The game is currently under heavy development. This means the game will be improved on a regular basis, so be sure to check back for new updates.
Right now, KSP is in Alpha state, but we want you to try it out and have fun with it. The first versions are free to download and play, and will remain so forever.
Omg this is perfect! I have some shuttles I'll upload soon. Anyone able to make a moon landing? I've watched videos and tutorials but I still can't do it haha.

So after countless attempts (with and without MechJeb) I finally landed (Crashed) and survived. okay so I crashed but the big part is I survived.
And we're off:
Arriving:
Close...
MechJeb Troll engaged: "Oh hey, I see you want to land vertically?"
"Here try landing horizontally, it's much better."
Thank god for quicksaving, and getting closer to landing again:
This one is Bills fault:
And we hit the ground at 10m/sish but hit with a lot of horizontal velocity, and on a hill. Lander flips, Bill ejects:
Bill: "That was not me. Crap."
Bill goes exploring and finds Mimus in the sky:
Bill is bad at landing with jetpacks too:
My command pod survived, and all my crew, plus cool Kerbin shot:
Found a lander leg section....
So that's all my pics, sorry for the massive amounts. But yeah, maybe some would call it a failure, but it is the first time my crew survived and went on an EVA on the Mun. Gonna launch a rescue mission later.
And when I found out my crew survived, I started jamming out and almost dancing like this.
Does this count?

Also I wanna be a memeber
Loved the screenshots. I haven't played in 2 weeks or so and this MechJeb is completely foreign to me. Game recently updated or mods? I gotta jump back in today.

Is that stock parts only btw? I don't have any addons yet, haven't had the time to install them.
Also, I'll be adding members when I have the gdocs spreadsheet done

Well, MechJeb is a must and makes it more realistic IMO since real ships do have autopilot. However having the Surface info or any other panel up really drops the FPS, so only have one or two up at a time. I have no clue how long .16 has been out but version .17 is gonna come soon.

EDIT: Seriously though, if you have liquids you can throttle. Keep them to the point where the overheat bar ether stays still or goes down. If that means you don't have enough thrust, use better engines.

Last time I tried to keep my speed down below 200m/s until I got to about 80KM, then I slowed down to under 100m/s , not letting my speed go above 40m/s below 10km. You are going almost 1,000m/s. Of course I did have a giant fuel tank and a 135 thrust landing engine.
And yes it does take a long time to get to the surface, but if it wasn't for mechjeb flipping me the first time, and me flipping me the second time, I would have come down possibly with my ship intact.
*Last time I did crash but at least I survived, so my advice might or might not be valid.

Yeah, a big part in me flipping the second time is because I kept taking off. i'd get down to 25m/s and try and lower it more right at the surface and I'd start taking off, over and over until I had so much horizontal velocity I just killed my engines and bailed.
