  1. Wanted for Research: College students (ages 18-23) who played Kerbal Space Program and/or Factorio when they were in High School. Participants will be entered into a raffle for one of three $10 Amazon gift cards. Key participant criteria: • Currently age 18-23. • Currently enrolled in college and pursuing a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM). • Played Kerbal Space Program and/or Factorio between the ages of 15 through 18, inclusive, and playing these games influenced your decision to pursue a STEM degree. Study Information: This study investigates how playing video games that use Science, Technology, Engineering, or Math (STEM) as their core mechanic motivates adolescents to pursue a STEM degree. The goal of this qualitative study is to publish findings for career development professionals to understand how STEM games can build interest in STEM careers. This novel research will open the door for future similar studies. If you are selected to participate in the research you will fill out a written-response survey about your motivations to pursue a STEM degree. The survey has six questions that require paragraph-long written responses, estimated time to complete 30-60 minutes. This research is anonymous and completely voluntary, you may stop at any time. If Interested: Please read the consent form and complete the screening questionnaire If you have any questions, please comment on this post below or send a private message. Thank you for your time; I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon.

  3. Here is my cosplay. Link to how I made it.
  4. Here is my costume. Not perfect, but a good start. http://imgur.com/a/Dondo
  5. You have to quantify "doing best." Do you want the fastest acceleration, then the top ship. You want the greatest delta-V, then the bottom. Install Kerbal Engineer or MechJeb and it will calculate these things, and more, for you.
  6. Awesome mod that adds complexity, I like it. One problem I have is the mod will slow down attempts to time warp above 1000x. (I also have deadly re-entry (ver 2), Mechjeb, and Interstellar installed, but the problem only occurs when TAC Life Support is active on manned missions). Every time I increase warp past 1000x the game knocks me back to 1000x. Any work around for this or something I'm doing wrong? Pic of ship included for reference.
