Kerbal Space Program 1.9 is another Minor Update to the game which includes a number of enhancements, Graphical updates, model changes and some really useful changes for Helicopter design.
However it also includes a valve that lets you dump fuel, and I thought I've try to figure out how to use this for good!
This will probably be fixed in 1.9.1

No Man's Sky has been the most requested game by my subscribers, unfortunately I was away when the game was released and the developers didn't distribute review copies so I had to wait until I got home to cover this much anticipated game.
My verdict after hours of play, this would be a decent Beta, but there are many things that need fixed, some are bugs, others are straight up bad design decisions.

Black holes are weird. In particular the orbits as you get close don't behave like Keplerian orbits in Newtonian physics, which leads to many misunderstandings about how close you could get to a black hole. Many sci--fi writers make the mistake of presuming that the point of no return is the Event Horizon, when in fact there are limits even further out.

On Monday NASA announced that it had confirmed the impact site of India's Vikram Lunar Lander after a 3 month search and a lot of help by Shan Subramanian, an engineer in Chennai who spent his personal time analyzing data from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter.
It was long known that the lander had crashed based on radio data from amateur astronomers, but unclear statements from the press had lead many to believe the lander was intact. NASA's new images show fragments spread over several square kilometers showing that there was never a chance of recovering the probe after the software glitch caused a navigation error.
