Planet Ideas And Names For The Future Of Kerbal Space Program
Black_sod replied to Dead Pixel's topic in KSP1 Discussion
I think I'd like some sort of Titan equivalent, larger than Moho, with atmosphere and ludicrously low temperatures with lakes of hydrocarbons, (which could be used for fuel for colonies or something?). I like the proposed submarine nasa have been talking about and would love some planets to send some submersible craft to explore -
Hi all! Wondering if anyone here has taken part in a challenge based KSP competition? The computers society and astronomy society are working together to host a competition for all comers. I'm super excited and was just wondering if anyone had any experience with something like this and could give me some prep advice? Thanks I'm already working on Vtol Ssto's as it was hinted that they'd be part of at least one challenge

What life looks like on other planets? (scientific discussion)
Black_sod replied to tetryds's topic in Science & Spaceflight
Just want to point out that this isn't MY definition of life, merely what I have been taught as the stance of biologists. I consider virus' to be alive, an AI? Depends I'd have to meet it first. reproduction I maintain is something key to the definition of life. I remember seeing some programme about this which alluded to forms of life as exotic as clouds of gas particles in a gas giant, or in an Ian Banks book he briefly describes organisms that life along plasma streams in stars also why not space-whales /krakens -
In a previous file he had just stepped out onto the surface of eve.. when Bill fell down a latter and flattened him.. unfortunate to say the least

checked all above coordinates and there's no sign dunno what's wrong! -
putting the wheels in a separate part under the modules is brilliant, I'd had trouble making sure that the clamps between modules were at the right height!! thanks a lot!!

one of my biggest face-palm moments in a long while

yeah I later realised that when one engine didn't have fuel and the other two did.. horribly asymmetrical .. had to google it though had only seen it in videos -
one of my biggest face-palm moments in a long while
Black_sod posted a topic in KSP1 Mission Reports
It was my first mission aimed at landing on Moho, all was going to plan. I reckoned I had enough fuel to decelerate and be captured by it and to land my three brave pioneers on the surface. I came close to my periapsis and started my 5 or so minute burn. the engines cut out after ten seconds.. WHAT?! I start to panic, clicking and unclicking resources, fuel tanks anything! then I see that the central tank is fully fueled.. but the tanks with engines are completely empty.. I hadn't placed fuel lines... There was nothing for it but to spam science before the craft got slung out into deep space so devastating -
I'm a vet who's been trying very hard to avoid planes the bane of my existence. I've always found a way to get rockets to do a planes (job more or less). I'll definitely look ya up if i decide to branch out
