  1. I've never attempted this, but what happens when an asteroid hits an airless body at a very high speed?
  2. Great idea! definitly gonna try that out with this a-class asteroid
  3. I'm currently chasing an A-class asteroid atm, skipper engine all the way!
  4. I am very curious to see if someone actually wants to attempt this. Just imagine a giant ball-pit of E-class asteroids! Thoughts?
  5. Probably landed it top right, and then it just flipped over.
  6. This is really nice looking and very simple, do you have the craft file for it?
  7. Thanks guys for all the info, sorry I haven't replied at all, but I decided this was all a bit too much for me and I cancelled the operation. I took runes advice and am currently doing missions around Minmus and the Mun. Whatever this might mean to you guys, I've done 3 missions to mars, all of them sloppily done. So I don't think I'm ready for journey to Laythe yet.
  8. Lots of operations going on around lathe, never the less, very cool!
  9. Gonna be hard to get those guys in solar orbit .
  10. I've been having a lot of trouble lately getting to Jool with my ground base, space station, two planes, and a couple of rovers (Getting to laythe from Jool orbit should be easy). Each of these have their own nuclear tug (the tugs have 3240 units of fuel and two nuclear rockets). It took me a long time to assemble this in kerbin orbit and now I want to see if this was worth it. I wanted to do a test first so that nothing went wrong, so I took the tug with the ground base and waited for the window to Jool (using ksp transfer calculator). I used the maneuver node to see how much I would need to burn to get to Jool, the best i could get was 1934m/s for a Jool periapsis of about 1,400,000,000. I started my burn, keeping the header on the blue vector. I stopped there cause it seemed like something wasn't right. So first question is, should I keep the header on the prograde vector? Next question is how to lower that huge periapsis before actually getting into Jool orbit? Hope you guys can help me
  11. Hi bsalis, i'm having a lot of fun with your butterfly ssto, but i would really like to know what you use to refuel the plane on the ground, craft file perhaps? Thx.
