test flying my Orion spacecraft.

Also for some reason F1 isn't working for screenshots, or at least I can't figure out where their going. It used to work until 0.20. I took these with PrintScreen.

F1 does work, they go to %KSP_ROOT%\Screenshots. On my system, they're in D:\KSP_win\Screenshots, and I have taken some in .20 so I know it still works. I've got the first Jebediah Pickens photo in .20 to prove it! :D

cross-posted from the re-entry thread, since it's relevant here. :D

I decommissioned several older craft to make room for the new today. Lots of images!

My old MKI station, the KSS was retired. It didn't have any propulsion to de-orbit, so I had to send up an assembly tug to give it a gentle push.

It came in shallow and broke up early, right over KSC at night, giving the ground crews a light show.

Burning up passing the island airstrip on its way out to sea.

Prototype X was retired, having fulfilled its purpose as a forerunner for the new class of frigate, now titled KDV Ambition. Here it is shedding its solar panels while trying to keep the nose up on re-entry.

2013_05_24_00020.jpg

The light show really was spectacular.

Look at the SIZE of that thing!

With flames still licking at the trusses, the crew module ejects, cleaving the ship in two.

Using its RCS thrusters to break free of the doomed vessel, it flies over the sensor tower.

and deploys its parachutes as the nose falls downward and the ship plummets to Kerbin.

2013_05_24_00036.jpg

The fireworks hadn't ended yet.

miraculously, a rover survives the crash and wheels free of the wreckage to join the crew.

This heavy interplanetary tug was commissioned immediately before the completion of the new Clamp-o-tron Sr, and was made obsolete before the end of its first week. Here it is being decommissioned to make way for the new and improved model.

Burns like a star.

The Deep Space Station Explorer I was decommissioned following the discovery of missing safety equipment: the jeb seat lacked a seatbelt. It's also being cleared to make room for the MK II, which will be deployed with the -correct- mission flags.

2013_05_24_00070.jpg

Check out that crazy debris trail.

2013_05_24_00073.jpg

The chutes, the chutes, the chutes are on fire. We don't need no water....

This little test bus of mine, which I've been trying to make to ship Kerbals around, broke my camera and then flung me off of Kerbin and gave me this

Apparently i was going about 38x the speed of light, and they say it isn't possible, PAH!

I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid we can't view those pictures.

Jeb has a new toy.

It's got an insane lift to weight ratio. Even though it has a very limited amount of fuel, once in the air it can glide for quite a long distance.

(If you know how it can take-off on 'infini-glide')

.craft please! :cool:

By special request here it is: Jebediah's Ultralight.

Be sure to turn precision control ON [Caps Lock], the use of avionics is advised but not mandatory and be very gentle with the throttle. You only have a very small fuel supply and you need even less.

To uses 'infini-glide' start rolling the plane left and right [Q] [E] on the runway to pick up speed. Once you have enough speed the either the left or right wheel starts to lift. At that moment you'll want to pull up. Keep pitching and rolling to gain more speed and altitude.)

Just because Jeb is on a mission to rescue Bill, doesn't mean he can't have fun!

Jeb and friends took a holiday from space exploring...

*le snip*

Jeb has suggested to strap some SRBs to it, but the other Kerbals managed to hide them in time. Now, I have to find a way to strap something more powerful to bring it to Laythe.

I decided to develop a new, vertically launched spaceplane that was of a reasonably small size but also had huge potential for that size. The result is the Pioneer:

*le snip*

It has the capacity for a Mun fly-by, with fuel left over...

*le snip*

...followed by the capacity to return to Kerbin...

*Also, le snip*

...and land perfectly safely.

Please may I have the craft files?

Hey nightshadow404, make sure you're enclosing your image links in %7Boption%7D tags, or they won't show on the forums. On Imgur, click on one of your pictures. In the image popup, look at the options to the right. There's a line titled "BBCode (message boards & forums)". Click the icon that looks like two pages underneath that title, and Imgur places a ready-to-post version of your links in the clipboard. All you have to do is simply paste into your forums post, and it will be placed with the %7Boption%7D tags already in place so you don't have to worry about them. :)

These are all so very cool! So many great ideas!

Here's my Mun base at Jebediah Valley, at sunrise:

I built the "flipper" class rover to be driven upside-down as well as normally:

It's turned out to be really hardy, so I mostly use it as a spatula: to flip other vehicles over when they end up upside-down, which they so often do on the Mun...
