Juno (JUpiter Near-polar Orbiter) in Kerbal Space Program



Kerbal Space Program

Kerbal Space Program is hard. Why? Because real life is hard. You know how people always say “It’s not rocket science” in that annoying, pedantic tone? Well in this case, KSP is quite literally rocket science.
 Kerbal Space Program is one of the best of its kind. It’s an adult Lego set (or K’Nex set) given life. It’s creative, it’s complicated, and when you succeed in KSP it’s not because the game let you succeed—it’s because you actually learned something new and applied those concepts appropriately.

JUNO & Amateur radio operators around the world ....

As NASA's Jupiter-bound Juno spacecraft swung past Earth on Oct. 9, 2013, amateur radio operators around the world sent a Morse Code "HI" to the spacecraft. Would Juno hear their call?



Published on Dec 10, 2013 During its close flyby of Earth, NASA's Jupiter-bound Juno spacecraft listened for a communication from amateur radio operators transmitting from locations around the world. This video clip depicts results, the "dits" and the "dahs," of this high-flying social experiment. The full image caption for this movie is available at: http://photojournal.jpl.nasa.gov/cata... A four-minute documentary depicting the efforts of a few of the amateur radio operators who participated in the event can be seen at: http://youtu.be/_yqHy_MpNiQ
