Hi! I'm the author of the Atomic Rockets website.

I deeply apologize for taking so long to award Kerbal Space Program with the Atomic Rockets Seal of Approval. I had looked at the program a long time ago, but back then my computer was so antiquated that it really could not run the program. Just recently I got a better computer and I tried KSP again.

I am totally dumbfounded at the elegance of KSP. It is the most astonishing educational astronautical software I have ever seen. Players get an intuitive feel for many rocketry concepts and constraints. Plus the addictive nature of the game keep players coming back for more. Much better at teaching than, say, Orbiter.

I'm still a rank beginner at playing the game, but that will change.

I can't believe I'm the first person who gets to reply!

I'm a longtime fan of your site, and I'm so happy to see that you like KSP as well.

Kerbal space program has regular middle-school kids throwing around terms like "Delta-V", and "Oberth Effect" for the first time, and one can only hope that it sparks some careers in aerospace, (and maybe science fiction too).

I'll take this opportunity to say thanks for building and maintaining the Atomic Rockets site. The Kerbal forums can only benefit from having you aboard!

Happy Launching

Yes, that is the one. I didn't want to toot my own horn.
