Imagine this design when we actually have multiple solar systems in KSP 2.
Can't wait for ksp 2 to release.
Just make the Ascension Ring larger, and the spacecraft itself moar fuel and engines, and you will have a true Star Wars craft
Just use mods
@@nighpaw4651 mods are cool but nah. ksp 2 is going to be fun as hell

Why are star wars spacecraft aerodynamic
"We chose to go to Minmus NOT to advance the scientific knowledge of our race, but to establish wether or not it does indeed taste like mint ice cream"
Matt, that in itself is advancing the kerbal's scientific knowledge.
But it’s not useless like TEsTiNg tHe aTmOsPheRe of DUNA or sAmPliNg DRes!!
Science isn't about "why?"
It's about "why not?"
@@michaelfixedsys7463 or "can we eat/touch it without immediate death, if we do why?
I think kerbal space program science experiments mainly include taste tests.

7:01 In the bottom left, there is a frame where you can see the ring whizzing by the ship. Imagine if you hit it in timewarp. That would've been funny.

How could you see that???
How on earth does one see that?!?

Debris in KSP has some quantum mechanics vibe to it - it only de-orbits when you observe it.
Same applies to parachutes sometimes. I once tried to deploy a rover from a plane, and it kept crushing into the ground. So I had to circle around it after deployment and only then it's parachutes worked fine.
Schrodinger's debris
@@brokedeaddog It's in orbit and on the ground at the same time
Or if the periapsis is below the 'camera change' altitude (about 24km for Kerbin), the game will auto-deorbit it for you. If it's above that cutoff then it will stay in a perpetual "needs to be observed to deorbit" condition.
Just fly very low to the ground so it is in physics range untill it hits the ground and u should be fine
I used to stick parachutes on my boosters so they could be recovered, but of course the chutes never deployed so it was a waste

Are they? Since when? Ok thats nice!
They will be a fine addition to my gamedata folder
@@MattLowne EVE for 1.8.1 works with 1.9 (I know because I've been using it for 3 months now) but scatterer did update. I don't see a new EVE update tho, and the last one (for 1.8.1/1.9) was released in October last year.
PS, I saw that you were trying to click the rock on Minmus at 10:34. To pick up a rock, get a kerbal up close and right-click him/her. Assuming its a small rock and not a large surface feature and that you are close enough, there will be an option to "pick up *whatever the rock is, e.g. Laythe stone*". The kerbal will play a cute animation of him/her hacking away at the rock and then will produce a science menu. The rock will then disappear. Transmitting the data will yield 0 of the science while recovering it will give you the same amount of science as a surface sample on that planet.
@@kevinzheng7373 Whoa thanks!

Jebediah: (takes off helmet to taste the mint ice cream on minmus)
mmm yes tastes like S U F F O C A T I O N
You can always tell when you're about to enter the hwhiskey review, everything just becomes a little more classy all of a sudden.
Fun fact, i recently landed on minmus.
Coming in. crew report. (roughly)
"You look at the minty green surface of minmus, you wonder if it tastes like mint? You realize you are hungry now."
Surface sample, minmus flats (iirc, not the dark green area, one of the higher flats)
"You sneak a taste of the surface sample, it does not taste like mint."
Quotes are not exact. But recent.
3:00 that moment when you realize how strong Jeb is
yeah
I would think that a smaller SSTO which could connect to a hyper-ring for interplanetary flight would be cool, just like the appollo system for returning to earth
@Zwenk Wiel Sure it is. It got to orbit without discarding any parts. The fact that it left some parts in LKO while going off to some other destination doesn't make it not an SSTO, just makes it a multi-part ship. The entire ship got to orbit, and the entire ship came back to the ground.
*inspired of Star wars starfighters*
Oh, I see you’re a kerbal of culture
9:06 inspiring talk...
Matt’s sstos: has round wings
Me: Surprised
Matt’s sstos: has removable wings
Me: Leaving the room...
xD
Matt’s sstos: has wings that can move in there own. Me: HOW THE HECK!?!?
6:47 you almost said “it’s an awkward docking, ‘cause you’ve got to go through a little ‘hole’ ”.
@Triffty maybe that was a relative or maybe him when he was young, or maybe he is actually 5.
@Milo Banks thats not a subreddit
"A good ring to it." alright fine take my like but it doesn't mean i'm happy about it!
r/angryupvote
"Unrealistic sharp turn to kill some velocity"
It's called "Aerocobra" and is actually used by fighter jet pilots to dodge missles huh
Hit the brakes, fly right by.
if you blow up technically your killing something, might not be your velocity
It’s an air show maneuver only it has no practical combat applications notching and countermeasures dodge missiles cobras get you killed
@@Utubesuperstar I could be wrong but I think high G maneuvers like the airocobra do work against some or most missiles, but killing your energy like that would certainly put you in a disadvantaged position and would probably lead you to your demise just as the missile would
@@infinity9646 that would depend but generally notching is the best option
I laughed at the start when he said SSTO but
Listen here Matt I was about to go to sleep then this popped up and now I gotta watch it. I love you but if I pass out during the day it’s on you. :P
"Oh I don't think so"
Jesus same thing here
Luckily I don't sleep
I love this! Love the fact you are making it backwards with the ring being the "short range" mode, and the ship alone being the long range... That's brilliant! Imma steal the idea I think. Not the design, but the basic idea.
No! You can't just make working SSTO's like that!
haha SSTO go zoom
I love this
I love how Jeb just flips around half way up the ladder so that he's now climbing it upside down. That is such a kerbal way to climb a ladder.
“Armchair astronomers through and through.”
Had me dying.
It sounds like a mix between Obi wan’s ship and a Saber from Halo Reach
Thank you for doing a grammatically correct intro, "welcome to another"
SO many youtubers say "welcome back to a new" or something similar, but like, if it's new then I'm not coming back to it, you could say welcome back to my channel for a new whatever, idk why it irks me so but it does and I feel bad about it but I also still feel that way so..
My favorite thing about Star Wars is that all the tech actually has a use, like R2-D2 isn’t just a little cute robot it actually functions as a sort of computer AI for ships
Generally tech does have uses, don't they?
First kerbal here
Seriously though this ship concept is really epic
how is your comment from 20 minutes ago but the video was posted 15 minutes ago wtf???

...So is Minmus mint-flavoured after all?
It tastes like salt mint and rocks.
It that order
Yes, and nothing can change that
No, the EVA reports say that it doesn’t. It’s probably just ice crystals, but I bet if you diluted it, it would be the best mint ice cream anyone had

Matt: Hello everyone

Have you ever tried a Laphroaig? The 10 year old is one of my favorites!
Given the review he just gave and stated preferences, I don't think he'd be a fan.
I'll try spinning, that's a good trick!
true
I think Matt is the only person who would talk about whiskey while performing docking procedures
Wonderful job! Regarding debris, I've noticed that if you leave a piece of debris on a degrading orbit and "ride it down", it behaves as expected. However, often if you travel away from the separate stage, the game will remember its sub-orbital trajectory, but it won't lower its appoapsis unless you select the debris from the tracking center. I suspect that the game removes physics from objects that isn't in the immediate vicinity of the player's object to save on resources.
Love it! My quarantine sleep schedule has allowed me to finally start seeing your videos right as they come out haha
I’m watching this at 3...
Pm! Got you!!!
Danny: "Breaking Ground, Literally."
Matt Lowne: "Making Ground"
Me: "Matt Lowne is the Kraken Slayer."

Soooo... its a reverse Hyper-Ring? Love it!
This is my favorite tv-commercial from the 1960's about the future of spacetravel
17:30 I did a minmus mission and one of my pieces of debris had a periapsis of 30km or something but it still showed up on the map screen for way later
Yeah they dont exist until you look at them lol
What if you launched a few more missions with just ascension rings, so there would be a ring in orbit of each planet for landing
I love my *Making Ground* and *Breaking History* DLCs
"Jebediah stayed rock-steady and didn't come... close to blacking out"
Good giggle on that one. Definitely enjoyed stumbling into this channel
Oh. Ma. Goddddd. I never realized how much you sound like Stewie Griffin until you said Whiskey! Lol! Also, this is a freaking AMAZEBALLS craft!
Glad I'm not the only one who felt like Stewie was giving the hwhiskey review
Me: watching the video with good commentary
10 minutes later
Matt: no, whiskey
Amazing idea and build. Well done. I'm really enjoying the content you are creating with KSP!
Matt talks about whiskey:
I actually heard Scotch Manley
I'm still not sure why you bother with the KSP content in the background of your otherwise superb whisky reviews.
Well, some rockets *did* run on alcohol (low grade stuff, worry not), so of all vehicles rockets and whisky seem fine together
The *3* dislikes are flat earthers (is earther spelt like that??)
Nah they're sequel trilogy fans
Matt Lowne haha
So uncivilized...
By far the coolest thing you’ve done. Can’t wait to see it in KSP 2!
11:05 "this commentary I've just kind of been winging it really." Perfect summary of all of matt's ksp videos.
Matt, the reason you have debris still loitering around Kerbin is because once you're beyond render zone about 3 KMs away from another ship or part of a ship, the atmospheric physics will not apply to that piece. Example, a debris piece with apoapsis of 80 Km and and periapsis of 20 Km will hold that infinitely unless you switch to that debris piece in tracking center or manually delete.
This is my favorite thing from Star Wars, thank you
Some years ago I made a similar ring, but it's purpose was to bring small SSTO planes to Laythe.
The planes did not have delta V to make interplanetary flight, because they would serve as transport between an orbital space station at Laythe and a ground base.
So the ring was always out of atmosphere, going to Laythe and back carrying planes.
Matt never ceases to amaze me in the different video ideas for background kerbal space program
I love hes just talking about drinks while doing a space mission
Hello Matt, been watching your videos for a while now and recently loving them for than ever! Keep up the good work!!!!
I really hope you continue with this idea, as it was a great one to watch
Love it! Nice design with all stock designs!.
Amazing video and graceful vehicle! Landing was great!!!
Kinda wish you added a drill to the spacecraft so you could refuel the ascension ring out in space.
Maybe also make an ascension ring delivery system for Eve so you can easily land there.
I watched the prequels recently and had the same idea to try and build one of these but I had no idea on how to go about it, so I didn't. Kudos to you for being a KSP master and making one.
2:33 congratulations, this pun made me subscribe. Keep up the great content
Amazing concept. This is really cool
Thank you for doing a Star Wars thing I haven’t seen anyone else do this
I dont thinks anyone understands how much the "lowne lazy method of docking" has helped me. I just did you apollo mun mission totorial and wow.
Noice work! One of my favourite videos that you have done.
It's impressive how you always nail the KSC from orbit.
I love these ships which are built the *Kerbal* way
I did this the other way around.
Built a hauler that stays in orbit indefinite and gets payload modules from the surface to drag to different destinations.
Saves me the trouble of launching nuclear engines, laboratory, orbital experiments and all the stuff every time.
Just had to finance that one huge rocket to launch the hauler but now i have a "real" spaceship.
Great video as always!!!
It’s like the spaceship from interstellar lol
I thought that because you undocked the ring to the ring
What's really cool is that the Delta 7-B Æthersprite-class light interceptors (by Kuat Systems Engineering) used by the Jedi early in the Clone Wars and the Eta 2 Actis-class light interceptors (also by Kuat Systems) used by the Jedi later in the Clone Wars both use the hyperdrive ring system (Come to think of it, Kuat Systems probably has a patent on the design). The difference is that the Eta 2 hyperdrive ring has 6 engines while the Delta 7-B hyperdrive ring has only 2.
By the way: One of the fan-made space planes available for free on the in-game community vehicle catalog is a Delta 7-B interceptor, and I think it would be cool if you tried making a Hyperdrive Ring for it.
I checked the wiki, and apparently the hyperspace rings for Kuat-brand interceptors aren't made by Kuat. The two-engine version for the Delta 7-B is the Syliure-31 (also compatible with the Delta-12 Skysprite) while the Eta 2's use the larger, six-engine Syliure-45. Both models of transport ring are manufatcured by TransGalMeg.
I really like this concept I'd really like to see you explore more desighns around
That is a nice ring it served its purpose great job
That is the coolest idea I have seen in a long time
Lol hearing you mention Scott cracks me up - you two need to do a collaboration!!
wow this is probably one of your coolest ideas yet
Incredible. Simply incredible.
Thanks for uploading this in four in the morning matt. Thanks Alot.
10:40 that was a good transition.
Honestly love the ksp Matt keep it up
Wonderful and elegant design. Would love to see more wacky ships using this idea.
Your so good at this man
I was gunna say it looked like the Jedi Starfighter. 😄
Honestly though
Fun Video... very creative concept using the ring for atmospheric accent and return.
Fun fact, the Jedi starfighter is a delta-7 and was liked by the Jedi presumably because of its manouverability and was later swapped for the Eta-2 Actis-class light interceptor
Hey, Matt. I love your videos! Keep working up a storm!
This is a pretty slick craft.
Wow that ring was clean AF, very nice design.
Did something similar to this a few years ago cept the other way around, the ring was for getting around the solar system while the ssto was for atmospheric flight / getting off planets :P
