  1. Any plan for Vostok,Voskhod, Soyuz fairings? Their shape are impossible to to recreate by stock fairing system
  2. Will Energia update come with Hydrolox+Cryo Engine Support? I want to make a Soviet respond to Saturn-Shuttle, "The N1-Buran" the cursest rocket ever
  3. Uhmm...I load to my duna transfer craft the engine immidately meltdown despite it have a lot of radiators and the engine was already shutted down previously
  4. http://spaceflighthistory.blogspot.com/2019/01/apollo-to-mars-venus-north-american.html Another Apollo flyby. This one is a very interesting concept, but might be too much to put into saturn revamp. It's far more complicated than other porposal
  5. Well, HG-3 have much more better TWR than J2-X (Ares). Both J2-Xs can fit nicely if using tweak scaled NFLV S-II engine mount with medium-short interstage.
  6. Closest I can get is 1 SSME ground lit another 2 air lit but it flip over as soon as LDC burn out. Ground lit all 3 while pretty controlable, it have shorter burn time than LDC and drop tanks are already nearly big as shuttle itself
  7. Looks like your upper stage is also a bit bigger than mine. I use real scale S-II tank as a base and rescaled that flat 5m from NFLV for 3rd. Also which J-2X do you use?, I use CE with NF Realism it barely have enough TWR to get in to orbit with extremely loft tagetory.
  8. Another cursed shuttle Yup, this was a thing It is surprisingly easy to fly despite have some problem on SRB seperation. It can do 20t to 100x100 JNSQ. Launch sequence have to modify a little bit. Originally shuttle engines are lit at separation, but as I use a bigger full size EFT titan LDC core don't have TWR past 1 when SRB seperation. So SSME are air-lit shotly before SRB burn out instead. The results payload is greatly increase as a side effect. Upside down scale down SII-SIV adapter work nicely for adapting EFT to LDC and provide separation mortor prevent LDC hitting shuttle
  9. I just realize that with RS-68B I can finally make an pretty accurate version this abomination. 80t 100x100 JNSQ maybe a little bit more. Somehow shuttle tank decoupler did't work on this thing Also from diagram it looks like it use 5 RS-68 but no its 7 I count a petal on its render.
  10. N-MOL looks more interesting to me. While there is a lot more parts required. As I see it need MOL equipment module with a hole with gemini nose docking port, KH return capsule nest modified camera part into rader or something. But the hardest part seem to be jettisonable reactor on the back. None of BDB parts have reactor mechanic yet maybe just make a shround for NF kerbopower, I I'm not sure if the size is work or not
  11. I'm thinking about install connected living space for my next science run. Are Gemini revamped heat shield comparable with it?
  12. Actually this was a plan for Atlas V light (Sorry, I can't remember its actual name) which cancelled very early like Delta IV small but as I remember it was a larger tank version of Agena with the same engine as Agena-droptank and agena was exposed in the same maner as Atlas V 4xx.
  13. Man oh man, if we have every bad astronomy and rocketery in news in ths tread, it should reach over three hundred pages by now even if we don't count other fields of science. Maybe, it might be a good idea to start a new topic about bad science in news.
  14. Honestly, I'm not mod dev but I also think enlarged CBC is a vary improbable to do in BDB without load of artistic license. As there are very few information on them and completely lacks of information on its engine. Only part that is seems possible for me is RL-60 as CE one looks oversized for me. RS-800 have thrust number but that's it, RL-60 is far more complete.
  15. I'd like to present you Tory's daydream A.K.A. Sen.Shelby's second worst nightmare Yes, its Orion put directly on ACES as its service module ultimately solve the wimpy SM problem in one go. Which if it was select it will made SLS even more pointless than it already is.
  16. As RS-68 was originated from STME (Well, they are not the same thing but came from the very same cencept and STME spec is nearly identical to RS-68 Regen but bit smaller, weaker, and much lighter) this have to be done. Surprisingly. it is much easier to fly than all other shuttle proporsal I tried. Payload about 17t to LKO, a little bit more than SRB, might be able to put 20t if add more fuel for OMS. As I tested It can put 20t but it will have no fuel left for deorbit. Lift off TWR 1.53 at max payload is quite good for all LH2 system. For 3-SSME C varaint It can get 26t to LKO. Actually the proposal use 4 STME for each booster but I think it is burn too fast and the mount don't have enough space so I reduced to half also, RS-68 weight twice STME put 8 of them simply maky dry mass heavier to the point that dV were cut down significantly. There is no information on its weight but I suggest to make RS-68 regen lighter than alabative variant in future update. I think regen nozzle should be lighter than thick ablative nozzle Unfortunately, 5m dcss is too big for shuttle C so I can't do Shuttle-Orion proposal @Zorg @CobaltWolf Can we have more variant for LDC engine mount? I think current x2 is too small to accommmodate a larger engine. From the diameter I think it might be able to handle 2 size 1.5 engines if the base flared out the same diameter as x3 mount
  17. So... I make a saturn shuttle-C It is a nightmare to fly. Also seemingly authur of Shuttle-C forgot to add LFO to the engine mount so the OMS didn't work EDIN05 is far worse it is nearly impossible to control. Grond lit SSME cause all hell brake loose as 3 F-1 doesn't have enough roll control authority to counter torque generated by SSMEs, 4 F-1 might enough but I see no point of having just one less engine than Saturn-Shuttle Out of 5 attempt on flyomg this thing only 1 manage to get into orbit
  18. You can't expect any sense from Chinese blockbuster anyways. They're all CGI showcase to me.
  19. Basically cut-down version of saturn-shuttle but with LRB pod with 3-4 F-1 and lit at the same time as SSME unlike saturn-shuttle which SSME are air-lit
