Saturn V rocket by sentinal-5
I recently got the Kerbal space program. it helped me to apreciate this spectacular machine! This is a highly simplified version of NASAs famous Saturn V (moon) rocket. i will be working on more in-depth closeups later. Enjoy!

I like KSP because it is moddable. I have a KSP instance where Kerbin is Earth-sized, reentry is damaging, realistic aerodynamics, etc. All those things make the game much more challenging. Kerbin is a much more friendly enviroment for new players than Earth is. -

YOU NEED TO ADD AN ACCUBLIERIE DRIVE! -

well.. somewhere out there there is a planet just like kerbin. same size, same mass, same oxygen-rich atmosphere (not nesecarily breathable by humans though) also in the goldilocks zone. despite the fact that i firmly believe in an infinite universe (but big-bangs so far apart that our ball of matter will reach it's heat-death before radiation from the closest one gets even half way here) KSP isn't that realistic... one word. infinigliders. -

and KSP is not THAT realistic, because kerbin is smaller than earth. But, as always, there is a mod for this -
JusticeFighter 19th Jul 2014hmm... TPT Research?

Too bad there's no LH2 in tpt. That would make rockets (and explosions) so much more awe! -

KSP is quite possibly one of the best games I have ever played. -
jklujm 19th Jul 2014Hey sentinal-5, I just created a nuclear thermal rocket very similar to the ones in KSP Interstellar. There are some very interesting physics in it, like the lower the thrust, the higher the ISP.
