Kerbin/pl

Kerbin jest to główna planeta Kerbali, posiada Centrum Kosmiczne. Jest odpowiednikiem Ziemi. Posiada 2 księżyceMun i Minmus.

Kerbin jest trzecią planetą orbitującą gwiazdę Kerbol. Jest to trzecia największa planeta (po Jool orazEve) i czwartym co do wielkości ciałem niebieskim ( Tylo księżyc Jool'a jest niewiele większy ).

Osiągnięcie stabilnej orbity nad Kerbinem jest jednym z pierwszych wielkich osiągnięć gracza. Osiągnięcie takiej orbity z trajektorią wznoszenia optymalną z punktu widzenia zużycia paliwa wymaga zmiany prędkości delta-V od4.45 do 4.7 km/s. Dla wielu misji międzyplanetarnych, jest to ponad połowa wymaganej zmiany prędkości delta-V. (podobnie jak dla Ziemskich misji kosmicznych, co jeden z obserwatorów napisał "Jeżeli możesz dotrzeć swoim statkiem na orbitę, jesteś już w połowie drogi w dowolne miejsce.")

Topografia

Topographical image of Kerbin from 0.17.1 Kerbin has a roughly equal distribution of surface liquid water and solid land, with polar icecaps and scattered deserts. There are mountains exceeding 3 km in height, with the tallest peak being at least 3750 m in altitude. Kerbin shows signs of having been impacted by an asteroid or comet. That is visible in the large crater in the western hemisphere. Prominent is the central peak, which is caused by the compression followed by the rebound of material in the center of the crater. Note: is as of v0.18 Note: There has been a change in the appearance of Kerbin in version 0.18, and that has contributed to the topography. All information within this article and note is valid as of version 0.17.1, Save for the thumbnail above, which is from 0.18.

Atmosphere

Kerbin's atmosphere contains oxygen and extends to roughly 69,078 meters. Its atmosphere becomes exponentially less dense as altitude increases (with a scale height of 5 km). In general, the atmospheric pressure on Kerbin, at an altitude expressed in meters, is:

$p_{k}=e^{-altitude/5000}$

Orbits

Geosynchronous orbit is achieved at an altitude of 0,00 m (1008.9 m/s). A semi-synchronous orbit with an orbital period of 1/2 of Kerbal (3 hours or 10800 seconds) is achieved at an altitude of 0,00 m with an orbital velocity of 0,00 m/s.

Interplanetary Travel

From the lowest stable orbit around Kerbin (70 km), the amount of delta-V needed to reach the orbits of other celestials is as follows:

Body	Delta-V
Mun	~860 m/s
Minmus	~930 m/s
Eve	~1033 m/s
Duna	~1060 m/s
Moho	~1676 m/s
Jool	~1915 m/s

Changes

0.18

• Terrain overhaul: Entire planet redo. Deserts, darker and greener grass, islands, darker ocean/water, snow capped mountains. Looks more realistic.
• Second KSC removed due to overhaul, 3 new KSCs added.
• Several Easter Eggs added.
• Airport added to island off of KSC coastline. (Not a launching point)

0.17

• Improved atmosphere visuals.

0.15

• Minmus added.

0.14.2

• Much more varied and taller terrain added. Prior to this, some mountain ranges exceeded 600 m in height, but the tallest point was at an altitude of approximately 900 m.

0.12

• Mun added.

0.11

• Terrain overhaul, oceans became wet.

0.10.1

• Atmosphere extended from ~34,500 m to ~69,000 m.
