tswain Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 "Manley Station" And I have another big tank/engine module to add if I can every get it to top blowing up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Space Dino Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Originally just a lab with solar panels to farm science in my career save, but I upgraded it to be able to mine asteroids and convert it to fuel. Unfortunately I barely break even with the fuel needed to get the asteroid to the station in the first place so I'll probably disassemble it. I have not tried towing a D class asteroid yet though, maybe that will allow me to break even; any thoughts on that? Or would it be just a lot easier to mine on Minmus and have some craft deliver the fuel mined on the surface to Minmus orbit to refuel other ships The craft with a bunch of nuclear engines is the asteroid tug in case anyone is wondering This image below is from when I was adding an additional ISRU module to the station (with a smaller asteroid being mined as well) The station is named "Wet Sandwich Station" , honestly I don't remember how I came up with that but I like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misguided Kerbal Posted October 17, 2020 Share Posted October 17, 2020 Voyager Station! This was actually made before the KISS. I just... forgot about it I guess. Spoiler STATION!!!!!!!!!!!! Spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirThoreth Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Not my first station, but the first time I've successfully done a rendezvous and docking with one (after 469.6 hours of game time!), which I'm sure has the stranded Tomney very happy, since he can get home now...

DunaManiac Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 A small space station called Starlab. Starlab began it's life as the Deep Space Zero G lab, launched as a single launch space station. It's original mission was to study the effects of Zero G on kerbals, which it turned out to be practically nonexistent. Spoiler Starlab was visited by a spaceplane, the Eclipse, which crewed it, and the rest of the 2 years aboard the space station passed by uneventfully. The space station was visited once again to decrew it, and the space station was reorganized awaiting the addition of new modules. And such, 7 modules were added to the Deep Space Zero G lab, renamed Starlab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunlitZelkova Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 IOS-GP-1 (International Orbital Station-Guinea Pig-1) was the first international space station. It was launched in December 1976, and was the second and (for the time being) the last cooperative spaceflight between the US and the USSR (the first being the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project). It has dockings ports for Soyuz and Apollo CSM spacecraft. It is in the shape of a guinea pig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just imagine how it is to work there doing researches and space review for such giant companies like NASA or UK Space Agency. By the way I'd like to know tools you used to create this project.

maddog59 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Denali Station at 200km - the ring spins while the science and docking spokes remain stationary, and there's a dozen drop ships for rescue and/or orbital activities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 My newest creation on sandbox (I Had To Get It Into Orbit Using Cheats Due To Lag I Play On Xbox For Now) i plan to do it properly when i get my new pc which is coming soon.

Misguided Kerbal Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 My new fuel station, the KOFD. Attached to the bottom truss are 2 ANTS nuclear tugs. Spoiler Honorary Mention: My Interplanetary vehicles. KSP classifies them as a station, so I have to go manually change them each time. Ugh.

SiriusRocketry Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Bifrost Station, in 135km Low Kerbin Orbit (JNSQ) Docked to the closest nadir port to the camera is VTS-24 'Kounesso' one of the KSSA's expendable autonomous resupply vessels.

PigeonThePilot Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) The Aroma space station. I'm really proud of it since I didn't use mechjeb to make it. it currently has 3 modules and the current modules dont have that much docking ports, so the next module that ill send to the station it gonna be more of an expansion module, it is currently 100km above Kerbin.https://ibb.co/1RDZJTh Edited March 2, 2021 by PigeonThePilot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like the end of it is opposite the base of a fairing? How did you get that part to stay attached after deployment? And are these all stock parts?

I think that @The Doodling Astronaut made that arm to imitate the arm which holds the antenna receiver on a large radio telescope style dish. The open fairing half resembles the reflecting parabola half of such a telescope or antenna. He can correct me if I'm wrong. In a newer update to KSP they added the ability to leave fairings open ended during construction. I believe that when you have partially created a fairing in the VAB holding down "left-alt" while left-clicking will leave the fairing open and it will remain that way for launch until staged away. There should be a text message during fairing construction while in the VAB which clarifies this. Edited March 2, 2021 by HvP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunlitZelkova Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Lunar Gateway around 2027. This was based on one image and reading off the descriptions of the modules on Wikipedia so it is not 100% accurate. The lander is based on the ILV from the National Team. Within to history of my game, Lunar Gateway is actually the second lunar space station, built to replace the 1980s vintage OLS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormpilot Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 (edited) Here we have: my small micro station, a small ship (the one with the poodle), and my newest creation (which is largest than the station). The station is called SSIV but the big ship is unnamed. Any ideas? (P.S you cant see but im in a 100km orbit of kerbin).

You may want to consider coming up with a set of themes for your different types of vessels. For instance, my satellites are named for precious stones; science bases are named for scientists; stations are named for mountain ranges; orbiters (i.e., atmo-capable ships) are named for avians; transfer vehicles (non-atmo) are named for literary characters, and so on.
