The study and exploitation of bugs is an important part of the scientific process, and has applications in the real world. For example, black holes are a ball of matter with so much gravity compacted into such a small area that even light isn't fast enough to escape if it gets too close. But there is one small detail that we've found that changes everything. Black holes can spin. They have angular momentum. And that means that we can extract energy from it. All we need is a mirror and some light, and we can siphon energy out via super-radiant scattering (and if we don't siphon energy and just let it build, we'll detonate the biggest explosion humanity could ever achieve). Seems a bit buggy, doesn't it?

a decade later and there are still new and novel builds, this game is the gift that keeps on giving

This shows that orbit is all about the speed relative to the planet's surface, not the altitude. We go to such high altitudes because our rockets would melt if we tried this IRL. But on the moon you can orbit easily by going up for a couple of seconds and at any altitude just burn relative to the surface. No atmosphere means no friction! :D great video friend

I did something similar in Spaceflight simulator, I switched to another craft while one of my other crafts was entering the atmosphere, and then timewarped 5x so then physics didn’t apply to the craft in the atmosphere so I basically had an orbit of 30 meters.

LOL landed exactly on the beach

"How... how do we get down ground control?" "Just you hold on, literally"

I wonder what would happen if you devised an entire fleet of 7K orbit satellites to just watch wiz over the KSC repeatedly. I'd imagine something would go horribly wrong on the craft loading in, that or the low altitude would consider the object out of orbit and delete it on reloads.

Very good. I was thinking "forced orbit" but the Ap and Pe do show the craft to be in free-fall. It's hard to decide if this is technically a cheat or not - the KSP atmospheric model is what it is. Have you tried it on Eve yet? 🙂

Ah yes, the dragless craft supervisor
