help Kerbal Space Program FAQ
What is the main goal in Kerbal Space Program?
You build rockets, planes, probes, and crewed spacecraft for the Kerbals, then try to reach orbit, moons, and planets. The first big milestone for many players is getting a stable orbit around Kerbin.
Does Kerbal Space Program teach real orbital mechanics?
Yes, in a simplified but meaningful way. Players learn concepts like apoapsis, periapsis, delta-v, staging, transfer windows, and gravity turns through trial and error.
What is the difference between Career and Sandbox mode in KSP?
Sandbox gives you all parts immediately, while Career mode adds funds, science, contracts, and facility upgrades. Science mode sits between them by keeping the tech tree but removing money management.
Who developed the original Kerbal Space Program?
The original Kerbal Space Program was developed by Squad and reached its 1.0 release in 2015. Private Division later published Kerbal Space Program 2, which had a much rougher early-access reception.
