<packbart>
so, the idea of building a large space station from just an Orbital Workshop docked to an asteroid and some starter resources basically works. It just takes huge amounts of ore
<packbart>
I need to find a 3+ kiloton roid to make 100k MaterialKits
<packbart>
which then turn into 230 tons of space station
<packbart>
130 tons are already in the kit. that feels weird

built a Mars rocket, but now I have to figure out when to launch it, cause the fuel would evaporate if I waited in orbit.
<JVFoxy>
Darsie don't have anything like radiator or chiller panels?
<darsie>
hmm. no
<JVFoxy>
just watched Scott's vid on the proposed moon mission... ouch, 60t craft if going to use a 'gateway' station there?
<darsie>
my craft is 39 t.
<Althego>
yes, too heavy
<Althego>
at least the single stage version
<darsie>
for a relay to Mars.

I have that.

KCT uses it.
<JVFoxy>
so.. high elliptical orbit would cut down on delta-v needed to get to the station, sure but... puts a bit cost on surface missions
<JVFoxy>
ok
* darsie
does a test launch.

ok now I really wanna do those ksp videos been meaning to work on...

although.. scott did RO, and now I'm wondering if its worth doing stock still or switching to RO and testing things out.
<darsie>
I'd play stock before RO.
<darsie>
Maybe a few mods.
<Althego>
stock is not really realistic
<darsie>
It's a game.
<Althego>
sizes, delta v requirements, isps are completely different than reality
<JVFoxy>
I know stock is a lot smaller, RO makes it a very different game simply because of the scale
<JVFoxy>
its just.. I searched KSP videos on youtube, noticed quite a lot of them don't even have views. Makes me wonder sometimes if its worth it
<Althego>
hehe mine dont have views either
<JVFoxy>
I've a few already up, but set private...
<JVFoxy>
huh... 3 and 4 years ago, to videos I did still private. And one, I streamed for an hour from a year ago...

Well, one day, some one said to me, "Hey, let's mine the Moon for helium-3".
<UmbralRaptop>
Now you have two problems

So they started sobbing when I told them that helium-3 fusion isn't really a thing, and I wanted to cheer them up. So I took took my knife like THIS and made a new smile and asked them: "Why. So. SERIOUS?"

shouts angrily in LRO, LCROSS, LADEE, and GRAIL
<Scolar_Visari>
UmbralRaptop: Well, the articles were referring to new manned missions. Mind you, the proposals for the missions' architectures are due next month.
<UmbralRaptop>
Ah. Well, I guess we'll see with those.
<Scolar_Visari>
Yeah, I can totally pull out a design reference architecture in a couple of months. It'll be written on the backs of napkins, of course.

"As you can see on slide number 2, our concept depends on propellant depots in Low Earth and Low Lunar Orbit. Keep in mind that this crayon drawing is merely a pre-visualization and the actual tanker will be to scale with the stick figure seen in the upper left hand corner after our exploratory budget is approved."
* Scolar_Visari
severely doubts that the recent announcement will amount to anything.
<UmbralRaptop>
Yay for space robots, at least
* Scolar_Visari
warily eyes New Glenn and BFR/Starship
<Scolar_Visari>
Also, I've worked on it and I think getting to Mars will require, like, six propellant tanker rendezvous for a Starship.
<Scolar_Visari>
Why u no propellant depot!?
<UmbralRaptop>
Something something lunar mining?
<Scolar_Visari>
Lunar volatiles mining be more difficult than Mars volatiles mining.
<Scolar_Visari>
At least that precious, precious water on Mars doesn't hide.
<UmbralRaptop>
well, yes
