These are because the sea dragon has to be simple, like the real thing it was supposed to be a big dumb booster. Truax's basic idea was to produce a low-cost heavy launcher, a concept now called "The first stage was to be powered by a single enormous 36,000,000 kgf (350 MN; 79,000,000 lbf) thrust engine burning The second stage was also equipped with a single very large engine, in this case a 6,000,000 kgf (59 MN; 13,000,000 lbf) thrust engine burning A typical launch sequence would start with the rocket being refurbished and mated to its cargo and ballast tanks on shore.

The RP-1 and nitrogen would also be loaded at this point. This mod adds realistic engine exhaust plume expansion to engine parts in stock KSP as well as other part mods (if supported).
-low tech (no nukes, RTGs, no ion engines required) Close. Why? Real Scale Sea Dragon is a realistically scaled parts pack, for making the infamous Sea Dragon rocket concept. Although preliminary engineering of the design was done by TRW, the project never moved forward due to the closing of NASA's Future Projects Branch. The project was led by Robert Truax while working at Aerojet, one of a number of designs he created that were to be launched by floating the rocket in the ocean. I build a stock sea dragon in KSP! Posted by 2 hours ago. Tweakscale would be required. Extended first stage tank's lower skirt, and removed extraneous attachment node corresponding to it.Shortened first stage engine length (and updated sample rocket accordingly), after discovering miscalculation.Reworked colliders for first and second stage main engines, and first stage tank.Updated VAB sample rocket to ignite the verniers at launch in the staging.Added an animated bell extension for the second stage engine, and updated sample rockets to use it (action group 1).Added custom smoke trail for first stage engine (known issue: runs regardless of air pressure).Removed smoke trails from upper-stage engine + verniers (hydrogen burns cleanly).Mostly complete.

level 1. low tech (no nukes, RTGs, no ion engines required) Updated for 1.1, but are no longer compatible with 1.0.5.Sample rockets saved with fairing settings to use maximum ejection force, and 4-way clamshells.Increased crash tolerance of first stage engine and tank to 150 m/s to support oceanic crash-landing recovery.Removed stack attachment node from end of skirt extension on second stage tank, and instead added it to second stage engine.Added inflatable "recovery flare" to the first stage engine, and updated sample rockets to put it on action group 2.Increased crash tolerance considerably on all parts, to allow bouncing around in the water.Added attachment node at bottom of first stage engine to allow attaching the ballast tank. It was massive!Yes, its special ability is drowning and just drowning. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. It is still to date the largest rocket ever proposed. I build a stock sea dragon in KSP! Part count is 117 without the launch transport and erection mechanism, but 88 of that is payload, so the actual part count is 29, which certainly qualifies as "big dumb booster". Why must it be as large as the image? Game Version: -must be able to life a 10 meter tall and 3.75 meter payload (required) The main engines are all gimbal-locked and there are no active reaction wheels. Sample rockets saved with fairing settings to use maximum ejection force, and 4-way clamshells. 64. I used a 12x3.75 meter fairing, so that was the limit on vehicle diameter. Criteria -have a part count under 50 (optional 50 points) -must be about as large as the image (required) -recoverable (optional 40 points) -must launch from water (required) -must be able to life a …

The Sea Dragon was a real-world proposal for a 'big dumb booster', that would be built in a shipyard, floated out to the launch site, fueled by splitting seawater into hydrogen and oxygen which would then be liquified, then the ballast tank would fill to put the flamey end down and pointy end up. (should be worse! So let's do this! 1st place most ingenious and eccentric design - 140 points Yes, but some players do not WANT to use mods, like myself. The Kerbal Space Program subreddit. An engine that large has some massive combustion instability issues it would need to handle that even the "small" (in comparison) F1 engine required months of design iteration to even understand and begin to address.

Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts Posted by 6 months ago. -if it goes to any body beyond minmus 400 points. Sort by. Holy shit.I wanted to see how big it would have been, so I made a 3D model from the blueprints. And I said you can use mods.
