This is a webcomic about Kerbal Space Program, a popular spaceflight game where you send little green creatures across a fictional solar system.
I will update this page once every 1-3 days every week or so with a new collection of comic strips. Each strip is unrelated from any other so don’t expect a continuous storyline longer than a page, aside from often seeing a “BOOM!!” in there somewhere 🙂 Note: Some strips might need some background knowledge of KSP or orbital mechanics beforehand to get the most enjoyment.
Feb 17 2026. KSP Lore Pt. 2. A take on the Kerbal’s physiology and the reason behind their drive to explore space.
My theory states that the Kerbal Space Center isn’t a collection of buildings at all — it is actually a Kerbal that has anchored itself into the ground and grown into a large sprawling complex, and the little green guys we see in-game are actually the juveniles of the same species. The Astronaut Complex is the KSC’s reproductive organ which is how it creates Kerbals. This explains why the “grass” in the KSC is the color of a Kerbal’s skin and how it is able to create and launch crafts near-instantly: a collection of buildings headed by individual Kerbals would take days or weeks to construct a plane and potentially years to construct a rocket, but since the KSC is actually one organism it is able to ingest external resources from Kerbin’s environment and convert them directly into rocket/plane parts in a matter of seconds.
Kerbin isn’t actually the Kerbals’ home planet — they originated as a parasitic species that spread across multiple star systems in the Kerbal galaxy and are only now growing on the planet Kerbin. Your mission, playing as the KSC itself, is to construct ships and put Kerbals in them so that one day the Kerbals can anchor themselves to planets and become a network of KSCs all around the Kerbolar System. This is also why a Kerbal’s primary method of gaining XP is by planting a flag on another planet/moon: anchoring a flag in the ground is the first step in a Kerbal turning into a KSC, and also why you see so many interstellar/planet pack mods: more places for Kerbalkind to plant itself.
Feb 11 2026. Brace yourself for the unceasing wall of low-effort bullet points that is today’s comic.
Feb 7 2026. The craft featured in the 1st strip are the stock Aeris 4A, Cupcake’s Laythe SSTO, Stratzenblitz75’s 1.56 ton Eve SSTO and Bradley Whistance’s 564 kg SSTO respectively.
The craft at the end of the third strip is imll1’s HyperSpeed: Faster Than Before which uses a glitch with docking ports to achieve insane speeds.
Edit: I just realized I have been drawing comics for a month now!
Feb 2 2026. “The Big Four’s Daily Routine”. Note that in the second strip I accidentally drew Valentina Kerman with a cylindrical male head, whoops 😛
Jan 31 2026. “The Katastrophe Arkhives”. Yes, I built the submarine in the last strip, and yes, it did actually do that.
Jan 27 2026. “The Kraken Attack Kollection”. Note: the second strip is based on the “Uncanny Mr. Incredible” meme.
Jan 24 2026. A brief take on KSP lore:
Billions of years ago, the Kerbolar System was much larger, and had a different name: the Solar System. It was inhabited by alien creatures known as humans. The humans had colonized most of the system and had developed futuristic technology like gravity manipulation and antimatter drives. However, some human scientists did a little too much experimenting with the fabric of spacetime which caused everything within a 1-lightyear radius of the Sun to begin collapsing in on itself, including the planets and moons the humans lived on, causing much alarm and fear as the humans thought that the planets and moons would become black holes.
The humans were a very advanced species, but for a while even they could not figure out how to transport quadrillions of people out of the 1 lightyear radius of the collapsing field. Finally, they came up with a solution: put a giant engine on the outer gas giants and use the material of the gas giants as fuel, like a planet-size SRB, only this one was throttleable. The technology used by this engine is beyond our current understanding of physics so I will not try to describe it.
The humans used gravity manipulation to make large floating platforms in the gas giants’ upper atmospheres, for the people of the inner planets to move to and live on, and the people living on the moons of the gas giants did not have to move. The huge engines installed on the gas giants accelerated them to near-lightspeed towards the nearest star system, for humans to eventually settle it as a new home.
For some unknown reason, the collapse stopped when the planets were about 1/11th their original size, resulting in most of them being over 11 times denser than they were before, and thus the Kerbolar System was born. The empty towns and cities left behind by humankind experienced tremendous g forces when the collapse stopped, and so they were crushed into rubble, leaving only the extremely strong Monoliths standing. Once the collapse stabilized the star Kerbol shed some of its extra mass into a nebula around the Kerbolar System and became a red dwarf. This nebula is what we see at night from Kerbin and what we see in space, not the Milky Way.
A lot of the planets and dwarf planets’ orbits were perturbed by the passage of the giant planet-ships as they flew past the inner solar system to pick up people living on the inner planets, and some of the smaller dwarf planets and moons of Jupiter disappeared entirely as they collapsed into microscopic black holes which decayed over time due to Hawking radiation. When these black holes decayed completely they released a massive burst of radiation which sterilized everything in the Kerbolar System, including all the life that existed on some of the planets and moons. This made the system a blank slate for life to evolve on the planet Kerbin, eventually giving rise to the Kerbals.
Even the Kraken has a role in this: it is actually a highly specialized machine built by humans that lives on a floating platform in the gas giant Jool. When it detects something that could create a gravitational anomaly and cause the Kerbolar System to collapse again, it attempts to destroy the craft or experiment by manipulating the fabric of spacetime, subjecting it to tremendous g forces and tidal forces causing it to rip apart, saving the Kerbolar System from total destruction. This is what is known as a Kraken attack and it can happen when clipping parts into each other, for example, or diving into the core of a planet. Stratzenblitz made a video about it but I can’t find it at the moment, although I did find the sequel below.
The Kraken also triggers its gravitational manipulation ability when a Kerbal attempts to dive into Jool, destroying them and their craft when it attempts to go more than 250 meters below Jool’s sea level altitude. However, skilled Kerbals can use tactics (aerodynamic hacks and physics state exploits) to evade the Kraken’s detection, allowing them to dive into the core of Jool, demonstrated here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9g8wg3clrg
Jan 20 2026. Featuring the “Stereotypical Kool Kid Kerman”.
Jan 15 2026.
Jan 13 2026. In the third panel of the second strip, I should have written “Lt. Duckweed-level SSTO” instead of “Scott Manley-level SSTO” because the design is very closely based on Lt. Duckweed’s newest SSTA.
Jan 12 2026. The two strips on the bottom are based off of the work of KerbalX builder sumguy, who has made a lot of cool SSTOs. The two featured in these strips can be found here:
First strip: https://kerbalx.com/sumguy/mk0-blue-hummingbird
Second strip: https://kerbalx.com/sumguy/1-Up-SSTO
(Apparently WordPress cannot handle me uploading my high-quality page scans so you will just have to deal with these blurry ones… D:)
Jan 10 2026. (Sorry for the low quality, the paper was bending a little too much)
The “conspiracy theories” strip on the bottom was based on some posts off various forums.

Jan 8 2026. “Hilarious Lithobraking Fails“
Jan 7 2026. This had two pages of comic content and my first continuous storyline (the Eve Mission Trilogy which actually had 4 comic strips, not 3) as well as the first strips with color in them.
Alternate ending to the first strip of the below page:
“WE MUST DESTROY THE KRAKEN WITH BOOSTER”
“You’re summoning the Kraken with all those boosters.”
Jan 6 2026. These were the very first strips I drew for this webcomic.
