With a little of order, the lesson could be done almost without problems... I can say it, because i had high school teachers (specially my History/Geography/Citizenship Ed. teacher and my Spanish Grammar/Litherature teacher -i should say, THE BEST teachers ever i had :D-) that had a different...

You're correct! :P Selon this image taken form here: The 5 1/2 segment SRB lenghts 192.5 ft or 58.67 meters. Other info: look at the base of Ares 5: It shows the skirt and the diameter is the same of the stage. Some interesting images here :P And a PDF with the Specs of RS 68 here :P Good...

Your answer was given by sf4ever with the YouTube embedded video. Your mesh is 12.8 meters in diameter... the problem? The engines' skirt. The tankage diameter is correct.

5 1/2 (5.5 if you can't read an hybrid entire+fraction number) Solid Rocket Boosters! Other observations: - The Ares 5 2009 Edition has 6 RS 68B engines, your Ares 5 only has 5. - The Ares 5 2009 Edition first stage tank is 10.17 m in diameter not 12.8 m (information given by MeshWizard) -...

5 1/2 SRB...

Whenever the Centaur be not crushed by a superFAT Orion :P I'll prefer the Atlas 5 551 over the Delta 4H. The reason? Price. How much costs an Atlas 5-551 or a Delta 4H?

My opinion is a little complicated: For the Orion missions, my preference is DIRECT, but slightly modified for allowing heavier payloads (a fifth motor in Jupiter 2(4+1=5)1 or Jupiter 2(4+1=5)6/7 or two extra SRBs, with these two solutions i pretend closing Peter (eh Michael :P) Griffin's...

Ultra Stupid question... How does Santa for entering ISS? He docks at Harmony? :P Enters at Quest? :P Or maybe at Pirs or Poisk? :P Again: Merry Christmas!!! or mejor dicho FELIZ NAVIDAD!!! :P

In development by me: See the attachment :P My development includes (until now) The Cygnus PCM, the Taurus 2 Rocket and the Transporter-Erector-Launcher in Wallops/MARS Space Center. Possibly later i'll add the Cygnus UCM.

What version? First versíon? 2007 Version (8.4m tank, 5 x SSME/RS-68B)? 2009 Version (10.4m tank, 6 x RS68B)? I want to do an Ares 5M (Taking the Ares 5 2006, use 5 SSME AND 4 4-segment SRB instead of 5 RS 68B AND 2 5.5-Segment SRB). :P

If politicians don't attemp to sink the project... yes. An example: If the international cooperation wasn't more efficient/cheaper... does ESA exist yet?

Touchdown points? You should define 3 Touchdown points, so SC3 can put the rocket on right position. Read the SC3 manual :P

But the trip to Mars neighbourhood IS the challenge. I rather prefer a series of little jumps before goind directly to Mars. Before going there, there is A LOT of things to learn.

But i don't believe that Obama has enough time for finding this forum :( 4000? I said 3999, i'll go first to Liberia (AARC-CR division plantel) to burn a plasma rocket... it's nearer from my house (80 km) than NASA headquarters (How many kilometers there are from Nicoya, Guanacaste, Costa Rica...

Error found... See the quote for the solution :P

But first you should dismantle the entire agency. Put in it people that REALLY WORTH and REALLY LIKE space exploration and ONLY AFTER THAT, give the money :P

A little question: what modules will you implement: the original design ISS modules (with Rassvyet being the SPP, other two TKS/Nauka-like RMs, the CAM and HAB modules) or the current ISS ones (will you implement the RSC Energia's plan for beyond 2015?)? Will be possible implement the two plans...
