Every time I watch an Antares launch the only thing going through my head is "I really hope the AJ- 26's don't show their N1 heritage". Alas...

SpaceX asked for that much, Boeing also asked for that much. All that shows is how SpaceX is saying that they can do a better job (reusable and all) for less than Boeing. It may not seem like it, but that is sort of a slap in the face to Boeing, seeing that they need 1.6x the money to do the same job.

The first stage was coming back for revenge on the Castor B for leaving it behind. -

Unfortunately, yes I think it will.

If Planetary Science takes a hit then no. NASA has this obsession with Mars, even with a whole other solar system to explore. Dont get me wrong, I am all for a Mars mission, so long as Planetary Science gets an increase, or remains at about $1.5 billion. I however could see a manned mission exciting the public, and hence increasing the funding for all divisions of NASA.

Another Proton rocket failure - May 15, 2014

I thought that Angara was yet to have its maiden flight... My understanding is that it is to occur this June. -

Cosmos3110 replied to Woopert's topic in Science & Spaceflight
No, as far anyone can tell so far, it appears to be a faulty vernier rocket in the third stage, which caused the rocket to loose control. Maybe Russia could start sending their satellites into orbit with trampolines? -

I would agree with that and I wish that would happen, but i just dont think that Roscosmos has enough funding to move any faster with Angara. -

Cosmos3110 replied to Woopert's topic in Science & Spaceflight
The rocket itself is a pretty reliable rocket. Most failures are problems with the different attachable upper stages, like the Briz- M. Im no engineer, but with all the failures with the Proton recently I think that Roscosmos needs to take more time after this failure, and pound out as many problems as they can, but like I said, Im no engineer and there could be other factors involved that would make scrubbing all the launches for the next year pointless. -
So a Proton M crashed today after its launch from Baikonour. Thoughts? [News Stories] http://rt.com/news/159304-proton-rocket-crashed-kazakhstan/ http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2014/05/russian-proton-m-launches-with-ekspress-am4r/ http://www.cnn.com/2014/05/16/world/europe/russia-rocket-accident/

I have it installed as KSP-GameData-ISS. Inside the ISS folder are folders titled BobCatind, ISS_Community, KAS and TSAS. Hope this helps. -
