And something i should mention, the protection problems happened while entering from low Eve orbit so i assume that trying to land at interplanetary speeds would just destroy the whole probe. Good job on the engine by the way For sure okay, I will try to set up a entry as if flying interplanetary from Kerbin and confirm, thanks.

Delta dart Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 How about the Soyuz 7K-L1 moon flyby craft and its unmanned variant zond-3 and 4 it provides an alternate payload for the N-1. Or something a little more well known Buran and its less known jet variants able to fly longer and have more versatile landing options. I only know of one mod that made it and it hasn't been updated for the latest version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last one is from2020-08-04.https://spacedock.info/mod/174/Tantares - Stockalike Soyuz and MIR Or do you mean the parts in the pics above? This are still WIP-Parts. So you must wait for a new download. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't vote ,but curious as to the choice. Sure, here are a few: General overview https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phobos_program Photos https://swalker.org/deistvuushie/2559-muzey-npo-im-sa-lavochkina.html Russian space web http://www.russianspaceweb.com/phobos.html Ton of information and images (Russian text only) https://www.laspace.ru/projects/planets/fobos/ The more exciting thing about this craft is that the core "donut" would become the standard planetary probe for the Soviet union going forward (if it didn't collapse). It was used for Mars 96, and also had plans for missions to Jupiter, Venus rover, etc. Edited September 12, 2020 by Beale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beale Posted September 13, 2020 Author Share Posted September 13, 2020 GitHub Closing in on the complete Venera, behaviour of drogue chute is not well balanced yet, there may also be a couple of overheating issues in the sphere if not careful. https://github.com/Tantares/TantaresSP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clamp-o-Tron Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Totally unrelated... but Good Ol' Energia I tried to get the pad as good as possible, but modular launch pads only has so many amazing parts. Liftoff! @JadeOfMaar's plume party vents are glorious. Gravity turn into an 85 degree inclination orbit. Max Q. Core stage burns for orbit. I couldn't find any sources on how the Polyus was mounted, so I just put it on top as it didn't have any aero surfaces and wouldn't have to RTLS. Polyus separates while barely suborbital so the core will burn up. It flips around, the guidance system works (), and it circularizes. Now on orbit, the newly dubbed space station Not a Megawatt Laser unfurls its solar arrays, ready to provide Megawatt Laser capabilities to low Kerbin orbit.

davidy12 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Okay, I've got a bug here. I was trying to test out the new suits in Tantares and this happened: It's a jumbled mess. What's going on here? https://www.dropbox.com/s/vd6arwl2unv7m0c/KSP.log?dl=0 Log^^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gojira Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 TextureReplacer will do that to you. You have to turn off TextureReplacer's suit replacement feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
