There are so many Addons you can find in CurseForge, SpacePort or in some forums.

New Kerbalists are totally lost in this diversity. But some mods are really excellent, they fills the missing features or adds some completely new way of playing. Here is a very short list. The selected Mods are here because

• They are acclaimed in forums.
• They adds important features to the game.
• They have been fully tested by the author that adds the link in this page.

Fell free to complete this list. Please Modders don't adds your own addon :), waits for a user to do it for you.

• RemoteTech (incompatible with 0.23.5) : Your probe won't react anymore when far from Kerbal.
  • You'll have to create a complete network of communication satellites to guide them in deep space.
  • Adds delay (because of light speed limitation) to the control of distant probes, making navigation really harder with distant planets
• Ferram Aerospace Research : adds a wide greater realism to the atmospheric fly. It is then really harder to make your ship fly correcly.
