Real Space Program [Need Launch Controllers] [Launch 1/14/17]

[ZooNamedGames]

I'm going to be experimenting with my aforementioned idea in stock KSP, if it works, I will expand it into RO/RSS (once I get it working, which after the experiment will be my prime goal for today).

We need to finish rolecall, we only have 2 roles called. You have until Friday to call or you WILL BE DROPPED.

Secondly, I have plans for our second launch after this manned one. My plan is to deploy a satellite into orbit (possibly one of the submitted payloads), and then use the second stage of our launcher as an experimental station hub. Using it, I plan to dock vessels to it, possibly refuel and or just rendezvous. Thoughts?

How does one rolecall?

Just type "[your name] [your role] -GO"

Awaiting 6 more to call out. @legoclone09 @Cooboo @MysteriousSteve @WellItExplodedAgain @SpaceplaneAddict and @agent 902 .

Not ready yet, IRL getting in way. I might be able to finish it tonight, we need how many days of LS? I could also make a battery pack/solar panel pack, if that is fine. I'll try to have maximum mission duration be about 3 days.

Are you go for the LAUNCH as of this time?

Nope, not go for launch. I will definitely be go for launch by the date, however. This Saturday has nothing planned!

We need 40L of O2, and as much electric charge as you can pack in, and that's it. And if you are go for launch by that date, then you are go now.

Alright, I might add in an extra few kg of food for backup. And up it to 100L of oxygen, it's not much more mass. I'll will keep it under 5 tons.

Ok, will someone please catch me up? Too much back and forth for a tired brain... what are all of the positions so I can make sure I have signature gifs for them...

Oh my this is awesome! And if you'd be kind enough to supply me the vehicles I'll do some programming on the weekend, I'll have to figure out an optimal trajectory so if anyone has an idea if what it is I'll be delighted to insert it

The kerbalx links are at the bottom of the respective docs, under availability.  If they're not working, I'll PM you them.

We added-

CAPsule COMmunicator (which still needs to be confirmed)
Electrical, Environmental, and COnsumables Manager
Flight Activities Officer (new) was combined with Payload Operations Officer (old)
Guidance, Navigation, and Control systems engineer ( @EladDv and @ILikeIke- writing code for the capsule orientation and launch profile.)
 

[agent 902]

if not already confirmed agent902 - Launch Operations Director GO!

[ILikeIke]

ILikeIke, GNC (Capsule), is in an unplanned hold for Software-Hardware Integration Testing and the bug fixing that comes with it. I anticipate being able to report GO in the next few days.

Good to hear. Let's start planning for a set date and time. Let's aim for 12pm EST.

Also, after many failed attempts, I will have to step down from astronaut sadly, however I will return to FD status. We require someone with port forwarding to man the mission.

We need a man, a set date and time and a majority GO status by 3/24, or the launch will be launch or scrubbed.

[ILikeIke]

@ZooNamedGames - if we can't find an astronaut, why don't we stick a probe core onto the capsule and treat it like a test run for a first manned flight?

Or put a normal Kerbal in it and say he's mute?

Okay, here's how I'm going to schedule this:

First I'll do a go/no go on a couple of dates, asking which they can do, which they cannot do, and which would work the best.  Then I'll do the same with times.

@ZooNamedGames, @Dman979, @MysteriousSteve, @CliftonM, @Gaarst, @agent 902, @the_pazter, @WellItExplodedAgain, @Cooboo, @Tanner Rawlings, @SpaceplaneAddict.

I need to know which of the dates you can do, cannot do or would work best:

April 1

April 2

April 3

April 4

Other

1&2 are go.  3 is no go, and 4 is go.
