[Crafting origins]

Hello was in the car bored with my brother and wanted to celebrate the new update (1.2) somehow. We thought of cool ideas but this was the best...

 

how many satalites can you launch in one rocket (you can come back to kerbin to "reload" but no recovering vessel and relaunching off launchpad) please show images for proof of coolness 

 

rules: no hyperedit like cheats / mods 

must be on different inclinations 

minimum part count for each satalite is 3(solar panel, core, antenna)

[SR]

If you can return to Kerbin to reload you should be able to launch an infinite number of satellites with a SSTO equipped with ISRU.

you simply launch, deploy your satellite, refuel, reload and launch again.

the hard part is getting the reload all in one launch bro

Is it no hyperedit-like cheats and no hyperedit-like mods or is it no hyperedit-like cheats and no mods at all?

I clicked on here expecting something to do with the H.I.V.E. books

Anyone else do this???

Nice challenge btw.

[SpacePilotMax]

Simple.

That's 32 and the top stage with a separate probe core, but it has no antenna or power generation.

Inserted the actual video and satelite count.

[SpacePilotMax]

Actually, 2 of them aerobraked. That's 30 left.

Consisting of 1722 parts and carrying a payload of 144 relay satellites as well as 3 resource scanning satellites, I now present for your approval the CANUKWorks Polkaroo 102

I have yet to set up the individual orbits of each relay sat, however there are currently 147 satellites in orbit of Kerbin each having independent propulsion, SAS and RTG's which gives the ability to adjust orbits as the need arises ... I also sent 4 Kerbals up and included escape pods onboard (Val has made it down ... 3 more to go)

Are you thinking of something like this?

[SpacePilotMax]

Nicely done.

[Thomas H.]

It took me a while to see the beauty in this challenge.

I set up 149 satellites at an inclination difference of one degree.

But I lacked the patience sitting it through, without mods. Thats why most of the flying was done by KOS scripts.

FULL ORWELLIEN. (you should see Danny2462's video on 1.2, he goes full orwellion with functional satellites)

[Chiron0224]

This challenge reminds me of the processor melting "Kessler bombs" some people were making.

Very clever engineering, great stock piloting skills, excellent distribution of inclination angles

[Pds314]

Currently trying to launch 512 microsats.

Hmm.. Did not work. Not enough fuel in second stage. At least 3 survived in functional condition on the ground afterward though.
