HypeWeapons are hard to do when you're firing at someone who's really hyped about not dying. A fundamental law of Hype is that two opposing Hype forces can not be used together in any meaningful way.

As far as I've understood hype is a very interesting substance. Is there any research being conducted about the hype's reaction to certain environments like vacuum or microgravity? Also I did manage to isolate a small amount of hype and I've observed a drastic drop in temperature above 18000m.

Can you confirm this?

At the subatomic level, Hype appears to exhibit self-confinement properties if the external pressure is high enough, sustaining a process somewhat akin to fusion which produces Hype's characteristic extreme temperature. At pressures lower than about 75 millibars (about the atmospheric pressure at 18 kilometers up), however, this property is lost, and typical methods of sustaining fusion in a near-vacuum, such as inertial or magnetic confinement, are impractical because Hype exhibits no significant magnetic properties, cannot be ionized in any known way, and requires more input energy from a laser-confinement system than the resulting Hype reaction actually produces even in states of total ignition.

Storing Hype in a pressure vessel in order to induce its customary sea-level behavior seems to be an obvious solution, but all reactive Hype brought past the Von Karman line invariably reaches an irreversible Boredom State within moments, seemingly in response to some poorly-understood and otherwise undetected form of cosmic background radiation. Since no known material can block this radiation without a thickness of many kilometers, this makes Hype use outside the protection of Earth's atmosphere virtually impossible.

this makes Hype use outside the protection of Earth's atmosphere virtually impossible.

hypeflight was virtually impossible. it turns out that hype acts like an infinite improbability drive, only more easy to control. so we can hypeinterplanetary

The self-confinement property seems to be affected by high speeds even in the thicker atmosphere.

This means that our mystery goo canisters are no longer filled with goo, but with hype.

Well, sorta. Metaspace is the land where the railway is mostly built upon, not being earth's atmosphere, not being a vacuum, not being an atmosphere.

It's hard to explain.

Well, now there's an atmosphere on the way to Kerbin. So erm.. that complicates things. Hence the locomotive's redesign.

or not.....

Looks like the forecast has actually cleared up in the metaspace leading to KSP. So there's no need for the two-thousand-dollar refit that we are almost finished with. *twitches eyes*. Well, throw away the shell.

I thought the hypetrain voyage would be nice and aerodynamic because of aerodynamics coming, but nope! Turns out metaspace isn't affected by Kerbin at all.

[megatiger78]

So how is the hypetrain anyway?

Still in the workshop waiting for the go-ahead to the station. It will be considerably after experimentals this time, because experimentals will take so long.

Excuse me but: WHAT IS THE HYPE TRAIN ANYWAY? I can NEVER get an answer on this!!!

Rule number one you do not talk about the hyeptrain

rule number two....YOU DO NOT TALK ABOUT THE HYPETRAIN

[TheCanadianVendingMachine]

Excuse me but: WHAT IS THE HYPE TRAIN ANYWAY? I can NEVER get an answer on this!!!

It's a fake entity created by the GregroxMun to get free rep. Oh, and also a reason that shows the forum is filled with people who like "hype"

[megatiger78]

the hypetrain is..... well..... ask gregrox. and look at the front page of this thread. and wait for a hypetrain thread to come close to release.

[Whirligig Girl]

Excuse me but: WHAT IS THE HYPE TRAIN ANYWAY? I can NEVER get an answer on this!!!

It is a meme on the internet where a very hyped-up event will be sort of like a bandwagon of people joining in. A Train of people being Hyped. It's metaphorical.

It is a vehicle by which a massive group of people can be transported to the station of the event.

Awe, ok, that clears it up! Thank you!

Know your memes gentlemen, you are on the internet...

Interhypestellar is definitely exists. In the film Interstellar, when endurance is flying through space, everything turns a pinky purple. This is a form of Hypematter. As endurance travels through space, something that's called a hype wave hits the body of the ship. Hype waves are produced by the quantum hype cortex. These raidioactive hypewaves are what are in hypecoal. These waves travel through space and time. As endurance speeds up, the hypewaves bombard the sides of the ship, causing the rainbowy effect.

Ask me anything about hypephysics

yes, but that was a fim. this is metareal.

Does the Hype Train still have spare seats?

It always does

Question: How does the HypeTrain manage to always have seats available?

Are the cars larger on the inside like a Tardis? Are new cars created as the HypeTrain is in motion? Do the seats just get smaller and smaller as more people board?

Also, do kids ride for free?

The ticket scalpers in the 1.0 hype thread weren't exactly asking for users ages. I suspect little Timmy and Sarah will have to hand over their piggy-banks to the nice train man.

We pick up coaches as necessary from stations. Advanced shunting techniques allow the train to still be in motion while the coaches are being coupled.

And kids do ride for free. This is because the only payment needed is funds, and funds are an imaginary unit of currency.

And as to the dimensionally trancedal nature of the coaches, that's classified. Here, let me just point this neuralizer at your retinas...
