Qwisoverse Logs: Advanced Colonization Effort

Current Stage: Mission Theories

(A light flavor of RP is to be expected here)

Last Update: 20 Aug 2013

Official Mission Statement:

Our requirement is to establish orbital and terrestrial colonies on key celestial bodies of the Kerbin System for the purpose of

furthered science, efficient manufacturing, and the overall wholesome growth and preservation of a hopeful species.

Estimated Mission Stages:

• Mission Theories- Come up with practical ideas for how to tackle this project. What are the overall goals and requisites for a 'completely colonized star system'? What modifications and parts packs are to be used? Consider generic flight plans, vehicles, stations, modules, etc ..

• Mission Research and Development- I imagine this stage will be all about the VAB/SPH and a metric kerb-ton of test launches. Determine and design the mission stages.

• Mission Staging (Active Deployment)- What 'flights' around which bodies. The 'map' of my stations and colonies. Detailed information on each station and colonization point.

  [*=1]Kerbin- LKO Transfer Station. KEO Comms Station.

• 
  [*=1]Mun- Colony Point. Orbital Satellite Scanner. Kethane Drilling Station.

Update Tracker- I'll keep an overall and a chronological content library of the posts I make in this thread and whatever related to this project.

Other Plans- I plan to livestream and get anyone interested involved in KSP! That is the main motivation behind this project. Keep your eye here if you want to learn and be entertained. Definitely leave comments/feedback/thoughts/ideas or whatever else you feel like. I'm juuuust getting started with all of this.

Interesting. May I also suggest KAS mod? Outside of things sometimes exploding when you drop them it is a very nice mod.

Giving a bump to say that I will be streaming soon- Sunday 25 Aug from 4:00 pm UTC-5 until I want to sleep some time after midnight.

I've spent long enough thinking about this stuff so it's time to start blasting Kerbals around in the name of science and exploration! During the stream I'll be chatting and I'd like to consider implementing some viewer designs in my work.

I'm setting a realistic goal of 10 viewers. Or 5. Or just a lot of random 'just checking in'. Regardless- keep checking this post for screenshot and journal updates of the streams.
