KSP - Project Orion Crewed Mars Mission
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 25 ส.ค. 2024
- Project Orion was a program which aimed to develop an engine for interplanetary (or even interstellar) spacecraft which used miniature nuclear bombs to generate thrust. Development stopped after the Partial Test Ban Treaty, which banned nuclear detonations in the atmosphere, underwater, and in space.

Main mods are Bluedog Design Bureau, Shuttle Orbiter Construction Kit, Photon Corp, Stockish Project Orion / Roverdude's Orion mod, Tweakscale/AllTweak and Conformal Decals for parts. Visual mods are TUFX, Scatterer, EVE, and the visuals included with KSRSS.
Song(s) Used:
"Come as you are" by Nirvana

Interesting how the orbiter changed from Challenger to Columbia from when they left to when they got back. Good work!
oops.....
@@TosteKSP I thought it was intentional, alternate history can be whatever you want!
Not a big deal. Besides, even with the Orion Drive, the Shuttle couldn’t be in orbit for the mission duration anyway. Best case for this tech that I know is a 40-day Earth-Mars transfer.
You even turned off the center engine on the Saturn, very realistic. You've really made a work of art.
Why was this done anyway?
@@l77mikks To reduce accelerations on the crew, since that rocket gets lighter as it burns fuel and cannot throttle down its engines so instead they turn off the center engine.
@@lunavil Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!
Videos like these make me believe we live in the golden age of KSP, also I really like the design of the lander
ksp is one of those games that will never die. with an active modding community, there will always be something new to do.
Even if nobody played it anymore I would still play it KSP won't die cause you it's special cause u can do so much stuff kind of like GTA but less serial killing
Based on the MAV concept for a 1981 Mars landing proposal.
@@clarkheredia5058 how many Kerbals make a adequate crush base
@@clarkheredia5058 it is a Simulator with Sandbox mixed in it
Apollo hardware existing around the time of shuttle hardware? It’s cursed and I love it! Stellar job!
If you think about it, the last vehicle in the Saturn family, a manned Saturn IB was launched in 1975 on the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project, ASTP, or Apollo 18. And the first space shuttle took off in 1981. 6 years difference.
But the last piece of Apollo hardware was the Skylab, which re-entered Earth's atmosphere in 1978/9. So we can say we have a 3 year gap between the last piece of Apollo hardware and the first piece of STS hardware
But in the 70's there were already atmospheric flight tests for the Shuttle. So we can say that Apollo hardware and STS hardware existed at the same time, being from the same era.
@@Cais_man I’m talking about fully operational manned LV’s, not some basic unmanned prototype of a space shuttle.
@@Zaca1349 So there are 6 years of difference, from a point of view, you can still say that they are from the same time.
saturn-shuttle was a proposal that existed
@@Cais_man It's not about the time but that they're both operating together since the shuttle was specifically made to succeed Apollo. It's awesome but it doesn't make sense as the shuttle (as we know it) isn't really justified if Apollo hardware and programs are continued and evolved.
wonderfully done! absolutely love this vid, great job!
also perfect soundtrack lolz
I hope that KSP2 works out so the Orion Drive can get the love it deserves
update:no it didnt

**sad Kerbal noises**
Definitely not
Amazing video, I love everything you about the video, the visuals, the plume effects, the mission and you have a space shuttle in there as well which is rear and is my favourite space vehicle so props to you, well done.
nice nod to the ending of season 2 of FAM
I love your work.
This is legitimately one of the best KSP cinematics out there. It’s so good.
I saw the title of the video and got genuinely excited
OMG SOMEONE THAT ACTUALLY USES GOOD MUSIC
Hey, would you mind if I tried to remake this video with more “modern” parts- e.g SOCK with the APAS-75, RMM SSMEs, Photon Corp boosters, KSRSS, and volumetric clouds?
This isn’t a promise;it’s just something I might try to do over the summer.
I don't mind at all, that sounds cool. Good luck!
Thanks!
Hell yea awesome music choice, definately inspiring the 100 subs video I'm working on, though it isn't this song, it will be lit.
This is great! nice video!
Grunge in space...........Tooooooo Cool.....
Amazing!
2 things to know about NASA. They won’t shut up about Orion or SLS.
Very good good job.... Also that's some mighty fine part finagling.
This is what mars could have been in the 1980s
So cool!
Great Video only thing you got rong was that Saturn v s-2 spage separation you kept the ring on the s1 stage of the Saturn V. Whenever it was supposed to be on the S2 stage and then dropped but everything else. Great video
Man this slaps
Man i cant believe that this is just a concept, its just how nasa how would do things if the soviets won the race to the moon, the soviets and americans would head to mars! This a pretty realistic way to show this since the americans were also VERY competitive so a mission to mars would make sense.
If you haven't seen For All Mankind yet, you should give it a shot. The whole show is built around the Red Moon premise.
400 subs great job toste
Great video...👍
Who else is only listing to the music
It’s sad to see that your video has 25k views but less than 1k likes
Amazing video! what is the mods for the mars lander?
Awesome! Would be cool if you could’ve sent the crew dragon and a mars ascent decent lander instead of the shuttle.
It wouldn’t fit the timeline because Orion drive was a concept from the 60s (and it was probably going to fly in the 80s or 90s, if ever). And I think shuttle is cooler.
SATURN V S 1C WITH SRBS!?!?!?
FAMK Vibes
Could you add a craft file or a parts list for the lander. I really like the build you did a great job
0:17 "come"
hell yeah
New sub
I wonder the G forces put on the crew were during the engine 'burns'... even if they were low it's still a stop start thing so you'd be constantly thrown around
i mean the suspension system would dampen things a bit, but you would still be going from 0g to like 2g on a pulse cycle lol
What are the mods for the crew compartments?
Now _this_ mission is what i call absolutely epic, legendary, awesome and BASED. I kinda dislike the first song tho
honestly great job, what TUFX profile do you use by the way?
I used a custom profile for this video, if you want something at least kind of similar I would suggest Palette by Emilius, which you can just search up and download
All the EMPs when it was leaving Earth...
Looks like you forgot to fill Challenger with extra crew so that it could return after the Mars crew boarded
How did you get that shuttle? It looks really nice! Also, what mods do you recommend for rss? The stock engines are too weak for rss iirc
The shuttle mod is Shuttle Orbiter Construction Kit. Also, this is KSRSS, meaning that it is only 2.5x the size of the stock system.
you can use "free IVA"
Wow, someone else uses KSRSS! I'll have to give those Orion mods a look. Are you running any life support mods as well?
Yeah, the orion mods are pretty cool! And no life support, I just used the stock mechanics for this mission.
bro whats you mod package looking like and what version is this?
Version is 1.12.2 and main mods are Bluedog Design Bureau, Shuttle Orbiter Construction Kit, Photon Corp, Stockish Project Orion / Roverdude's Orion mod, Tweakscale/AllTweak and Conformal Decals for parts. Visual mods are TUFX, Scatterer, EVE, and the visuals included with KSRSS.
Wait…you aren’t suggesting that the shuttle sat up there empty and uncrewed for like 100 days?
My assumption was that in a mission profile like this, the shuttle would launch with a full 7 crew members and 5 would board the transfer vehicle to Mars. Then, the shuttle would be piloted down by the remaining 2 crew members like on STS-1 and 2. To bring the crew home, the shuttle would launch with 2 crew members and return with 7. Not sure if it would really work but that's how I justified it in my head.
@@TosteKSPohhhhh ok. Makes sense!
Я так понимаю музыка в начале видео это отсылка к сериалу ради всего человечества?
Just went to go watch the launch this morning..But it was scrubbed 😞…Oh well better safe than sorry.
more like this
Amazing job! Side question: How did you get the Space Shuttle engines to have those nice plumes? The ReDirect engines I use look almost fluffy, even with Real Plume.
Waterfall mod
Photoncorp for SRBS
Oranges for Tanks
Restock for Main Engines + Cryogenic Engines (for compatibility)
Craft link if possible?
Awesome video, how did you specifically get the tanks looking like that?
The tanks themselves are from BDB and I used conformal decals to add some details.
How did you bring it to space? whenever i try launch an orion drive my TWR is 0.23 on the main stage
You have see For All Mankind no ? for use this First music 😂
What TUFX profile did you use?
I believe it was a profile from Emilius’s Palette set of configs, likely ‘the really old one’ (I’m pretty sure that’s what it’s called)
How did you get the look for the Orion Drive? IIRC it doesn't look like that out of the box.
I used an engine housing from BDB tweakscaled to the correct diameter
I know this vid is pretty old but could you please provide a craft file
What mods do you use?
Main mods are Bluedog Design Bureau, Shuttle Orbiter Construction Kit, Photon Corp, Stockish Project Orion / Roverdude's Orion mod, Tweakscale/AllTweak and Conformal Decals for parts. Visual mods are TUFX, Scatterer, EVE, and the visuals included with KSRSS.
What mod do you uses for the Orion drive?
IIRC it was RoverDude's project Orion mod.
How did you get that white and blacking looking orion drive?
Like the tanks and drive look very different from listed mod
I used a tweakscaled engine mount from BDB that the orion drive sits inside of.
@@TosteKSP thanks I'll try
I can see that you are also using sock recolored I’ve been trying to download it but I can’t get it to work how did you get yours to work
There are two download links on the forum page, if one doesn't work maybe try the other? Aside from that I'm not sure how much I can help, I just installed it the standard way by merging the mod's Gamedata folder into KSP's. Good luck though!
@@TosteKSP I tried the two downloads and they bring up the same error it says I'm missing a file and I cant find it I don't know what to do ;-;
@@colesims7269 In that case I'm not quite sure what to do either, I would recommend going to the official forum page and asking for help there. The people who worked on the mod should hopefully know what the issue is and how to fix it. Good luck!
Where did you get the solar panels on the main Orion ship?
Bluedog Design Bureau, they’re the roll out solar arrays used for one of the versions of Skylab
@@TosteKSP are you using the 1.11 dev version of BDB?
@@ninthninja05 yes, you can get it on the BDB GitHub
what was the mod for the orion drive?
Stockish Project Orion / Roverdude's Orion mod, I don't remember which one I used for this video but they're pretty much the same so it shouldn't matter too much which one you use
great vid, but... I think that nuke engine needs an epilepsy warning 🤢
KSRSS?
Yes
last episode of FAM nothing interesting at the after credits in 2003 there is no spaceship or anything new just the margo scene in Russia is over and it's over!!
Ma ma build Orion and disgraced the design by putting solar panels on it xD Either go full nuclear, or go home !
can you give us a mods list please? :)
Main mods are Bluedog Design Bureau, Shuttle Orbiter Construction Kit, Photon Corp, Stockish Project Orion / Roverdude's Orion mod, Tweakscale/AllTweak and Conformal Decals for parts. Visual mods are TUFX, Scatterer, EVE, and the visuals included with KSRSS.
@@TosteKSP holy shit that was quick. Thanks man I've been trying to get into RSS :D
TUFX profile?
I used a custom profile for this video, if you want something at least kind of similar I would suggest Palette by Emilius, which you can just search up and download
Quiten esa musiquita. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻🤕🤕
So the song black hole sun
