Most interesting planets?


Recommended Posts

A lot of the most interesting places to visit are on Kerbin or Mun. I like easter-egg hunts :-)

Descriptions would give to much away to those who prefer to find them themselves, otherwise there are other threads and tools that will reveal them.

Well, he specified planet, so Laythe, being a moon is out.

Moho- pretty boring by itself, just like a bigger, browner Mun much closer to the sun

Eeloo - same as above, their orbits make them mildly interesting

Dres - not even a really interesting orbit

Duna - a contender. An atmosphere that is challenging to use for more than aerobraking, varied terrain with distinct geological features, contains easter eggs, has a moon - rather boring by itself, but it is geostationary reative to Duna which is interesting, and it can make approaches to Duna "interesting.

Eve - a contender. A dense atmosphere and high gravity make escape very challenging, varied terrain with oceans of some liquid. has a moon that presents some challenge due to its low gravity and highly eliptical orbit

Jool - a contender - its big, its green, its diverse moons are both interesting, and pose navigation challenges. However, its nearly featureless, and you can't really land on it - although you can reliably spawn the kraken.

What's the most interesting planets KSP?

Or the most interesting palaces to visit. Could you give a description?

Well, he specified planet, so Laythe, being a moon is out.

If we want to split hairs then sure, Laythe is a moon and not a planet. But he also asked for interesting places to visit. "Most" is a subjective qualifier to which I specified as "A lot of people enjoy..."

Another excuse to post my favorite screenshot. I present to you, Vall.

Nice shot. Two thumbs up!

(Although it looks like your lander is hovering ever so slightly. :P )
