biome(バイオーム)はKerbal Space Program内では、山やクレーターのような地形の種類に応じて設定された天体表面の地理的領域を指す。現実世界のバイオームが気候や植生、生物群から決定されているのとは対照的である。

実験活動の結果はバイオームの違いによって差が生じることが多く、CareerモードScienceモード技術ツリーを開放するためScienceポイントを稼ぐにはバイオームの差を利用することになる。0.25よりSandboxモードでもバイオームごとの実験結果メッセージが表示されるようになったが、Science Archivesを閲覧することも出来ないため収集することは出来ない。

バイオームはひと続きではなく飛び地も存在するが、ゲーム上は同一のバイオームとして扱われる。例えばKerbin北極の"IceCap"(氷冠)バイオームでEVAレポートを採取した場合、"IceCap"バイオームとして処理されるため南極へ行ってEVAレポートを採取しても「IceCap2度目のEVAレポート」となりScienceポイントは獲得できない。

0.25[outdated]現在、完全なバイオームマップが実装されているのはKerbinとその衛星のMünMinmusのみである。Joolの衛星Laytheと惑星Eveには水が存在しており"Laythe's oceans"や"Eve's oceans"と差が生じるが、これらは実験状況による差異でバイオームによるものではない。

Kerbin

Kerbin Biome Map

The planet Kerbin has 9 biomes, plus a large number of surface-only “location biomes” comprising Kerbal Space Center. Roughly 60% Kerbin's surface is Water biome. Grasslands and Highlands biomes cover most of the land area.

Among the celestial bodies with biomes, Kerbin is currently[outdated] the only one that also has bodies of water. Oceans, seas, and larger lakes belong to the Water biome; but most rivers and smaller bodies of water are the same biome as the ground around them. This way, it is possible to do science activities in the SrfSplashed situation for every biome. Meanwhile, small islands in Water biome areas, such as at the Old Airfield, sometimes are counted as SrfLanded, not splashdowns, within the Water biome. Shores, naturally, have both land and water.

Kerbin is the only celestial body with location biomes: the grounds of KSC and the many structures it is composed of. Each count as a biome only with experiments performed on the surface. KSC is within a Shores biome, so experiments while flying at any altitude over the KSC count as Shores. However, it is possible to get an "EVA Report while flying over" the area. The exact trigger is unknown but may relate to split-second timing while jumping on a parked vessel.

KSC location biome list

Mun

The Mun has in total 15 biomes, 7 of which are uniquely named major craters. Most of the surface area belongs to the Midlands biome followed by the Highlands. Canyon biomes extend off a few major craters.

Minmus

Minmus has in total 9 biomes. The most distinctive quality of Minmus's biomes is the variety of Flats, which in-game text describe as “lake beds”. They are almost perfectly flat and may represent salt flats. Roughly two-thirds of the surface area is irregular terrain transitioning between Highlands, Midlands, and Lowlands with Slopes in-between.
