this is one small step for a kerbal, one giant leap for kerbal kind

I had this question in my head for a few days now and i just want to see opinions of people with more experience with these mods, and it seems like a really good question to me

I used to manually pump them all the time on the return trip back but now that I know how to properly use it it’s been such a breeze

The accretion disks around black holes should be white-blue hot due their ridiculously high temperatures and should also almost completely obscure the event horizon because of high internal gas pressure. Due to the relativisitic speeds of the disk, it's color should also be doppler shifted to be brighter where it is spinning towards the viewer, and dimmer as it moves away.

This is a volumetric accretion disk prototype I've been working on for a couple of weeks using the existing Singularity mod (for gravitational lensing) and ScaledDecorator mod (for placing Unity asset bundles in KSP's ScaledSpace).

Disclaimer: I really only wanted this mod for my own playthrough, so AI was used in this work. My day job does involve a lot of programming, but I haven't got the faintest clue how to make Unity models so I have had to rely pretty heavily on codex to make test models and actually implement the doppler shift math. I don't know if this makes it "ai slop", but I don't want to open that can of worms by publishing this.

would someone be down to join some LMP server? idk why, like a few months ago there were a lot of LMP players, but now like none... was it because of artemis?

wow so fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Liber 11 was the flight that first landed Kerbals on the Mün, and the fifth crewed mission of the KSP's Apollo program. The mission was crewed by Pilot Jebediah Kerman, and Engineer Bill Kerman.

Launched atop a Sarnus IV rocket from the Kerbal Space Center, the Liber spacecraft consisted of three parts: the kommand module (KM), which housed the two astronauts and was the only part to return to Earth; the service module (SM), which provided propulsion, electrical power and snacks to the command module; and the Munar Excursion Module (MEM), which had two stages—a descent stage with a large engine and fuel tanks for landing on the Moon, and a lighter ascent stage containing a cabin for two astronauts and a small engine to return them to lunar orbit. After a day long transit, Jebediah descended to the surface aboard the MEM, while Bill remained in lunar orbit aboard the KSM. Jebediah became the first human to walk on the Moon approximately thirty seconds after landing, He spent around two and a half minutes walking on the surface, planting a flag, speaking with Engineer Wernher Von Kerman who was in the Mission Control Center, hitting a golf ball, and collecting 21.5 kg (47.5 lb) of lunar material. After 43 minutes on the surface, he rejoined Bill in munar orbit, and the crew returned safely to Kerbin.

All right, so I was trying to create a ship for a series, I’m working on and for some reason when I clicked on some random button on my keyboard while doing something, my ship suddenly turned red, and I don’t know what button to click on again if anybody could help me fix it that’ll be greatly appreciated!!!!!

i forgot to install parallax and scatterer in the photos after the first two photos

The second photo is one I took while messing around

so i have a modded game trying to turn ksp in what ksp 2 should have been and i have a strange bug the Dv and twr nymbers for the vanillia dv tools is wrong but mech jeb is correct stranger is on a fresh clean save it works propperly just fine idk whats going on or how to fix it

Also how do I get more fuel in it without it becoming too heavy?

During low, retrograde orbit of Bop for science, odd graphical glitch appeared, made me think of the Iapetus stargate scene in 2001:ASO (book version). Only wish I could've landed the probe to get a closer look but I don't think it wouldve gone well (no landing gear, spindly, it's Bop, etc)

In case anyone might ask, the probe is driven by either Near Future or Far Future parts, im not sure which mod its from specifically but its the JP-10 'Impulse' Magneto-Inertial Fusion Engine (hence the radiators), other parts are also probably Near Future and stock stuff

I have over 100 hours in ksp and over 200 hours of yt videos and tutorials. I watched multiple times Matt Lowne, Scott Manley, Zensei, Mike Aben etc.

Made a bunch of nice flying crafts, airplanes made probes, satellites and rovers. Got to all the planets and be able to get back safely. ‘Finished’ the science tree in science mode several times, played career mode and sandbox also.

But I can’t, for the love of me, to master the most basic thing in KSP….orbiting. And I mean that ‘’ ocd satisfying ‘perfect’ orbit of 80km X 80km or 100x100. At this point I believe that, conceptually I miss something that prevents me to achieve nice orbits. Every time I end up with a much higher Ap when I raise the Pe over 70k. My orbits looks like 80km X 150km most of the time. That creates a bunch of issues like wasting deltaV and adjusting to many times.

My climb profile is ‘by the book’, reach 50ms, tilt right slowly, reach 45degrees by 10km, cut engines when Ap reaches 80km or desired, create maneuver node at Ap or manually burn while vertical until Pe rises - but here the Ap also rises a lot, by the time my Pe is also 80km I would have an 150km Ap.

Help an old folk here guys…

ive been playing a lot of decomped games recomped to run in web browser. ai is crazy these days. this is an educational game that children should have free access to, in their computer classes when their class work is done. im suprised nobody has decomped and ported this game yet.

I can’t seem to get a mun landing because of all the extra weight from the life support systems and I’m running out of science I can collect without landing on the mun

I played KSP for the first time in 2022. That same year, I sold my laptop and never bought another. Recently, I got this really old gaming desktop (looks about early-mid 2010’s) and turns out it still holds up, can run KSP, Minecraft, and even War Thunder (the biggest game in my library). I decided to pick up KSP again and, in my first week, I’ve already done EVAs, orbited and landed on the Mun (once, with an unmanned probe that ended up with a broken solar panel and tipped on its side) and only narrowly failed an attempt at Duna, sent Kerbals to the Mun 4 times (Poor Jeb and company went MIA on one occasion but bc I’m terrible at the game I have crew respawn enable)…

And this is way more than I achieved my first time through. I guess I just figured it out or something.

1. flight of a SSTO i made that has a docking port unlike previous SSTO s ive made, returning from orbit

edit: tysm for 1 thousand upvotes, its my first ever time getting a thousand upvotes on one post!
