I was also looking at this -> Abora_A and Selene_B version 2.0
which features a rather large fuel tank module.
For a 20 t payload, the Quasar 471 upper stage has about 6.3 km dV. I tried playing around with TransX, and with the May 13, 2018 window, I got a 6.5 km dV. I don't know how to reduce that.
That is for Orbiter 2003. It doesn't work on 2010.
Configuration file format hasn't changed much since 2003, so the fuel module should still work.That is for Orbiter 2003. It doesn't work on 2010.
Sorry for butting into this all of a sudden, I'm just wondering what is final. Is Cosmos the vehicle of choice? Do you need a DSV with UMmu?Then you've missed something. If you want to start a seperate thread about it then go for it otherwise I'm going to keep this thread on track with OFMM discussions. Suffice to say that *IF* the Selene tank is picked to be sent to Mars (and we are not there yet) any required config file changes will be posted with the mission.
Cute it is! Cosmos is underappreciated, for sure.I would like the Cosmos as I think the ship is rather cute and has a decent amount of dV to get to Mars and act as a fuel tank tanker (Think orbital aircraft carrier) but the decision was to go with the James Cook which I've not looked at in all that much depth.
