  5. Open Kerbal Space Program and assemble a ship

  6. Put your assembled ship on the launch pad

  7. In your browser, go to http://localhost:8080

  8. Click around the Kerbal Spacecraft node to get familiar with the types of telemetry data available

  9. Say out-loud "3... 2... 1... lift off!" while launching your ship

  10. Watch telemetry data populate for your ship, while noticing the understandable looks of jealousy from family and friends

System Requirements

This package has been tested with:

  • Telemachus 1.5
  • KSP v1.1.3.1289
  • Mac OS X 10.11.6.

Your mileage may vary.

Disclaimer

I am not responsible for the death of any Kerbalians while attempting to get this to work. Use at your own risk.

Contributing

I wrote this plugin as an example for those that would like to add new telemetry sources to Open MCT in a rare moment of free-time. I will update it as often as time allows, but would greatly appreciate contributions via pull-requests from fellow enthusiasts.

For consistency, please follow the contribution guidelines of Open MCT when contributing to this repo.

Thanks

A HUGE thank you to the folks at NASA Ames Research Center for open-sourcing their mission control software. This is an incredible time to be alive. I nearly passed out with joy (also I had been drinking) when I had real mission control software running on my personal laptop. That's crazy!

A further HUGE thank you goes out to the makers of Kerbal Space Program and the Telemachus plugin. Great work!
