Campaign: Kerbal Space Station
← Satellite Network | Campaigns | Joolieo → |
The Kerbals had a global network of satellites up and running. Now the public wanted a space station that could carry 10 Kerbonaughts into orbit. The Worlds top scientists from all around the world began to build rockets and modules in their quest to build what they dubbed the KSS. (Note this is a WIP)
Specifications Length: 16-20 hours Diffculty: If you did Campaign:Kerbals in Space,you can do this.
Skills: Orbit Mechanics, Completion of Campaign:Kerbals in Space.
Missions
Kroton-K Test Launch Build a rocket to carry a unmanned test module into orbit. After 5 stable orbits, de-orbit the test module. You may need RCS to bring you back to Kerbin.
Space Plane Test Launch Build a space plane that carries a unmanned test module in to orbit. After 5 stable orbits, de-orbit the test module. You may need RCS to bring you back to Kerbin.
Karya Module Launch the first Module into orbit on your Kroton K rocket. This should carry 2 solar panels, and carry fuel and have 8 RCS blocks to move the rest of station if need be. Launch the module on the Kroton, then deployed it into a low-Kerbin orbit.
Unity This a simple "hallway" that connects the Keveits/Kussians and the Kermerican parts of the station. Make sure it has a docking port. You can put 3 Kerbals in it, but you need a Hitchiker part to do so. Place it on the spaceplane you made, get it into orbit, then connect it to Karya. Your Kerbals can be on the station for a short time, then bring them back home to Kerbal.
Life Support Module Note: After this is installed, you can leave Kerbals on the station. Design it similarly to the Karya module, and put life support on it. Place it on a Kroton rocket, and dock it to the station.
Research station Bulid a module with room for Kerbals. Put half of the science equipment on it, and some dishes and attentane so the research can be transmitted back home. Load it up on the plane, then dock it to the KSS. Inculude a stack decoulper to detach from KSS incase of emergency.
Airlock This is the easiset. Just make a simple module with monopropllent. Then take a short space walk to see your KSS.
Research station II A glitch has been detected in the lab that caused the lab to detach from the station. Rescue any Kerbals on board, then send up your replacement lab. DONT put any stack decouplers and put all science equipment on it.
Docking station Bulid a module that has a dock for ships to connect to the KSS. Now you can have space tourists!
Power Modules Almost done! Now, you need 2 pieces to power the station. Build a module with 8 solar panels. Save it, lanuch it, dock it, repeat.
Epilogue
Now the KSS was so large, it could be seen without a telescope. Speaking of telescope... Astronomers wanted to launch space telescopes to study the distant planets and stars. Also, many wanted probes to land on the gas planet of Jool.
