KSP 0.90 Complete Printable Stock Science Checklists [Updated 06 Mar 2015]

[JAFO]

I posted this in General Discussion before discovering this section.. sorry if I've broken any rules by re-posting here.. Mods, please feel free to fix as you see fit.

Having searched around all the current science-related spreadsheets and checklists available for KSP, I found there isn't a complete, simple and easy-to-use checklist for tracking what science you've done or haven't done. Sure, there's the in-game Science Archives, but they're not exactly convenient to use mid-mission.

Since I was trying to milk the Mun for all the available science at the time, I made up a spreadsheet checklist I could print out, to keep track of what I had and hadn't done. I've now expanded it for all the planets and moons, as well as Kerbol.

Since many experiments need to be performed twice to get 95% (or so) of the available science, those experiments that need it have space to check them off twice. Each planet/moon gets a sheet to itself (except Kerbin/KSC, which needs 4 all told) and is designed to be printed on a single page for ease of use. Each sheet also has some space for notes, which comes in especially handy for planning science-mop-up missions.

I've found the checklists invaluable when planning multi-biome missions.

Barometer and Sensor Array added for bodies with atmospheres.

Black blocks replaced with light grey background with cross-hatching.

Column and row dimensions standardised.

Numerous errors and omissions fixed.

KSC Science Checklist updated

1.0.4 version now released. See this thread for details.

There may be the odd mistake, particularly with the KSC location-biomes and sub-locations, which I haven't fully checked/completed myself, so if anyone spots any, please let me know and I'll correct them ASAP.

Although intended to be printed out, if you have a multi-monitor setup it should be fairly easy to use on-screen, marking them off however suits you best. I've saved them in .ods, .xls and .xlsx formats and bundled all 3 formats together as a zip file which can be downloaded here:

Here's an example of an early version in use for Mun science. The notes relate to how I planned an eight biome mop-up expedition using just 3 lander missions.

I've kept spreadsheets before, but nothing reusable like this. Nice work!

New version uploaded.. download link remains the same.

On checking over my KSC science, I discovered a number of things I'd missed, particularly that EVA reports and temperature scans can be performed whilst flying low above the sub-biomes. New columns have been inserted to allow these to be recorded.
