Where there's small debris or nebular gases. Otherwise, I'm doubtful. Still, it's not a bad question. That's how scientists start off. "Oh, and by space I mean deep space". So like interstellar and intergalactic? Yeah, doubt you'd ever be able to go fast enough to burn up in space.

In a solar system something as large as a hype train moving at near light speeds would probably explode within seconds, given that while there are very few atoms there, it covers so much ground and is going so fast that once it does hit a particle head on it would have a force strong enough to destroy the entire train.

Rithsom Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 The number of posts in this thread has pretty much doubled since Friday. I'm starting to wonder if the post count will exceed what it was in the 1.0 Hype Train thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this is an exponentially growing number of posts until 1.1? 4 days to double now, two days next, one day after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zamite Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Well, given what I have seen in streams so far these 1.1 experimentals are way more stable than KSP ever was. And given that, I'd say it looks pretty close to ready for a pre-release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
