 “


In Kerbal Space Program entspricht dies allen Anomalien die im Spiel auf dem Boden von Himmelskörpern des Kerbol-Systems, des Haupmenüs, in Innenansichten, und verschiedenen anderen Bereichen von den Entwichlern versteckt wurden, aber nicht Bugs wie Terrain Fehler.

Himmelskörper

Moho

  • Obwohl das Mohole (ein großer, steiler, vertikaler "Tunnel" an Mohos Nordpol) zunächst ein Terrain Fehler war, wurde es oft als ein Easter Egg betrachtet, und tatsächlich später von den Entwicklern "canonisiert". Es bekam sein eigenes Biom (das "Northern Sinkhole") und einen KerbNet Anomalienmarker.
  • Ein Grüner Monolith (für jeden Spielstand zufällig platziert).

Eve

  • Der oben genannte Monolith.

Gilly

Kerbin

  • Der Inland Space Center.

  • Die abgestürzte fliegende Untertasse.

  • Die Toilette im zerstörten Astronauten-Komplex.

  • Das Smileygesicht am Meeresboden ist in der linken Hälfte, knapp südlich des Äquators auf dieser Karte schwer erkennbar.

  • Das Smileygesicht mit verbessertem Kontrast.

Mun

  • Ein Monolith (oder Munolith) auf dem Mun.

Minmus

  • Der einzige Minmus Monolith.

Duna

  • Dunas Kerbal-Gesichts-Stein

  • Dunas SSTV Hügel in v1.12

Ike

  • Der Magische Felsen - Der Magische Felsen umlief Ike ursprünglich auf einer Höhe von 15km ohne Exzentrizität und einer Bahnneigung von 80°. Die Kollisionsbox des Magischen Felsens entsprach nicht seiner sichtbaren Oberfläche, was dazu führen konnte, dass Raumschiffe scheinbar spontan explodierten, manchmal Meter von der der Oberfläche entfernt. Er hatte des weiteren grün glimmernde Venen, als ob er Radioaktiv wäre, und es gab einen Monolithen auf seiner Oberfläche. Der Felsen hatte keine Schwerkraft, ist nicht in der Kartenansicht aufgetaucht und konnte nicht angezielt werden, genau wie jedes andere Easter Egg, nur in der Umlaufbahn. In 1.12 wurde der Magische Felsen wieder in das Spiel gebracht, dieses mal als Easter Egg auf Ikes Oberfläche. (11° 23′ 0″ S 27° 19′ 0″ O)
  • Ein Grüner Monolith (für jeden Spielstand zufällig platziert).

  • Der Magische Felsen in v1.12

Dres

  • Der Gürtel von der Tracking-Station aus gesehen in v1.12

Jool

  • Obwohl Jools "Oberfläche" unerreichbar ist (weil er ein Gasriese ist und Raumschiffe und -sonden durch den immensen Druck zerstört), gibt es immer noch XXX für eine Landung auf Jool.

Laythe

  • Laythes Walskelett und Petunien

Vall

  • Das Vallhenge

Tylo

  • Eine Höhlenartige formation kann bei 40° 11′ 58″ N 174° 0′ 5″ O gefunden werden. Zwischen 0.23 und 1.1.2 wurde die Höhle versehentlich hunderte von Metern under dem Boden platziert, aber nach 1.1.3 wurde dies behoben, und sie ist wieder auf der Oberfläche.
  • Zwar mittlerweile entfernt, gab es einst einen Krater mit einem schwach erkennbaren Bild von Carl Sagans Gesicht, welches das Terrain eingefärbt hat.
  • Ein Grüner Monolith (für jeden Spielstand zufällig platziert).

Bop

  • The dead Kraken.

Pol

Eeloo

Asteroids

  • In rare cases, asteroids can be discovered with a texture featuring glowing cracks in a variety of colors, very similar to the original Magic Boulder, which orbited Ike.

  • A "magic" asteroid with glowing fissures.

Easter Egg Narrative

In a forum post from late 2013,[1] Squad member Jeff C.(NovaSilisko) described an idea he had for connecting many easter eggs into a story concerning a civilization which predated the Kerbals. Experiments with interstellar travel resulted in the homeworld of this "precursor civilization" being flung out into an extremely distant orbit. Before they froze to death, they launched monoliths and other messages onto many planets and moons in hopes of seeding intelligent life. Instead, they created Kerbals, not-so-intelligent life.

The planet would not show up in any map and would be too distant to be observed with a telescope, making locating it by chance nearly impossible. However, players would be able to find transmitters beaming out SSTV signals on various bodies, each one of which would provide part of the orbital parameters necessary to locate it. The planet would be a bit smaller than Kerbin, covered in ruined cities and frozen oceans, and perpetually in twilight due to being so far from Kerbol.

The only element of this narrative which made it into the game is the SSTV transmitter on Duna, which transmits an image originally intended to depict 4 members of the precursor civilization standing on their homeworld, with the logo of their government. Had the narrative story been completed, it would also have contained part of the orbital parameters. Because the story was never implemented into the game, this explanation for the SSTV signal's imagery is arguably non-canon.[2]

Miscellaneous

Kerbals

  • The color of the Kerbals' skin is close to is #BADA55 (   ) in hexadecimal but does not match it exactly. The hexadecimal RGB value spells like “badass” in leetspeak. Some say #84D455 (   ) is the color of a Kerbal which is even further away than #BADA55. This connection is rumored, because Kerbals can have a BadS flag, which is usually interpreted as badass, and - when creating custom Kerbals - there are checkboxes for "Veteran" and "Badass".

  • An average of the skin color in Kerbal arm textures compared to the rumored colors

IVA

  • Some of the cockpits have post-it notes and other humorous writings inside them. The writing is somewhat blurry on normal settings and hard to read, but still legible. For transcripts of the notes, see the respective part pages.
  • When double-clicked on the screen which says "docking mode" in the mk1 cockpit, the IVA view changes to show upwards through the window on the top-back of the cockpit with a flight console. This suggests Kerbals can leave (or rotate?) their seats to make it easier to dock. It should be designed to be used with Inline Clamp-O-Tron.

Parts

  • On the Z-100 and Z-400 Rechargable Battery, the logo claims the batteries are Batt Man Batteries. This is a reference to Batman.
  • On the Communotron 88-88 is the hexadecimal number 0x62656570. When 0x62656570 is converted to ASCII it spells "beep".
  • Also on the Communotron 88-88, is the serial number 04101957, which is the launch date of Sputnik 1, 4 October 1957.
  • When the Mystery Goo™ Containment Unit is opened, revealing the holes, if one looks very closely in them, a faint smiley face can be seen. There is also "Containment Vessel" sign inside of it
  • When the SC-9001 Science Jr. is open, a message can be seen printed on the rear of the bay reading "Danger! Science Stuff" and Biohazard sign.
  • Also, the name of the part is a reference to HAL 9000 from 2001: A Space Odyssey and the Over 9000 meme.
  • Two COSPAR designations and names of both the International Space Station and Mir (in Cyrillic script) are printed on the Mobile Processing Lab MPL-LG-2 hull.
  • The FL-T200 Fuel Tank has a very faint drawing on it which can just about be observed when fully zoomed in. The drawing becomes more visible during re-entry and appears to depict a failed re-entry procedure which has then been crossed out.
  • The Mk3 to Mk2 Adapter has the word "Kurvy" written on it, most likely a reference to its shape.
  • The EAS-4 Strut Connector has a cost of 42 an obvious reference to The Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy's number of answers to the ultimate question.
  • The Telus Mobility Enhancer is similar to the ladder on the A-10 "Warthog" Close Ground Support Plane.
  • The LY series landing gear is a dual reference to Akron, Ohio based "Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company" and Buzz Lightyear from the Toy Story Franchise. On the tires,"Lightyear" is written.
  • The Kerbodyne Launch escape system has the designation A-004, a reference to A-004, the final test of the Apollo launch escape system
  • The Probodobodyne HECS says in the product description: "Despite concerns that one day, autonomous spacecraft cores could become self-aware and turn against their creators, or even become very stubborn against opening pod bay doors, Probodobodyne insists that these unmanned AI-driven devices are the way of the future." This is a reference to 2001: A Space Odyssey, in which the self-aware computer system HAL-9000 becomes very rebellious and eventually refuses to open the pod bay doors for the human astronaut Dave Bowman.

  • A comparison between the ladder in-game and the ladder on the A-10.

  • The PB-NUK radioscope thermoelectric generator description says ‘not to be used a heating during emergency rover exursions’

This is a reference to The Martian, a book and movie where the main character, Mark Watney, uses a similar generator as a heat source when he drives across the surface of Mars.

Loading Screen

  • While not that much of an Easter Egg instead of a reference, the loading screen makes a reference to The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, stating "Answering Ultimate Question" one of the well known phrases from the book.
  • As of 1.2, there are many more 'witty loading hints'.
  • One of the loading hints is "Falling With Style...", which may be a reference to Toy Story when Woody says, "That's not flying, that's falling with style!"
  • One of the loading hints is "Liking Ike", a reference to Dwight D Eisenhower's presidential campaign.

Main Menu

  • One of the two main menu images is that of a Kerbal standing on the Mun's surface, with Kerbin in the background. There is a 1 in 40 chance that a sand castle made of Mun dust can be seen near his feet.

  • The Mun dust castle.

Other

  • On the website "Kerbal Maps" - which shows maps of all the planetary bodies in the game - the URL contains the word "finitemonkeys", this being a reference to "The Infinite Monkey Theorum".

Scenarios

  • During the Space Station One scenario, by zooming out far enough to show the planetary map, a ship by the name of 'Kerbal XX' can be seen orbiting around Duna in a near-equatorial orbit (as of 0.23)

  • Kerbal XX from the Station 1 scenario.

Patcher

  • If you look into the patcher log, before updating, the log says "HOLD ON TO YOUR BUTTS!"
