Collaboration kicks off at SXSW Gaming with first reveal during a live panel on show floor

The Planet Kerbin has a new partner in the exploration of its solar system. NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) has joined forces with Kerbal Space Program to create Kerbal Space Program: Asteroid Redirect Mission, a special update that adds realistic NASA rocket parts and missions to the award-winning indie space agency sim game.


行星Kerbin在它对太阳系的探索中将会迎来一位新的伙伴。NASA已经加入到KSP中：小行星捕获计划，这个更新将会加入很多现实中有的NASA的火箭零件和一些任务。

The mission shares the same name as the three-part mission which started in 2013 and is currently projected to be completed in 2022 with a manned mission onto an orbiting asteroid beyond the Moon. Kerbal Space Program and NASA will share the stage at SXSW Gaming on Saturday at 12:30 in the Palmer Events Center in Austin, Tex. The panel will offer the first look at the in-game mission as well as discuss the process of taking a real mission that is still highly conceptual and assembling it in Kerbal Space Program.


在SXSW上KSP和NASA会共用一个舞台，届时会让观众第一次看到这个任务的内容。

“Kerbal Space Program is about giving gamers the chance to dream big, even if they’re not astrophysicists. This relationship with NASA, the very beacon of big dreams and imagination, is going to give players a real opportunity to learn about the universe we’re living in,” Kerbal Space Program lead developer Felipe Falanghe said. “The Asteroid Redirect Mission is going to be one of the rewarding and challenging accomplishments in all of gaming. We can’t wait to see our current and future players take on this mission and perhaps, teach NASA a few tricks along the way.”

The mission mirrors NASA’s real operation in many ways. Namely, players will tackle the same three steps as NASA:


任务在很多方面反映了NASA的实际操作。玩家需要做到NASA要做到的三步工作：



Identify: Detect, target, distinguish and select the asteroids that you want to move


确认：发现，确认，辨识和选择想要移动的小行星



Redirect: Build a rocket ship and set course to intercept the moving asteroid, then position your ship to redirect the asteroid’s trajectory


捕获：制造一枚火箭来和小型星交会，然后改变它的方向



Research: Send your Kerbals on EVA (extravehicular activity) around the asteroids to conduct experiments on the object and gather valuable scientific data as it (and you) hurtle through deep space


研究：把你的小绿人送上去做实验然后获取可观的科学数据


“The collaboration with Kerbal Space Program can help drive interest by future explorers in next-generation technology development and deep space exploration, said Bob Jacobs, deputy associate administrator for Communications at NASA. “Having an element of the experience based in the reality of NASA’s exploration initiatives empower players to manage their own space program while getting valuable insight into the reality of studying asteroids as a next step in getting to Mars.”

Nearly a dozen new parts, including the game’s biggest fuel tanks, will help players tackle what is the most ambitious NASA mission to date. Another new part is the robotic grappling device, which players will use to snare the rock and redirect it into orbit around the Mun, Kerbin or other planets. This new device can also grab things other than asteroids, making it one of the most versatile parts added to the game. These new parts will not only help the Asteroid Redirect Mission but will also offer both new and old players the chance to experiment more in the game’s open sandbox mode.


约一打的新零件，包括游戏中最大的燃料罐，会帮助玩家达成NASA有史以来最有野心的任务。另一个新的零件是机械抓取装置，玩家可以用来套住石头然后将其拖进kerbin、mun或者其它行星的轨道。这个装置也可以用来抓取小行星，这让这个装置成为游戏中最有意思的零件。新零件不单只会帮助到小行星任务，更可以为玩家在沙盒模式下增加很多实验乐趣。



所以，目前收集到的关于NASA pack的信息如下：
1、独立于0.24更新
2、可以看作一个官方的mod，需要0.24版本支持
3、里头大概有一打NASA的玩意
4、里头有个大家伙，橙罐和它比起来就是个玩具
5、有个抓取装置
6、小行星不大，直径在三十米以下（待证实）
7、小行星随机生成，但是不会在kerbin附近生成（待证实）
8、不要钱



未知的内容：
1、小行星是否会在地图上显示轨道
2、小行星是否有引力，是否能够捕获飞船（encounter and escape）
3、小行星的重量

不知道小行星是什么物质构成的，是松散岩石还是有铁质核心，或者干脆就是一坨铁镍合金，这样就要根据结构和组成来决定布置引擎的位置和协调推力大小了。
