A teapot in space

I think it would be fun if someone add this as a novelty mod, kind of like how Universe Sandbox has a teapot as a possible thing you can spawn. Just a teapot, smaller than a kerbal, orbiting around the sun like an asteroid. Nothing more.

If the game doesn't allow such small object to be spawned naturally like asteroids, then as a tiny novelty part is fine too, so we can just launch it to space for fun. Or maybe to set up a picnic in the most epic way on the Mun.

This would honestly be a fun little easter egg.

Good luck 'bumping' into that.

The teapot is already in the game, maybe you can't see it, but I assure you it is there.

Good one.

I was thinking something along the way of a marked object after you upgrade the final tracking station though (can you spawn an unmarked object orbiting space?). The tea pot would spawn randomly as one of the asteroids, probably A class because there is no smaller classification and kerbals are considered A class at first too I think.

Actually now I'm imagining an entire Radio Gnome mod...

The day will come when someone actually does go and place a teapot in orbit between Earth and Mars in RL for the lulz. Also, hello fellow Ubox lover!

More seriously though, (and to actually be on topic), if you don't mind tweakscales buggyness, you could try creating a tiny craft thing that sort of looks like a teapot using tweakscale.

my thought is that even if you would by accident stumble upon such teapot in your travel, it would probably be while being smashed by it to pieces and you wouldnt even know what hit you

(you know, diffrences between orbital velocities)

A teapot as a command seat...

You just need an elongated conical (and green) hat as a prop and we're there.

P.S. You is the best Allen album.
