  1. How the 'hell' did that happen!? It's practically a tiny star! Sure, on Monday, when I have time, I'll also do Ur-anus Btw, I won't be on here much (Or at all) today, and possibly tomorrow.
  2. It's a 33-37 year trip. It's supposed to be a colony ship. I'll mess with inclinations, also, day/night cycles can be on habitable planets around red dwarfs, Luck? It'll be something like Skylon. 1-2 g continued acceleration. I won't be able to reply to much in a while, my mom needs my computer
  3. Jeb won't mind I'm updating it to 12 then.
  4. It looks like the Orion. But due to the size of Kerbals, you could probably fit 12 of 'em in there regardless.
  5. I once tried getting Jeb off the Mun by using his RCS, But... But... I failed, and I had to terminate him
  6. Magic? The book said it was a Nuclear powered VASIMR thruster, (The solar panels were a backup just in case the nuclear reactor lost power ((So, you know, the crew wouldn't die)), And extra power for the thrusters ((The more power you give it, the faster you can go))) not magic, just a concept. And the book also said they needed Artificial gravity, otherwise when they got to Mars they wouldn't be able to walk properly for the first week.
  7. 1 Orion = 5 Kerbals 2 shuttles (For symmetry) = 14 Kerbals 4 Dragon Capsules (Right now, it's the V-2) = 28 Kerbals 47 Kerbals are goin' to space today!
  8. What are you trying to do? Hack into them? Now that I think about it, your profile picture/Username looks suspicious, so what exactly is your evil awesome plan? Also, it's *their
  9. Yes, it also has Falcon 9 core boosters strapped to the sides
  10. It could be if we discuss the hive mind, and cyborgs
  11. Magnetic containment field. I guess not, but seeing as I'll have to completely redesign the Starship, my old design is outdated
  12. Okay, then the Medusa is too slow for my purposes, so... A pure Anti-Matter rocket then, I could easily get to 17% c, I just don't know how much Anti-Matter I'll need for it.
  13. 1: Medusa sail. The sail is made out of Graphene, for strength. 2: Cables. The cables connecting the sail to the ship is made from Carbon nanotubes 3: The directional tube for the bombs. Again, these are made of Carbon nanotubes, with a magnetic confinement system 4: Bomb package. the bomb package contains all of the bombs for the acceleration/deceleration parts of the mission 5: Radiation shield. The radiation shield is 5 meters thick with saltwater, and protects the crew from radiation sickness 6: The habitat modules. The habitat modules contain the life support systems, crew quarters, and miscellaneous stuff such as a mess hall, and rec area (I'll be going into more detail with these later) 7: Capula. The capula is for making sure the crew doesn't go crazy thinking they're still on Earth and whatnot 8: Navigation. This module is for making sure they don't end up at the center of the Milky Way 9: Nuclear reactor/radiators. These nuclear reactors are for making sure they have plenty of power for the ~35 year cruise from Earth to Wolf 359. 10: Spaceplane. Obviously, there will be more than one on the hab module, but I put it there so you'd know where it's going What do you think of the (Still rough) design of the Starship?
  14. How many parts do you plan to make? And what could they be?
  15. I updated the Jupiter system, and did Saturn Laythe Mass 9.3 Moons | Radii 3538 km | Temp 20 c | Tidally locked | Atm pressure 7.8 | .37 gees | Magnetic field .13 Gauss | Albedo .20 | Materials Iron 42.2% Silicate 43% Water 14.7% Organics 0.00295% | Callisto Mass 1.46 Moons | Radii 2510 km | Temp -51 c | Day/night cycle, 18 days | .12 gees | Albedo .20 | Materials Iron 69.4% Water 30.65 (It was the only way I could get the gravity close to real life) | ________________________________________________________________________ Enceladus Mass .18 Moons | Radii 1219 km | Temp -231 c | Day/night cycle 32 days | 0.06 gees | Albedo .98 | Materials Iron 78.7% Water 21.1% Organics 0.171% Titan Mass 0.06 Earths | Radii 3311 km | Temp -185c | Day/night cycle 26.4 days | Atm pressure 2 | .22 gees | Magnetic field 0.08 Gauss | Albedo .30 | Materials Iron 44.3% SIlicate 55% Water 0.0374% Organics 0.0357% | Iaptus Same OTL
  16. I know, but 1, Wolf 359 is more stable than say Proxima, and 2 if the planet has a strong magnetic field (And is lucky enough), it could survive its parent stars' wild activity long enough for the star to stabilize.
  17. I said it was really rough Also, I wanted windows so they wouldn't turn into religious cult crazies thinking the ship was fake and all that (That might make for an interesting story, focusing on that, but no) . I also forgot that a Medusa Starship had to be designed backwards in a way What about 17%? Also, I intended for the crew to be awake the entire time, not asleep. Also, I wanted the "Anti-matter catalyzed NPP Medusa sail" Because I wanted to be creative with my story, instead of using clichés such as using Proxima as the parent star, or some sort of slow ship that requires generations of people/ Earth 2 is near the inner edge of the HZ, and Earth 3 is just outside of it, plus there are other planets that could help stabilize things. I was considering putting a dwarf gas giant in, I might do that. That's what I intended
  18. This is what the spacecraft will (Very roughly, mind you) look like, (Keep in mind, the sail is not to scale, the 2 cylinders will be 25 meters wide, and 55 meters long):
  19. Jupiter same (OTL) Laythe Mass 9.3 Moons | Radii 3286 km | Temp 20 c| Tidally locked | .43 gees (It wouldn't let me change its radius) | Atm pressure 7.8 Atm (Hey, it's a survivable pressure, and you wanted 20 c) | Albedo .24 | Magnetic field .2 Gauss | Materials Iron 19.8%, Silicate 80.1%, Water 0.0943%, Organics 0.04% | Callisto Mass 1.46 moons | Radii 2507 km | Temp -30 c | 8 hour day/night cycle | .12 gees (I couldn't change its radius) | Albedo .21 | Materials Silicate 82.1% Water 17.8%, Organics 0.1% Also, I have 2 screenshots (Laythe looked really blue)
  20. ? This is for my sci-fi book idea, also, I'm getting to the outer solar system now, I'm doing one Gas giant at a time.
