Me: "Oh he's going to a Minmus orbit! wow!" Bradley: "...to land that, I actually..." Me: *wtf?* Bradley: "Also 360 m/s should be enough to get back to Kerbin" Me: *actual midlife crysis*

I do love how he just casually doesnt talk about how hes orbiting Kerbin several times, *while entirely inside the atmosphere and in an unpowered glide*

Before I could even get a qualified run for my SRB river kile run, Brad goes and does this. Stunning work as always! I was actually surprised to see that this could manage the return trip too, but I see that the Mun gravity assist and Minmus wheel braking helped a lot with that. ... Now I need to get back to work...

The most impressive part is that landing. I’m in shock you managed that.

Next: Drain Valves to Eve

Because if there is a stupid idea in KSP, Brad does it. BRADLEY ALWAYS DOES IT!

When he said one stage I thought he was just gonna hit the space bar and watch the magic happen

That flying at the end was as if not more impressive that the whole "getting to Minmus and back on SRBs" thing.

That must've taken A LOT of part-clipping to get all those boosters in there! Judging by the exterior, I would've thought it was just one Clydesdale that somehow was able to go all the way to Minmus...

Brad: SRBS have no throttle Me: _Laughs in KAL Controller Thrust Curves_

I love how such a simple yet elegant rule, no staging allowed, has brought so much depth and intrigue; and kept players of your caliber with a game that is approaching 10 years old. Keep up the awesome work! :D

Delightful. Though with the density of all those clipped boosters, your fuel must be a solid bar of metallic hydrogen in there...

the landing 😲

The lad never fails to impress me

No one: Absolutely no one: Not a soul: Bradley: Hold my beer. On a serious note, absolutely excellent video as always. An incredibly skilled feat.

finally someone who can realistically touchdown an aircraft

That Minmus landing was one of the most elegant things I've ever seen.

Brad, I challenge you to go as far as possible with monopropellant.

that stream with Stratzenblitz was so much fun. I wish I could have caught more of it. I'll have my submission in soon!

thing that can be done easily with jets/rockets: exists Brad: *srb time*

The precision on this build is Unreal. Bravo Brad, bravo

“Let me tell you why this challenge is challenging” “Ahhhh so the floor is made out of floor”

Been looking forward for this video since the stream!

That Minmus touchdown was super silky smooth. Impressed as always!

Goodness, the things you pull off never cease to amaze me. That landing in particular was excellent. Pulling off that kind of landing at all is tough enough... with no throttle control? I shudder to think.

Every single video is a masterpiece. Super interesting and entertaining. Keep it up!

You Sir, Are a Madman.

As always, Brad, really cool, glad I subscribed!

Every video you make I find myself thinking "God dammit Brad! You can't keep getting away with this!"

massive rockets to get orbit: NO medium sized rockets to the mun: no printer and a firework to jool: ye

awesome stuff Bradley, very impressive

Jesus christ, that last part was insane, that thing has so much velocity!

you really see those reaction wheels shine while making those turns at 30m/s when landed back onto kerbin

That landing was wonderful! It's like a Door delivery of a minmus sample lol

Just the unpowered cross-range this has had me done. You squeeze things out of the game I never even knew possible

NASA Scientists real quiet rn

That one person in school: Math is nonsense! Where are you even gonna use it at? Bradley: To use a ventilator and willpower to reach sun orbit

That was actually amazing and nerve wracking.

2 years from now, this guy is going to do an unguided grand tour, I can see it now.

That landing was buttery smooth

Is anyone even talking about just how AMAZING his SSTO looks?

Man that landing 🗿

Bradley: “Having SRB not being able to be throttled isn’t the worst. It’s all efficiency.”

Freaking incredible

That's the most impressive landing i've ever seen

I can’t decide how Kerbal this is. On one hand, it’s literally all boosters, and something like sixty of them, but it’s such an elegant design that I hesitate to call it properly Kerbal.

This is absolutely, ridiculously silly. And I believe Mr Stance is fully aware of that fact. It is also a ridiculously cool achievement, with very decent documentation of it too.

Very impressive

I always watch full ads for u brad, ur content is amazing!

Commenting to help this in the algorithm

Catch a G or H type comet and transport it to Kerbin's orbit

Bradley Whistance:Solid rocket fuel SSTO to Minmus Me:Wait Thats Illegal

Oh, man, look at that... that´s cool!

I'd love to see a review of your aerodynamic trickery.

My man just flew from minmus to Kerbin without using a single rocket

That kerbin landing gave me anxiety

You're a wizard

The titles of your videos get more and more ridiculous each time you post! Great work Bradley.

7:28 nobody gonna mention how perfect a dismount that was?

2:10 _"Quite a lot of aerodynamic trickery and clipping has occurred..."_ Skillful use of passive voice!

66 shrimp execute order 66

“Unusually rapid ascent” 🤣

Sweet Kerbal crab cakes this is incredible

Little note: its possible to sync the thrust limit of srbs to throttle. How it acts is it will throttle up, but throttling down is slow (but it is throttle cotrol)

YES!!!! New vid!

needlessly showing off w/ that landing via the scenic route, oh you !

I'm convinced you are a wizard Prove me wrong, I *dare you*

Wow. Amazing. How are you doing during the virus? It's been hard for us all.

Had you considered using SRBs on a direct-eject course out of Kerbin to your target?

It's all very impressive, don't get me wrong - but clipping to this extent just doesn't feel right.

wow. just wow

Haha that getting out of the rocket on Minmus though. :D Besutiful rolls over the nose of the aircraft.

безумное вождение.

Squad: Minmus is the easiest body to land on. Bradley Whistance: I think not.

That Minmus landing! *chef's kiss* I can understand it needing a literal metric ton of reaction wheels. On large semi-realistic builds, I'm starting to rely on RCS instead of reaction wheels because if you don't clip the wheels together, they just take up too much space, requiring large heavy cargo bays in spaceplanes. But I suppose I could clip several together and just say they're heavier wheels, couldn't I? Edit! The Kerbin gliding was wonderful too! :D

Awesome video Brad! May I ask, what is your education background? Your knowledge of orbital manoeuvres is really something.

Dear brad, I challenge you to make it to minmus or the mun only using the closed cycle of the rapiers

Can you do an equation series? I would love to see the math for this on screen as you do it. You mention some nice numbers but my curiosity as to what formulas are used and how it all looks is orbital.

Cool!

1:50 wow that's one good looking vehicle, imma build something like that

I have stopped questioning the why, now I only have the HOWWWW? Do you do the exact math to know for how long each booster should burn, tons of quicksaving, or multiple tries? (Or all of the above?) I'm impressed that you got a good periapsis for aerobreaking, and then you even land on the KSC. Awesome work, man!

Amazing ! How much that big boy weight ? And awesome energy management at the end before the landing !

It’s sad I can’t like this twice

What a rockstar ! What controler are you using to fly in atmosphere ?

Nice landing

Great video! personally, I consider it cheating to have part clipping to the extent that you had it in this video. Do you think it would be possible without part clipping?

you actually do the math for these missions? thats insane

this thing looks like the F104 Starfighter

Next video: from eve's sea level to landing on all planets only on ion engines

When will you rescue Bill from Laythe?

This guy: hello and today were using a SSTO to go to minmus *the 28 stages on the left* : oh dont mind me :>

Hey brad, it'd be cool if you made a video explaining some of the aero exploits that are in game

Big challenge: same challenge, but without clipping

Moar Boosters good! The Kerbal way.

I wonder how many quickloads this mission took. Anyways, a mighty achievement.

Me: *can't make a normal SSTO that can make it into a circular orbit of Kerbin* Bradley: *grabs some SRBs* give me a second, I have an idea.

I challenge you to get to pol and back with a 8 ton wechicle. Btw great video :P

Well done!! The visual mod you're using is Spectra, yes?

Solid fuel to Eloo and back

youre crazy i like you but youre crazy -Old school
