I figured he would schedule your launch first, so that when my second launch comes along, the station is there for it to launch to.

2 new satellites, <RETRACTED> and Reaas Mk1 GCS-1

submitting place entry:

its on that page

so I need 10 launches of the Reass Mk1 GCS (number refers to one launching, first one GCS-1, seventh GCS-7)

and one of the <RETRACTED> for now (<RETRACTED> as you can tell is for confidential reasons, so no peeking, PM me for more info after we have agreed on contract)

[53miner53]

@StupidAndy, I could take the GCS series to LKO with Copper 1. Since the second stage would be landed for reuse, it would only cost 13,000 per launch, as opposed to the 27,000 posted for keeping the second stage in orbit with the payload.

sure, I have 9 others I need to be launched, I'll hold out for those for a bit, see whoever else wants one

first come first serve has some upsides eh

I just realized that I could also take 4 at once with Copper 1.1, at a total of 16,000 for the launch.

to add a bit of the stupid part of realism I added this:

1 per launch. no exceptions.

I don't know why, but I did

great! hooray! glories! <fourth word for celebration insert here>

okay, i have something to do:

list all my crafts and see who has what contract

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/Vagbon-I-Comsat

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/Flesba-TNASS - both on @TheEpicSquared's Iridium rocket

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/GOSAR-GCS - anyone have this one? if you do tell me

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/Garrob-GCC - I think @Brent Kerman and @Skylon were the ones who had this? right? I think it was each of them get two, whoever does it better gets the last 4

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/Zevober-GRM - anyone have this one?

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/Quaento-GWS - anyone have this one?

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/Corrmes-CMES - i think @Skylon had this one

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/RETRACTED - nobody has the <RETRACTED>

https://kerbalx.com/Stupidandy/Reaas-Mk1-GCS-1 - and I just gave the first of 10 to @53miner53

that's all of them! if you have the payload contract, or want it, just ask me, of course you have to PM me for the <RETRACTED>

Here's my tentative evil plan:

      0. Neon: Launches the Gravitas reusable NERV tug to LKO, possibly in parts. (We only do this once)

1. Neon: Launches three smallish comsats in a fairing (with it's own RCS and docking port) to LKO and rendezvous with Gravitas
2. Neon: Launches a fuel tank to rendezvous with Gravitas and refuels it. (Reusable. Might be done during launch 2)
3. Gravitas: Hauls the comsats to literally anywhere.
4. Gravitas: Returns to LKO
5. PROFIT!
6. Repeat

 

@TheEpicSquared, Can I "copyright" this so nobody else can do it?

Does anyone get the "Gravitas" reference?

 

I'll see when I get to a computer.

@TheEpicSquared Can you add this and this added to the manifest as requested?

Will do when I get to a computer in a while.

@TheEpicSquared, can you schedule a demo launch of Copper 1.1, using the demo payload here, and another launch to @Skylon station using the payload here?

Is the Copper 1.1 an improved version of the Copper 1?

I'll claim any others that need launching, if they aren't claimed fast enough for your liking.

@TheEpicSquared, You're right, Copper 1.1 is an improved Copper 1, posted here on the other thread.

Whew, I claimed them less than a minute before you replied.  

@53miner53, do you want me to overwrite the Copper 1 with the 1.1?

Copper 1, with second stage reuse, is cheaper (13,000) than Iridium 1 secondary payload (13,500), so I would be cheaper to launch with. It's up to @StupidAndy though. 

[StupidAndy]

one Reaas more for @53miner53 and one for @TheEpicSquared, so I still have 7 more to launch, @53miner53, until I have 5 more to launch, you have all that you can, its so more people can get some contracts, you already have 2 new launches

and after checking the threads, I think that @TheEpicSquared also got the GOSAR GCS

somebody needs the Zevobar and Quaento, @TheEpicSquared is in the lead with an offer!

and I'm in negotiations with one person for the <RETRACTED>, but anyone can still offer one until the SpaceX launch today at 5:07

I can fly your Reaas for 12,000 on the Arthur-1R or for 10,000 as a secondary payload

[StupidAndy]

the Reaas can only fly as the only payload on a rocket, so sure, you get a Reaas

6 more Reaas available! and 1 more until @53miner53 gets to ask again

How about two flying together? Where do they need to go?

[StupidAndy]

they go to Keostationary orbit, and not even with another Reaas, only one Reaas per flight

[TheEpicSquared]

Hold on a bit, I'll be joining the bidding war when I get home! 

[Skylon]

@TheEpicSquared why don't you start adding the comment links for payloads and lifters released, it would make them easier to find

[StupidAndy]

there's still 6 more, plenty, except for the <RETRACTED> which has to have an offer before the SpaceX launch today

Wait, they go to keostationary? I'll have to test if Copper 1.1 can take them there. If they have to fuel for the transfer from LKO, then it will be fine, but otherwise Copper 1 can't do it.

test finished: Copper 1.1 can take it to Keostationary, but can't deorbit.

I made an assumption, and it didn't go well. Fail.
