I heard that there are like, 2 upgrades for the LR-101 verniers, with one destined for Atlas 2 having less thrust due to a study showing that it could be controlled with less thrust. if such variants are real, will we get them as part upgrade configs? (no model changes)

So just to let you all know I'm not dead
and that work has started on the next project
Below are 3 variations of the LR-105 Atlas sustainer engine. From left to right they represent NA3, NA5 and the last represents NA6, NA7 and RS56 OSA.
This is still early work in progress and theres some fixes and adjustments still due. Also the powerhead is largely based on photos of an Atlas E NA6 so all the small details around there wont be accurate to every version but its broadly representative. Anyway just wanted to share since it beginning to look like something.
Incredible!
question: how will the booster engines be like? (minus the atlas E/F ones that had completely seperate booster engines) will they be conjoined (shared pumps and everything and also shared GG for RS-56OBA) and then also standalone ones for kitbashing stuff or will they be just single?

Wow, this is great! I love it when electrical engines get the love they deserve!

There were studies back in the day for SRBs that could be shut down (and reignited!) using an extinguisher system. I don't think it made it very far, I think it was mostly a result of experts trying to push the capabilities of SRBs past what was needed.
I remember hearing about some small upper stage solids that could cause such combustion instabilities through an to me unknown way that the combustion stops
did such a concept ever exist?

Syncom now on the BDB github! The world's first geosynchronous (Syncom 2, via Delta B) and geostationary (Syncom 3, via Delta D) satellite. This satellite is fully balanced, so a Delta B should be able to place Syncom in an inclined geosynchronous orbit on KSRSS Reborn, and a Delta D should be able to place Syncom in a geostationary (0 degree inclination) orbit.
freaking incredible!!!

Trying to get myself in the back of the swing of modeling so I’m gonna finish one of my smaller projects: Syncom!
A tiny Hughes communication satellite. Syncom 3 was the world’s first geostationary communications satellite! It uses the star 13 solid motor as its apogee motor, which already exists in BDB
YES!

This looks incredibly cool!

Oh yes, this is fixed in my local copy and will be in the next release. many thanks.
Tantares will be developed from scratch for KSP 2
The first steps would be... idk, creating a soyuz capsule or something.
will this soyuz still be for tantares 1 (aka for ksp 1)?

I'm sorry but this is the most cursed thing i've ever seen
tbh it's pretty nice and sane looking actually, especially the folding warpdrive

Having SIb troubles again, with the H1s in the original config and the SM set to orbital I only have a twr of 0.93. Playing in 2.5 KSRSS.
there must be massive dry mass issues with your rocket, while I have experienced TWR issues with Saturn 1B launching historical payloads myself, never did it go below like 1.05 TWR

Why would someone need c8 when MLV exist?
that's the point, there is no reason to have ''C-8 not-NOVA''
it's just, some people ask for it, just because they like this conceptual abomination of a rocket

When S IC wetlab?
tbh, what I would really like would be a sort of S-IC drylab where the crewed section is in the intertank section, this, coupled with Saturn 5-B (1.5 stage S-1C), leads to a pretty cool station

So what, 6 seconds of Fuel with 4 J-2 engines?
The APS engine looks SOO out of place on the Orbital small SM.... Thanks for the screen shots!
*4 XLR-129s but yeah, it's maybe a bit too powerful

yep, VFB lab but 3m stretched.
stretching a lab like this seems to be tricky to make, atleast in my eyes

How are you going with these part set? I'll need them on my life!!!
lol I literally just made a (crappy that is inferior to a real well-made one) Tiros-N kitbash

NERVA II nuclear engine now on the BDB development branch on github. This is if you've not seen it before, taller even than the M1, dedicated interstages and mounting hardware will come later so users will need to improvise a bit for now.
update jumpcare

that looks quite nice, also the space shuttle engine texture looks crisp
it's RS-68K, aka RS-68 with a regenerative nozzle, real concept
