Francis Drakes CEV is used in some of the scenarios of my 'Crew Transfer Vehicles v0.96' add-on. You don't actually need it for this add-on. As for the rest of your question, from my faded memory, and looking at the Add-on descriptions on Orbithangar, I would install the files as follows: 1...

Here's one for you Andy44 :) I've just uploaded to Orbithangar an early release of my Jupiter V-X launcher. http://orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=3672 Cheers AndyMc

I think I'll take your advice. However as the Jupiter V-X is basically complete, though not quite ready for the 'Dyson' (the fairing needs to be a bit bigger) I'll release it shortly, set up for the same payload as the Jupiter III-X (around 240Mt), which while overpowered for it can easily send...

The Jupiter V-X launcher a follow-on to the Jupiter III-X, is based on a proposal by Teamvision. My version has a 14 Metre core and no upper stage. Included for launch in this release is a launch-configured version (payload mesh) of the Mars Crew Transfer Vehicle 'CTV-02-A'. To see this...

Progress so far - More surface and texture detail added to the main Orion Nuclear Pulse Spacecraft 'Freeman Dyson'. The Crew Escape Vehicle has become a lot more detailed than I originally planned and has become the major part of the work over the last week. The trouble is knowing when to stop...

Hi All, I just came across a reference to this on the Nasaspaceflight.com model building thread. http://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=1806.615 and thought I'd share it. http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/3d_resources/index.html It seems that recently some more models (and textures)...

All mine except for the Shuttle Tank, which I adapted from an earlier version by 'DaveS' AKA 'Orbiterfan'. I used this in an earlier launcher - the Jupiter III-X which is still avalable on Orbithangar. I think 1000t is doubtful with what I estimate masses to be - pure guesswork really. I can...

Yes you are missing something - See bottom page 41 of the PDF, Quote - "In fact extending this concept even further in to a four SSET Jupiter V configuration integrated around a new 14 Meter ICES core and main/2nd stage engines a LEO lift capacity of over 1,000 mT could be achieved." I've a...

Here are a few links: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Orion_(nuclear_propulsion) More detail in PDFs at the bottom of the above page. http://www.teamvisioninc.com/downloads/AIAA-2006-7517-146.pdf 2006 AIAA Paper by Teamvision inc (includes Pictures of Jupiter III)...

Hi All, Its been a while since I posted anything. In fact I think it's my first for the new forum. Anyhow... I was reading up on some of the previously classified documents regarding the Orion Project, and noted that there were plans to launch a smaller version on 3 x (100t) Saturn V (first...

Mars For Less - by Mark Paton, Bruce Irving and Andy McSorley, including Crew Launch Vehicle by Antonio Maia - Simcosmos. The Mars for Less (MFL) Reference Mission, developed by Grant Bonin, is basically Robert Zubrin’s Mars Direct architecture, but divided into smaller components that can be...

NOW UPDATED TO CORRECT 'ET TEXTURE DEFECT 'AND MISSING MULTISTAGE2 FILES. The Jupiter III-X launcher is based on a proposal by Teamvision. My version has a 12 Metre core and no upper stage. Please read included documentation for further details. Included for launch in this release is a...

This mesh is my own version of the SHADO Moon Hopper or 'Moon Mobile' from Gerry Andersons 1970's TV Series UFO. It is intended to complement the SHADO Moon Base I built earlier in the year, so if you haven't already installed it you can get it here...

Space 1999 Hawk. Just unzip directly to your Orbiter folder. Only one basic landed scenario is included. Even though the Hawk  has no landing gear, it sits about a metre off the ground. If you have Moonbase Alpha already installed, the Hawks position in this scenario should put it on Pad 3...

This is v1.0 release of the SHADO Moonbase from Gerry Andersons UFO TV Series from the early 1970's. I've also included an additional Base called - Marsbase-Straker, which is made from the parts of the the Moonbase, plus a couple of other pieces. Some screenshots here...
