Emagister presents to you the Rocket Game Science KSP Kerbal Space Program for Beginners Suborbital Flight, endorsed by SmartKids.School.

Rocket Game Kerbal Space Program is a space flight simulation. Players direct a nascent space program, staffed and crewed by green humanoid aliens known as “Kerbals”. The game features a realistic orbital physics engine, allowing for various real-life orbital maneuvers such as Hohmann transfer orbits and bi-elliptic transfer orbits.

The player administers a space program operated by Kerbals, a species of small green humanoids, who have constructed a fully furnished and functional spaceport called the Kerbal Space Center (KSC) on their home planet, Kerbin. Despite being shown as cartoonish beings sometimes lacking common sense, Kerbals have shown themselves capable of constructing complex spacecraft parts and performing experiments to realize their scientific goals.

About this course

The game is very challenging and it is ideal to:

- Unleash creativity, for accurate modeling of rocket construction and the underlying calculus an as an iterative design approach to learning from mistakes
- Be used to demonstrate Physics concepts and engineer creative solutions through (and often explosive) experimentation.
- Learn basic concepts like apoapsis, periapsis, elliptical orbits, angular momentum, delta-v, a ship’s trajectory, fundamentals of rocket science, and realistic modern-day space flight.
- Learn the weight-to-fuel ratio of your rocket and learn that small differences mean greater fuel efficiency and the difference between achieving mission goals or crashing, and burning.
