Sabactus Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Still on the moon looking for the Monolith. Got the 'General Lee' rover going from equatorial crater to equatorial crater.Note: a rover traveling at 522 km/h on the moon handles more like a spacecraft than a car. Wicked hang time! Longest amount of time airborne: 19 seconds. That\'s a 2.75km jump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GroundHOG-2010 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 The first plane to the south pole goes to the new base in the Wikeri Range (please correct me when the acctual name comes out, because as far as I know it is currently the lolcano, which doesn\'t suit it).Leaving KSC for the Wikeri BaseMid course, The sun is up now... AHH IT BURNSDecending, compared to most, along the nice provided coridoor to the right of the runway. Nice picturesque scenery. This is the right way to land.Landed, took 10 min from KSC, 8 min shorter than the polar flight, with the engines dropped midflight instead of landing (two lower engines). Landing conditions good, approach dead on the money, In the picture VAB to the right, Tracking station to the left and the Launch pad in the middle, but behind a hill.

Monkthespy Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Wait, so you are saying...There is like 20 KSC\'s on Kerbin most likely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candre Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 It seems the the second KSC found so far has a slightly elevated launchpad. I can\'t drive on to it. Next time, I\'ll bring a VTOL lander. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Causeless Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I believe that there is at least 1 more space center. I\'ll have to look for it today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rico88 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Desert Raider I has paid off!I almost missed it at first, it\'s quite small:Now this was unexpected.

AlternNocturn Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 I don\'t even know where to begin looking for eggs. It takes long enough to travel a few kilometers from the KSC, I can\'t imagine how long driving (or flying, though I can\'t build a vehicle that reliably flies without flipping out) all around the planet would take.

erkha343 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Where is that dammed monolith, I\'ve been to all of Muns craters now, I must be blind, I even went to the poles. some weird stuff there S:| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Causeless Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 You can actually see it from quite high up (other KSC(s?)) . I was able to see it from 130,000 meters.Dang man, delete that pic! You aren\'t meant to show everyone where it is! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randox Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Still on the moon looking for the Monolith. Got the 'General Lee' rover going from equatorial crater to equatorial crater.Note: a rover traveling at 522 km/h on the moon handles more like a spacecraft than a car. Wicked hang time! Longest amount of time airborne: 19 seconds. That\'s a 2.75km jump. I put my probe into a 2.4km orbit, and it was only going 577 m/s. Also, that didn\'t end well. Got halfway around and as I came up on the far side of a huge crator, the ground gets really close (like 10m away or so close). So I have mech jeb nose up and fire the engines. It got up to about 20 degrees before the engine made contact, followed quickly by the rest of the rocket as it transformed into a killometers long fire fireball.I did discover a lander that no longer shows up on my map though, so I\'ll be sending my first cart to go an investigate that. It\'s within driving range of the super crator, and even if the Obelisk isn\'t in there, I\'d like another look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
