How many biomes are in KSP?

The planet Kerbin has 11 biomes, plus a large number of surface-only “location biomes” comprising Kerbal Space Center and related launch sites. Roughly 60% Kerbin's surface is Water biome. Grasslands and Highlands biomes cover most of the land area.

What are the hardest planets to land on in KSP?

We can't, we physically can't. We can yeet the trash to the nearest star system, but we can't reach our own star. The same is true in Kerbal Space Program where one of the hardest planets to land on is the one closest to the sun: Moho . Like Mercury, the planet it's based on, it's deep in the sun's gravity well.

ride along on our adventure.” He (Doug Ellison) notes that many at NASA use KSP to experiment in ways that their more unforgiving real-world environment wouldn't allow them to do.

How many planets are in KSP 1?

It has Kerbol as the central body which is orbited by 5 planets and 2 dwarf planets . Only Kerbin and Laythe have an oxygen atmosphere and only Kerbin hosts life. With the outermost dwarf planet Eeloo it reaches up to 113 549 713 200 m (about 113.5 Gm or 0.76 AU) out into space.

Do any KSP planets have rings?

Voon is known as the 6th and largest planet around Kerbol. It is one of the 2 gas giants in the Kerbol System and the only planet with a well-defined ring system .

What is the easiest planet Kerbal?

Duna orbits Kerbol with an inclination nearly identical to that of Kerbin, making it one of the easiest planets to encounter.

What is the most efficient plane in KSP?

The Goliath is the most efficient stock jet engine, with an Isp of 12600s (jets have constant Isp regardless of pressure).

What is the largest planet in KSP?

Jool is the sixth planet from Kerbol. It is the largest planet in the Kerbol system, it has 5 moons: Laythe, Vall, Tylo, Bop, and Pol.

How many official biomes are there?

Some count six (forest, grassland, freshwater, marine, desert, and tundra), others eight (separating two types of forests and adding tropical savannah), and still others are more specific and count as many as 11 biomes .

What is the hottest planet in KSP?

The atmospheric pressure at the planet's surface is 92 times that of Kerbin, or roughly the pressure found 900 meters underwater on Kerbin. Eve is by far the hottest planet in the Kerbol System, with a mean surface temperature of 735 K, even though Moho is closer to Kerbol.

What is the easiest planet in KSP?

Duna is often the easiest planet to achieve encounters because of a low orbital inclination.

List of places and biomes in KSP (planetary geology & geography)

There are several biomes on Kerbin, and if you go to orbit, you've got low orbit, high orbit and maybe more, I can't remember.

There are few stages of Kerbin's atmosphere.

So far I've seen the deserts of Kerbin, island muddy dirt, regular dirt around the KSC and the launch pad char+goo. Also, north polar ice and sea near the KSC. There are highlands, too (high mountains without snow). (beware - these are not official names of the places you see written in the experiment dialog boxes)

I've sent a probe to Minmus and, except the high and low orbit, there's the surface, and that's it. Regardless of the landing spot, the messages are the same. I've been jumping with the same probe around for an hour.

Cyan-green smooth terrain, pistachio-green plateaus, even the dirty parts (screenshot), it all seems to be one biome, unlike Kerbin.

MÃƒÂ¼n also has high and low orbit, and surface. I've got only 2 functional probes, so I can't claim that's all there is.

Let's report these places where experiments can be made. Keep it short and simple to avoid cluttering with unnecessary posts. Try to remember the proper names from the dialog boxes.

It's better not to reveal what the goo or science bay do in each situation. It's kind of a spoiler.
