Description

[0] panels; G.t:8km, Ap0:120km

A stock space station called Pole Star. Built in the KSP 1.7.3 VAB with 119 stock parts.

I’ve had Making History for over a year, but this is my first build using its parts, viz. the super-huge S4-512 fuel tank. 9 of them to be precise. This is my supercessor to Krux. It is one gigantic fuel dump. No smoking! It has 5x 2.5m docking ports and 1 small. Rugged construction to keep the Kraken at bay. It comes with its own booster assembly and enough dV to propel itself into orbit around the Mun.

Launch vertically to 8km and then commence a gravity turn. Keep all Mammoths firing until an apoapsis of 120km is achieved. Then jettison the first stage and the nose cones. Use the lone Rhino to do the rest, including the final inclination adjustment, and then jettison it, too.

Fuel capacity: LF: 183,222 OX: 223,938
