Nice job Ivanovich. I like your lander it reminds me of the direct assent moon lander first proposed by von Braun for NASA. I suspect that your Kerbalites inside would have the same problem of getting out and making it down to the surface.

The Shotball boosters that come with the carbon struts mod pack are money! I would like to see what the members of this forum can do with it.

Can I be a taikonaut, a ?rhajós (hungarian space voyager), or a kosmonavt. I for sure don\'t want to be a Space Flight Participant!

well in that case try the shotball boosters, they are almost too powerful. If that is even possible in KSP

Thanks Red.

More pics, and ship file. The experiment package has legs which let me deploy it off the top of my lander. Oh and I am cheating by using solar collectors to recharge my tanks and the Shotball LRB I have been debating whether or not to show this off cause of all the negative response i am fearing receiving.

I am a Sinner I mix different mods! However, I agree with the assessment of Silisko. We community members and users of mods should keep the feelings of the designers in mind. However, I admit that i enjoy designing with the largest available palate of parts and frequently do. I enjoy the variety and new ideas which come with each subsequent mod. In a personal message to Silisko: From Post titled: 'A Mixed bag of big rockets' posted by RedRockets-- A personal appeal to NovaSilisko--- I would like to say that I am in awe of your talents at constructing original parts out of whole cloth. It is a talent which i do not control but look to with an envious eye. (It is a mark of admiration to your forward thinking design that I have found your 2m faring to be so useful it has become my go to payload concealment device.) Thank you for your efforts and I hope future parts kits will be as exceptional as the current mod. Thank you for putting your skills toward an effort which brings out the creative nature of so many people of the same mind for, and connection to, space and science. However your creation when distributed to a community which values the 'best,' 'most efficient,' 'interesting,' 'solid,' or, ' favorite' of the parts that are available it is important to realize that the creative members of the community, who may be disregarding your wishes as the creator, are flattering you and honoring your skill by using your parts. If you would please take a larger perspective...look at the ends of the construction process and take pride and satisfaction in the means you have given us designers/users (which can only be yours as the creator) when each craft which contains your parts is successful and makes the members of this community rejoice at their and your shared success. I hope this post reaches your heart and changes your mind and outlook or at the very least contributes to continuing the dialogue towards a positive conclusion. RRs

Are using the 'Shotball' Liquid Boosters considered cheating?

That is a great idea! Have you ever thought of using the RC guidance unit instead of a capsule?

Are stations dead now that the Mun has, or will be, arriving shortly?

The island/peninsula/large protuberant area to the North, North-West, of Kerbafrica.

Could you please post some screen-shots? I would love to see it in action.

Where are the pics from the surface of the moon coming from?!!!!!!!??????!!!!!?????

More pics same ICBM Pic 1: Firing the Explosive Bolt/Flare Combo Pic 3: Area Spread of the Penetration Aid Flares RRs

Adapted the previous design from feanor and added the flares to the explosive bolts... What does everyone think? RRs

Will they recharge your ion engine tanks? Are there other electro-thrusters or motors out there?

Designers get on it... (BTW anyone teach a crash course in part design?) Or a Deployable solar panel. That fires like a de-coupler and springs out to its final length or shape. Why solar panels that don\'t recharge your tanks any way?

I like bigger rockets with more stages I think the complexity of the design and staging is a big part of the challenge and accomplishment of KSP. Does this big rocket have a larger margin for pilot error and can still limp its way to LKO?

What a video! That is a planetary voyager craft candidate you should start a new thread

Thanks for all the answers to my questions! This community is so helpful in getting people up to speed. (no pun intended)

Its like a gear-head\'s attempt to hit light speed.
