YARP - Yet Another RSS Playthrough

[MacLuky]

1970 first half

8 missions, four on the big 0D, three on the lighter 0C and 1 0L light launch. A new station around the moon and two failed mars landings

Spoiler

Having dropped off in LEO the crew of Vega 15 returns

Polaris 4 heads for the moon on a block 3B which carries an improved lander

Nearly a ton lighter and 20% more dv and a rover...

Insertion on the CM. The TLI stage had 200 m/s left, meaning we can send heavier payloads

Targeted landing is tricky, we came from 65km which is too much for this little lander

Fortunately we have a spare tank to balance out the rover that we could use

It is good we brought an engineer, the decouplers are placed wrong

We perform a 6,5 km drive around the lander

It drives like a dream up to 4.8 m/s

Planting the flag and spend a day on the surface

Departure

Dock with 100 m/s left

Going home. We discover that pointing the tank at the sun protects us from radiation

Skip rentry

A new crew is sent to Capella 3 to analyse the samples left behind and prepare for an upgrade

The station is big, but also unshielded

Mars 2 arrives but the engine explodes. Using RCS to capture but it will take 1,5 hours to burn

What if we use the descent engines on the lander?

Relay enters orbit and starts relay and scanning operations. Bad orbit though

The lander, cant make a landing, but might get to one of the moons.

Mars 3 arrives too

Eliptical orbit, release lander at Ap

This is where the exoshell gets fused to the rover

The paracutes fail to pull of the shell and we impact the surface

Rover 2 is there but very low on power, sending science would drain us completely

Series of breaking burns using RCS

Moments before impact

But we didn't relay any data..

Vega 17 have been radiated after 50 days and need to go home

We need a safer system

Altair 4 can launch on a 0C and is based on the lander descend stage

It is quickly followed by Polaris 5, 10 hours later

Altair 4 gets there first and finds a spot in the middle of the sunshine

Good landing, losing the engine (again) this should support a crew for 60 days, based on 30 days fuel cells and 30 days using the solar panels

Going for a precise landing

Off target...

We landed 11 km from the base, but we brought wheels

There we are! our new home for 30 days

All systems are looking good. The idea that the fuel tank will protect us from the sun is wrong. 2 storms radiate the crew

Liam is going to his home

Here he will consolidate the systems in preparations for upgrades

Ditching the old station

On the surface we do a 50km EVA to 2 other biomes

Mountains are tough

Got it!

Getting ready for the night

Cold and dark

We have a crew of mechanics getting ready for the new station

First up is the transfer stage, which is a 7m TLI stage, capable of pushing 70t to the moon

From the smaller launchpad we need to send a coffee resupply to LEO

On the moon 30 days have passed and we want to go home

We can use the descent stage for the first time for a couple of seconds

Lander is performing fine

Love the view

Approaching the docking adaptor

Finally the new lab launches

Docked with the transfer stage and TLI

It has its own insertion tank that will be used as a radiation shield as well. It can store liquid H2 and O2 that we want to switch to in the future so we have a optional fuel depot in Lunar orbit

Polaris 5 is send to automated docking

Vega 18 is used to raise the orbit of Capella 10

And a supply ship is used to match velocities

We move over the supplies and radiation shields

Then we dock the stations to transfer the data

Lots of cabling is transfered

Alexander moves over the solar panels and many instruments

Vega 18 brings the crew of Polaris 5 home, Capella 10 is discarded due to poor radiation choices

This crew should be able to stay here longer. Supplies last over a year

Heading home

RP1 Patch of the Day: Real Scale Sea Dragon

Sea Dragon is an amazing mod and I struggled to get it to work in RP1 for a long time. It feels balanced with the current patch and they show up in the tree. However, a land launch takes out the 2M$ pad and  a sea launch leads to a crushed rocket due to FAR.

1970 Part 2 To the Moon, to stay

An exciting year with tons of missions, including a new station, a long duration moon project and the glimps of the future.

Spoiler

First up is the maintenance crew. Cloe Frimaut (P), Valentina Yankovskaya (S), Alexander Hoffmann (E) will spend 100 days in lunar orbit to prepare for the new modules that are supposed to be radiation proof.

Lorenzo Fernandez (P), Robin Kuipers (E) pay a visit to LEO to rotate the crew and provide Valerie some company who is approaching her first year in space. Two more to go.

Eva Larsen (P), Elene Eikina (E), Ann Johansson (S) head for the moon to practice precision landings in preparation of a better base

The block 4 lander has even more delta v and a bit more supply

The third stage had a bit fuel left for the insertion

Landing begins, good matching of inclination

Descent begins 450km from target at an altitude of 65 km using the Scott Manley calculation.

Landing within 100m of Luna 15

Fuel transfer from the spare tank to the descent stage, should we walk to Luna 15?

Neah, we brought a rover. This thing has spent 7 years on the surface of the moon and the solar panels are completely gone, but it seems to have fuel

I wonder what would happen if we hook it up to a power supply?

Whoops

Ehm ground

They will spent 2 days and drive 13 km

The rover is parked for some cinematic shots

There is quite a bit of fuel left. We now have 2500m/s for descent where 1800 is the min

The CM stage has also been enhanced, we prepared it for more inclined rendez vous

Another oldie. After 4 years Canopius 10 arrives at Vesta

It gathers significant data and the ground team discovers that the other satelite in orbit had its transmitter shut down. A ton of science rains down in ground control after it has been activated

The crew does the usual skip rentry

Getting ready for the second pass

Meanwhile the orbital crew returns on Polaris 5. Some images of the construction seems to be lost. but the new lab is completely radiation proof

A recovered photo of its launch

A fast probe to Uranus

A moon rocket for a deep space probe seems overkill

Departing at nearly 20km/s it will reach its destination in 3 years

Next up is a new moon base, using a RL-10 Lunex lander frame. In preparation of the switch to a hydrolox eco system around the moon

Good insertion, the lander can put nearly 7t on the moon

Use RCS for deorbit

Balanced thrust is nearly impossible, RCS is not enough

And there goes a very expensive HAB, the ground team starts working on a new landing system

 

Edited April 15, 2021 by MacLuky

[Spaceman.Spiff]

What was the last thing?

[MacLuky]

I wasn't finished editing but the kids needed help ;-) it was the new base module. I seem to have lost some screenshots. The station around the moon got replaced by a new one that was pushed there using a 120t tug. This thing is massive since it has nearly  maxed out shielding

[MacLuky]

I am contemplating a fresh start on 1.10 or 1.11 with a multi-site game. Kind of what if rather than WW2 an extra terrestrial signal was located, would it not improve unification rather than war and accelerate space travel. But first Mars... I've done red planets on Kerbalism before but this thing is way more complicated

However scene changes take up to 2 minutes, its soooo slooooowwww

[MacLuky]

1971 Part 1

We choose to go to the moon, to stay. And figure out how to survive when heading to mars.

 

Spoiler

Early 1971 Canopius 11 arrives at Jupiter with nearly full tanks. A small burn aligns the plane with the moons.

Spica 2 has a new landing system. Based on the proved LMDE rather than the RL10

Very difficult landing, the landing platform gets destroyed but the hab survived. We have too much thrust in the final stage of the descent and not enough RCS power. The drive to Altair begins

Swing by Europa

Very close! it will take nearly half a year before the next encounter

Next up is the lab, but with a new engine arrangement

Targeted landing using the Scott Manely burn time calculation

We can stage off engines if we have too much thrust

Landing on 2 engines, 12 km from the target

Getting off the pad is difficult

After a 2 hour drive we arrive at the base

For now we dock with the hab. Altair still has 30 days of supplies that can be used in an emergency. The plan is to turn it into a shelter

Spica 4 launches

Now we have 4 engines and a thrust balancer. One failure on the J2 means we cant do the inclination change. we need to wait 25 days before the base is underneath us

Spica 4 is a rover and a nucluar generator

Great thrust allows better killing of hor velocity, hopefully we can be more precise

I can see the base

Someone forgot to turn on the brakes and the rover has no avionics, lets hope it doesnt wanders off.

Fresh crew to keep Valentia company. She has been up there for over a year.

Liam O'Brian (P), Francesco Verne (E), Judith Pesquet (S) will be the first crew to SAMBO: The Stephen Adams Memorial Base of Operations

Grabbing the lander. The Block 5 has an upgraded CSM

Coasting to the moon

Time to go home,  these rotations are short missions

Using the transfer stage to capture

The base is in the shadow, so they will stay at the station for 14 days

Mechjeb is docking the CSM, the LM is docked manually simultaniously. Mechjeb is faster .

Course change, will pass Neptunes moon too, we could get within 500 MM of pluto but no encounter

Time to go for landing, we can use a push down

Using an empty supply rocket for the deorbit burn

Descending to base

Going back up, we want to be closer

Another hover

Touchdown, 70m from base

Using the rover to get the rover

Lets see if we can setup the reactor here, keep the radiation from the base

Reactor fails, we need 100kw cooling not 4

Driving to the base

This is a great vehicle, that can keep us alive for a long time

And its solar panels power the base. The lander is slowly losing power for now. The fuel cells will boot up when we leave

Parking spot

Getting into the lab

This will be the new base, we still need a supply module and the power situation needs to be fixed

Love the airlocks

After 10 days they go for a 2 day excursion to the major craters

Love the IVA

On the way back they pass the Spica 3 lander, there is some fuel that we could salvage.

1971 Mayhem at the Moon

Explosions and expansions, the moons of Jupiter and a crew in jeopardy.

Spoiler

The Mars window opens up and we launch 2 rovers to seek out possible landing sites

Mars 4 with a working engine, which will seize to work after the mod update

And its backup Mars 5

The rover uses a new delivery system and better power management

Meanwhile the crew of Polaris 7 gets ready to return. With the night fall power levels are dropping beyond what the base can sustain. Hopefully the next mission can fix the powerplant

Powering up the lander

And lift off... 

The crew meets at the station and will spend another week before returning

Traveling home with rock samples

The new Pe is 65km and seems to work fine

Landing in one pass

Polaris 8 is a new crew transport for LEO capable of 5 crew

The Taurus-0L needs a bit of extra oemphf to get off the pad 

One engine fails, avionics fail things are not looking good

Feedpressure is too low to make orbit. The C1 will not make orbit. Cloe Frimaut (P),  Alexander Hoffmann (E), Eva Larsen (P), Elene Eikina (E) will re-enter in the ocean

Due to delays in R&D the Mars6 recognisances orbiter designed to scan for resources will need 2000 d/v extra

The new booster addition seems to work well

But detaching them takes some of the wings with them

Approaching orbit, look at the huge kick stage, originally designed for Jupiter probes

Mars 6 is en-route

A resupply mission (boring)

The backup of Mars 6 becomes Luna 24. We forgot a fairing half though.

Luna 24 will start with mapping the earth, then head to the moon

Meanwhile Canopius 11 begins its orbital ballet. It will swing by several moons after a small plane change

 

First up is Calisto

It will be used to change the plane of the craft and boost the orbit a bit

Passing very low over the surface

We will have another encounter in 2 weeks

The last of the Vega class crafts heads to the Luna station

Part of the mission is to install new Vacuum scrubbers

Polaris 9 is the second flight of Block C. It uses a re-designed second stage, still under 700t

This time Eva Larsen (P), Elene Eikina (E), Liam O'Brian (P) get used to the craft

The new stage works just fine!

Orbit is achieved and we have 4 days of supplies before we return

Ablator gets really hot. Why is this capsule less capable than the Mk1? I should not have updated deadly re-entry. After 4 attempts they land safely

Second pass at calisto

Next stop Ganymade

We still have an old probe in orbit of Vesta. Why not try to land it?

No throttle means it is hard. fortunately we have unlimited ignitions

Final descent on RCS, slows us down just enough

To safely land and deliver a crapload of science

Polaris 10 heads to the moon on block B5. A new lander that can house 3

Eva Larsen (P), Elene Eikina (E), Ann Johansson (S) release the lander after the TLI

This is where we discover the whimsy solar panels. "Uh command, this is not going to cut it, we are losing power quickly."  

As the craft speeds away a decision to scrap the mission must be made quickly or face the consequences. Elina goes outside to extract the solar panels on the lander that think they are still in the fairing.

That still is not enough, "Power up the LEM" Eva decides to shutdown the CM and move over. That will reduce the power strain.

It works barely, we won't need the CM until re-entry though.

The view is quite different

And they get pulled out of their seats during the correction and insertion burn

The rest of the spacecraft functions nominally, they end up at exactly the correct inclination to land at Sambo

The ship will be abandoned and will need to be powered up after the mission, that means the LEM must do the rendez vous. Some batteries are locked as a precaution.

The new lander design feels slugglish

We are landing 21 km from the base.

The rover is put on auto pilot and takes 3 hours to get there and pick them up.

Finally! but now we discover Elina has lost her tools. She will need to go to the base to fetch some

Ann will start doing science

Elina adds the food reserves to the base

And fetches the radiators, while crashing a solar panel on the rover

Lets hope this works

They drive up to the powerplant to mount the new radiators that each have 50kw of cooling power

There, this should do the trick, now lets get to the base and power the reactor

I'm sure that will be enough right?

Entering the night, we will see. Mission plan is 90 days on the surface

Oh, another moon

Setting up another node, Europa in a few months for 158 m/s

What if we could get to mars faster? Canopius 18 tries to slingshot around Venus to get to Mars

Without a fancy calculator, its just try and see what happens

And .... its on its way. At least we will get a flyby. Doesn't look like we can kick up the orbit enough

Spica 5 is a storage container that allows for larger base construction. It's not completely full because it would be too heavy. However supplies can be transferred into it

Good insertion, we will need to wait for the base to pass under us

The sun is back, it has been brutal. Altair 4's old power cells had to be used to make up for the loss of power, we need at least one more nuclear generator

Elena runs an experiment with old fuel tanks, we might make a fuel depot here

Adding those to the lander

And getting fuel from Spica 3 descent stage that was still sitting nearby

We are having a great time

There, that starts to look like a nice depot (the kraken will eat it though)

Spica 5 starts to descent, plenty of fuel

Forgot to detach the engines, it would take for ever to wiggle it in place

Again some deployment issues, but the solar panel works, it is time to remove the wheels of the lab and hab

If we could find a way to connect Altair 4 to it..... We can probably drag it in place with the rover

Proud arial shots

But with the second night approaching it is decided to head home as Polaris 10 is coming overhead soon and the dv margins are slim

The reduced weight should help though

Lift off. Now our rover is 21 km from the base....

Orbit and rendez vous achieved. 

Same juggle. The lander will power the main craft, only switching on avionics when needed

Keep everything pointed at the sun

Slowing down

Transfered to CM, thanks LEM!

Final launch if 1971 Polaris 11 will be an unmanned test of a new lander, using direct ascent

6 F1 engines power the first stage, 6 J2 the second

The transfer stage can also capture, this is unexpected.

A descent stage handles the inclination and deorbit using 3 RL-10 Lunex engines

Killing horz. velocity over target.

Final descent

Just before touch down the stage is jettisoned

Well okay a bit too high up

Great precision landing and we think we can get home. It will stay for 150 days to test boil off

Altair 4 explodes without any reason, this is bad

Mars 4 and 5 have arrived at mars and are put in an equatorial and polar orbit.

So is Mars 6, it will act as an relay and scan for resources where the landers may land

1972 Part 1 Getting ready for Mars

We are aiming for a 1975 manned mission to Mars, with a test run in 1973 which means we must crank up production and learn what it takes to survive in outer space.

Spoiler

The crew in SpaceLab is approaching the 3 year in orbit event, but are running out of Lithium Hydroxide (why are they still using those scrubbers anyway) Capella 19 is the resupply

Next up is Polars 12 which will add new scrubbers and rotate the crew that keep Valerie company

We could use this engine on other designs too

Francesco installs the new scrubber

And they rotate the crafts out, returning home in one of the last Vega class 

Still working fine

Next up is a new reactor for the moon base. We lacked power the last time we spent the night and with two reactors we should be good,

A new lander design and a prototype cargo rover that will also be used on Mars

Landing of the spider

Touchdown 2km from the base

Detached and heading towards the base, we crash the lander frame to clean up

It will be parked near the power plant, the next crew can put it into action

After Europa (forgot to take picutures), Io comes around making Canopius 11 the first craft to swing by all of Jupiters moons

At 170t Aquarius 1 is the first part of the Mars mission. It has fully shielded crew and command centers and carries a year of supplies and 3200 m/s which should be enough to return to Earth from Mars

It is launched on a Taurus-0E with 6 F1 engines, 6 J2 on the second stage and 2 on the third

All systems operational. Although.... we seem to have boil off despite lots of layers

Polaris 13 is another moon lander based on the direct ascent design. Goal is 1 year at the moon surface, if they succeed

Landing burn using the discardable descent stage

Landed 2.4km from the base

Rover picks them and 120 days of supply up and drives them to the base

Lorenzo will need to move the tanks first though

It is noticed that power will be a problem, so one of the solar panels is transfered

At the base the supplies are added to the main reserve

And 4 regolith drills will be used to create shielding, though very very slow

Polaris 14 is a maintenance flight to aquarius

It carries cargo like the early Rigel craft did

Since some idiot made a mistake the panels need to be shifted. It takes 2 astronauts to do this

Next up are docking procedures and mounting of the radiators

Working together at a rotating ship is not easy

This is where we picked up a nasty spin

But they get the job done!, no more boil off

Back at SAMBO we see serious boil off on Polaris 11, it is decided to test the ascent profile

If you spent 100 days on the surface you may get back up, but not to earth. Polaris 11 is crashed for science

Robin collects some of the surplus radiators to prevent a similar event on their return craft

Its a tight fit on this rover

a slow and tedious drive

But no more boil off!

Once Mars 6 had completed mapping the Martian surface it was time to descent.

Slowing down takes a lot of dv

But the craft is up to the task

Getting there

Touchdown, only to discover that the decoupler was mounted upside down. The rover can drive and do science, but has the skycrane attached.

Mars 5 heads for the south pole

We steer towards what looks like ice

Landing ! this time the ground crews send a software patch to the decoupler, turning it into a separator

Fireworks

Science!!! and lots of funds (we need those)

As the night falls we notice that the mod updates of simple logistics and kerbalism do not play nice togetether, 

Robin saves the day by linking SAMBO directly to the power station. There must be a better way

Luna 26 hopes to provide that, as we are scared of using nucluar power due to radiation

This will bring a 11 ton battery and solar substitute for 16 days of power

Approaching the LZ

Lowering so the rover can leave, I like the new design, it performs better.

It will take three astronauts to move these into position

Soon, solar tower 1 is up and running bringing 4,5 M units of electricity online and a ton of food.

Its great to work together (but a hassle)

SAMBO base is up to 2.7 out of 71 shielding the team may not survive a year. Perhaps we should build a radiation shelter.

adiation shelter.

Yes.

Or.... maybe ship down some shielding? I know its heavy but probably easier than landing a whole module. 

Or are you unable to transfer shielding? I haven't tried it.

You can’t transfer shielding, and Kerbalism runs on an average value across the vessel so one or two heavily shielded modules won’t really help if the rest is lightly shielded. Joining it with KIS hoses that can be switched easily from ‘docked’ as one vessel to ‘undocked’ as separate vessels would be one way around that, though I haven’t actually tried it myself.

[MacLuky]

Thats a great idea. I could have saved a bit off weight on the Mars transfer vehicle that way. I thought of undocking and redocking when in storm, but it seems like a lot of work. KAS tubes might be a good alternative. 

Btw you can transfer regolith.... but you would need a lot

Hello There!

I was recently searching for new mods to put in my RO/RP1 game and I found out your patches for the Sea Dragon. You seemed to be having some trouble getting it right so I tried to improve it and I think I have something very close to real numbers.

Here's what I did:

Kept original Mass of all parts (They are good)
Kept your fuel mixture, thermal patches and costs
Took away engine throttle control (Didn't find anything about throttle control so I guess it never had any)
Made all engines pressure fed
Switched Auxiliary Thrusters to hydrolox (They work from launch to orbit as TVC for second stage and overall roll control), plume needs update too
Balanced tank volume using stage burn time (and guessed 3rd tank)
Removed ModuleCommand  from first stage engine and added to first and second stage tanks
Added RP-1 Avionics support
Added plenty of eletric charge to support avionics and recovery of first stage
Tanks now use "Tank-Sep-AlCu-HP" definition (Closest definition to Aluminium 2014)


With these changes I was able to get a Gross Mass close to 18000t, 2:1 TWR and enough Delta-V to put 550 metric tons in LEO. This was my source.

Here they are:
RO only

Thanks @Karin I think I used integral steel which is too heavy. I like your approach. Didn’t your launchpad xplode?

1972 part 2: getting ready for Mars

After a "dad-build-me-a-minecraft-server-please-hiatus" back in Space. We run a number of missions to prepare us for the Mars window and solidify the Moon base. We also show what should have been the SeaDragon, but is an even bigger monster.

Spoiler

Our slingshot manoeuvre is not paying off. We can get a significant boost, but not enough to reach Mars or any other planet. Mission control will have to be content with what the new instruments gather

We did demonstrate that we can boost the orbit, its just that Mars is in the wrong place

The day has finally come for Valerie Pearson. After having spent 3 years in LEO she and Francesco return home.

Slightly too many G's for such a fragile body

No matter, she is back and will probably retire soon

Aquarius 2 launches on a Leo-A class rocket. This monster weights 10113 tons! towers 124 meters with a 20 meter core. Its first stage has 10F1S engines and 8 UA1205 boosters. Followed by a second stage of 2 M1 and is insanely expensive

The boosters actually run a few seconds longer than the core stage

Leading to more fireworks

Pushing onwards

Those are really expensive engines

Precise delivery of a 450 ton payload. The autonomous MTS vehicle. Capable of pushing 90 ton and capture it in mars orbit

Dock is complete

It also carried a detachable supply container, what a wiggle!

Next up is the base. It needs to go now so it can drill up shielding for 2 years and be isolated when the team arrives

Its not that heavy, so that the capture stage can also be used in crashing eh landing it on the planet

There's redundancy for the redundancy

Meanwhile Jupiter 1 arrives at its destination and starts plotting an orbit to one of the moons

Capture!

Liam Leia and Anton head out to MOONPORT for one year deep space radiation sickness test

After TLI

The new craft is very elegant

En route to the station

Housekeeping

Cloe and Alexander can return on one of the last Vega rockets

First flyby

This yields incredible amounts of science

Home again

Going down

Spica 6 is the storm shelter for the moon. Digging up regolith is taking to long for the massive base.

Nice decoupling

Fairly standard approach

It is one heavy capsule

Overshooting target

But we have wheels

It will be a long drive

Arrived. It will be parked in the vicinity so we can get in there fast.

Funny little orb

supply to leo

Refill of RCS was needed

As for the moon port

We should update this craft with new tech

On final approach

Docked, the moonport is thirsty

Dropping garbage back to the moon

Mars 7 is the rover that has to find water, ice and regolith for the base to land

Normal taurus D

Familiar lander design, but it will need a push to get to mars

This is the MTS stage for the base

Note the improved staging

One big engine

Docking is hard

But completed

Storm hits the moon, lets see what this thing is made off

Looking good!

Arrived at a moon where we can capture

Not really close

Transfer stage for the rover is a trimmed MTS

The Taurus-1F is based on the new HG3 engine so we can improve the ignition rate. It also lifts 200 ton

Docking without a hitch

Next up is the MAV Mars Ascent and Descent vehicle

Including the capture stage and not enough dv. Someone in enginering must have been sleeping

 

Edited June 7, 2021 by MacLuky

[MacLuky]

Almost there and 100 days to the mars window. But I fear that in 2 years most of the tech will be obsolete

[IV_Aerospace]

Forgive my ignorance, but how do I go about changing the configs and adding the above information? Is that all info for one config file or separate part files? I'm new to this whole business of editing configs, but would really love to try this mod out
