Project Poderosa Lunar Lander

[fausto]

Well, it is not so far.. there is a window when the mediterranean sea is in the right position for TEI .. It's a matter of orbit adjustment!

 

[Urwumpe]

Yes, but shouldn't you then need a long maximum lift reentry for getting there? AFAIR, the moon ground track is about 3500 km away from the MS in the minimum.

 

[fausto]

We will have to correct re-entry path of course.

We're working on the final version, the manned mission to the moon!
Here are the astronauts: Vittori and Nespoli!

 

[the.punk]

They look cool. Will an lunar eva be possible?

 

[fausto]

Yes! Nespoli will walk on the moon, Vittori will remain on the Poderosa II command Mudule! We are thinking about a space EVA after the TEI! Nespoli is going to make some experimets on the moon and to put a little rover on the surface!!
