Kerbal Space Program 0.18.2 includes a new planet, an icy world on the edge of the kerbol system, so here's a mission to this tiny world using a 2 part ship assembled in orbit around Kerbin.

@scottmanley11 жыл бұрын
if you only want to escape Kernin orbit then it saves a small amount of fuel. If you want to transfer to almost any other planet then you might be wasting fuel because when you're low down in Kerbin's gravity well you get more energy from the same amount of fuel due to the Oberth effect, so, it is frequently more efficient to do your transfer burn without using the Mun.

Click on your Space hanger; load the Orbiter. Then click Launch. To get into oribit simply do as follows: Launch, at 2000 Meters angle 'slightly', at 6000 Meters angle a bit more, and at 15 tilt it even more over (30* at most), Then 19-21km tilt it at 45* angle. Once you reach 36km make sure that the yellow point (this represents the spacecraft's carried momentum) is in line or just above the point where the blue and orange meet. This should get you into Orbit at least.

I lost my kerbal when i tried to reach the outer planets. He is now on a LONG elliptical orbit extending outside of the solar system, and a 70 year orbit with the sun. It is also 45 degrees off from the orbital plane of the planets. He also has no fuel at all. Yeah... poor guy is lost forever. I got low on fuel and tried to salvage it, so I tried a slingshot maneuver to get home, and I MIGHT have walked away from the pc and forgot to return... and caused that to happen.

theres 3 types of landings, first, the escape velocity "landing". you get so close to the surface its like skimming on the water but then it just goes away, second, the fast landing. you get to the point where your going so fast you cant decelerate but then you just crash into the surface at hypersonic speeds, third, the 2easy landing. your relative velocity is about a hundred meters per second and then you realize your burn is only 6 meters per second. you do that, go to the surface, accelerate your craft at 1% thrust because only 5% overshoots it. and then you land at only 2 meters per second.

In the end, Jeb is stranded on Duna with no ship to get back home. On my day off I will build a proper ship to get to Duna, pick up Jeb, get out to Eeloo, land, plant flag, and return everyone to Kerbin.

A true unicum in the universe of kerbal space program, scott was able to endure six years of voyage without ever failing. All hail the mighty Master of KSP!

I have finally understood the physics behind this space simulation video game thanks to Scott Manley for his extensive knowledge. There really is not any more reasons to keep watching more but I admire all of the random, exciting facts that he instills during each video about space travel and really just flight in general. Love it man, so awesome.

I love your videos and they are very educational. I apply what you experience to my ksp gameplay. Thank you.

I know exactly how you feel. I felt so proud too after managing a very close encounter with Duna (no orbit), after which I realized that I was trying to get there with a lander that I haven't managed to land safely anywhere yet.

KSP has a learning curve, but you figure it out! For a good long time I couldn't reliably get a ship into a nice orbit or land on the mun, but if you keep watching videos and trying things, you figure out what works and what doesn't. Just today I managed to get Jeb and Bill to Eeloo and back. It only takes practice.

According to most, Minmus is actually easier to land on than the Mun. However, as I approached Minmus, my projected trajectory started to blink wildly and I couldn't make any more maneuvers, so I went for the Mun instead and it wasn't very difficult at all. I docked a craft to an orbiting station prior and that was worlds more difficult.

Agreed, and if you are using so many that they overheat and explode before burning out, just slap some fins on the outside; they seem to act as a heatsink.

Watching this in 2017 is pretty hilarious. Eeloo! New planet! KSP has come a long way.

Back in the days before toolbars, Docking Port Alignment Indicator, RCS balancer, Smart A.S.S, and of course; re-entry heating :D

i found a sure fire way to rendezvous is that you park your ship close to your target. like you ship is at 95km while your station is at 100km and the closest approach will probably change so slow in each orbital period that sooner or later you'll get an approach with less than 10km separation and starting from there you burn retrograde relative to the target to kill the relative velocity and then burn towards your target and sooner or later the two will meet.

That is why I always test my new ships. For instance, landers, I usually do 1-5 tests with it by going into a steady orbit around Kerbin and then testing every functionality of the ship. I first check my gears, make sure the legs work for one, then make sure they are long enough. then I check solar panels, lights, and then EVA one Kerbal. If everything went well, I go back to Kerbin, testing every stage on the way there, and then using my parachute. If I messed up, I fix it and try again, lol.

On my first eeloo trip today i got on a weird trajectory and the trip ended up taking 7 years, but they ended up getting there anyways, so YAY

I just sent an entire space station with one docked ship and ten satellites to Duna (single trip), and I have to say, it was way more complicated than getting to Eeloo. Depends on the mass you want to move I guess.

Also you have to remember that there's usually a thin line between what people perceive as confidence and arrogance and that line is different for different people, for example i personally figure Scott's just confident and comfortable with what he's talking about.
