Astrum Spacecraft Technologies - Rockets for the Past, Present, and Future!

[Yeomans]

Astrum Spaceflight Technologiesâ„¢ is proud to present groundbreaking research into new vertical and horizontal takeoff technology, which will advance the reach of Kermankind farther than ever before. Astrum scientists from around the globe, collaborating with freelance designers, researchers, and spacecraft enthusiasts, have come up with designs and prototypes for all levels of spaceflight, be it suborbital, orbital/planetary, interplanetary, or even interstellar flight.

New designs and testable craft will be added frequently, and posted with each craft will be the difficulty level, suggested use, part suppliers, and a brief synopsis with an image. Many craft will be updated with time and will be in numbered sequence.

We provide Testing Oppertunties so that the public may try our spacecraft out, at their own risk, for free. To save the design, right click the 'Download' link in the appropriate spacecraft's section and click 'Save link As...'

It is recommended that Mechanical Jeb is installed, as the majority of Astrum's rockets use it, and it makes difficult spacecraft easier to use.

• PEGASUS SERIES •

The Pegasus series of rockets are tall rockets used for moon flight and interplanetary flight. These rockets are hard to control due to their size, but they can travel large distances. Patience and focus are needed for any success with these rockets.

The Pegasus I is the original design. Based off the Saturn V rocket, the Pegasus I was intended to be a larger, more powerful rocket. The increase in size created some notable issues: the Pegasus I is very unstable in the atmosphere, and MechJeb or at least an Advanced S.A.S. Module should be used. The lower stages do not rotate fast in space, and are not easy to stop when they are moving. Ultimately though, this design kicked off the Pegasus Series, an ongoing project.

The Pegasus II is an improvement on the Pegasus I's design. The Pegasus II was built from Scratch, and the finished design is slightly smaller than it's predecessor. The new design alleviates some of the issues with the Pegasus I, however, not all issues are completely solved. MechJeb is recommended for Ascent, but a skilled pilot can launch the Pegasus II.

One month annerversary! It looks good, and you should have some comments by now

Haha thanks! I kind of let this thread drift off because it wasn't getting any bites, but I might have to resurrect it now thanks to you!

And resurrected it will be, I have lots of designs (realistic and outrageous) to post.

Urg, I think I'll just post screenies of my designs from now on instead of editing them, It'll make the whole process a bit faster.
