New science part for detecting Asteroids

[Helix935]

I know that we can track Asteroids using the tracking station that seems a little too easy for me so instead how about creating a new science part for detecting asteroids and then after having a sufficiently sized sat network(probably has 4 or 5 sats in different orbits around kerbin and about 1 to 2 around mun) set up, then we can begin tracking. This provide a greater need for a sat network as well as new contracts just for setting it.

Thoughts?

Improvements?

Maybe discussion?

I like the idea of putting telescopes in orbit to track asteroids

Maybe 3 around kerbin and 2 in kerbal orbit all spaced evenly.

Once the bugs are cleared out and Raven releases an updated version, CactEye should be what you're looking for.

I like the idea of needing orbital telescopes, but I don't think it should be stock: for stock, it's best to keep things simple for new players.

i am aware of cacteye which doesn't actually fill in the requirements but i see what you mean although even a little added complexity wouldn't hurt for the stock game. I probably should have put this in add-on requests first
