I've been running my own space programme within Orbiter for sometime now and I've been sticking to largely realistic vessels with the odd foray into the DG-IV for moon missions but I hit something of a snag as no vessels is powerful enough to loft the Cosmos addon.
So.. having a think about the best way to approach this I realised that by sticking to current hardware it really was an impossible task, modern day hardware just doesn't have the up mass, even using something like the Jupiter-IIIX didn't provide enough up mass and it was then I realised that something like Deepstar or Cosmos was to ever be built in real life it would require several space agencies to work together and so, within my orbiter universe, I've decided to form the International space agency which will be based on Ascenion Island.
This is NOT a VSA but just an extension of my orbiter missions and events from these missions will be featured here and on my website. I hope you enjoy the roleplay ride!
