Steemit In Space - Kerbal Colonization Lets Play! [EP 2] - Around the World
Welcome everyone to my new let's play series of Kerbal Space Program! KSP is a simulation sandbox game that puts you in control of a race of little green men that want to explore their solar system! You can build ships, rockets, space stations, rovers, and colonies with parts that fit together like legos, then launch, fly, and land them using realistic orbital, atmospheric, and gravitational physics across a total of 15 planets and moons in the standard version of the game.
In this episode I work on getting a geosynchronous orbit set up on a few satellites to ensure constant communication is available anywhere in the Kerbin system! This isn't quite as easy as it looks, and even though I didn't end up with a perfect orbit I had fun all the same, and if it still works, then that's a success!
What types of space exploration should Steemit fund? Let me know in the comments below!

Aside from MechJeb, do you have an other mods loaded?
quite a few lol. I may have to do a separate post to go over them and why I use em, but a short list includes B9, LacklusterLabs, near future (all but propulsion) Almost everything made by RoverDude, civilian population, KIS & KAS, RCS Build Aid, RealChute, and a flag mod so I can attach the steemit flag to everything.
I'm waiting on my new laptop to get in and, while it's not really a beast, you mentioned they'd implemented some memory optimizations into the game. Since it does have a separate GPU, I might be able to start it back up.
For sure, they also worked out the 64 bit version so it doesnt crash any more and allows you to use way more ram. So long as you dont run a crazy amount of mods you should be fine, and if you DO want to run a crazy amount of mods, there is a texture reduction mod to save ram if you dont mind not having 4k HD visuals lol.
