On pic 4, from left to right-

W.V4L (Two Seater Civilian)

WA.V4L (Two Seater Military)

WA.V4 Bomber

W.V4 (Original)

W.V4 SL12 (Big)

W.V4M3 (SSTO)

W.V4 and W.V4 SL12 can fly without SAS!

The idea was to sprinkle in WW2 fighter design philosophies onto futuristic aircraft design. Sticks jutting out from behind in WA.V4L and WA.V4 Bomber are backward facing cannons lol.

My dad watched one of the first iterations flip upsisde down and crash immediately after takeoff and said sci-fi designs don't work irl and how this design will never fly. This post and people being condescending toward the OP reminded me of that, and then this fleet. I built it during the pandemic but never posted. Thought I'd post.

I recently started a new save with a rocket design philosophy in mind: "The simplest and easiest way is the best way to do something," and so this is the first lunar probe to land successfully.

The engines are from the Cryogenic Engines mod, and I'm using the "unkerballed" start; I like the progression of their tech tree.

From over 800 images that have been processed, I present the Voyager 2 Encounters simulated in Sol from Ballisticfox.

This video includes both Jupiter and Saturn with the Encounters happening at relatively the correct time in Realism Overhaul.

I performed the correct trajectory using the Titan IIIE Centaur with the Star 37E Kick Motor from BDB.

Midcourse Corrections were made with the tiny Hydrazine thrusters that the probe has, also courtesy of US_Probes mod.

Took a contract to save Edtop Kerman from low orbit. I obstructed the hatch accidentally with the parachute (these pea pods are so confusing), so I had the genius idea to tether his pod to my rocket and de-orbit it with a gentle burn. Then I would either parachute both of us or use his personal chute if necessary.

Well, I accidentally hit max throttle after I had already gotten a good re-entry and I guess that broke the tether. I urgently tried to rendezvous again and got Edtop out of the pod to connect to Valentina's.

...Then they both hit the upper atmosphere and started tumbling, and Edtop was attached to his pod (which I was trying to reel in) being swung in circles faster and faster until he went unconscious and burnt to death during re-entry. At least he wasn't awake to experience it.

Honestly I was so pissed off during this experience but as soon as Valentina splashed down I started laughing out loud. It was the most absurd death I've ever had in this game. I wish I had a video of it!

I used my mm-3-mk20 rocket which i posted here earlier btw does this vount as the north pole of minmus?

2 of the solar panels I broke while trying to get back into the Cupola using my Jetpack
Other than that complication, Shitef*ck Mk. 8 was largely successful
after the first screenshot, the rest are in chronological order

...now, I just need the funds to actually send it...

I just recently made a rocket that I was able to manually land the booster from. Now I'm going to attempt to automate that, so I'm learning kOS.

Following up on my post from yesterday, the first extension of the Duna orbital station is complete! This includes the lab and some solar panels, and a docking hub.

Droneship that delivered it has successfully splash landed back on Kerbin after completing the round-trip in around 3 years, and now awaits further missions.

Would also love help to make it work lol, but for now its just a showpiece i cheat into the sky to take photos. It can VTOL, but looses control after 5 seconds.

Inspired by a spacecraft shown in the game Signalis

Fewer than a hundred people set off today, aboard a self-sufficient rocket and an orbital craft, toward new star systems.

A mod-free build powered by 55 ion thrusters, energy generators, and solar panels.

The first DOD classifed mission flies onboard shuttle-C instead of the space shuttle, deploying a classified satilite.

This will also be the first use of the inertial upper stage originally developed for the crewed orbiter.

went to make an asteroid space station around kerbin and turns out the asteroid i found is a magic asteroid!

any ideas on how to expand the station? I already have a thruster and resource mining.

With Esa (Equine space agency)'s eventual withdrawal from the DODIS shuttle and spacelab program following STS-9, the agency would need its own way to get Equinauts to space.

A spaceplane referred to as 'Hermes' was already in development at this time, and the decision was made to presue it as esa's primary crew vehicle. The design was revised down a lot learning from DODIS's shuttle from a (still smaller) orbiter with a payload bay and 6 crew down to one carrying 3 and small onboard Spacelab style payload lockers.

Safety was of the utmost concern with early designs even including launch abort towers and/or a separating crew compartment. Eventually, after running tests, it was found that ejection seats would suffice with some changes to the launch profile.

The new Ariane 5 would, of course, be carrying it from the pad to orbit where it would sesperate and menouver under the power of an expendable service module.

After the third successful full up test flight, Hermes 4 would send a crew of 3 into orbit for just under a week before bringing them back down safely.

ESA's independent program had only just started.

How do i get out of this situation

Any idea why my fairing bends or slides during launch ?
