So two different surface samples can be collected from any floating craft. However, there is one detail to note: a Kerbal swimming in the water is splashed, but a Kerbal standing on top of a splashed craft is landed. The results vary by biome and situation (landed or splashed) just as with craft. Surface Samples can be taken by kerbonauts when performing an EVA on the ground (or from on top of a landed or splashed craft) or in water of a celestial body. The following Activities are performed by Kerbals during an EVA or from within a crewed command module. Surface: Splashed currently can only be accomplished on Kerbin, Eve, and Laythe. The top row of the chart names each Activity the left hand column shows the six possible Situations.Įach intersection shows whether the Activity is possible for a given Situation and, if so, whether it differs by Biome or gives one Global result for the entire celestial body.Īctivities and situations requiring an atmosphere are italicized and colored. Possible combinations of Activity, Situation, and Biome Activities performed within one sphere of influence(SOI) have no effect on the Science Points that can be earned doing science activities within the SOI of any other celestial body. This is an overview of all science activities which can be performed and how results differ by biome and situation. Each planet with solid surface and each moon has biomes, because of this several biomes have to be visited with landers or rovers for total research of the given celestial body.
Each additional biome grants a separate set of opportunities to do Science Activities, provided the Activity is biome-dependent in the given Situation. The situation will only change to "Flying High" or "Flying Low" if/when the aerodynamic forces cause an orbit to be captured during the encounter.īiomes are areas of a body's surface specially mapped in KSP game data. If soaring through an upper or lower atmosphere on a trajectory to an escape from the planet or moon's sphere of influence, the situation is assigned as "In Space Low" regardless of the presence of the atmosphere.
As of KSP version 1.0.2, the PresMat Barometer can be used without an atmosphere. In Space High: high above the surface and any atmosphere but still in its SOIĪn atmosphere is required for the situations " Flying Low" and " Flying High" and for usage of the Atmospheric Fluid Spectro-Variometer.In Space Low: above the surface at any height and not in an atmosphere.Flying High: in the upper atmosphere, if and only if an atmosphere is present.Flying Low: above the surface at any height, if and only if an atmosphere is present.SrfSplashed: in a liquid body on the surface (such as oceans).SrfLanded: in contact with the terrestrial surface.There are six possible situations, some of which may be irrelevant to a given science activity or unavailable on a given celestial body. Situations reflect the flight status of the craft or kerbonaut relative to a celestial body. 3.3.2 Recovering the maximum value of an experiment.3.1 Possible combinations of Activity, Situation, and Biome.In addition to the facts collected on this page, you can follow this beginner-friendly Science tutorial. Science and all related instruments and buildings are made inoperative while in Sandbox mode due to its triviality-all parts are available from the start of a Sandbox game. EVA report flying over Kerbin's shores) can be stored per command pod. Additionally, science experiments can be stored in and retrieved from any part that Kerbals can ride in, although only one copy of an experiment for any specific situation (e.g. Experiments can be removed from the parts they were performed in and are stored with a Kerbal on EVA. While transmission is generally not for 100% value, experiments may be repeated and retransmitted until 100% of the science value is received. Science must either be recovered or transmitted in order to be used on Kerbin to unlock additional technologies. Science may also be obtained upon successful completion of certain contracts, or gained through the implementation of administrative strategies. Science is a gameplay feature used to unlock parts in the technology tree when playing in the Career or Science modes by spending science points, which are mainly obtained by performing various scientific activities in different situations and biomes.
