Corax Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) Selection of ballistic entry for the first stage. The base of the stage is a heatshield, which acts as a brake during descent throught the atmosphere. The centre engine is fired just before touchdown to kill off all remaining speed, eliminating the need for parachutes In an alternate timeline, where a young Egon Musk founded WeltraumX as a spin-off from MBB in 1982...

And they made a partnership with ESA, ESA must be happy with the lack of attention to which it is entitled; I'm afraid for Rosetta ... On another note @Well, is it possible to "deactivate" the integrated engine of the MRK, for some reason it keep messing with my deltaV calculation.

I've made the top adapter with many variant for many possibilies. btw on this view, we could see Tantares EndCap made by @Beale he allow me to use them, wich is awesome ! Saving time for me to make eventually more parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
