It's low, rounded shape almost reminds me of the lower Appalachians of Tennessee. Expand The lack of an atmosphere and the low sun angle makes the shadows sharply defined, and it's why the lunar mountains and peaks look jagged through a telescope or from orbit. For a long time that's how the lunar mountains were depicted in artwork, but the reality as you've seen is that everything is smooth and rounded due to eons of bombardment from micrometeroids.

Space_nico Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 (edited) Good evening all, I've got few questions about this great mod : - There is a tutorial for the rotating stage for Delta II? I tried to make one with no great success... If someone know how to proceed, i'll give you a warm thanks. - For Delta III dual payload fairing (a.k.a. The Holy Ariane IV's Spelda style ♥ ), where do you put the whole fairing? On the satellite, on the base and put the satellite inside? Thanks for your help folks!

The Holy Ariane IV's Spelda style ♥ ), where do you put the whole fairing? On the satellite, on the base and put the satellite inside? Thanks for your help folks! Expand 1. here is a rough diagramm of how to place (for example) the Star-48/PAM-D on (for example) the Delta-K upper stage steps during launch: 1. turn off SAS (optional but recommended) 2. stage the ''Spinner''. it will decouple from the Delta-K and spin, making the PAM-D spin-stabilized. 3. Fire the PAM-D and wait until it is burnt out 4. use 2+ yoyo despins to slow down the rotation (NOT pictured above)(optional but recommended) 5. decouple the payload from the PAM-D with a normal 0.9375m decoupler (NOT pictured above) ----------------------------------- 2. when you place the DPA on the delta 3 fairing base or the titan CT-3 (commercial titan), you place the adapter ontop of the first (lower) payload use a seperate decoupler for the 2nd (upper) payload 1. decouple upper payload 2. decouple DPA 3. decouple lower payload EDIT: additionally, the CT-3 fairing features 2 nodes, so you don't need to place the DPA ontop of the payload but instead onto the upper fairing node Edited February 12, 2022 by Starhelperdude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want other considered sites, maybe Marius Hills, or Alphonsus crater? Copernicus was never seriously considered after 12 and 14 because those missions already sampled Copernicus ejecta.

If you want other considered sites, maybe Marius Hills, or Alphonsus crater? Copernicus was never seriously considered after 12 and 14 because those missions already sampled Copernicus ejecta. Expand Yeah Hyginus and Marius have both been on my radar, but the problem with both of those is that I’m pretty sure they’re both in the Oceanus Procellarum biome which I’ve already sampled. Marius Hills also has the added complication of not being big enough to be distinguished with KSRSS’s scale and terrain detail, and without any recognizable features such as the Hole, there’s no reason to land there over any other site. On the other hand somewhere like Copernicus will still retain some identifying features that I can plan the mission around. Alphonsus… had completely slipped my mind before now. I think Mare Nubium has its own biome in KSRSS, so that might actually be a viable site. Hmm, thanks for the tip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Docking nose cone carries Electrical power and electrical command connections only.. There is ZERO room for anything more in that nose cone. As has been previously stated, the nose RCS would prevent anything or anybody bigger than an electron, going from the nose cone to the cockpit area. Also the Cockpit does not have room for a person to move "up" into the nose even if there was room in the nose. And contrary to some KSP effects and peoples opinion, BigG is not an entirely new capsule designed to allow people to use said docking nose cone. Please note I do not call it a docking PORT, as a docking port implies a person can fit through it.
