You open several dozen of the 1000 boxes on this floor and assemble a very unusual rocket, indeed. You end up preventing the obliteration of Kerbin by a neutrino burst.

Yeah, assembling rockets in warehouse 23 is a bad idea

You launch a spaceplane powered by antimatter scramjets. It's a secret to everybody.
<XXCoder>
yeah because it was a dud!

You try to fly the Aeris 4A to orbit. The whole experience is Type 3 fun.
<SporkWitch>
true, and also the epitome of "god of the gaps." we still teach newton's gravity in schools in the US, even though it was wrong. he gave up trying to explain the planetary orbits as "god did it" because he was close, but couldn't accept being wrong on the tiny details

You upgrade your entry-level SRBs from trashcans full of boom to rubbish bins filled with octanitrocubane. Murphy's law was thus renamed in Jeb's honor, after that mission.

You send Jeb to astronaut school to learn more about safety procedures. The Mün dust makes you bleed, so you set off in search of Even Crazier Spacedust.
<XXCoder>
I should have went there too. bleeding is annoying

Wait til he finds out that The Sun Is A Deadly Laser

You outsource the assembly of your rockets to Ohio. Someone accidentally triggers modcall and you get banned.

I wonder if there is a good reason for deploying the landing legs so late or if it's just flexing
<Deddly>
If they're travelling to fast, wouldn't the legs mess with stability?
<Deddly>
too*
<Mat2ch>
The legs would have lots of drag, yes
<Mat2ch>
but they doployed them today very late, like right before the touchdown
<Althego>
but they only open in the last few seconds with relatively low speed
<Althego>
also dont forget if you move mas that far away your inertia matrix changes to higher values :)
<Althego>
in fact you can see that in the landing when it didnt go back to launch site because of the rotation, as soon as the legs open the rotation slows down

should probably just do some drop test with landers to see how much of a big deal legs are
<Mat2ch>
hehe
<raptop>
er, deploying legs on drag
<raptop>
I should probably not accidentally a bunch of words
<Mat2ch>
you should
<Mat2ch>
totally

New version with scientist to reset experiments.

is that a propeller on the left one?

Low CoM to avoid accidents, but they still appened.
<darsie>
yes, in case I got into water :).
<Althego>
heh
<darsie>
155 km/h through terrain is dangerous.
<Althego>
then just add wings
<Althego>
i never go above 25 m/s
<Althego>
usually eveyrthing starts flipping above that
<darsie>
Yeah, but that takes so long for a multi measurement missio.n
<darsie>
I reach 43 m/s sometimes.
<darsie>
wide wheel base
<packbart>
a small reaction wheel and MechJeb's rover stability works well enough for me. I made a commit on the code, so it's basically as if I wrote it myself, right? :)
<packbart>
it scans the ground ahead and tries to align the rover parallel to the surface
<packbart>
doesn't prevent flying off but it usually lands on its weels
