    Both of those missions were amazing to watch :D Excellent music and filming :D
    I have to say as wildly impressive as the Stock KSP mission was to land on Tylo with such minimal weight I have to say the pluto landing mission was even more impressive! As the sheer insane amount of Delta V that would be needed to carry out any sort of landing on Pluto is insane! Not to mention doing it with a direct transfer without any gravity assist. That's an EXTREMELY impressive amount of performance to fit in a Realism Overhaul rocket. Let alone one so small!

    Those moon scatters make me wonder... is there a mining expansion mod where you need to mine and return unique resources to be able to make parts? Or like a build-your-own outpost thing where you need to supply the resources to build stuff as a proxy for credits?
    What little I know about modding this game tells me both would be quite a pain in the ass.

    • @TDChannelKSP
      @TDChannelKSP  Před rokem

      As far as I know, not really. There's mods that expand the amount of resources you can drill for, and there's mods that allow you to build vehicles on-planet from resources you mine and refine (extraplanetary launchpads), but mining unique resources and selling them I don't think is a thing.
      Well, sort of anyway. I know KSPIE has antimatter as a very expensive resource, so if you harvest some near gas giants and return it to kerbin, you can make a a great profit.
