One of the fastest achievable plans to send humans to the lunar surface. (It's not gonna happen)

@angeld23_ @Starship_block3 Clearly because of the music!
jk, the gameplay is fun but its also shit at the same time
English
@oilylayschip @Starship_block3 Thats all fun, and that's why I love ksp. Until you have to deal with all the bugs, the kraken and crashes

@drecos__ @Starship_block3 The fuck are you talking about? Engineering, planning, testing, practicing, executing. That gameplay loop is extremely fun.

@BanhmiBrieoche Here's my idea of what could happen
1-Mengzhou does an Artemis 1-like mission.
2- Lanyue launches, lands and returns to lunar orbit, if it's successful,bthen send a MZ to rendezvous with the LY in LLO, possibly crewed, doing an Apollo 8,9&10 in one mission
3-Crewed lunar landing
English
The language here does imply these are orbital missions not just flybys but I'm also wondering if theres wiggle room for a demo landing. It sounds like no demo landing because they're just described as orbital, so just MZ-LY docking exercises plus one standalone Mengzhou?
Ace of Razgriz@raz_liu
According to an interview to the launch specialist of Wenchang LC. During 2028~2030, China will do 3 times of unmanned lunar flyby missions + 1 manned lunar landing mission. No manned lunar flyby accoirding to this piece of news.

This is my current sollution
Skyfall is mounted on the side and a counterweight goes on the opposite end
Truthful🛰️@Truthful_ast
So like, what's the point in this design if Starfall literally cannot fit on it? Starfall can't fit inside the radiator section like some people think and side mounting it means offset thrust Someone help me😭

Australia and Brazil seem like the most likely choices for the first international Starship launch site.
Magnus B - Space Coast West@spacecoastwest
At the moment, international launch sites with the necessary certification to meet US lTAR launch regulations: - French Guiana Space Center (French Guiana) - Arnhem Space Center (Australia) - Space Center Australia (Australia) - Andøya Spaceport (Norway) - Esrange Space Center (Sweden) - SaxaVord Spaceport (UK) - Mahia Launch Conplex (New Zealand) - Alcântara Launch Center (Brazil)

@BootleSquared That's why Oryol isn't a russian value, but a western degeneracy

The Grand Tack is one of my favorite early solar system hypotheses, because it reads just like an epic story of old.
Why don't we have a "Hot Jupiter" in our solar system? Well, according to Grand tack, WE ALMOST DID, and Jupiter was on track to destroy the entire inner solar system!
That is... until Saturn stepped in, and gravitationally wrangled the mega-planet into an orbital resonance, dragging the monster back into the outer solar system, where it belongs, saving the Earth in the process.
