Hi does anyone of you play KSP? It's awesome. I just found a old popular scientific book about spaceflights in the schoollibrary and started replaying the historic missions in KSP.

I usually play for a bit every time a new version comes out.

And additionally whenever I get a hankering to send an SSTO spaceplane to Mun, but those never come home for some reason...

I just build intercontinental ballistic missiles.

Nice.
Although I couldn't tell from the pictures exactly what the mission involved. You dropped one probe into Laythe which stayed, and landed another on Pol which returned, right?

First two pics are unrelated. #1 is kerbals being pansies after a minor incidence, #2 was two module stacks landed near each other on the Mun.

#3 onwards, I was learning docking and refueling, sent a stack including an unmanned science lander and a manned lander to rendezvous with a tank in LKO. I intended to send it all to the Mun, but decided I could try to see how far I could get with that dummy ship, so I launched and docked another two stages.

After Mun and Duna flybies I pushed it to Jool, pic #6 is aerobraking at Jool, pic #7 is saying goodbye to the science lander after recovering it from Pol and flying by all Joolian moons, in #8, #9 and #10 the lander is splashing down in Laythe while the ship and the manned lander (which wasn't used due to a stuck door) got a gravity assist all the way back to Duna. The last pics are Bill taxiing the two Juniors back to Kerbin due to lack of room and parachutes in the manned lander.

Love this game. I haven't played it for a bit, but I sort of feel like waiting for the final release before I get too involved with it again. It makes me sad to put something elaborate into a difficult place, only for a new part to come out in the next patch that renders it obsolete.

So I was in a public bathroom and went to use the hand dryer. Some wrote in Sharpie. Push button get bacon on the cover. I thought of you.
