Request Artemis landers

[Gargantua2024]

.. Can you post the scn. I will make the adapter a cfg vessel and add it

SCN and MS2015.ini attached below...I also modified the BaseSpaceX\Canaveral.cfg so that Pad 39A and B can coexist with each other during simulation

The guys are looking great. add stripes to the legs and the sunshields up while flying the ALPACA.

 

[barrygolden]

I did like the SLS launch and config looks great. legs need to be folded and it needs a space tug to place it into Lunar orbit. make note of the gold object docked to this early version of gateway. Its the OMV from the Shuttle days.
I still see this as the way to have the Gateway with 1 launch instead of 6 launches.

 

[Gargantua2024]

I still see this as the way to have the Gateway with 1 launch instead of 6 launches.

If they need to launch Gateway in a single SLS, then maybe NASA should've selected the Skylab II proposal instead

If I recall correctly, there's an existing addon for this station already, but built for O2010

 

[barrygolden]

yes do you have a link to that. can you do and SLS/Orion scn as well ? gattis did a modified octopus we called the docking module and a modified Orion called Eagle/Talon. He did a super job with both you can see this could be the start of a single launch Gateway with multiple docking ports. The Eagle has extra tankage to refuel of replace the drop tanks and the White tank could be a cargo bay to bring up new surface tools or supplies to be added to the ALPACA

 

[barrygolden]

The Apollo guys knew even though they had a open checkbook to land on the Moon that cost drove there decisions. these new NASA guys have forgot that. It will be hard to see this flying as is." See station Freedom." However this is on a decadal survey so the funding is set for ten years but NASA never has done what they say they can do with out massive cost over runs with the exception of Skylab

 

[Gargantua2024]

yes do you have a link to that.

Skylab II is included in this early version of the SLS addon also made by gattispilot

can you do and SLS/Orion scn as well?

Yep I could do an SLS/Orion scenario as well, but I think it already exists in the Space Launch System addon, albeit it is still named as Exploration Missions instead of Artemis

gattis did a modified octopus we called the docking module and a modified Orion called Eagle/Talon.

Looks like the Eagle/Talon resembles the current iteration of the Gateway's HALO module

 

[Gargantua2024]

I've been thinking that we should consider francisdrake's Project MAV - The Frisbee of Mars as the Boeing HLS, and the Altair LSAM as the Vivace HLS.....with that, we have now four HLS proposals out of five total

 

[gattispilot]

This is problem of making things in the future. They change.

Here is an adapter. Not sure about attachment point. I couldn't get it loaded.

Here is going to be another issue. We are going to have different versions. different crew,.....

we will get this.

. The other guy will be the same except for the red/white bands

 

[barrygolden]

Looks pretty spot on, looking to see it in the ALPACA

What does the SLS adapter do ?

 

[gattispilot]

It has red/green beacons. They just did not show in the snapshot.

I need to play around with the setting of the guys. May not want to see internal just external? Because it blocks the view and mfd,..... I just moved the mesh. The guy would have a backpack one

[barrygolden]

Looks super !! I did see with the last SLS /ALPACA launch looked like room for your LER might fit and replace the cockpit.

Might look at the HGA's folding up as well

 

[Gargantua2024]

Looks super !! I did see with the last SLS /ALPACA launch looked like room for your LER might fit and replace the cockpit.

That's part of the Dynetics design....intentionally replace the cabin with some other payloads for constructing Artemis Base Camp

 

[gattispilot]

Got the hga to bend.

now the array tilts, rotates around the arm. And the arm rotates.

I guess we need to go with one design?

I can make the lander without the Habitat. and then add an attachment for what ever is needed.

 

[Gargantua2024]

Sounds good....just need to add a new Reconfiguration for the cargo variant once the crew version of the addon is finalized since technically they have the same specs

 

[gattispilot]

yes. We would get something like this:

My fear is when the LER is dettach it will bounce

I think we are close to a final version? Use the new crew guys and moveable hga, beacons.

 

[Gargantua2024]

yes. We would get something like this:

My fear is when the LER is dettach it will bounce

Now we do now know how to put the SEV-LER into space

I think we are close to a final version? Use the new crew guys and moveable hga, beacons.

I agree, I think we really are close to the final version....the only integral part left on the Dynetics plan (I think) is the intended launcher itself besides SLS...the Vulcan-Centaur

 

[gattispilot]

Oh. Is there a Vulcan- Centaur mesh,.... If not maybe I can throw one together.
