That's kind of interesting aspect, Bystanders: "yay, woopie... " -cheer Flight control/astronauts/directors/engineers/everyone involved "don't blow up, don't blow up, don't blow up, don't blow up..." Never really saw that side of rocket launches. :thumbup:

I see we are just rolling in the volunteers! Good job guys :beathead:

OK you realize normally to update GPU on most laptops requires tearing almost the entire computer apart? That is if you can. First place to start looking is the manual/guide http://support.acer.com/acerpanam/Manuals/acer/2009/ServiceGuides/SG_Aspire_5517_09172009.pdf I am looking through it...

Well, wasn't planning to but we sure can! :cheers:

Sorry, I didn't mean to imply that you where at all or anything against you, I guess 'stubborn' (for me) could be a better word Does this certain member start with a 'B'? :P

-Which is why its reserved :thumbup:

Isn't it fixed yet? It's downloading for me now.

2003 or 2010, whatever. I remember Urwumpe saying Earth-Mars orbits repeats themselves every what?... 2 or 17 years, something like that :embarrassed: So if it makes it feel better, you can 'pretend' its 2 or 17 (whatever it is) years from when we start Orbiter :) I am not really crabby about...

Please note: This is not all the modules we are bringing and working on, these just are the ones that are really 'going to be needed no matter what.' More will come I'm sure. This is a description and a difficulty analysis of the models/textures/config-dll developing. You are free to sign up...

Good points, I thought we where going for Ares V but it doesn't matter to me. The Space shuttle can only carry 7, if 8 are going, that means we need 2 shuttle launches, first - 2 STS crew + 4 MM crew second- 2 STS crew + 4 MM crew Also the shuttle is retiring, does anyone like being pulled...

Not at least for the first mission anyway. Mining might be the next step to getting goal 2 -independence from Earth, but I think it is stretching the difficulty of the project a tad. Iam going along the lines of the ALSEP where the first packages where not complete. If we can harvest Hydrogen...

Yes, I believe zero boil off is possible for cryogenic materials especially when you can hook a radiator directly to it while in space. The launch vehicle is not really apart of the project 'build' team, its more of a vehicle used. That being said, I am saving it for the final version with the...

NERVA2 uses LH2. Skycrane uses LOX/CH4. Yes that correct Since we are using most of the elements found on Mars except for hydrogen, we will need to bring hydrogen with us. The conversion has a 62:1 weight gain ratio (ie 1 kg hydrogen turns to 62 kg LOX/CH4 ) and it happens to have the exact...

SVTU works in space too ;) I thought Orbiter limited the number of docking ports, but had a much higher number of attachment points? Its the way to go. nah its cool :cheers: just bragging I guess :)

Kinda, the idea was a count down to the release of the (more) complete and thorough reference and roster. But given my limited time to actually have any 'fun time' (which this qualifies as such) It will take a little while to change the flight description profiles and whatever. -If your...

3+ votes for Carina. Good enough for me, ummm :censored: well I have to change the flight profiles again... :lol: Weight is not going to be a problem at all. But are we going to have it hanging on the side by universal cargo deck/attachment or something? Any other changes while I am adding...

True :) there are plenty of available sats already up and going... Fine with me you guys pick which one you want. :cheers: How about the small SVTU? Best way to transport units I think..

Is it? I thought it was com sat? It sure looks like it, and to be honest, isn't that good enough? :shrug:

Alright in the obvious support of the satellite, we will keep it. Question now becomes as Alex puts it, DGIV sattelite? or custom? Keeping in mind the DGIV satellite doesn't have propulsion so it will need to be brought to orbit by skycrane or while on route... hush you :P :rofl: Info: I...

Only limited to the speed of light :thumbup: Generally, I think with the com sat ahead over the target site would be best because it will have 100% communications time with the ground and >90% time with Earth. Alright last shot, included or not? wow posts moving fast now...
