that is just super looking to see this launched and then deployed

Some progress:

 

[francisdrake]

With the solar panels rolled up, the heat exchanger wings folded-in and the reactor boom retracted, the SpaceReactor fits into the extended (18 m) fairing of a FalconHeavy.

Is there room for the Aero shell

Is there room for the Aero shell

Have to check, but I am optimistic.
Will look into the size of aeroshells of the current rover missions and probably scale it down a bit, as the helicopters are quite small, compared to the rovers.

Texturizing. Found a place for the aeroshell. How does a space reactor look?

The hardest part (MFDs with their button labels) is over. It's left to make animations for control surfaces and gears.

My Artemis2 flyby. this is in Orbiter2024. I may need to update the it.

I'm also looking at Multistage2026 (with fear), I have a lot of work to do but time is elusive, sorry community.

I guess The ICPS needs updated also. Add those dock targets. I suppose add dock info to it.?

 

[gattispilot]

So I redid the meshes and added targets. But not sure if I can add docking info to the SLS. It is ms2015

Nothing to dock to. All they did was fly around it for a few hours, they did not dock to it. No docking hardware on Orion or the ICPS.

So just visuals? Makes it easier.

After being released from the SpaceReactor vessel, the AeroShell and the Ginny-helicopter are on their way for entry, descent and landing.

Off the shelf F-22 test while working on vulkan port

Blue Origin Landers. I have seen images of modified MK1 when ability to unload cargo,......

Looking forward to seeing the Flex rover deployed from the MK 1

LK-1 - Chelomei's 1960s proposal for a manned lunar fly-by mission. This project never progressed beyond the mock-up stage and lost out to Korolev’s and Mishin's competing design, the 7K-L1 Zond - which, like the LK-1, was adapted to use the Proton launch vehicle. As a test spacecraft, contrary to many other Chelomei's designs, the LK-1 was also quite impractical—it could not enter lunar orbit as Apollo 8 did, and it was incapable of docking. However, it served as the starting point for the development of the more advanced LK-3 spacecraft, which subsequently evolved into the better known LK-700.
