Notes:

There were an insane amount of changes over the 12 years to fit into a 20 minute video – same goes for number of mods. I highlighted the changes I felt were most important, but many were left out. If you want to read, check out the full version history! https://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Version_history

When referring to version dates, I use the date of the last minor patch for the major version. Sometimes this can be months after its initial release, but this way any changes during the minor versions are accounted for. Two exceptions are made, the release date of KSP 1.0, and 1.12, due to being very important dates.
