Just a few pics from the first couple of hours of play.
New Re-entry effects are epic. (though nothing can actually burn up yet). Here's an Eagle on it's way to making a successful landing back at KSC.
Here's the beginnings of my refueling way-station. Olympus Station is fully stocked and has 2 "Columbia" style CSMs and a "Rigel 2" CSM docked.
Jeb's in the Rigel 2 CSM and he's pretty excited.
"Heya Thomsel! How ya doing?"
"Oh, just hanging out."
Kerbals now have a wider variety of expressions. But none more so than Jeb.
If that grin gets any wider, his head's going to split in two. >.>
Remember one of my goals from way back when was to nail a landing on the KSC grounds? Well it's trivial with a powered ship like an Eagle. But it still takes a bit of finesse to aim ballistically with a basic capsule and nothing but a parachute at the end.
Well - I finally nailed it. This is the aforementioned Rigel 2 Capsule coming back from Olympus Station from 155 Km up.
"Liiiiiike a GLOVE!!!" ^_^
Take a bow, lads.
