RSS, Ranger's Space Station

[RangerPL]

Alright, so I've decided to build a new space station mostly because I forgot about the HAISS and don't feel like reviving it.

RSS
Orbit: 600x600km
Space Agency: The Ranger Space Agency (aren't I creative?)

Vehicles
XR2 Ravenstar
Manufacturer: Altea
Role: Crew flights and light resupply

XR5 Vanguard
Manufacturer: Altea
Role: Station construction

Boosters
Energia
Manufacturer: Energyia
Role: Booster for XR2 and for station parts

Missions
Mission 1
Vehicle: Energia + DM-2 Tug
Station part: Mir-2 Core
Not yet flown
Mission 2
Vehicle: XR2
Station part: None, first crew delivery
Not yet flown
Mission 3
Vehicle: XR5
Station part: Cassiopee SM

I'll probably fly the first 3 missions tomorrow. First, I have to get used to the XR2.

Mission 1
The Energia launched in the eastern direction from the launchpad at Bad Salzuflen, carrying with it the Mir-2 core, the first part of the RSS to go into orbit.

The core was placed into a 200 kilometer orbit, where it will be intercepted by the next flight and boosted into a 600km orbit.

I'll upload the pictures later.

The next launch will be an XR2 meant to deliver the first crew and to boost the space station.
