We've hit a crossroad. We came back to celebrate KSP2, but it's not quite there yet. Maybe we jumped on the bandwagon too quickly. Maybe we're too long in the tooth to report on another development of a game. Or maybe we need to focus a little less on just KSP. We discuss our feelings about the show as it stands currently and ask for some feedback on where we go from here.

As promised, we took an opportunity to look back on KSP1 and share our memories and experiences throughout Kerbal Space Program's initial development. We reminisce about the early days of KSP1's first release, our KSPTV experiences and our early hopes during KSP's beta builds.

In this episode Digi, Mator and Aki discuss the upcoming KSP2 Science Mode update and what we believe to expect. Aki mentions the OSIRIS-Rex mission extension that will see it become OSIRIS-APEX and Digi does not dissapoint with his not-science questions. Aki also carries on the running A.I. theme with an Olive Garden commercial.

Digi returns after a period of time away so Mator and Aki catch him up on recent discussions. TheReadPanda is absent for this recording. We discuss the recent KSP2 v0.1.3 update as well as the seemingly contraversial 20% discount that is currently on offer for the game. Mator manages to view three rocket launches on one trip and we wonder the future of private ventures after the news of the Titan sub. We end on a high note with Digi's not-so-science science.

Digi is away for this episode, but Kofeyh returns to fill the space. We have a deep discussion about the different ways early access was handled by Kerbal Space Program and Kerbal Space Program 2. Mator covers the latest rocket launches and Moon lander progress in our Real Space section, and we also return to Artificial Intelligence and how it's used in modern astronomy.

While TheReadPanda is away we drag Kofeyh back into the podcast to talk about his experience with Kerbal Space Program 2. We also discuss Nate's post about the issues with announcements and the backlash from the community. In our Real Space section we take ourselves back to 2016 when Aki, Digi, Kofeyh and Newbius Maximus went on a trip to Esperance to see the Skylab Wreckage. And, as always, we are left with heads-in-hands after Digi runs through his not-so-science questions.

Digi is away to celebrate Mother’s Day, leaving Mator, TheReadPanda and Aki to run the show. Despite the lack of interruptions and questionable science, the episode still runs on as usual. We end up discussing the KSP1 mod Kerbal Environmental Institute and the differences between Career and Science modes. We cover some more upcoming features of the next KSP2 patch. Mator brings up the Fomalhaut asteroid belt and Read brings some good news about the Voyager space probes. During Read-Ed, we digress off onto a big tangent about Artificial Intelligence.

All four hosts are back together again. Aki compares the frame rates of Kerbal Space Program 2 v0.1.2.0 between two PCs that are 10 years apart in age with interesting results. Matoro covers his media experiences with the Starship launch and his interview with Victor Glover, the pilot of Artemis 2. TheReadPanda brings an interesting discussion about the Moon lander contract for Artemis 3. Digi, of course, brings his own science to the show.

Mator is away for the Starship launch, leaving Digi to run the show. We cover Patch 2 of Kerbal Space Program 2 (v0.1.2.0) and realise some parallels between the development of KSP1 and KSP2. TheReadPanda brings us down to Earth with a reality check on the future of space-faring propulsion methods. Digi leaves us checking our own reality with his (not so) sciency questions.

Aki returns for this episode and makes an apology for the previous stalling of the podcast. He also explains how the new format of the show will be from now onwards. CKAN for Kerbal Space Program is given some hype and we discuss some of the more unusual experiences with KSP2. The Real-Space sections goes wayword with some future ideas for the International Space Station and Mator announces some rather big news regarding Artemis 2. Because the recording happens to fall on April Fools, Digi actually tries to deliver some real science...
