[WIP] North American Rockwell Mars Excursion Module
Mar 18, 2016 · In 1967, the Space Division of North American Rockwell produced a design for a manned Mars Excursion Module (MEM) that has in the years since become somewhat iconic. It was included in Mars mission planning by numerous aerospace corporations as well as NASA over about two decades, including the Boeing Integrated Manned Interplanetary Spacecraft ...
[WIP] North American Rockwell Mars Excursion Module
Mar 18, 2016 · I've been playing for testing before attempting a real Duna mission with the MEM (renamed the DEM by me for Dunian Excursion Module). The decoupler between the two stages is very wobbly, makes everything explode, I tried everything, putting force separation down to zero, messing with autostruts configs, real struts...

Mar 18, 2016 · Update, I'm pushing out 0.22, mostly because I've completely lost track of where the published version of this mod is at. It's from April. I don't remember having weird nodes back then, but that's damned close to a year ago. There's mission module bits (unfinished) and so on, plus probably some tidy up.

Mar 18, 2016 · The original size (which you should get if you use Real Solar System + module manager) is a 5m diameter for the descent module, which makes it about 3.2m plus cargo shell. So I'll later be adjusting the framework stuff to try to match 3.75m. The seating arrangement in the ascent module suits 4 much better than a plain cone.

Mar 18, 2016 · Also, you'll notice why the ascent module was rotated before. The base RCS clips through the lab, and you'll then need to rotate the base instead of the ascent module. Just beware, it's best to apply the half conical aero shell pieces first.

Mar 18, 2016 · Testing in the newest RO+RSS (for KSP 1.2.2) using the latest version of this mod, suggests that the issue you may be having with RCS might just be clicking the Enable/Disable option in the part config for RCS, or that you don't have RCS hydrazine (all the pre-set tanks seem to have disappeared, so you need to add the hydrazine tank manually).

[WIP] North American Rockwell Mars Excursion Module
Mar 18, 2016 · Also, I've added a (not quite happy with it's lower edge but releasing anyway) shielded docking node for the ascent module. In some testing, because the colliders match the probe and drogue (concave cone, that drogue word gets over used), it …
Duna Excursion Module - Kerbal Space Program Forums
Mar 22, 2017 · The duna excursion Module will be at the tip end, which will be carried by Nuclear shuttle (1 in the case on STS, 3 stages in the case of Boeing). Upon arrival, the excursion module will detach (hence the docking port), then after using the de-orbitign pack, will enter Duna atmosphere (hence the bottom heatshield) and land with the help of ...
Annoying persistent "Hatch Obstructed" - Kerbal Space Program …
Mar 23, 2016 · I've been working on building a NAR MEM (Mars Excursion Module). My issue is that the moment I attach the base, the lab's hatch is obstructed. And it shouldn't be. At least as far as I can tell. I'm wondering if anyone has a really clear idea of what triggers the "hatch obstructed" message. I've moved a lot of colliders.
