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!

    r.i.p crewmembers aboard 99% of my test flights.. is there a way to run a mission with an empty command module and a remote flight control section? XD i feel so bad for all those kerbals i've smashed into mun before i realised what a good idea it is to slow down first. XD

    @Salt yeah, but in all honesty that message probably never made it out of the heliosphere. XD if there is intelligent life close enough to ever recieve electromagnetic transmisions from our planet. all they would see would be the ocasional pulse of a nuclear weapon. nothing else even comes close to the ammount of power required to even send a message 10 lightyears away.

    @Tanawesomeguy55 no i didn't mean you were. i just mean that if, for example, in the distant future, if we were to ever make contact with life (i doubt it, but it's possible) we would need to put earth's flag on the vessel (yes, there is an earth flag). not the flag of the country where the launch took place.

    @SmiteZero thanks! :D and i was aiming for the kinda dirty look. if it was perfectly smooth and and perfect it would look unrealistic and boring. if you look at a real photo, NOTHING is perfectly smooth. not even a mirror.

    @jingylima2 yeah... then again.. think what would happen if you put 40,000 volts A.C through a real rocket... @SlenderHunter :D thanks! and i might try.. ;-; it'd be a lot less detailed and loads clunkier though.. @demonow haha XD you also said tomorrow, your magic button simply extended my stay here! XD @987tails :D yay! thanks! i'm still disapointed by how much i had to change or cut out. :( your NYC ain't too shabby either!
