Kartemis Program


JakGamingKSP

Recommended Posts

During the 2010s/2020s, Interest in space grew due to SpaceK's Ghidorah 9 Rocket and its Reusability, with new Public Pressure. KASA Announces a New Crewed Mun/Minmus Landing Program: Kartemis Program, Using the KLS Rocket and Commercial Providers, It finally looks like KASA will head back to the Mun and Minmus, Especially with Acapello 14 being the Only Crewed Minmus Mission. It also Came along with a Promise to Land People on Duna before 2033.

This Save will Involve Unmanned Interplanetary Missions, Crewed Mun and Minmus Missions and a Crewed Duna Mission at the End, The Main Inspiration was @ShuttleHugger's
STS Save, Only Mods is Tundra Exploration and Conformal Decals for Parts (I use 1.9.1). 

Missions so Far Planned are

CAPSTONE - March 2021

Artemis 1 - 24th November  2021 - 26th December 2021

Ghidorah Heavy: KLHM (Kerbal Living and Habitation Module) (6th of April 2023)

Artemis 2 - 16th August 2023 - 26th August 2023

Vulkan-Kentaur: EPM (Electrical Propulsion module) -  18th of November 2023

Aliyana 6: MLRS (Munar Logistics and Refueling Section) - June 26th 2024

Artemis 3 - 21st October 2024 - 31st November 2024

Artemis 4 - 25th April 2025 - 3rd June 2025

(Planning for More)

CAPSTONE

Mission Name: CAPSTONE

Mission Purpose: To Test the Munar Gateway Orbit

The Initial Orbit was an 85X85 Until TMI done by the Second Stage, The Maneuver placed CAPSTONE into a 14km Polar Trajectory.

This Placed the CAPSTONE Payload into a 14X16 Polar Orbit, Later above the North Pole, The Kickstage Engine Fired Placing Capstone in a 44x1445 Orbit.

Artemis 1 - 2021

Mission Purpose - Verify the KLS and Orion for Munar Travel

Mission Duration - 32d, 5h, 4m and 42s

Liftoff Date - 24/11/21 (DD/MM/YY)

Landing Date - 26/12/21

Details -

On the 24th of November 2021, The KLS Block I Rocketed to Life on LC 39b Lifting The Uncrewed Orion Capsule "Excellence" to the Mun

The KLS Block I Consists of the Core Stage, 2 SRBS and the IKPS (Interim Kryogenic Propulsion Stage), The Block I will be Launching A1 - 3.

The Next Version of the KLS, Block IB is due to Launch in 2025 Launching a Duna Probe for its Test Flight, The Probe is the Duna Polar Lander2

The IKPS is derived from the DCSS used to Launch the Delta IV Heavy which Launched EFT-1, Giving Artemis 1 the Informal Designation of EFT-2 (Exploration Flight Test-2). The Kartemis/Artemis Missions were Previously known as EM (Exploration Mission.) Luckily with new Funding the EM's became Artemis.

The Orion Capsule for this mission is "Excellence." Excellence is due to Fly A3 and A7 also, The Next Orion "Intrepid" is due for A2, A5, A10 and Possible Crewed Duna Missions. Orion Capsules have a 15 Year Lifespan if kept in Condition.

MOI was done with the KJ-10 Engine, The Orion is Expected to Handle MOI and KR (Kerbin Return) on the KJ-10.

31 Days Later the Orion Capsule Lit the KJ-10 Engine to Kerbin to Return, Kerbin Periapsis was set as 18km to Avoid Burning Up and Skipping off the Atmosphere.

After Service Module Sep the Capsule Enters the Atmosphere at 3km/s, During this phase I realize that I Pressed the Wrong Action Group and Cut the Drogues.....

Parachute Opening was Amazing and Performed well even without Drogues, Unfortunately Drogues are needed for Crewed Missions because the Orion Touched down at 6.8m/s

Orion Touchdown was Celebrated throughout NASA as the New Journey to the Mun Began.

Next Mission is the KLHM Launching on the Ghidorah Heavy (Munar)

The Ghidorah Heavy Is being Utilized for Gigan XL Missions and Launching the MCLP for Northrop Krumman (Munar Crewed Logistics Platform) for Artemis Missions

The Fuel Tank on the Top was used for MOI Fuel, The KLHM had Crew Capacity for 6 but was currently Unmanned.

Soon the EPM will dock to Supply More Power n Stuff.
