messed that one up.

You sir are amazing! I think everybody on the forums would download these craft.

I made one into a Minmus orbit station. I didn't really use it but it makes sense to have especially if you are far from Kerbin.

At 10,000 metres I make a 45 degree turn heading at 90 degrees. If my ship ways a lot or it doesn't have very good thrust then my turn isn't as steep.

Could I build the whole thing in orbit then bring it down?
