That is more a question of what sort of orbit you want than efficiency. And, there are efficiencies of rendezvous. Remeber that Apollo 13 wouldn't have been a "successful failure" if the LEM hadn't been there as a lifeboat.

The thing with the % chance is a great example of the genious of Sam Clemons (Mark Twain). More recient studies have even put historic Apollo in single digits on chance of success.

Any updates on the Probes Plus partnership and the Viking orbiter/lander that was mentioned a few weeks back? ---No rush; just asking--- Also, was there ever any statement yes/no to doing a all LH2 switch for the wetlabs? Some of us like to power our Kerbals and make them glow like the mini-krakens...

ARK? what is that mod? Also, in honor of the scrub today.... I will be building stuff for Apollo program again, now that I have ditched Kerbalism (due to the unrealistic weight changes) for reasons that mod team has voiced here. After all, if we don't have real world moon landing capable system, we may as well sim in one!

Having read up in this...best use was accidently almost killing astronauts!

Truely a prolific mod! Serious Congrats!

admit it...if you could find a way past the looks, you like the delta v..... ok...the looks is a BIG ask...

its ok. Jeb never had a crash that he didn't walk away from that he described as "not worth it". After all, OH the SCIENCE from the telemetry! Kerbal-day BBQ grill?

Ugly is relative.... but in wet navy terms.... it has the tiny bow of a corvette (smaller than a Destroyer) and the back end of a Montana class (very THICK battleship that made the Iowas look like skinny jeans). The combo of that would get any navy designer keel hauled. Just go with the more elegant externals. If you do that right, you can even do some asparagus fuel for the main stack....

...when you click on "like" and the forum tells you that Bob ran out of facial expressions for the day.... ...They underestimate my piloting! Looks really sharp. Will be getting thing back into my current build over the weekend. Love the texturing work upgrades.

Folks that do the pretty photos: is this using real ksc mod in 1.12.x? My understanding was that support died mny moons ago. Also, I don''t mind doing leg work; but 30 pages into skimming for the specific filers references, can someone throw me a lifeline? If orc, tu was part of it, and I use it....but what were the 'extra' that allow aged looks, etc. Greatly appreciated.

Looks promising. Will grab it tonight. _______________ Leo/Gemini: I was listening to Scott Manley on the way into the office. It was a slightly older episode (reviewing heat shields after Starliner return). He mentioned that the offset center of mass. Was actually first used during thst program. Could we get this applied at some point like the Apollo COM part switch?

Glad to hear of the partnership (through the BDB thread). You have some phenomenal stuff and I have used your mod in many builds over the years. Looking forward to more great news!

Spruce Goose! Granted, but it was a flesh wound. I wish for a clean bandage.

I eat crow where I self serve it. As for the double L, I gave in and posted from my phone. I hate to do that because I am all thumbs.

Inquiring minds *DO* want to know.... how the heck does he get them that nice. I guessed that he was just doing section by section in the VAB with a chromakey of some sort; but it would be interesting to know the 'behind the scenes...

Is this dead again?

I will neither confirm, nor deny something that happens that late and when, on the next day I am seeing concussed. Didn't mean to come across crosswise. I have been watching that one since it hit the dev build and had seen where there had been mention that there were several texts that were (at the time) just placeholder. I just know that by the time things hit main that these folks tend to get it polished. Again, apollogies.

Dang man, you are gonna kill my SDD. I downloaded two days in a row when I gave in to get the white Mk3/4 stuff, then yesterday for the LRV which has been better than drugs... Now I am gonna again to get the new goodies.... oh, of course I am talking dev branch. You guys are amazing to crank stuff out like this. Home · friznit/Unofficial-BDB-Wiki Wiki · GitHub it doesn't give you part by part....but you can get a really good feel. If you like FASA, you will LOVE BDB. If you like Tanares, you will LOVE BDB. If you even thought hey KSP might be cool; but lets get real parts... You will be addicted to this mod in a great way....Just like I am. ___________________________________ On other notes, spent the evening working with the LRV Dev build... so far enjoyable. I ended the night with a full J+ Class build (meaning build for JNSQ with Kerbalism and then see how much you can squeeze in)... I got it ready for Lunar Orbit insertion. Tomorrow hope to have some time to get some screenshots of LRV in use. The RUD may be a mass or volume related. I had seen your warning but took a chance anyway with two parts that should be Solar Wind Composition stick and the Color Reference stand. I had it out a few times to the pad to check unpack and did not have any strange happenings. *Still User be warned.... explosiveness may still occur.

Pretty sure that will be a working lab SOONTM . But I would not expect much speed in the processing of science. Given the limited facilities... And it is Dev branch, so at least we have a toy to tempt us for future possibilities.... Like a ground collision Kraken? What point in the deployment? "Keeps" multiple times at same step? On the pad or planetary surface away from pad? Sorry, got stuck in t/s mode there for a minute...

Ya, don't question my typing when I was as tired as I was... but certainly question my staging at the same point.

I know Colbat is the maker.... but that was quite a video. I was speaking of the team, with heavy emphasis on Cobalt's genius, but yes the team.

Holy BEYOND worth the waiting! I imagined dribble.... just something that was able to fit..... what you do is amazing!

There is a dead mod out there.... might be able to pick up.... or perhaps Linux would be moved and resuect, what.... the10,000 revival of something he pulled back to life?

I've always said If it fits; Send It!
