You are right, he even seems to be behind the Space Age expansion:

> A lot of people are going to make comparisons between the Space Age expansion and the Space Exploration mod. I've worked on the game design for both: On Space Age I made the first space + planets prototype builds and plus I've been involved in most of the gameplay discussions since. On Space Exploration, well it's my mod, I made it.

Hoping that some of the useful features from Space Age make their way back to space exploration too.
