Yes, I did make a mistake by claiming that Mars is our nearest planetary neighbour (23:21). My apologies. Venus is our closest neighbour, about 37 million km closer than Mars (by semi-major axis). Let's say that I meant the closest planetary neighbour THAT WE CAN LAND ON. Because Venus surface is hell and with currect technology it is completely inaccessible for crewed missions. Please, there is no need to call anyone a moron, we all make mistakes.

First of all: this is WAY beyond my feeble KSP skills! The amount of thinking, calculating, planning, iterating, practicing...it's OBVIOUS this took a MASSIVE amount of work and...just PASSION! TRULY a work of art! But...I hope you know that this will NOT be the way Humanity gets to Mars. If we haven't been able to get to Mars yet using Dr. Robert Zubrin's Mars Direct mission architecture (needing only TWO launches per crewed mission of his proposed Shuttle-derived Ares launch vehicle - and that only having a TMI capacity of 47 metric tons) - or Mars Semi-Direct (needing only THREE launches per crewed mission) - or haven't even been able to launch SLS yet after 9 years of development (and just delayed again - to 2021 for its maiden flight) - which of course will only be able to launch 26 metric tons on an Earth-escape trajectory - well...you know. So, we'll assume that what's portrayed in your video - again, TRULY a thing of beauty! - is occurring in an alternate history timeline! ;-)

That's exactly how I treat the KSP career save in which I flew this mission - an alternate history timeline (that started by Apollo spacecraft NOT being retired in favor of a boondoggle Space Shuttle in the 1970s). This is what I truly love about KSP RSS/RO. I'm able to create my own fictional timeline, where dumb politicians do not change NASA's crewed plans between the Moon and Mars every couple of years. Where Boeing continues to be a competent aerospace company that ultimately develops the first reusable rocket (Ares I, predecessor of Ares II) or where Ares VI (my SLS equivalent, also developed by 'better' Boeing) is designed to actually launch hardware into deep space, instead of being a massive jobs program.

How you described it would likely be the way to do it on a real mission. However in KSP this would actually be harder to do, since there was almost no way to precisely steer and 'dock' the 14 ton storage module onto the trailer while it swinged in every direction. My way of doing it was just navigating around the game's and robotic mod limitations. Also not having a docking port on that trailer lowered the part count a bit.

@Lewy94999
4 жыл бұрын
When launching from Earth I was only focusing on getting into proper low Earth parking orbit and then getting a Mars encounter. Once the landers left Earth's sphere of influence, I planned out a course correction that cleaned up injection maneuver inaccuracies and brought Mars surface impact location close to the landing area (within 500km, MechJeb's landing autopilot has a landing location prediction function). Usually that first correction happened 130 to 180 days after launch. After completing first correction maneuvers, I planned out a second set of course corrections, 40 to 30 days before landers arrival on Mars. Then a third and final set of corrections, just after each lander entered Mars' SOI. For first and second set of corrections I used MechJebs Landing Prediction, for the third set I used Trajectories Mod's much more precise predictions to fine tune landers landing point to within 20km from the targeted landing site.

@Lewy94999
4 жыл бұрын
Thanks. Rover parts are from a mod called Capsule Corp. Endeavour (Mars Base Camp). Most of the new engines I added by creating new variants in existing RO global engine configs (located in GameData\RealismOverhaul\Engine_Configs folder). So my F-1C variants are attached to F-1B global config, AJ23-242's use AJ10-190 config, MDV engines use SuperDraco config and J-2X-x use, well... J-2X config. This method saves a ton of work, because it doesn't require making new base part, RO part, RO global and plume configs for entirely new parts. But it only works for engines that are similar in size (mass can be adjusted per engine variant in global configs). For STME and MTV nuclear engine I created new parts that utilize existing engine models. STME uses RS-25 (SSME) model from SSTU mod, but I made new base part, RO part, RO global and plume configs for it. STME variants could work as attachment to SSME global config, but I wanted my STME to have several upgrade variants and I didn't want to clutter SSME config too much. Nuclear engine uses BNTR model from Chaka Monkey and it also needed all new configs.

Thanks. The 70 tons for combined ascent/descent vehicle assumes no ISRU. It would have to be launched fully fueled and that would be too heavy for either the Ares IV or the MTV (I also didn't want to fiddle with Mars orbit rendezvous). Launching it half empty, bringing it to Mars with the MTV and starting ISRU after the crew has landed also wasn't an option. I have a rule which states that no one lands on Mars, unless there is a fully fueled ascent vehicle already on the surface.

@Lewy94999

I think the cost would be comparable. Saturn V MLV would have three stages: MS-II with 5 J-2S engines, MS-IC with 5 F-1A engines and 4 solid boosters similar to those on the Shuttle (assuming Mars payload launch configurarion, for which MS-IVB wouldn't really be needed). My Ares VI also has three stages: EDS II upper stage with 2 J-2S+ engines, Core Stage with 7 or 6 STME (SSME derived gas generator engine) engines and two boosters with 2 F-1C (modern F-1A) engines each. F-1C and J-2S+ engines are also used on a smaller Ares II rocket, so a large production rate of those engines would lower the price per single engine. As for the MEM. I decided to split Mars descent and ascent between two vehicles, because a combined descent/ascent vehicle would have launch mass of 70 to 80 tons. Ares VI payload to Mars is 65 tons. And MEM would have to be launched fully fueled, because it wouldn't have time for ISRU propellant production, if it would land crewed.

@@Lewy94999 Then that makes sense too however the development cost of Ares family rockets might make it more expensive.

Surely a failure during descent means no way for a ascent abort, resulting in a crew death.

@@FeverDev64 Descent Vehicle has 8 landing engines, divided into two sets. One set is mounted higher and is angled slightly, so that it can perform a deorbit burn, when the heatshield is still attached to the spacecraft. The other engine set fires straight down, but can only be activated after heatshield jettison. Those engines are pressure fed and use hypergolic propellant - all for simplicity and higher reliability. Should anything fail, Descent Vehicle can land with as little as two active engines, as long as they're on the opposite sides of the craft. Also, there are 3 sets of parachutes: a primary set and two backup sets.

Click that, then choose 'training' tab in a window that shows up. You'll need to do proficiency training first (can take a very long time, but never expires) and then mission training before each flight. You can also disable crew training entirely in RP-1 difficulty settings, if you want.

The mod is called AlphaMensae's Modular Launch Pads. I still use an old version of it, because I'm on the older KSP version. For more recent KSP versions (1.7+), there is a newer version of this mod - Modular Launch Pads v2.

The thrust to weight ratio of all those launch vehicles... Yikes. Very cool video though!

trust me, launching low twr rockets with low delta-v margins is much more fun than regular rockets

Thrust to weight ratio was around 1.2, so pretty standard for realistic rockets.

1. LH2 is one of the "undensiest" rocket fuels that needs extra large tanks (Hydrolox density-Isp ratio is 2 times smaller than kerolox, despite having much higher Isp) 2. Yellow stage in order to be semi-reusable must have extra dry mass (for extra engines, weighting +-2-10 tons each, unseparable 2 of 4 massive tanks) 3. Payload weighs 40+ tons, similar to 2 joined Apollo spacecrafts 4. This stage needs to perform interplanetary transfer and orbit breaking TWICE, in sum more than 11k dV
