KSP Mars Ultra Direct: Ludicrous single launch to Mars in Real Solar System

[@Katniss218]

Damn, old RSS was just a kerbin rescale mod? All the textures look like stock. Things have changed...

I applaud you for having enough insight to realize that. Everyone else who comments on it says "That's not RSS that's Duna". But yes, this was one of the earliest releases.

You can almost hear the CPUs cries of happiness as each stage drops away!

[@charles-antoinemartel-roy]

Not really, but maybe the GPU. If you think THAT was handled by a CPU, ha..haha...hahahahahha

[@NavyGuy2OO7]

KSP currently is very CPU hungry, Unity 4 makes more use of it over the GPU.

[@charles-antoinemartel-roy]

Not for particle effects and PhysX calculations, which is what would make the game lag in this situation.

[@NavyGuy2OO7]

Normally you'd be right but the problem is that Unity uses the CPU for physics calculations more so then the GPU. Add that and the 3gb ram limit for Unity 4 32bit and you are looking at waht has been the bane of KSP players for a long time, that's why 1.1 has been so hyped up.

[@ltcuddles685]

+Charles-Antoine Martel-Roy Yeah no, they don't use PhysX for Physics calculations in this engine, it's CPU based. And as the other guy stated this is a problem that the KSP community has been dealing with for a while now considering all the limitations of the engine until they update.

And then there is me, struggling to send space ship into Earths orbit.

[@newbonko]

I can't even hit orbit... I just send space ships (if they can be called that) into the deep dark of space

[@animepotato3631]

what you need to do is simply get a shit ton of liquid fuel for the orbit stage, and you need also boosters to get you over 120000 mtrs, then once you are there, simply point the nose of the bloody rocket to the earth's orizon and activate the liquid fuel, and then keep doing it until the tragetory gets on a orbit. Also, and orbit is only an orbit when the ship isn't going to hit at any point 70000 mtrs or less, this is a sub-orbit. Also, to get back to Kerbin, you are going to need a small Solid fuel booster, use the flea if you are still on the initial stages. Because after some time on the dark, cold orbit, the liquid fuel freezes and you will find yourself stranded on orbit without a slight chance of coming back. (Also use a heat shield under the command pot, its really useful)

Eon nothing is impossible. Mankind shouldn’t let reality limit its imagination. We need more space programs to push our civilization to the deep space.

[@winged]

Eon you are completely wrong. RSS resizes stock planets to the real sizes so delta V requirements are very accurate. The most unrealistic things here are mass requirements for habitation and consumables. But there are mods to keep them real as well. With all of the realism mods you will end up with 2x the mass of this rocket on the launch pad. This is about 10 Saturn V launches. Obviously the rocket shown here would never be used, it would be divided into many smaller launches.

[@winged]

This rocket wouldn't but two times heavier would be about right. Look at the NASA DRA 5.0 - the total planned launch mass was about 26000 metric tons ( 8 Ares V launches) - so that's two times heavier than the rocket shown here.

my problem isn’t the rocket structure i build i either run out of fuel or i can’t understand how to do a burn or periapsis or whatever it’s called i just eye ball it to the mun each time

[@BKnight_]

matthew turner Create a manoeuvre node by clicking along the line that's your trajectory, check how long the 'burn time' is and start your engines when your "time to node" is exactly half your burn time. For example: your node is 60 seconds away, your burn time is 20 seconds. Start your engines at 10 seconds away from the node. If you do it right, when "time to node = 0s", you'll be exactly halfway through your burn. So, in this example, 10s left on your burn. You don't need to do more than that. Encounters are the same thing, you've just got to create the node.

[@BKnight_]

@Alpha Centauri Shit, I always assumed that was a mod. I'll check it out later on, cheers for the heads-up. 700 Hours and I'm still learning new things.

Rip Ozone layer. it was nice knowing you

[@JohnnySins-tk5rl]

Ozone layer is more affected by aerosols than fuel emissions, it's greenhouse effect that the carbon burning gives us.

[@Fresh_Biscuits]

you should check out what is emitted from rocket fuel... because im almost positive its not CFCs and mustard gas or whatever lol.

[@holyspacekraken1733]

Ya, if anything it probably just left a small ozone hole above the ksc, which would probably be of benefit to the kerbals, free tans for everyone!

[@captainflamflam4220]

Holyspacekraken 1 Yay! :p

[@andregon4366]

Isn't rocket fuel made of hydrogen? If so the CO2 emissions would be 0 since when hydrogen burns the only emission is H2O.

jho419 just had that huge heat shield

[@paulvangemmeren9351]

NOTE: In the video, the time is warped to 4x during re-entry. *3,500 m/s* slows to a *complete stop* in approximately *48 seconds.* Therefore, the capsule decelerates at a rate of *~73 m/s2* . Given that the cabin would have a mass of about *1840 kg* , the overall force required to slow the cabin to a complete stop would be approximately *134 kN* . In short, no. He is not a wizard. He's a mediocrely-powerful car crash.

[@69way3Emp]

[@asspukeshit]

Maybe he had re-entry heating disabled or it was bugged. He shouldn't have survived re-entry on Kerbin at the end since the Mk.3 capsule doesn't have a heatshield of its own.
