Hey Bloodworth,
I think I'll try to revive it this summer. I had planned on working on a few things for it over the last few months, but real life had other ideas. I'm still slowly poking at pieces of code for an NTR propulsion module probably launched by a Quasar unless there's something better. No idea how the rest of it would go, guess that depends on how much enthusiasm there is come mid-June.
For the propulsor, I need a mesh for it and have no skill whatsoever with modeling, and so much of its payload is up in the air that I have almost no specs to go with, just a basic idea of electrical management and propellant boiloff.
Absolute requirements are:
- Mesh for a propulsion stage (bimodal NTR + prop tank + payload adapters)
- Mesh for a Transhab-type module to be fitted on one end to the propulsor, and a LIDS port on the other for the lander, integrated ECLSS + communications paraphernalia.
- Lander. Skycrane, DRA surface module, who knows? What do you guys want? What can we as a team create?
- C++ help a-plenty.
Optional:
- Launch vehicle. Preferably very large and awesome. If not, no big deal, there are plenty of nice LVs already out there.
- Surface equipment. Experiments, rovers, what-have-you. The more the merrier.
This is just a rough outline to give you an idea of what would be very very nice to have someday.
