To reach those far-flung stars, you’ll now be able to establish orbital and planetary colonies, staging grounds for the next leg of your cosmic journey. The kerbals, I think, would certainly understand.įlying to the Mun and beyond is just the beginning of your progression through the solar system and, eventually, the galaxy. A long runway for space planes suggests how fresh supplies and colonists will reach this outpost on the planet Duna, while the ramp at the end of the runway immediately makes me want to ruin the ambience by strapping a rocket to a rover and seeing how far it could jump.
