VincentMcConnell Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I hadn\'t seen this around in a while, although I heard talk about how small Kerbin was compared to Earth. I never really looked up Earth\'s true radius to get an accurate representation of how small Kerbin really was, but I finally got bored enough to look it up.Despite having an equally strong gravity, Kerbin is roughly 10.9 times smaller than the planet on which we currently are! I made a very simple diagram using my Microsoft Paint (ha) to show the size comparison of the two of them right next to each other. Kerbin is about 10.9 times smaller than Planet Earth.It does seem equally appropriate, however, because our Kerbals are very small creatures. Another thing that I never put too much thought into was the size of the capsules and rockets we get as stock with the game... They have a diameter of only one meter. I will probably get the diameter of the Apollo Command Module and see if our Kerbal\'s are accurately sized to be the same size as humans relative to their planet.My question is, do you think we will ever see Kerbin scaled up to a larger size, what with time warp now available?

NovaSilisko Posted April 18, 2012 Share Posted April 18, 2012 At the very bottom left, there should be a 'remove thread' and 'lock thread' button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
