Request Dual-Keel Space Station addon (STATION REQUEST)

So not sure what I should do. Thinking a white tile for the body.,.....

 

[gattispilot]

So we get this. You can see the new airlock.

I wonder if the dock is too close to the front wall. But then you have to have a longer tunnel.

Something I noticed. If I was docked I got a CTD when I deployed the EVA guy. Not sure why. If I undock then the guy does find. Not sure if it has to do with docks and attachments?

 

[gattispilot]

We get this:

Oh it's beautiful!

 

[gattispilot]

Thanks. Right now I think I have the radiators and solar panels track. Camea and docking targets move in and out. I could have the mobile platform move side to side and carry the rms.

are you planning to use this for the hub of your duel keel station

 

[gattispilot]

I suppose so. DK is wider. I guess new trusses for the upper/lower parts. I can add the satellite repair part.

Not sure which dock to use. The framework one or just a PMA from ISS

Here is the 1991 and 1990 SSF. You got to have the ISS_HD meshes. Because of the framework docks only shuttles without ODS can dock.

1/2 move the dock target
4 camera

The other docks maybe wrong.

I have scenarios with just the space station and ones with STS2016. Not sure if SSV will work since technically there is no dock.

There's another version of the former Freedom station from 1993 where it used Soyuz capsules as ACRVs called Option A, which is shortly before Russian modules from Mir-2 are included onto the design.


The bottom image is a little weird where it placed one of the Soyuz attached on a Shuttle PMA instead of the radial ports like on the above drawing

I wonder if I should make FRED the 3 solar panels model.

Not sure about the centrifuge model. But sure I can add meshes Soyuz,...

But USE ISS PMA or structured. The structure limits which vessel can dock

 

[gattispilot]

FRED. It looks like the 1991 minus 1 solar panel panel. But the modules seem to be the same setup

I wonder where the shuttle docks are?

 

[barrygolden]

SSF looks really cool

 

[Gargantua2024]

I wonder where the shuttle docks are?

Around here (red arrows) they're located

Option A modules are basically two Harmony nodes attached on opposite ends, Columbus, Kibo and some early version of Quest. Destiny-like modules are noticeably missing (or it's just simply merged with the nodes themselves?)

 

[gattispilot]

Ok. So ISS PMA or framework like the 1990/91

 

[Gargantua2024]

The shape in the drawing resembles more of a modern ISS-PMA than the older Freedom framework

 

[gattispilot]

We get this. But need a soyuz mesh

i got you bro. its not perfect (im not really good at 3D modelling) so you may want to change some things, but its a soyuz!
(thats how it look like)

 

[Gargantua2024]

Those Soyuz ACRVs are planned to be launched inside the shuttle payload bays due to its planned 28° orbital inclination instead of 51.6°

 

[barrygolden]

Wanted to share this with you guys this was from the 1980's called the space Operations Center
this is from a 1981 National Geographic that cover STS 1 flight.

 

[gattispilot]

Interesting that in 1981 the shuttle looks to have a docking system.

So we get this. I can make this into a dll and if permission include the simple Soyuz. I think the module needs a docking ring where the Soyuzs are?
