There's a chart: in high school, you learn a little bit about orbital mechanics. In college, you learn a little more. You get a job at NASA, you learn a little more. Then you play Kerbal and you become a master.

man this guy should just start streaming on twitch. I could watch him play this game all day

[coffemug]

i died on the inside when he yawed opposite to kerbins spin

It's so cute how he looks so dapper with his bowtie and how he clapped when he safely landed Baby's First Rocket (Mark 1 command pod, parachute, "Flea" solid fuel rocket and 4 fins).

Man landed on the moon faster than it takes me to launch my first satellite

[CldDemon]

My step father does something extremely similar to what Emil does it's almost the exact description he's given. His company works with nasa sometimes and he works with them on the software stuff for satellites

i love the way this guy explains things so eloquently but is also a bit silly! would love to watch him play again

[davidstinger]

Man, these guys take their job seriously, everytime they make an aerospace engineer play KSP they are sweating hard.

[funnyman]

Next time we should have a engineer build
A rocket and a pilot, pilot it

[misscrazy]

Emil's great!! I could watch him play this all day, he gets so into it it's so funny

[aring.]

This guy's great, hope we can see him again!

[admiralgalactica]

This Guy needs a YouTube Channel and a Twitch Channel so a cool and nice guy

[study-w-nika]

"I really don't have a goal in mind at this point. I am just exploring." That's my new life motto 😅 Emil is so educational and funny at the same time - he should stream more of these games 😍

this guy would become an addict if he found out about mods unless he already has

[fertileplanet]

Landing on the Mun for the first time is one of the most satisfying moments in KSP. Landing in KSP in general on other bodies is very satisfying.

Oh don’t worry, we’ve all let Jeb down a lot….Usually down to the ground at a not in anyway survivable speed.

[-_-O-_-]

This guy has obviously played before, took me so long to even learn the controls of this game let alone making maneuvers.
