Apollo moon landings recreated in KSP...

[DEADBEEF]

I apologise for the inaccuracies....

* Detaching the LEM from the S-IVB before docking the CSM.
* Not having seperate ascent/descent stages of the LEM.

These were limitations of the game engine / ORDA mod, although I'm working on it for version 2....

.


Plugins used:

* MechJeb.
* ORDA.
* Custom plugin I made which slows down time (used during launch so my computer didn't have a meltdown). Edited October 2, 2012 by DEADBEEF

using wing pieces to make an actual rocket body... both ingenious and amazing to look at. you sir deserve a jeb

[Martonaut]

I love the ship!, realy good looking rocket , btw what a strange cover for that song (firsto one)

[souza]

Awesome looking !!! Especially for the few mods you used really loved the vid, great job!

[AncientAstronaut]

Really good video. I found only a few minor inaccuracies, not including the ones you listed:

If you plan on making another one of these videos, here's what I have for you:

The skirt sep should not happen before S-II ignition. After you stage from the S-IC, the engines on the S-II should start and then a few seconds later, the skirt (that row of things covering the second stage engines) should separate. Then, instead of AFTER TLI (like in your video) the launch escape tower should jettison before you've even made Kerbin Orbit. And finally, deploy your lander gear while still in Munar Orbit before Descent Orbit Insertion.

Other than that, awesome video. Can you post the .craft file for that rocket?

Craft file?

Oh my god! Very well done, going to favorite this video. The music had me jamming, nodding my head back and forth - kudos!

[doggie015]

Wow... I never thought of using wing boards to clean up the rocket's exterior! GREAT job (Especially considering the limitations of the game itself!)

[togfox]

Wow.

And just when i started to think ive seen everything ...

[Czman007]

Wow, you even landed near the memorial, amazing! You deserve a reward!

[Aescwulf]

Wow that's amazing !

Also the whole community just realised to use wing parts to clean up their rockets :|

[wired2thenet]

Bloody brilliant!

[kerby1883]

Major WOW factor achieved! Great work using your imagination in such a fantastic way. This Saturn V is THE real deal!
