What did you do in KSP1 today?

[Cols]

I landed sideways on purpose and survived

[GusTurbo]

I made some tweaks to my Micro Apollo, which I'll be releasing soon.

I launched a 7-ship flotilla for Laythe. This brings my total of ships currently en route on various interplanetary trips to 18: 7 for Laythe, 6 for Vall, 3 for Duna, 1 for Eeloo, and 1 coming home from Duna. There are also currently probes (usually at least 2) at every planet and moon except Bop and Tylo and there's a station with a lander at Duna and a Kethane operation on Ike.

A friend and I started a competitive career-mode multiplayer match which turned into a race to a manned fly-by of the Mun. Both of our first shots failed, with mine disintegrating when starting the second stage and his making a successful fly-by but running out of fuel with a high Kerbin orbit, forever stranded.

My second shot made a good fly-by with periapsis of the Mun at 17km and a good return trajectory after departing the Mun. That returned with 240+ science and a ticker-tape parade.

His next flight was a rescue mission of the stranded Kerbal which also failed.

I roffled.

I also wanna caption this "Me on my way to steal yo girl"

I went to Eloo for the first time:

[John Crichton]

Spent the past few days working on a 5.5k deltaV Kethane lander allowing me to refuel my ship on route during my grand tour. Having done that, I just realised something that makes me feel really stupid...

Instead of designing a ridiculously huge lander, I should have designed a 2-stage lander leaving the Kethane refueling station on the surface when ascending again. That way I can use KAS and simply use those lower lander sections as "gas stations". Means my lander can be smaller and easier to work with...and it will be able to carry more fuel up to orbit. Plus, if I ever come back, I can use the same fueling station again.

Back to the drawing board...

Two things:

First off, if you set a limit to the servos you won't have to worry about making the wings level when extended.

Second, what mod gives the lights? I'm still trying to figure that out.

Or, assign one of your action groups to "Move Center" for the joints. I use that for my own configurable flyers

Also: that was a BEAUTIFUL flare-out on that landing!

That is awesome - great idea

[Mr.Rocket]

I went to Duna, for less (see the challenge)

I wrote a guide to doing flotilla missions.

[fastbikkel]

Tried to see if i could still rendesvouz and dock.

Oh and i was succesful.

Now this may sound like a joke but i am dead serious. I had no confidence enough, so i had to try again to make sure i get it.

[Sido]

I'm made a telecom Deep Space Station for hestia :

[Immashift]

I went to the mun last night for fun...

Flawless victory.

[vetrox]

Been playing with the Real solar system mod and flying IVA only. Good fun...but really hard. I can just about et a 1 man ship to the moon.

This ship with about 12km/s of dv in total

Just to get this command module into lko (250k km) to release 2 small science probes.

However the same lifter does get a small ship to the moon. Kerbin is so tiny from out there.

[MaverickSawyer]

Finished a station to support a small fleet of SSTO spaceplanes I'm designing. They'll be used mostly for hauling crews and "mail" to and from orbit, with a different set of ships used for long haul transport missions, landings, refuellings, etc.

[StrandedonEarth]

Made my first Tylo landing!!

What? Dillan is alive, isn't he? Unfortunately, he has all the Jool system science in the lander can with him. On my next quickload attempt I'll move it to the science can first, since he'll probably be stranded there

[OggBert]

Gregbree Keman (my favorite test pilot) took the Manta spaceplane to orbit.

[Wooks]

I made a video demonstration of my VTOL Flatbed Carrier "Hermes" and his companion Rover "Marathon", a match made in heaven for planets with athmosphere.

I launched a kethane probe to Gilly. In the process I broke my extreme aerobraking record, when the probe plunged into Eve's atmosphere at 9370 m/s.

These long-distance probes are fun to play with, because they have enough delta-v to not care too much about launch windows.

[Commissar]

well, today, i fount that turning off one magnet when loading a horizontal module causes my module transport rover to magically flip into the air, despite my use of outriggers

[irongut]

Yesterday my Twin Ion Engine Probe finally reached its solar periapsis and I executed a 1.5 hour burn to circularise its orbit just outside Moho's orbit. It wasn't too bad with 4x warp.

Then I redesigned my Trident general purpose lander. The Mk 1 met spec for delta v, science capabilities, etc but a test flight to the Mun had shown manoueverability issues when landing. A complete redesign led to the Mk 2, with slightly more delta v.

Today I took the Trident Mk2 lander for a test flight. A launcher was constructed with enough delta v to put the lander into LKO and Bob (short for Kate) Kerman climbed aboard. This would be Bob's first mission to space, destination Minimus. The Trident Mk2 flew from LKO to Minimus and landed perfectly on the Slopes. Bob congratulated the engineers back at KSC on their design. A few experiments and a Min walk later the Trident returned to Kerbin. Aerobraking was successful and the lander splashed down just east of the Island Airfield. A resounding success and the first step to putting a Kerbal on another planet.

Notice a lack of RCS on the design.
