KSP does have ALIENS (TA, TA, TAAAAAAA)

[iZakky]

Once I was messing around with the dragonfly drone that I downloaded from youtube ( it doesn't go to space), until I saw something weird in the sky rotating pretty fast, I thought it was a derbis pulled by the blue sphere, but when I searched in the tracking station for anything in my way, nothing came out. Here's a preview:

By the way, no mods are installed.

No, there aren't aliens. Just Kerbals.

That spot looks like a remnant from engine exhaust. Was it viewable from different angles? Or did it seem way off in the distance?

Cheers,

That's minus. It can be seen when it's above the horizon during the daytime, the same way you can see the mun.

If it was minmus it wold be 1 pixel or 4pixels in a square

This shape is either 1x4 pixels or 2x6 pixels but it isn't minmus.

THE dragonfly frone is not built to fly in space or even at that altitude :/ it has a jet engine

and it can only be viewed from kerbin's surface. and no it didn't seem way off because it looked like it was orbiting kerbin while rotaion really fast.

[iZakky]

no its not minimus because that moon was on the other side of the planet while i saw that, and also minimus cant rotate that fast (it rotated like 3 per sec)

Kerbal Space Program features Kape descendants that are so utterly primitive that they genuinely believe that tablet KCs and smart phones are a really neat idea. They believe that the pursuit of ultimate happiness is ultimately governed by the acquisition of pieces of paper called Kurrency. This approach is ultimately doomed to failure, since it isn't the pieces of paper that were unhappy in the first place. In practice, they no more understand their fate than a tea leaf understands the history of the Kerbal East Kindia Company.

Oooooo. Spooooooky

[iZakky]

still no answer

[Pondafarr]

Lens flare artifact.

[Wooks]

Either gas swamp or a street light. Any mods installed?

[HafCoJoe]

SPOOKY...

so scurd

My guess is low-flying asteroid. I put one in a low, nearly equatorial orbit once and it was very easy to see when it passed near the sun (as the face of the asteroid reflected the sun). That would also create the appearance of an elliptical shape.

[psyper]

I'm not saying it was aliens but it might be...

(very bad mspaint at work jobby - but you get the idea).

On topic - im trying to work out how close that has to be for it to be debris or how big it has to be for it to still be in orbit. did you check out the debris option (in map view hover the mouse at the top center of the screen) - you should get the selection icons come down - select the far left one which is greyed out as default and see if anything is orbiting near your location.

Think its time to contact NORAD (do kerbals have norad??)

Imagine flying a imaginary ship around a planet in your mind.

You have entered...

The kerbal zone (do do doo do doo do do dooooo)

[NecroBones]

It's a weather balloon.

[ZodiaK]

Do you have distant object enhancement installed?

[tg626]

Light from Eve (Venus) reflected off a weather baloon, hitting some swamp gas...

You know what? I need you to look right here. *FWUMPPP*

[RocketscientistV]

The exhaust is glitched and can appear far away from the craft. This is easier seen as small clouds flying past planes.

[KerikBalm]

His mind will be blown when he visits the north pole of Kerbin and searches for long enough...

And then blown again when he investigates the Mun thoroughly enough

And blown again if he finds... "it" on bop, and what "they" built on Vall
