KSP - Building a Single Launch Eeloo Base! 

Matt: This is so easy guys! It’s not rocket science! Me: wait

Great idea to put RTGs in hydroponics garden. Nothing like some irradiated food

Imagine having to spend the rest of your life in a space-base located on a hill with a slight incline. Like, this is cool and all, but logistically speaking they'll have all gone mad after a month of not walking straight.

Sike! You made a Christmas special on this Colony 3 years later

"there's a great article on the wiki about how asparagus works" Matt Lowne 2017

IKEA + Eeloo = IKEeloo? Since you flatpacked your base inside a fairing to assemble later like IKEA furniture?

Matt’s Logic: CAN’T LEAVE DEBREE IN SPACE!!!! Solution: Crash radioactive engines into planet surface

I hope you enjoyed! See the description for craft file, music and more content! Bear in mind that you'll need to fix all the stuff I mentioned in the video - I haven't modified it at all! twitter.com/Matt_Lowne

That's an awesome base you have there Matt! When is the housewarming party?

Last time I was this early Eeloo didn't exist

"it's the death wobble, there is probably a better term" no, no there is not.

Your ksp vids are some of the best around. Interesting and they inspire some of my builds

5:27 *Deploys Thermal Control System* *Immediately starts to overheat*

I suppose it's great how there's somehow 45 minutes of narration crammed into a 13 minute video, impressive!

i'm italian and your videos (and scott manley's videos) are motivating me to learn english...You deserve more subs :DD

just got my first probe to eeloo today, feels great

I really like your closing music with screenshot; it's a little moment of zen that I appreciate. Wonderful work!

#MattLowneIsAwesomeInKSP

I'm really enjoying these voiceover videos matt!

That bit where you actually showed you press f9 had me going. Love it

Cool one Matt, nice use of your classic narrative style.

astronauts:so houston, how can we go back home? *No one:*

This is so awesome, thanks Matt, i have been waiting to see another base. i think there awesome and is been forever since you made a eeloo video This just made my day!

Thank you for your wonderful videos Matt! I always enjoy watching them!

Very inspiring, thanks! :) Now to try and finally build a base on Minmus... :D

To build bases I just use USI colonization systems and drop of a ship with tons of materialkits and then drop off a DIY box with the base assigned to it and have the ship already their build it,then I send the crew in transport ships.

wow thanks! You just told me how to get rid of the death wobble, nearly tore apart my fledgeling space station, lost several fuel tanks, now I know how to avoid it! marvy

Your ship designs are phenomenal, I wish I could build as efficiently and as good as you do. I am subscribed for some more awesome content!

We jus gonna ignore how matt fought back against the kraken and won

Matt, I genuinely enjoy your work and dedication. It makes for a really good piece of entertainment. Thanks :)

Really nice video man. I really liked it and btw I was good enough in this game and knew how to fly to any farther then Minmus I would take those thrusters and lunch them for a low orbit around Eloo

That Is Soooo Awesome Matt

this is an amazingly well made video, i just bought kerbal space program partly because of this. Thank you for helping a brother out!

Great little video, thanks!

i swear he mention the oberth effect in every single video

7:00 the kerbals go nuts and start freaking out or something.

Could you make building tutorial?? Both Beginner and advanced :)

I've no idea how I missed this. It's a good one!

I challenge you to make a flyable car. That goes to Eeloo and back.

Easy Sub!!! great video and straight to the KSP geeky action!

Great build, excellent video! But I have to ask, would that refinery be of any practical use or is it just aesthetic? Cause it doesn't look like you can do anything with the once it has been collected.

You, sir, have earned yourself a subscriber.

it's official. the UK has officially conquered the kerbol system, all thanks to a chap with a monocle who flies single-launch bases. nicely done. (p.s. the "chap" as in matt lowne, not my profile picture)

I may not be able to do this kind of thing but I can find inspiration from youtubers like yourself

Damn, and I felt proud just for getting a little ion probe into high Eeloo orbit.

Its funny to hear this Star Trek Online Music playing at the beginning 😂👌🏻

something something absolute madman

omg dude you could've used the landing rockets as satelites for mapping and communication with the kerbals in the base 24/7. great video as always

I really love your british accent :D

AMAZING

wait... if the landing boosters had solar panels and one of those radar things could you make a viable com system with them?

👌perfection👌

Great video

can you do a tutorial in how to build multi launch bases e.g. one on mun

Damn, I wish I could play like you... amazing video!

!!!Man you have awesome vdeos

A little while after I began the game I made my way to the Mun. Unfortunately, I had no RCS or SAS control because all my pilots were stranded... on the Mun. Yes. I preformed a near perfect, manual Mun orbit, spotting, and landing. Also I stranded my pilots there because they were all in one ship when they crash landed. I was (if not still) an idiot.

Matt lowne = ksp GOD

Your a Wizard Matt Lowne

Tip: Use action groups to detach the goddamn monoprop tanks

You could just make a huge ship out of 1 of the fairing pieces.

lol loved that f9 shot

Can we talk about the perfect warp at 2:00

awesome

Ah, you could have used those spared fuel tanks for the Eeloo landing as relay stations!

matt speaks !!

YAY!!!! 50K SUBS!!!!!!!!

9:00 And all the Kerbals onboard are having seizures, so...

I love this Video

When is the next expedition eve? it's the whole reason I subscribed.

Another thing you can do about space debris, which has the advantage of giving you LOTS of practice at rendevous & docking too, is build a de-orbiter satellite. Basically it needs a claw, quite low thrust but lots of fuel (so you don't have to keep refuelling it all the time - ion engines are good but expensive). You claw onto the debris, pull it's periapsis down into the atmosphere, let go of it, then push your periapsis back up again. If you're doing this with ion thrusters and solar panels, make sure you've got enough thrust to do BOTH maneuvers on the day side of the planet!

3:00 that's actually incredibly realistic, despite looking like an engine bug. The Soviets encountered a very similar problem with their first space station

the fairings were more big that the base, haha

thats pretty cool if only i were this adept at ksp-ing

thats awsome

Me at the same time struggling to build a simple Mun lander that actually comes back to Kerbin^^

He is using words i cannot comprehend and i have a diverse vocabulary

How do ppl manage this stuff ? My first interplanetary probe to Duma crashed because I didn't know the atmosphere was that thin... Also, what recording software do you use? My footage keeps lagging and jittering every three seconds.

NICE ! I think an Eeloo base was the most requested thing on your channel ;p And you still haven't answered to my tweet : What's your favorite drink and how much does it cost ? ( I'm guessing beer :D ) Cuz I want to buy you one to thank you for so much HQ content !

Your a freak at this game man I can't even work out the whole node maneuver thing haha my axis never line up with where i want them to be

what amazes me that you have managed to align the center of thrust and center of mass (seriously how?)

Coooooool

yes put your garden right next to your rtgs it will make the plants taste better. it will also make them glow. lol

Cool Videos, Matt! Can you please make a Video how to create new Kerbals because I need some

great!

The nice kerbal way :p EDIT : oooooooo... AN at the end ^^

awesome GG

This is a very nice base. The way that I do my missions to other planets is: 1) Send a satellite 2) Send a rover to find a base location 3) Send a Space Station and crew (if possible put it in a geosynchronous orbit over base location) 4) Send a Kerbal return ship and dock it with the station 5) Send a refueling barge OR a orbital refueling ship that can fly up and down from the planet/moon 6) Send a base and rover truck 7) Send crew to base with a craft capable of orbiting and docking with space station After all of that you have a station, a ground base, a refueling platform, a way to ship fuel from ground to orbit, a way to fly from ground to orbit and vice versa, and a way to fly home and back. After all that I try to set up 5or so landing zones with small structures and refueling stations and a satellite network. That way i can fly or "jump" all over the planet and send ships back and forth. I treat this the same way as "completing the level" and think of it like I have set up industry on the planet. You could use mods to give your bases more uses but I just like part mods and some like Prop Monitor, and Scan Sat, and Hangers if i'm worried about part count.

so when is the next expedition eve coming?

the way you dramatize.. man it just makes me smile. you should do it more.

We choose to go to Eeloo in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard!

Who else thinks it would be cool if KSP was online?

that feel when i cant even get to mun

This is amazing,so cool Btw when is the next Expedition Eve episode?

Best song for the start ;) ice cap zone 2 i think

All that good *Shhtupphh*

that F9 tap XD

nice
