It's like throwing a hotdog down a hallway.

Visiting every Duna biome and anomaly in career mode was a choice... this whole ordeal took more than a month. I can't wait to unlock the whole tech tree and work on something else

not mine... but credit to whoever made this

4 months ago, on April 1, Artemis II mission was launched, which brought online player count to historical record high of 23000 concurrent players. However since the peak, player count has been on a steady decline, reaching 4800 players today, which is close to ~4000 players baseline before the launch. What do you guys think of this trend?

Stock XB-70 Valkyrie with six Whiplash turbo-ramjets; it could be a lot better but I think it turned out OK

Wow! I just passed 3,000 hours in Kerbal logged by Steam! That is equivalent to playing nonstop for 125 days, or about 8 hours a day for an entire year! And this doesn't even include time launched via CKAN nor my old KSP install I got outside of Steam!

I think I got this install in... I want to say 2022? It is now starting to dawn on me that the pandemic was not two years ago and that I am an adult now. Ow.

Here is to the next 3,000 hours!

Hey, I decided I wanted to finally try KSP after all this time. I watched quite some content on social media, and it looks quite cool, though I feel really overwhelmed by the complexity of the game and what more experienced players do/understand. I am definitely not complaining though, I was hoping for some sort of realism. I came to this subreddit looking for explanations and, I guess some sort of basic guide on these features. Things like what is ∆v and how to use it ( I saw this popping up everywhere but I have no idea what it is ), how to actually make functional spaceships/rockets for going to other celestial bodies (what techniques to use, meta, etc...), tips for increased realism and fun, mods, etc... I am looking forward to playing the game so hopefully I can get some useful answers.

This is my Moonskipper lander for Mun/Minmus missions, but it's especially OP for Minmus. TWR is a bit rough on the Mun. But this is my first lander that's not only functional but aesthetically pleasing too! Experiments include the Science Jr., Barometer, Thermometer, Mystery Goo, and Seismic Accelerometer.

This specific mission in the picture is called Mintskipper-1, our return to Minmus after a long time. The lander is pushed all the way to Minmus by the Apollo-style Rokstar-XL CSM, seen in the second picture.

In this short clip you can check our RTLS autonomous landing via kOS + custom live telemetry made with kRPC

The telemetry data really elevates footage to the next level providing in-depth information about speed, altitude, pitch, G-force, fuel and throttle levels

Bringing you the fullest report possible!

I hope you guys like it, its quite old, and this is the only picture i have but it also has the inflatable cushions and custom heatshield

I was playing RSS one day until i found this class G asteriod on a crash course for Earth

I created a quicksave when I found it so should I go and redirect it for -$600K

Several weeks ago, u/Cheap-Blackberry-763 challenged me to create a hanging mun arch base WITHOUT using the ground anchor part. It was a royal pain, and the project suffered many losses and setbacks, but FINALLY, I present to you all my hanging mun arch base (name undecided), with many many thanks to Nertea's various parts mods that literally would have made this impossible. Next up, gotta crew the thing. If you have any name suggestions lmk 👀

Any idea what could cause that? It's as if all of the game's hitboxes have bugged out, the kerbals just can't seem to interact with their environment normally. I've been stuck on the mun for a while now since I can't physically move my kerbals without them spazzing out, and they can't climb the ladder to the lander without theyr EVA pack

6X6 Rover, can reach speeds above 50 m/s. Handles 2X and 3X time warp quite well. 296 parts. 10.5 tons.

It uses 2 whiplashes, 2 aerospikes, and has ~1100 dV after establishing an orbit. The station uses mod parts.

In my primary science save, I was struggling with surface colonies on Eeloo so I decided to try out asteroid colonization.

I booted up my sandbox tester and was planning to test some asteroids in LKO. In the tracking station a class I body was discovered hanging around near kerbin which is the largest and rarest asteroid/comet in the game (it was not class I but I did not know that at the time.)

Anyways I launched an AVIT Spacetug:

and launched some additional RCS controls in order to maneuver our the huge rock, now named the "Heavy Testing Asteroid no.1".

Upon intercept I found that Heavy Testing Asteroid no.1 was not infact a rare and famous class I but a normal Class E (I Think, ~2000 tons).

So I did some launches and lots of EVA's and created this colony.

Looking back, it was kind of stupid to assume that a quarter kilometer wide comet would be stationary in a stable orbit near kerbin.
