Discoverables

Discoverables are unique points of interest scattered across the Kerbolar system. They are located on the surfaces of celestial bodies and have their own individual designs and descriptions. Some Discoverables are introduced to the player through missions while most are left to be discovered independently.

Overview

Discoverables can be sorted into three groups: geographical features, monuments, and specials. Monuments are related to Primary Missions and progression of KSP 2's overall story. Geographical features are generally unique stone formations. Special Discoverables are particularly outstanding landmarks that tend to be Easter eggs. Discoverables each have their own individual "biome" and Science multipliers. Every terrestrial body has at least 2 discoverables.

Geographical features

Geographical feature are the most common type of Discoverable. Often times large rocks with outstanding shapes and designs. Their apparent material typically blends into the composition of the body they're found on. These features are based on real-world analogs or commonly theorized potential formations.

Monuments

Monuments are very distinct Discoverables which tie into the narrative of the Primary Missions. Despite each being unique, they are all only referred to as "Monument" in-game. Thus they are often distinguished by the body they inhabit, such as Mun Monument or Tylo Monument.

Specials

Special Discoverables are unnatural, non-Monument entities. The Mun-Or-Bust Site, for instance, is an Easter egg referencing a rare menu screen from KSP 1. These Discoverables are not "naturally occurring" nor are they related to the missions narrative.

Science

Every Discoverable features its own science region. Therefore each one has unique Science rewards and flavor text for experiments.

Unused Discoverables

Some unused Discoverables have been found in the game files. A large monument intended to be found on Char depicts a creature with long curling horns, a squid mouth, and outstretched arms. In-between the hands there is a ramp. The creature seems to have large wings extend out and around the arms and ramp in a circle with an opening at the front. Along its back is a plated shell with sharp spikes protruding out in a row down the center. The creature is embedded in rocks all across the back of itself.
