Back To Basics (Season 1)

KSP | Back to Basics | 01 | Check Your Staging

After over 5 Years away from Kerbin, watch as we work through career mode in Kerbal Space Program. Their have been a lot of changes to the game over the years, watch as with a little understanding and less skill we try to get out of the atmosphere, reach orbit and travel to new moons and planets. On the way their will be mistakes, so please comment and give your advice as we go.

 

 

Enjoy the classic KSP clips at the start.... its amazing what you dig up when your looking through old computers

KSP | Back to Basics | 02 | Val.....NO!!

After managing to get off the ground, now its time to get out of the atmosphere.... step forward the bravest and the best..... and if you could explain this parachute thing.....

 

 

The Journey is harder than I expected.... its amazing how things change over the years.

KSP | Back to Basics | 03 | Go for Orbit!

It’s time to go for orbit, in a craft named in honour of fallen Komraids we set out to circle this small green dot.....

KSP | Back to Basics | 04 | To the Mun....Moon....Mun

Today we choose to go to the moon.... not because its easy.... but because its..... Kerbal?

 

If someone could please tell me how to stop calling it the Moon (as opposed to the moon...)

KSP | Back to Basics | 05 | Orbit means ORBIT!

We have stared at the Mun, we have got close to the Mun, now its time to make sure its actually round, and not stuck to the sky with blutack... If we can remember what we are up their to do that is...

 

How easy is it to forget why you are their when you have all the science to do!

Since your vids are helpful instruction rather than simply entertaining, the thread has been moved to the Tutorials subforum. And thank you for doing so much work on behalf of other players.

KSP | Back to Basics | 06 | Rendezvous Roulette

So its that time... after 5 years I have to try and put two craft 'near' each other, watch as I completely forget what a Hohmann transfer is.... (think I need to make my own tutorial just on that)...... and how I burn fuel like it doesn't matter....

 

Dont worry, I do know how to do this properly, but after 5 years its easy to loose your head in the moment... a perfect example of 'green vision '

KSP | Back to Basics | 07 | Docking should be the Difficult bit...
 

Docking for the first time in years, forgetting the controls.... what could go wrong? Obviously not what you expect!

 

 

[seyMonsters]

KSP | Back to Basics | 08 | Footsteps on the Mun
 

The Mun is a barren rock, now its time to try making it messy with some footprints.... for the first time since KSP was in Alpha we try to land on the Mun, and maybe plant a flag?

KSP | Back to Basics | 09 | Minmus Sorbet
 

The Snacks are fine but time for desert... sorbet is best from Minmus they said.... guess it’s time for a visit.... what could possibly go wrong!

KSP | Back to Basics | 10 | Double Scoop of Minmus
 

We loved the taste so much we are heading back for seconds! This time with a two kerbal crew and a rover.... what could go wrong?

KSP | Back to Basics | 11 | Kerbostationary Kommunication

So this 'KerbNet' Thing seems important? With only 6 episodes of Season 1 left we set out to build some sort of communications system before stepping towards the other planets in Season 2

KSP | Back to Basics | 11 | Mischievous Mun

We return to the Mun with Jeb and Bob in the hunt for science, its a bigger craft, but the team are experienced, a normal day in Kerbal Space program and then home for dinner?

Science Saves lives...... sometimes just the act of doing it..

[seyMonsters]

KSP | Back to Basics | 13 | Docking and Deliverance

With More and more of the crew stranded around Kerbin its time to get them home and make preparations for Season 2 (can't have a season 2 without any crew!). Nacott Kerman has been in space 68 days, its time to bring our hero home..... lets hope it was more successful than last time we tried it....

 

 

 

With Jeb stranded on the Mun and Val resting in the boosters on the astral plane we need to bring some experience back to Kerbin.... Nacott your time has come!

[seyMonsters]

KSP | Back to Basics | 14 | Minmus Science Station

Time to send the new team out to get some science.... what’s all this science stuff scattered around for? Oh I see so it does it for us?

KSP | Back to Basics | 15 | Interplanetary Nacott

Sticking a toe into interplanetary space, then just like a hot bath, pulling it back out again.... quickly!

 

The Penultimate Episode of season 1 sees us going further than ever before, and only one Kerbal is up to the task.... but he is stuck orbiting the Mun....
