Time warping speeds up time with two different types. The arrows above the MET show the active warp factor. On changing the factor the new warp factor is shown near the center of the screen.
Physical Time Warp
This is always applicable and tries to apply physics to the loaded crafts. For example drag and rotation are calculated and as this is very complex it allows only four different steps: 1× (default), 2×, 3× and 4×
Non Physical Time Warp
With non physical time warp it is possible to speed up to 100 000×, but without physical calculation. By this means it is possible to stop any rotation. The following speed factors are available: 1× (default), 5×, 10×, 50×, 100×, 1 000×, 10 000× and 100 000×
Time warp up to 100 000× is not always available: it is not possible to use non physical time warp within an atmosphere, and for higher factors the craft needs a greater distance to the orbited body. Every celestial body has its own reference frame which defines the altitude at which maximum time warp is available. Kerbin's reference frames are:
