What would a real-life colony ship look like?
KAL 9000 replied to KAL 9000's topic in Science & Spaceflight
If Moore's Law continues to hold, according to my calculations, an average laptop will be smarter than a human in ~37 years! The technological singularity is closer than we think! -
Saturn Shuttle Mission Archive [SSM-17]
KAL 9000 replied to ZooNamedGames's topic in KSP1 Mission Reports
Remember, I have a specific pilot for this mission. All payload systems are GO, we are awaiting a Go/No Go for control handoff and payload integration. We will grant permission once you confirm that Inspiration is GO for payload integration. -
Life On Every Planet In The Solar System (Hypothetical)
KAL 9000 replied to KAL 9000's topic in Science & Spaceflight
Pluto: Tidal forces between Pluto and Charon create a liquid water ocean underneath all the ice, similar to Europa. Many sea creatures live in this ocean, and the Plutonians have evolved to sentience, but their development has been hindered by the lack of fire underwater thing. -
Hypothetically, if we built a colony ship for an interstellar journey, what would it look like, and what systems would it need to have?

Dun dun DAH! No, I think Do-OUCH, MY SHIN! died of shock when he found out that someone was a better pilot than him. Although he should already know: *cough* Jeb *cough* -
Nope, I'm 10 hours late to @cubinator's post. @Red Iron Crown?

The QBEsat is GLITCHING THROUGH THE [CENSORED] KSS DOCKING PORT!!! Look what I have been forced to resort to: And that was after I rammed the docking port at ~25 m/s AND RELOADED THE QUICKSAVE!!! Even MechJeb can't dock it! *Cue "Imperfect Lock" and cinematic*

Experiencing unexpected delays... AKA bugs. But nothing can stop this module from going up!

QBEsat 01 "Jetski" will launch later today. It's a communications satellite that the Jool ship can deploy around Jool. Other QBEsats will be for Laythe, Tylo, etc.

When will SSM-M15 launch? -
The deployer is a Structural Fuselage with the QBEsat tucked inside it (attached to a 0.625m decoupler, obviously) and a 1.25m decoupler on top of the Fuselage to get rid of its docking port when it's released. The QBEsat is a QBE with a reaction wheel on top, a stackable battery on the bottom, an RTG offset into the QBE, and an antenna on top.

I'm designing a QBEsat+deployer within the limit, to be released around Jool!

Waiting for permission for the Laythe SSTO. @Jetski, a test in a different save showed that KAS/KISing/docking the SSTO together in orbit is impossible, due to clipping issues. It does not fly properly without those clipped parts being clipped, which is a problem: The only way to get this to the Jool ship is to launch it in a >8 part piece. Which means that I need this one exception in order to add it. So, yeah... Can I get just one exception to send this up? It's a reliable SSTO that handles like a dream, and works on Kerbin and Laythe. So: Go/No Go?

It's simple: A poster explains why this thread needs Moar Boosters than it already has, and adds some to the total. I'll go first: We need at least one booster! Total: 1 Booster (0 RT-5 "Flea"s, 0 RT-10 "Hammer"s, 0 BACC "Thumper"s, 0 Sepatron 1s, 0 Launch Escape Systems, and 1 S1 SRB-KD25k "Kickback")

For your orbit question: MOAR BOOSTERS never hurt anyone.
