LKO Refueling Station


Recommended Posts

I made this station with the intention of putting it in a (very) Low Kerbal Orbit, like 80km or so.

The point is to use it a refueling point for those crafts you have that can barely make it into orbit, or crafts you have that can go orbit just fine, but need that extra fuel to go somewhere else. Or you can just put anywhere you want.

As you can see, it was not built to be flown into orbit, so you'll have to use HyperEdit or edit the save file. You can however try to fly it into orbit (good luck...), or separate it in several different parts and assemble it in orbit.

I'm not sure, but it has about 300 parts. You can remove some of them, like lights and fuel tanks caps and maybe some struts.

You'll need several mods, such as:

- Near Future (at least solar, power, structural and fuels)

- B9 Aerospace (fuel caps, lights, struts and RCS tanks)

- Mk IV Space Plane system (not sure, but I think the RCS ports are from this mod)

- Tweak Scale (som tank caps are scaled up)

It has several types of fuel and no space for crew. I intended to add crew space, but it would get gigantic...

Hope you like it :)
