April 10th, 2030 Go Go Juice ESPIRIT Module Flown by Aardvark Orion and Shuttle-C ESPIRIT is launched aboard a shuttle-C, ESA contracting NASA for the launch. Ariane 6 will launch a NASA payload instead of ESPIRIT. (BTW, I'm trying to decide between which HLS to use. Starship HLS or Lockheed Martian HLS. Any thoughts?)

They're red. The exact red, idk. But This is the latest photo I can find of Rassvet. I said they might be dulled a little because they've been sunbathing for a while, so might be more towards the pinkish side? I'm not sure. In this picture one of them looks pinkish and the other more orangeish? I'm a little color blind when it comes to red. I can see red and tell it's red, but different shades of red are difficult for me.

Rassvet's trunnions are still there and are still bright red. Well, maybe a little dull, but they definitely weren't removed. The other red bits, yeah.

@EStreetRockets I think there's a collision issue with the Shuttle-C 5m parts. It keeps exploding the payload inside. The payload I have is no more than 3.125m in diameter. When I got to separate the top shell, it constantly collides with the payload. As you can see the payload comes nowhere close to the walls.

Oh right, they're the 'other' kind of solar power. As to why they stopped, probably hard to make it work in zero-g. On Earth, you can have the liquid fall using gravity, so you don't have to have multiple pumps running liquid both up and down the heating tower. In space you would need pumps to run the full loop. Another reason would probably be boil off. The gas would need to be topped off every few months via spacecraft supply, which wouldn't be hard mind you, just expensive. A final reason, and the most likely one, cost. The cost to ship up the materials, to teach cosmonauts how to weld and work with specialized tools to build this specialized machinery was probably too costly for their liking. I mean, sure, you could probably have launched it as one piece using Energia and some folding of the reflective dish, but again, costly.

The Habitation was launched aboard Starship Super Heavy and was tugged by Aardvark Orion. Also, my pics will be darker in some shots from now on. I went and got Blackrack's Volumetric Clouds and am using their TUFX profile. Full album: Imgur: The magic of the Internet Yeah, hot staging didn't go so well... oops.

@Beale I remember you saying either you would like to do Mir-2 or you were going to do Mir-2. The real one, not ETS one. Is that still on the table? Do you still plan to do it?

Just realized... we could probably kitbash Mir-2 from ETS with these new parts.

Did you install the Extra's folder? Specifically "Bluedog_DB_extras"? And is it in your gamedata folder or did you put it inside the Bluedog folder? The Bluedog_DB_extras folder should be in the KSP gamedata folder, as there are a few things inside the extra folder that need the specific folder hierarchy.
