I don't think he's a native english speaker/writer.

Boosters of several dozen missions in the heap of false information on the Internet, and the rest of the industrial wastes are directly.

Wait, what?

I don't even know, but it's beautiful.

He's made 7 posts in random threads over a period of a few months. All of them are more or less the same vaguely relevant gibberish. How bizarre.

capturing an E asteroid is harder than expected.

I got there with my 3000m/s dv, and once docked, my dv went to 27m/s

luckily I chose one that was already passing near Kerbin, and after a 17m/s maneuver I set the pe at 20k on the Kerbin surface.

turns out it was barely enough to reduce the ap close to the minmus orbit, because the huge mass the drag does little to slow you down.

after four passage in Kerbin atmosphere, I have not yet landed it.

[forsaken1111]

Wait, we're supposed to LAND them?

[WillowLuman]

Well, what else are you going to do to it? Attach a bunch of buildings via claws and pilot a giant space rock base around the solar system?

Cheers.

That post seems human, though.

Has anyone tried that asteroid base thing we'd all been thinking of yet?

Not sure what you mean by "base", but I'm currently catching asteroids to build an overly large, overly complex, and generally ill-advised orbital station... above Minmus. Not sure where I should assemble it, though. Shipping all the parts to Minmus will be very time consuming, but trying to get a half dozen asteroids (including a class E) to all move in the same direction at the same time sounds pretty daunting.

Kerbin's not gonna destroy itself.

What happen if you crash an asteroid on the KSC?

[GreatWyrmGold]

Nothing.

[LoSboccacc]

Bounces and laughters

[Sean Mirrsen]

You would get an asteroid on the KSC.

In other news, my attempts to make a compact SSTO with over-wing engine pods so far results in nothing but pretty pictures. Can only get it to suborbital.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Still trying to see if a better ascent profile can help, or if I need to add more stuff.

[Aseaheru]

Probably needs a 3ed engine.
