Other Worlds is a story/planet pack combo that adds a new star system to Kerbal Space Program full of custom-made planets, as well as a custom-made story, first in KSP history.
You can watch the trailer here
To play with this mod, you require to also install Kopernicus
The mod also requires, but is already bunbled with, VertexMitchellNetravaliHeightMap and CTTP.
As optional mods, you can use Enviromental Visual Enhancments, Scatterer and Parallax for a more visually striking collection of planets.
You can also install Contract Configurator for a small collection of custom contracts.
This mod also includes some laser sail parts that require custom code to work. You can find that one here.
