This page lists the rocket '''parts''' that are included with the latest paid version of [[Kerbal Space Program]], currently 0.17. These parts are also called '''vanilla parts''', '''default parts''', and '''stock parts'''.
 
  
For a list of all the parts available in the demo version of Kerbal Space Program, look at the [[Demo_Parts|demo parts]] page.

Units are given as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_(unit) Newtons (N)] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram Kilograms (kg)], but there is likely a scaling factor involved. As long as your scaling factor is applied equally to all measures, the math will work just fine, so if you prefer, you can think in terms of metric tons and kN.

'''Parts''' are the basic assembly items for [[craft]] ([[rocket]], [[spaceplane]], [[lander]], etc) construction in [[Kerbal Space Program]]. As a whole, they compose the building materials the player can choose from in the '''Editor''' ([[Vehicle Assembly Building]], [[Space Plane Hangar]] and [[EVA Construction Mode|construction mode in outer space]]). Creating a spacecraft is similar to playing a children's construction kit. You need to take one part after another and connect them using special green [[CFG_File_Documentation#Node_Definitions|attachment nodes]], or some parts can be glued to the surface of other parts (the so-called "Radial mounted").
  
To reduce confusion, specific impulse is given in both velocity and time units.  Please see the discussion page for further reading on ways of expressing specific impulse.
+
The Kerbal Space Program includes many [[Stock craft|stock spacecrafts]] of various types, created from default parts, which can be uploaded to the [[Vehicle Assembly Building]], or the [[Space Plane Hangar]] in order to study and understand the principles of assembling vechiles in the game.

The default game (without DLC "[[Breaking Ground]]" and "[[Making History]]") has 368 parts to choose from (as of {{version|1.12.5}}); the latest demo {{version|1.0}} has [[Demo parts|26 parts]]. Default game parts are split up into fifteen major categories:

The parts in the game generally resemble those of the American Space Program ([[w:NASA|NASA]]) during the 1950s-1970s, the [[w:European_Space_Agency|ESA]] in the near past and Soviet (USSR) [[w:Soviet_space_program|cosmonautics]]<ref><small>In the Soviet Union, there was no such English-language term as "Soviet space program", which is listed on Wikipedia. Everything related to space flights and their provision was called "cosmonautics"</small></ref> during the 1950s, for instance, the Mk1-3 Command Pod resembles the [[w:Apollo Command Module|Apollo Command Module]], the Mk1 Command Pod resembles the [[w:Mercury Capsule|Mercury Capsule]], and many LV-series engines resemble [[w:Atlas_(rocket_family)|American-built]] rocket parts. Kerbodyne rocket parts are virtually indistinguishable from real [[w:Rocketdyne|NASA rocket parts]] and Stayputnik resembles Soviet [[w:Sputnik 1|Sputnik 1]].

== Properties of the parts ==
{| class="wikitable sortable"
+
Since the [[KSP]] is a simulator, all the parts have a variety of properties to simulate their pseudo-real interaction with each other and with other objects in the KSP universe. The most widespread properties of parts that determine their physical characteristics are the mass of the part, the maximum temperature that the part can withstand without collapsing, the maximum tolerance to kinetic action ("tolerance impact"), which for convenience is expressed in meters per second, as well as drag. Some parts have been made [[physicsless part|physicsless]] to improve performance in the game from {{Version|0.23}} onwards. These parts add their mass and drag to their parent part, unless they become the root part of a vessel.

One of the most important properties of parts is their [[radial size]], which determines the transverse radius of the part. The radial size allows you to classify parts. The harmonious concept of any spacecraft implies connecting parts of the same radial size to each other, or using intermediate [[adapter]]s for a smooth transition from one size to another.

====Solid Fuel====
+
When playing in the "[[Career]]" mode, the monetary unit of the KSP universe with the name "[[Funds]]" ({{mark|fund}}) is introduced into the game, and then the following properties of the parts become relevant: the cost of the part and the cost of unlocking the part.

====RCS Fuel====
+
Many parts have some [[resource]] storing capacity, which makes the mass and the cost different in full and empty state. In this case the full is shown without brackets first, and the empty values are in round brackets under the full values. Some properties, like the entry cost, are not included, but can be found in the part-box on right side of the part's page.

====Fuselages====
+
A kerbal inventory system added new properties to the parts. Now, additionally, the parts have received a "packed volume", which affects the ability to place the part inside another part with inventory slots, and "stacking capacity", which shows how many parts of the same name can be stored simultaneously in one inventory slot. Some parts, such as command modules, Habitation modules, cargo storage units, etc., have inventory slots and can store other parts inside. For such details, there are "volume limit" properties that show the limit value of the volume that can be stored in one event inventoru slot.

Parts are the basic assembly items for craft (rocket, spaceplane, lander, etc) construction in Kerbal Space Program. As a whole, they compose the building materials the player can choose from in the Editor (Vehicle Assembly Building, Space Plane Hangar and construction mode in outer space). Creating a spacecraft is similar to playing a children's construction kit. You need to take one part after another and connect them using special green attachment nodes, or some parts can be glued to the surface of other parts (the so-called "Radial mounted").

The Kerbal Space Program includes many stock spacecrafts of various types, created from default parts, which can be uploaded to the Vehicle Assembly Building, or the Space Plane Hangar in order to study and understand the principles of assembling vechiles in the game.

The default game (without DLC "Breaking Ground" and "Making History") has 368 parts to choose from (as of version 1.12.5); the latest demo version 1.0 has 26 parts. Default game parts are split up into fifteen major categories:

Historical reference

The parts in the game generally resemble those of the American Space Program (NASA) during the 1950s-1970s, the ESA in the near past and Soviet (USSR) cosmonautics[1] during the 1950s, for instance, the Mk1-3 Command Pod resembles the Apollo Command Module, the Mk1 Command Pod resembles the Mercury Capsule, and many LV-series engines resemble American-built rocket parts. Kerbodyne rocket parts are virtually indistinguishable from real NASA rocket parts and Stayputnik resembles Soviet Sputnik 1.

Properties of the parts

Since the KSP is a simulator, all the parts have a variety of properties to simulate their pseudo-real interaction with each other and with other objects in the KSP universe. The most widespread properties of parts that determine their physical characteristics are the mass of the part, the maximum temperature that the part can withstand without collapsing, the maximum tolerance to kinetic action ("tolerance impact"), which for convenience is expressed in meters per second, as well as drag. Some parts have been made physicsless to improve performance in the game from version 0.23 onwards. These parts add their mass and drag to their parent part, unless they become the root part of a vessel.

One of the most important properties of parts is their radial size, which determines the transverse radius of the part. The radial size allows you to classify parts. The harmonious concept of any spacecraft implies connecting parts of the same radial size to each other, or using intermediate adapters for a smooth transition from one size to another.

When playing in the "Career" mode, the monetary unit of the KSP universe with the name "Funds" (Funds) is introduced into the game, and then the following properties of the parts become relevant: the cost of the part and the cost of unlocking the part.

Many parts have some resource storing capacity, which makes the mass and the cost different in full and empty state. In this case the full is shown without brackets first, and the empty values are in round brackets under the full values. Some properties, like the entry cost, are not included, but can be found in the part-box on right side of the part's page.

A kerbal inventory system added new properties to the parts. Now, additionally, the parts have received a "packed volume", which affects the ability to place the part inside another part with inventory slots, and "stacking capacity", which shows how many parts of the same name can be stored simultaneously in one inventory slot. Some parts, such as command modules, Habitation modules, cargo storage units, etc., have inventory slots and can store other parts inside. For such details, there are "volume limit" properties that show the limit value of the volume that can be stored in one event inventoru slot.

Tables of Parts

In the tables are the main properties of the parts. In most cases the tables follows the categorization structure of the game. In case of deviation, the position in part board of the game is noted.


Pods

This category contains the main details of any craft, from which the creation should begin. Please note that the EAS-1 External Command Seat cannot be the main part of the spacecraft. And if there is only one on the spaceship, then the ship will be out of control.
With version 0.90, unmanned command modules vary in SAS capabilities (see command module for details.)
