Why is KSP's skybox texture restricted to the worst DDS format?

The quality drop is unreal. Am I the only one who is having issues with this? Other people's skyboxes don't have this effect so bad.

First of all, please use imgur, gyazo, or another image hosting website that isn't as littered with ads and doesn't make people go through the inconvenience of having to download files onto the user's hard drive. Or, just embed images directly onto the post. And does it actually look so bad in-game?

Yes, it looks that bad in game. I can't find any image hosting website that allows you to upload images as big as these without making an account.
