Kerman Reentry Physics - Kerbal Space Program
I did some experiments to see how the wind resistance of Kerman compares to other items in KSP, the answer I got was.... interesting.

KSP D
ksp-doesn't-teach-rocket-engine-plumbing
A huge part of rocket science is the system of tanks, piping, valves and burners which deliver the fuel from the tanks to the engine. I try to explain why different designs exist and the advantages that more complicated designs deliver.
To be clear, I'm not a rocket scientist, I only play one on the internet.
Rocket engine diagrams are largely from Wikipedia with some

ELON
elon-musk's-forgotten-career-in-video
Back in 1994 Elon Musk was another new graduate in Silicon Valley doing whatever work he though would be interesting, this lead him to work with 'Rocket Science Games' who at the time thought the future of gaming would be build around live action cutscenes, I'm so glad they were wrong.
His 2 game credits are
Loadstar: The Legend of Tully Bodine

Cadillacs and Dinosaurs: The Second Cataclysm
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadillacs_and_Dinosaurs:_The_Second_Cataclysm
You can also play a web browser version of Blastar, a game with about the same level of gameplay as these epic CDROM productions, but without the production values.

I've not nowhere to expand to, and none of the neighbours look to be pushovers given by inability to support large fleets, so it's time to start building new homes for my citizens in deep space.
Also, realizing that some of my refugees would be much happier living on an ocean world.

GUIDE
guide-to-titans-in-eve-online-what-does
If you're interested in playing Eve Online you can sign up for an extended free trial: https://secure.eveonline.com/trial/?invc=5e220162-831d-4e3b-b6cc-09a8bd191d30&action=buddy
Titans at 15km long supercapitals, they come with a giant 'doomsday' superweapon which will incinerate a regular capital ship in one shot, they carry smaller Capital sized weapon batteries and have the ability to support regular fleets with their jump bridge capabilities and jump clone facilities.
Building one of these in game takes months, and costs the equivalent of 3-4000 US dollars if you were to convert PLEX rather than making the money in game (depending on the exchange rate).

DO SP
do-spacecraft-really-have-to-endure-the
An extended answer to a question I keep seeing - can spacecraft avoid the furious heat of reentry by slowing down before reaching the atmosphere, or, but flying above it until slow enough to avoid it.
The footage is from the Artemis 1 mission reentry.
