Ships from Literature

The spaceship 'Galileo' gets its shuttle ready to explore a habitable moon of a gas giant of a distant star.

The 'Galileo' is featured in Allen Steele's novel Spindrift. This is a simplified model of the websites cover shot, using a standard DeltaGlider as shuttle and Donatelo's Upsilon Andromedae as star system.

The EASS Galileo is using its fusion drive just above the atmosphere of a gas giant, slowing down its speed to rendevous with a potentially habitable moon. The large ring is not a centrifuge, but part of the futuristic 'diametric drive' which allowed the Galileo to travel with a significant fraction of the speed of light between solar systems.

The EASS Galileo low above Phobos. The ship's shadow is visible on the ground below.

Nice, you have a base upgrade there.

Nice, you have a base upgrade there.

Works perfectly in 2016. Just remove the surface tile included.

Some of my pics !

Hey, I want to post some pictures too !

And I did that two weeks ago, I dont know why.

EDIT : En route to my first interplanetary voyage, in direction of Saturn ! :O

Look at the size of this thing!

XR-2 dwarfed by XR-5 in LEO

Arrow Freighter class Gaia MK2 made it to Saturn !

Wow I forgot how big the XR5 was ! Good pics. :thumbup:

By the way, I MADE IT ! :woohoo:

Thank you Holy Probe !

Gaia MK2, the Arrow Freighter build by Spacetech for the Agence Spatiale Francophone finally arrived to Saturn after 5 years of voyage !

And it is my first successful interplanetary voyage with IMFD, the other one was with a DGIV to Jupiter with the vanilla Transfer MFD.

Here is some pics !

I am so happy right now. :lol:

I seem to remember the XR5 being affectionately referred to in the past as a space whale or something like that. It's the inspiration for one of the 3 spacecraft ideas I've been tossing around in my head recently called the Orca. Going to need to get some sort of CFD package working before that one becomes a reality though.

A small flight for you, a milestone for this noob

Nothing to write home about, but here are some pictures of my first close-encounter with Mars, flying the XR2.

Taught me a lot about TransX, much more than what I thought I had understood doing Earth-Moon runs.

Proper Mars landings are still a challenge though :rofl:

Were the Delta-glider (stock, XR1, DGIV), XR2, and XR5 even simulated in CFD?

Haumea with ring, according to latest discovery.

 

[boogabooga]

How did you get the ring?

 

[T1234]

I used anim8tor ring script,set the length to zero so the texture is uniform.The transparent texture is not recognized in orbiter so use some emissive then copy/paste ring then flip normals.:thumbup:
