Hello Fellow Astronauts

[Reggae]

Hi,

About a week ago I went to see the Martian and having had my imagination fired up I started to search the internet for space colonization games and up popped the Kerbal Space Program. I downloaded the demo and after 1 death and six additional launches I finally managed to build a rocket, take off , run out of fuel, land and recover my vehicle. That was fun!

I am just about to buy the full version but yesterday I came across something called KerbalEdu. As its over 50 years since I did a science lesson I thought it might add to my kerbal experience to do some learning as well. Can anyone tell me if the KerbalEdu version of the program is essentially the same as the KSP one except for the additional educational bits? If anyones tried it I'd welcome your thoughts.

Thanks

Reggae

Hello Reggae, and welcome to the forums.

AFAIK KerbalEdu is targeted toward classrooms, but I don't have any direct experience with it myself.

I find the forums to be an interesting place to learn a whole bunch about rockets and orbital mechanics among other things.

Happy landings!

Yeah, you can probably learn everything in KerbalEDU on the forums.

Welcome!
