Well, I'm sure someone will land the X-15 on Duna sooner or later. In seriousness though, BDB already has a lot of parts that are perfect for Saturn V Mars mission architecture, and some associated surface excursion infrastructure would be amazing.

You know, there are US Mars projects you could do. You have some catching up to do if you decide to do them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Integrated Program Plan time? Would definitely close the gap, and the MEM would be amazing. We could even make Apollo-Soyuz 2: Martian Boogaloo Edited September 6 by Legolas5533 Clarity of text Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolted up I used to read and look at all the canceled soviet space projects when I was a little kid, and all the mars ones stood out to me, I wondered how it'd look in real life. Now I don't have to, thanks to this mod I can actually see how it would've been, and that's just amazing. This feels like a childhood dream fulfilled, thank you for this.

Beale Posted September 10 Author Share Posted September 10 You can preview some of the shiny stuff I have been working on with the latest branch: https://github.com/Tantares/Tantares You will need the (now released) mod "Resurfaced" and "Shabby". Only a handful of parts converted so far. If anyone is eager to help I have a guide (skip down to config section) - I would of course be supremely grateful and look forward to working with anyone, but otherwise I will be chipping away at converting stuff slowly. https://github.com/Tantares/Resurfaced/wiki/Resurfaced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SheepDog2142 Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 Oooo. So when do you think there will be another full release pushed out or do you still have some plans to complete before then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
septemberWaves Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 I'm liking the new Mars ascent vehicle. It's probably not far off from how I might be inclined to design one, too; I think the Soviet design style is a major influence on my taste in spacecraft aesthetics.
