Although if you go into the 1000s, something costing 5kK's is kinda weird...
Yeah but "megaK" sounds awesome. Actually it sounds like some kind of shopping center.

I managed to get a kethane-scanning satellite in a polar orbit of the Mun.  :D

A minor achievement, but a first for me.  And it's already found a couple of hefty deposits.

Now to do enough science to unlock the things I need to mine/convert it!

I suggest setting the scanner at a polar orbit, so it eventually gets the whole Mun.

that was a luky dwarf. I had one dabbling surgeon fail so spectacularly that the patient skull flew a tile away from the table.

Minecraft UI is very simple. There's only so many ways you can implement "simple" without copying something. We also gonna complain that it uses WASD?

My rocket is tipping over and I have no idea why.
I've made rockets that are much more overengineered and ridiculous, yet somehow this one tips over. CoM and CoT seem to be fine...

There's already a fuckton of SAS and winglets.
The weird thing is that I've had more powerful rockets that are more controllable :/
This one has 6 skippers and a mainsail in asparagus, while others had 7 mainsails.
(That said this one has a lot of boosters to bring it out of the densest part of the atmosphere)


E:

WHOOPS.
Looks like I fucked up my asparagus, fuel was draining assymetrically. Welp.

I'm finding B9 to be rather useless without a joystick. Proof I don't plane much.

Finally got a nearly working SSTO spaceplane with the Interstellar Quest mods.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
It's got quite a massive payload space (big enough for an orange tank, plus some); though it still needs a few tweaks that could get it fully orbital. 10 rapiers and 6 subsonic engines on the main wing, as well as VTOL engines on the back to improve its ability to pitch up or down as needed.
