Kerbals are the native denizens of the planet Kerbin. Kerbals appear to be bipedal. Mature kerbals stand roughly 0.75 meters in height.
Kerbals have a massive head with respect to their bodies, being nearly 50% of an adult kerbal's body mass.
Biology
Kerbal from Kerbalizer
- Although kerbals appear mostly hairless, they have notable hair growth occurring chiefly on the top of the head.
- Kerbal skin hues appear to range from light green to pale green.
- Kerbals are capable of spending years in space without showing any signs of muscle atrophy or other ill effects.
- Kerbals can survive for years with minimal food and oxygen supply. One theory is that they are able to enter a state of hibernation to endure long space travels.
- Kerbals are prone to dying from shock when exposed to unexpected technological innovations. Anecdotal evidence for this can be found in the descriptions of the Rockomax Hubman Multi-Point Connector and the RoveMax Model 3.
Language
- Kerbals can speak, as of some recent trailers. Currently they do not speak in-game.
- In trailers they speak reverse spanish
Material culture and technology
- Limited observation makes this difficult to determine. Kerbal technology and architecture appears to share many similarities with the modernized nations of Earth during the 1970-2000's.
- Due to the humorous descriptions of parts in-game, it can be assumed Kerbals are, to some extent, less intelligent than Human Beings.
