That's alright. RL should come before this project.

It seems that our project has all the RL problems of NASA and the ESA rolled into one! Keep faith, it will happen!

How many people would we need for doing ground tests?

3-4

So, am I in - or not? Little bit of confusion here...

I'm sorry, I didn't catch your application. Can you repost it, please?

So what do you guys need help with?

Backups of every role are what we are after now.

Or if you could setup port forwarding, that would be great!

 

[Dman979]

Sure! What @ZooNamedGames was referring to was if you could set up port forwarding. You'll also need to install the RSS/RO suite of mods.

And which role would you want to be?

Pinging @Mad Rocket Scientist because scheduling.

Am I in too?

I believe so.

Everyone:

I've made a GitHub repository to house all of our kOS files:

Does anyone have a complete roster of who did what for the successful CubeSat launch?

[Choctofliatrio2.0]

Sorry I've been gone for a while, computer broke, plus I've been really busy. What's up?

Not much, we had a manned launch scheduled, but Mysterious Steve quit, so it was scrubbed. We're figuring out our next launch ATM.

[adsii1970]

Who is going in place of Mysterious Steve so I can change the graphic?

Also, the new veteran graphics are "officially" released now. All you have to do is to visit the thread linked below... or click here!

Can I get a copy of the Scorpius mission vehicle I need to look at it to figure out how/why/if it works?

to me it almost seems to be incomplete and likely to get stuck in op 3 but i need to check how the mission staging is set up to be sure. 

I also want to get a copy of every LV we have currently so I can write variations of the launch code EladDv wrote, and if their is any idea of what launcher we will need next (other than the 1 ton launcher that I am using to launch the docking probe) I want to know so I can start with that.

thank you for doing these,their awesome

[adsii1970]

@agent 902 Hey, not a problem. I've had them done now for about the last month but finally had the opportunity to post them today. Eventually I will also archive the Apollo Missions Recreation program images on the "reserved page" as well.

Eventually, I will even get around to posting the 45+ flag images posted for those who want a flag...

Huh, TIL.
It's not everyday in real life you see an astronaut straight up say "I quit!" before a big launch.

Meanwhile, Sequinox waits eagerly for his rocket to roar into the skies.
and a little nervously

do you have the project Scorpius rocket because i need it to figure out why EladDV's code work

I'm not sure if I understand what you mean.
Project Scorpius?

The manned rocket.

It's highly specialised, the staging events and flight path are built from trial and error of simulations, the abort sequences are also based on staging. But the base structure should be transferable to other rockets also guys don't be afraid to ping me, it's just that I don't have enough time to invest here(and some different perception about how this should run) but it dosnt mean I don't like this project, I'd still be happy to help from time to time

So wait, is it still my launch vehicle, just renamed?

I haven't really been following recently.

I get a bit of the staging I think I will try to get a better solution for launch so their is not any (or as much) trial and error but I am impressed with that UI you build, it is very nice. I tend to hate doing UI elements show your UI will be part of pretty much every thing thank you very much for your contributions.

Well the basuic equation was mathematicly guesstimated what was tested was the specific variables. I've  been able to shave 400 dV out of the launch with the new profile (the frac exponent was 1.0125)

Ok, I'm glad to hear that. It is a big time commitment, and that's why I've been quieter recently.

Nope, it's your LV. The only changes have been in some staging events, paint color, and fuel load to customize it for the mission. No changes in hardware at all.
The project name for the manned mission is Project Scorpius. Your LV was named Solaris. Following NASA's naming custom for manned missions, the launch becomes Scorpius-Solarius 01, or SS-01.
