  1. That's STS-26R, not STS-26. STS-26, more commonly referred to as STS-51-F, was a Spacelab mission. After NASA transitioned to the STS-[FY][Launch Site]-[Yearly Mission Count] system externally, the internal count was continued. This resulted in discontinuities as STS-10, 12, 15, 16, 18, 21, 22, & 29 were cancelled. Even though there was no STS-29 originally flown, Post Challenger, STS-29 still received an R suffix, just like all of the missions up through STS-33R and -31R (31R flew after -33R, as did -32R).
  2. You can build Buran, just not an Energia - Yet. Someone who has a pinned thread this month has one on the docket.
  3. There is no functional difference between the IUSes used on Titan 34D, Titan IV (either version), and the Space Shuttle.
  4. Kanaloa /AARDV is that ATV like vehicle, and IUS is going to come from Pak's Cormorant Aeronology.
  5. And here is the NASA AMES study that was the source of the above images
  6. So stock mesh switching will include nodes being hidden/made available?
  7. The current Inon engine mount supports both single and double engine operations. The covers that used to exist on the double engine mounts for single engine ops are not there any more, and vice versa (I should log an issue on the github for this), but you can use it for both versions. Also, the B version does fit under the Inon decoupler.
  8. I haven't played with NF or SSPxR in a while, but I do say, I love the parts and IVAs.
  9. Please confirm that this is a typo and you mean 1.875m instead of 1.85m.
  10. I place an octo2 on a cubic strut between the two OMS engines, and I angle it to 15 degrees. I also have an action group set up to control from this point. The goal is to have it thrust through the CoM, and have the probe lined up with the CoT. This goes roughly where the drogue is on the Mk2 orbiter, so I place said 'chute on probe to help hide it.
