"400 m/s - should be enough to return to Kerbin" - Goes to Jool instead

"Bill saves Delta-V on this landing as well by wheelbraking from orbital speed" Not something I thought I'd hear

Love it! I'm very impressed with what you managed to pull out of one NERVA

"Quirks and features" "A Brad Score" "The most notable quirk" Is Bradley turning into the Doug DeMuro of spacecraft? Find out on the next episode of DBZ.

that took some _Nerve_ on a side note, this man literaly lithobraked from orbit using _Actual wheelbrakes_

Minmus: Aight Gilly: Woah Laythe: YEET

Bill taking a sabbatical? As if the multi-year transfer time wasn't enough?

Imagine nasa doing this: "Hey, we still have 210 kg of fuel" "Lets land on the moon then"

"Thhhisssssss, is an all new 2019 Nerv Single Stage To Orbit, and today Im going to review it" -Brad

Wait a second did he just strand bill? Do I see a disgustingly over engineered rescue vehicle coming up?

What is this? An early Christmas present? He’s back!

wait a sec, zip ties... NOW WE KNOW WHAT AUTOSTRUTS ARE MADE OUTA!

*On Minmus* "Damn, is 1km of Delta-V sufficient to go back to kerbin?" Bradley "Aight I'm coming, Eve..."

I can’t hear this song without thinking about Tom and Jerry when Tom plays the piano at that concert

Is there a chance that we could get a behind-the-scenes video once? Like, how do you start designing a craft for such a mission, what iterations do you go through? I'd also be interested in the same, but about the mission itself: how do you decide what ascent profile to use? Once you're in LKO, do you simply look at a dV map and decide where to go with what you have? I don't care if such a behind-the-scenes video is 12 hours long, I'd be very interested.

"I've let go of all my worldly possessions. I've burned every bridge. I've stolen an irreplaceable ship, I've flown it through millions of kilometers of darkness. I've waited for years. Finally, I can spend the rest of my life basking in the sun and surf of a lonely paradise moon. Nobody knows where I am. Nobody will find me ever again. When I open this hatch, all of my trouble will be forgotte-" _all hatches are obstructed, can't exit._

I love the avian design of the wings, you could name the ship the hummingbird.

brad: strands bill meanwhile in the distance: "on a lowly planet slowly spinning it's way to damnation..."

As soon as I saw 2 km/s in LKO, I knew you were going to Gilly, you absolute UNIT of a madlad

bill got stuck on laythe? this is a job for The Blunderbirds!

One kerbal, one engine, 38 years

This is the second mission that Brad has completed (with extra points for style) that I had previously believed to be 100% impossible.

I think that Bill's unexpected vacation is getting on the "Nerv" of KSP people

Your use of comic sans in the thumbnail was a great touch.

I approve of the liszt in the background

Good lord man, I legitimately thought you were just going to orbit! ...Then I legitimately thought you were just landing on minmus. You continue to surprise me with the order of magnitude of your efficiency.

Yay! Hungarian Rhapsody! Next step is to bring back Bill....,right?

where was the brad score

You ever see a craft that just shouldn’t work so much that it makes you angry? Yeah that’s this SSTO for me

Nobody: Bill: *”The Return of the King”*

I missed these videos so much. Please do more Odyssey by Bill!

I can't believe you had the "NERV" to do this!

Hurry, watch the video before the music is copyright claimed!

This channel deserves more subs. It has great content and no clickbait.

Wow. He's back.

he's back

every engineer ever: A Rudder is always a good idea on a plane Bill: What's a Rudder?

Damn congrats on getting married to that SSTO Bill, my man.

I'm a huge fan of the classical music in all these videos. Good choices

Reminds me of a Romulan Warbird, I quite like this craft

imagine if an astronaut had a mission to get to orbit and they visit jupiter

Below is a link to my autotrader column where I've compiled a list of other Nerv only missions.

Uau, meu presente de natal chegou adiantado! Obrigado Bradley, estava com saudades de vídeos nesse formato.

Your ability with this game amazes me every single time. Great video!

Who allowed you to be so good at this Thanks for the early Christmas present

Bradley I think these videos bring me more joy than any other on KZfaq... thanks m8

All of the KSC staff: so uh where can you even go with such a small ssto? Bill: Yes.

To Jool after 2 prior landings with a single fucking nerva. You overshadowed Stratzenbiltz in a Phoenix-shaped flying wing.

Brad the kind of guy to give his own sibling a "Brad Score" smh

0:54 Okay Doug you should try to get him to voice one of your craft reviews

William hath returned to his quest! Huzzah!

I hope Bill is a AAA member or has the Blunderbirds on speed dial.

Beautiful. The Immortal Bill deserves a bit of a break after his multiple hundred-year missions for the KSP.

Forever amazed by the resourcefulness and insanity of these videos

A new video from brad AND Kurzgezagt?!?!

Laythe: has air and water perfect for life Also laythe: no life or plants naturally there

this is the most ridiculous and over-the-top flex I have ever seen and I love it

I love these so much, keep up the amazing work kerbal komrade

0:56 ok doug 😂😂😂

Waking up to this is the best Christmas present I could ever receive

33 seconds ago this video was posted and i'm here it has finally been done

2hr ion propulsion burn for me. Thanks for this

Sure, it looks pretty on the outside, but I hear the panel gaps on the inside are so bad that Bill stores his tubes of snack goo in them.

Possibly Name for it: OBB-N 33 "Sparrow"

I can hear the Kerbals screaming as their bodies are destroyed by the radiation

loved the music, felt like i was watching mary poppins

Thanks for this amazing Christmas present.

Brad Bemuro

Me with 1000 m/s of dV: "Oh no is this enough to go back" Brad with 1000 m/s: "Let's go to Eeloo!"

i was reading the entire beginning in a Doug DeMuro voice in my head lol

starting music: * plays * everyone : BILL FINALLY MARRIED ROBOTUG ?????

Bill has returned at last, thank you.

Absolutely awesome, these videos help motivate me to become better at my favourite game. Thank you!

Nice Doug Demuro joke at the beginning

8:24 I like the word earliar. Describes someone who says lies right to your ear :D

"Pilot the spaceship Shinji, or Kerbal will have to do it again"

Loved the Doug de Miro reference

I like that it sort of resembles the Egyptian Horus falcon symbol

You called the nerv an atrocious choice for this task but honestly if anything you going to minimus, gilly AND laythe after reaching orbital is a very serious compliment to the nervs, once IN orbit they’re insanely efficient and are far more flexible than ion engines, all with a SINGLE nerv too, imagine if you scaled it up further, probably my single favorite engine in the game

These gravity dances always arouse my admiration )))

Bill! I missed these series

ITS BACK! *literally one of my favourite series*

Hungarian rhapsody really goes well with this insanity

odyssey returns!

Good to see you back!! Love your content, keep up the great work!!

Our exploding boi has returned

And then there is me who uses several of the largest fule tanks and more than enough mammoth engines to fly my scrap pile into a wanabe orbit

Mind-boggling.

Fair play Bill knows how to ration his snacks

WOOOOOOOO

Finally! The Return of the Best Book Thing in the World!

Just beautiful

Wow.

My favorite vid of yours.

Heyyyy! Thanks a lot. I missed you :)

The music and the video fit together so well. That was really cool... and educational!

The music which starts at 7:41 is perfect for Eve. It doesn't seem to be in the list at the end, though there's too many variatons on them to really check.

Next time on The Odyssey by Bill: Nerve only, no mining, SSTE (Single Stage To Everywhere)

The space wizard returns

Bill is back!
