  1. Yeah it counts. When I say NASA, ESA, etc, I mean that this isn't the place to put your Star Wars crafts.
  2. Thank you to everyone who has submitted crafts on the first few days! I'm so glad the thread is growing well
  3. Autopilots are allowed in the challenge now.
  4. To get things started, here's my replica of the International Space Station. It has all the currently announced modules on it, including the Bigelow Module. I would highly recommend using hyperedit to launch it, or launch each of the modules separately. http://imgur.com/yRYtr5N Picture of the station with a Skelly Crew of 2.
  5. This is where you can show off your stock crafts that are replicas of real Spacecraft! You may make crafts that were cancelled before they flew or are in development! What you need to include in your post is: 1. Name of craft 2. SPH or VAB? 3. What the craft does 4. Pictures (Use Imgur as it's easy to make albums on the forums) 5.

  6. OK, so here's the challenge. You need to make a manned spaceplane that: a. Launches like a rocket (No SSTO and no Runway Launches) b. Is able to deploy a Mobile Processing Lab into an orbit of 120 km c. Deorbits and lands on a runway (KSC or Island Runway) d. No crewmembers are lost during the mission If your ship does not meet all of these requirements, you cannot enter it!! Point Scoring: This challenge is based on the idea that MOAR STUFF = Better. These things are extra, also EVA-Capable, i.e. an EVA to deliver a small payload to an outside rack on station (1 pt) Interplanetary-Capable (3 pts) Deploy Cubesats into orbit (3 pts for every cubesat) Deploy more than one Mobile Processing Lab (10 pts for every Mobile Processing Lab) Dock to an orbiting station to deliver the module (3 pts) Dock to an Asteroid to deliver the module (10 pts) Launch in the same style as the real Space Shuttle as in SRBs, External Tank, etc (100 pts) Mods Not Allowed: Mods that introduce Space Shuttle parts (Aerospace Parts Mods are allowed) Hyperedit (May be used for launching the Orbital Station) Make sure you take screenshots or you will not go on the Leaderboard below! Have fun! Leaderboard: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Honorable Mentions:
  7. It was midnight, and we just entered our launch window... 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Liftoff of the SLS with Skylab II. We rose to 10km, separated the Boosters, and begin the gravity turn to get into our parking orbit at 100km. We hit 30km, and separated the SLS Core. Skylab II now was under its own power to get into orbit. We get into our parking orbit, and waited for about 30 mins to prepare for the burn to send us on our path towards the Mun. We fired the engine to send us towards the Mun, a cratered, desolate land, scattered with the engines and fuel tanks of countless failed attempts to land there. We reach our Munar Encounter, and fire the engine to insert us into our orbit. Little did we know that the autopilot had failed. Right after we finished the burn, Skylab II began to go into a spin, around and around. We watched the G-Meter rise, 3... 6... 9... 12... 15... BOOM. Solar panels, RCS tanks, Engines, Docking Ports flying everywhere. We tried to fire the engine on Skylab II to stop the spin, we already knew the mission would be lost. The engine sent us on a course to impact inside of a huge crater. We crashed, spraying pieces of the ship all over the landscape. The cause of the mission failure is presumed to be a misfiring of thrusters by the MechJeb autopilot. In other words, MechJeb is not always perfect.
  8. This is my Mobile Launch Platform. It can launch Size 1 Rockets. Perfect for moving rockets to an inclined launch site. For use in the SPH. I wouldn't recommend launching a rocket with solid boosters on the Mobile Launch Platform, it will destroy some solar panels if you aren't careful. I also wouldn't recommend launching any larger rockets on here. Try to not go over 15m/s with the transporter. Rocket not included.

  9. How do I change my In-Game Name? Sorry if this has been asked already but I don't really have the patience to go though 17 pages of replies.
  10. Here is a picture of the craft: https://www.flickr.com/photos/125098664@N06/1430909301
  11. Download Link: http://www./view/bf24bc5abrpzyl8/Dragon_v2.craft Just put in your Ships folder! Version 0.2 SpaceX's new capsule is the Dragon v2, formerly known as DragonRider. This is my stock capsule made to resemble it. Action Groups Abort: Decouples the capsule from the rocket and fires the SuperDraco engines. 9: Fires the emergency chutes. Change Log: 1. Made ALL FOUR chutes fire when you press 9! https://www.flickr.com/photos/125098664@N06/14309093016/
  12. This is my take: https://www.flickr.com/photos/125098664@N06/14309093016/
  13. --- OUTDATED --- Build 0.1 With stock parts, I made a Dragon V2 Capsule. It is based on the real Dragon V2, check out SpaceX's website for info on that. Action Groups: Abort = Separates the Dragon Capsule from the trunk and fires the SuperDraco side-mounted engine. 9 = Fires the emergency parachute. Download Instructions: Download and place in the ships - VAB folder. It's that simple! Link: https://www./?d9d0bcp4wxdu7na
