KSP - Minmus Space Station - Episode 4
Kerbal Space Program or KSP is a game that allows you to construct rockets and probes and explore celestial bodies. Its up to you how the future of the kerbal #39;s space program is achieved by either success or Jebidiah #39;s wife beating you to death. In this episode I talk about the space shuttle and about our space program. I also attach the second solar panel to the Minmus space station! Its starting to look like a real space station! Version of KSP 0.18.2

The Skylab Orbital Workshop experienced a failure that led to a replacement shield to protect against solar heating. CREDIT: NASA.

Skylab was the first space station operated by the United States. It spent six years orbiting Earth until its decaying orbit caused it to re-enter the atmosphere. It scattered debris over the Indian Ocean and sparsely settled areas of Western Australia.

Three crews successfully lived on board the station for several months each. The last crew spent 84 days in orbit an American record that stood until the shuttle era.

Rocky start

Various NASA centers had kicked around ideas for a space station for years before Skylab launched. However, the agency was very focused on the space race and moonshots that dominated public consciousness in the 1960s. Money for other endeavors was not as available.

As Apollo began to wind down in the early 1970s, NASA began an Apollo Applications Program to fly unused hardware from the moon program. One idea, proposed by famous Apollo rocket engineer Wernher von Braun, would be to build a space station out of an unused rocket stage. The design evolved over the years as NASA struggled with reduced funding.

Skylab finally aimed for space on May 14, 1973. However, a meteoroid shield that was supposed to shelter Skylab accidentally opened about 63 seconds into the launch. The still-thick atmosphere tore the shield off, plunging Skylab into a serious situation. The facility experienced communications problems with the antenna as a result of the incident, but that was the least of the agency's worries.

"When the meteoroid shield ripped loose, it disturbed the mounting of workshop solar array wing No. 2 and caused it to partially deploy. The exhaust plume of the second stage retro-rockets impacted the partially deployed solar array and literally blew it into space," NASA wrote.

Workers at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center scrambled to stabilize the station. Among other measures, they put the station in an attitude that would minimize overheating, and came up with ways to cope with the station's reduced power situation.

Meanwhile, the first crew led by Apollo 12 commander Pete Conrad would need to make the station habitable before they could get to work. The crew's first challenge during the spacewalk, just hours after launch, was deploying the solar array, but initial attempts met with no luck as a metal strip holding it down refused to give way.

Space Station 13 (SS13) - Part Seventeen - Spine-tingling Snarls [HD]
In this episode Link is continuously clicking, Luke and Andrew try to traverse the station, struggling to fix it up and avoid pressurised areas. They manage to get to engineering where Link awaits to pounce with a strong alien assault on the duo. Excuse the violent and disgusting noise the alien makes, but it #39;s there for special audio effects. Link ejaculates green liquid pretty much everywhere, Luke attempts to keep him and Andrew alive and Andrew brainlessly swings his baton around in attempt to kill the alien. The alien traps them in engineering and continues to attack them and smash windows. Andrew gets critically wounded and sliced up, but Luke manages to triumph.

In this episode Link was captured by Andrew and Luke. Being held in a captivity for days upon days, they did autopsies, tests and anal analyses on Link. This made Link tremendously indignant, gnawing his teeth and scratching against the windows. This was met by blast doors, force fields and mind-blowing sleep particles being flooded into Link #39;s chamber. Immune to this laughing gas Link manages to break the windows and let the gas out to affect Luke and Andrew. While waiting for a moment to escape Link makes a little nest for himself; spitting weeds everywhere in his chamber. Whilst Luke is concerned about the gas problem, Link attempts to persuade Andrew to let him free. However, he is strong willed and Link is infuriated by this resistance.

Megaman Starforce 1: Space Station Comp 2 Taurus Constellation Puzzle Solution
No video, just a pic of what the solution should look like. Astronomy never was my strong suit in school (and yes, I did take Astronomy in college), so it took me a while to come up with the solution, even while following The_Sixler #39;s GameFAQs walkthrough (sorry, both dude and GameFAQs, but it #39;s true. There #39;s no PNGs or pics on what the solution should look like). I skipped Cygnus #39;s puzzle on purpose because it #39;s a cakewalk and is pretty much a cross. I #39;ll have Libra #39;s puzzle up as soon as I solve it. Credit to GameFAQs and The_Sixler for getting me this far.

International YouTube Space Station - HOCgaming #39;s Module
Hey guys, Harv here, and welcome to the International YouTube Space Station! I decided that the Space Station needed a little light entertainment to keep the Kerbonaughts safe from the effects of prolonged micro-gravity. IVA doesn #39;t include an exercise bike, you see, so what better than a zero-gravity sports pitch? If participants hit the net, not only do they lose the point but they also have to pay for and repair the expensive equipment.

Megaman Starforce 1 Space Station Comp 3 Puzzle (Libra)
OK, I #39;ll admit: This one was a bit easier than the last one, but I also followed The_Sixler #39;s walkthrough and got through the puzzle on the 2nd or 3rd try. And if you #39;re wondering how I #39;m clearing these puzzles so fast: Walkthrough and because I used an AR code to disable random virus battles that would normally slow my progress down quite a bit. So...enjoy! If the next puzzle #39;s tough enough, I #39;ll post it. I saw it #39;s Ophuica #39;s puzzle I #39;ll be facing next, so...yeah, that might be a bit of a hindrance to me, but no worries. A fellow gamer always helps out another if they aren #39;t facing off.
