    My Jovian Tour Challenge (300 + 300T Jovian Tour)

    Read about this challenge, you know, a trip to all Jovian moons and back with just 2 launches, limited to 300T each. Many people said that it's doable using ion engines. Thing is, I wanted to prove it. Or, more precisely, I wanted to see what could be achieved with ion engines and a 300+300 Tons...

    The REAL Grand Tour

    Simce I was a child I've felt fascinated about the Voyager Program. A trip around the four outher planets and beyond, in a 45 years long mission that's still ongoing? Wow. That's the epitome of heroic space exploration. So I want to recreate it. But it won't be easy. First of all, the Voyagers...

    Question about fairings

    I have a question about fairings. What difference does it make if the "detach edges" mark is active or not? I can't see any.

    Team Hawk Entry 1/3: Replica Challenge (Ariane 4)

    As I promised yesterday, here's my proposal for the Replica Challenge. I feel here are too many Ariane 5s and Falcon 9s replicas already, so I opted for something different: the ARIANE 4. More precisely, the Ariane 4 44L, the most powerful version of the rocket. I also chose the version with...

    My Team Frontier entry 2/3: Mars mission (with my brad new Ariane 4)

    The point is, I've finished my first BP edited rocket (wich I pretend to submit for the Replica Challenge): the Ariane 4. And I think the best way to try it is to accomplish the Mars Mission with it. Call me a European chauvinist! I'm not going to enter in details about the rocket itself, as I...

    My Team Frontier entry 1/3: Voyager

    Let's start with the Voyager Mission! Here's my rocket. I decided to stick to the old limit of 250T, as I think it's more than enough (indeed, the total mass of my rocket is 248.23T). My rocket has two side accelerators and only two stages: I prefer this configuration rather than a pile of 3 or...
