On the Kerbal website news list, has anyone else noticed...

[Justicier]

It seems that there is a picture of a Magnetoplasmadynamic drive as a backdrop to every news thumbnail. Now, seeing as this is the official kerbal website we're talking about, it seems odd to have an engine pictured that isn't even in the game in its current version. I did a search of the forum for info and didn't see anything... has anyone else noticed this? Has there been a devnote on it that has slipped by me?

Nice catch.

The model seems to be one from the Near Future Tech mod.

Definitely looks similar to Near Future Tech's 1.25m Magnetoplasmadynamic engine, but the texturing is different... it has a definite "stock" flavor to it.

That's been there since the website was overhauled. Nobody seems to know what's up with it.

Hmmm...new texture for the ion engine?

Or something...different? *x-files theme*

I knew someone else would find out about it. It was just a matter of time...

Maybe this is the REAL Easter egg we were supposed to spend a month trying to find.

No, there has to be one of these on the magic boulder that has become a Dresteroid
