This is a rough Estimation of important dates in the Kerbal Space Program Universe. Many of these dates & events are only rough estimates at what would be true, many based on real-world times & events, but it could be useful for campaigns & other things of the sort. Please note: you may think some of these kerbals live too long, but please note that the writer of this article believes that the kerbals are a humanoid form of plant, and their greenness indicates the presence of chlorophyll, so kerbals can live indefinitely. Also note that kerbals, rather than average plants, consume nothing but mountain Dew & sandwiches, eliminating the need for roots.
