My minmus base

[The Minmus Derp]

I am designing a Minmus base. currently, I have room for 14 kerbals, a science lab, and an isru.

what else should i add?

Someone reply

hey Derp, Spacecraft exchange is usually more intended for you to share your creations, I'll move this to gameplay questions and see if it has more success there.

Well, with room for that many Kerbals, it's gonna be very heavy. So you aren't going to want to move it again. So if it does mining and ISRU, then you will want some way of getting the refined fuel out of that ship and back to orbit. So it's going to be more about what additional rovers and support ships you will need for the base.

For the base itself, you just need solar panels, a couple radiators, some drills, storage for Ore, storage for fuel, and some way for a rover to attach to the base and suck the refined fuel out.

If your plan is to use it as a fuel station make sure to include some mono-propellant tanks. ( fly them there empty ).

Some communication equipment, and lights.

Data storage device, and some science equipment.

Also a probe core, unless you want to leave a pilot there.

I do not know if you want but a return system would be fine, right? and many batteries sorry for any translation error of google translate

Thx @Noobton I’m gonna add SCIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[RizzoTheRat]

In that case, if you're in to mods, take a look at the Surface Experiment Pack, it adds (unsurprisingly given the name) science experiments that you set up on the surface, but you will also need KIS/KAS to be able to use it

cool

Take and store as many science measurements as you can along the way.

Launch pad, Kerbin orbit,Minmus SOI, Minmus high orbit, Minmus low orbit, and all of it again after you land.

[The Minmus Derp]

Yeah. #LotsaScience

Add a relay antenna, preferably the biggest one you have so far. RA-100 is best.

[The Minmus Derp]

JX-2 is the best, actually.

I mean unmodded. 10 RA-100s can do the same, though, as their strength stacks.

[The Minmus Derp]

Oh.

I would recommend a strong communications network and a rover to get more science from other places, if you are playing in science/career mode. And in terms of mining, don't forget a good source of power and radiators so the drills don't stop mining. And if you are going to stop by Minmus for fuel during long-range missions, then don't forget a big fuel tank with a docking port for transferring. Also, add many, many science parts, even if you are in sandbox, because it a) makes your base look cooler and b) fills up empty space. Other than that, you should be good. It all depends on if you are doing a tourism base, a mining operation, or a science lab. Or all of those things...

Not sure if you're still  working on it, but I would recommend a drilling rig and battery bank. If you've already added the drill, then have fun and design some of your own modules. I like adding things like "Medical bays," "greenhouses," and "galleys."

[The Minmus Derp]

Sure! Will do dat. ALso, I have MKS.
