Only Mator and Aki are present for this show. Read was feeling under the weather and Digi was unable to attend a mid-week recording. But we could not delay the episode any longer as it was our last chance to record in the year 2020.
We discuss what the the Kerbal Space Program 1.11 update will bring and share our excitement for this release. KSP2 is delayed until 2022 and we share our thoughts on that as well as the most recent Dev Diary from Intercept Games.
Mator shares his experience with the most recent rocket launches and who will be the first members to walk on the moon. Aki discusses the sad news of the Arecibo Observatory collapse.

Kerbal Space Program celebrates 9 years in the making and we look at some of the facts Squad shared since releasing Kerbals into our care. Our overview of KSP2 news covers the way Kerbals will look and behave when the second version of this great game is released.
Mator covers off some of the recent Space-X launches (and some that didn't launch!), which sends Digi and Aki off onto a rather stranger tangent...

An episode is squeezed out just before Aki returns to the UK and it seems the pandemic hasn't caused a lack of news for both Kerbal Space Program and KSP2 this time. Version 1.10 drops for KSP and we go over the new features while the KSP2 slot is taken up with an inevitable discussion about the new Intercept Games studio.
Mator runs through the Crew Dragon Demo-2 launch in our real-space segment while Aki get the other hosts to guess the RPM of the fastest known spinning object. A community questions has us discussing which launch/mission in history we would like to be a part of.

We decided to leave the record button on after closing out the KSP content and this is the result. Our after-parties leave us discussing non-KSP related general gaming news and other material (including crock-pots!).
Topics covered are the new pricing for Twitch in Australia, Steam Licencing, Fallout 4 Creation Club headaches, a streamers culinary best friend, and current and wishful game remakes!
Warning - this episode contains strong language!
The pandemic continues to hinder our sanity as well as the release of fresh information, so we return to the Making History expansion for an overview of what the DLC provides. We discuss some things we'd like to see in KSP2 before moving on to our first listener email since relaunching the show. The Real Solar System mod is discussed as a result, and we also cover some communication mods that we've been using in recent play-through's of Kerbal Space Program.
We revisit some questions from the last episode in the real-space section and The Read Panda brings the Theia Theory, which covers the most popular idea on the formation of the Moon, to his Space History Corner.

Perhaps our most wayward episode with the longest intro to date!
We get immensely side-tracked during our intro segment, but it should still be good entertainment. We’ll blame the lack of new KSP contact, thanks to the current pandemic. Skip the first 30 minutes if all you want is Kerbal Space Program news.
Although not much has happened for KSP 1 or 2 in recent times, we still have a good go at discussing some of the past and upcoming features. We cover off on what update 1.8 ‘Moar Boosters!’ brought us for Kerbal Space Program and we also talk about our thoughts on the latest KSP2 dev update.
In real-space we spin some facts on the Mars Helicopter while celebrating NASA bringing back the ‘Worm Logo’. TheReadPanda talks about the space-stations that ‘never were’ in his History Corner.

We review the biggest changes in the Kerbal Space Program 1.9.1 release and attempt to drag out some of the upcoming features from the latest KSP2 news. Real-space covers the new Mars 2020 rover 'Perseverance' and we try some inventive names for the new Mars Helicopter that will be accompanying the roaming vehicle. Matoro also comes up with a new technical term for solar panel deployment...
