What is the Meaning of Life in KSP?

[That guy who builds stuff]

build rockets, see them explode before you, and hear the lamentation of your pilots

[Rowsdower]

To boldly go where no Kerbal (in your save) has gone before, then return to rescue the one that got there first.

To find the ultimate question for the answer 42

I came here just to say that...

[Taki117]

Hmmm... With it's diminutive size, I wonder if the answer to Life in the Kerbol system is 4.2

Nope, it's 26.88 (42 x .64)

[Bothersome]

the answer to the meaning of life the universe and everything

42

but what was the question? no one remembers.

If I remember correctly, and it has been a long time now since it was posed...

"What it is the maximum number of joys one could get from 6 flavors of ice cream and 7 types of toppings?"

Something like that.

Some were even postulating why we even need ice cream in the first place? ...and then a food fight broke out.
