Merry christmas! Another year has passed and I'm back with a new video. This time we visit Saturn on a mission that is considerably bigger in scope than the last one. Eventhough Saturn is almost twice as far away from the Sun as Jupiter, the crew is back on Earth less than 3 years after launch, no refueling necessary at Saturn. Compared to the 6 years on the mission to Jupiter, that truly shows the potential of advanced propulsion technologies like fusion rockets for crewed missions to the outer solar system.
Some screenshots of the mission in high(er) quality:

I am suddenly struck with the profound significance of returning to earth after 2.6 years. Not only are you finally returning home, to where everyone you've ever known is, but there's a sense of ennui there. 2.6 years is an entire chapter of your life. That station, and maybe those bases, will have become it's own home to you. It's just like any change that comes with life I suppose. The heartbreaking totality of moving your life somewhere new, or returning to where you once knew. It is a wildly esoteric and yet intensely familiar situation.

I believe I recall reading somewhere that the command leader of Apollo 17 said some along the lines of "People talk about living and work on the moon, but I did you know I had a job and I had a house..." he was much more reflective on the experience then his partner who realized since it was the last Apollo mission and time was short he had to focus on the tasks at hand as there wasn't going to be another chance to get this scientific data.

Fun fact: Titan is the second most habitable body in the solar system. This is, for the most part, because the atmospheric pressure on Titan is so high that you wouldn't need a full space suit to take a walk on its surface, though you should pack your best winter clothes, as the average surface temperature comes in at around -182°C, and you'd still need an oxygen mask to breathe on Titan, as its atmosphere is not breathable to humans. However, due to the high surface pressure, you would not need a pressure suit to breathe there, provided the oxygen mask outputs the right pressure.

@222cubing8 9 ай бұрын

it would be too pressurized

@Chrischi3TutorialLPs 9 ай бұрын

@@222cubing8 The pressure in and off itself would not be a problem. What is important for breathing is that 1: You get a certain pressure of oxygen, and 2: You get a certain percentage of it past some amount of pressure While our lungs are not made for 1.4 atmospheres, if you do the math, it does work out.

@TheDennys21 6 ай бұрын

How would you not need a space suit at -182?

@Chrischi3TutorialLPs 6 ай бұрын

@@TheDennys21 Well, while you probably would need a suit that covers your full body and has active heating to not freeze to death after more than a few minutes, you wouldn't need a full on space suit. The reason you need one on the Moon is that the Moon is in a vacuum. This makes it impossible for you to breathe, even if you have an oxygen mask, because the pressure difference is too big. Your lungs couldn't move the air around, even if there was enough of it for you to breathe, because the pressure difference between the inside of your lung and the outside of your chest would be too big. However, Titan's atmosphere is dense enough that, provided you had an oxygen mask designed for the enviornment, you very much could breathe there, so you wouldn't need a full on pressure suit. Furthermore, any coverings over your face you would need would mostly be to prevent frostbite from liquid hydrocarbon (which, by the way, it rains on Titan), but the atmosphere itself doesn't contain any irritating gases, so you could do without for some time if you had to.

Wow! Finally got the time to sit down and watch after Christmas madness. What a great follow-up to your previous video. Some thoughts: -I love the VentureStar-esque crew launch vehicle. Making it compatible with both Earth and Titan launch is an elegant solution. -So cool to see the inflatable-headshield interstage, blunt body upper stage reentry vehicle concept. The ITS-inspired(?) booster is neat too. -300 days to Saturn: wow. Ain't fusion fun! -A helicopter rover is exactly the right kind of madness that only a Titan mission can make people come up with. Such an alien-looking design. -The balloon-launched Titan ascent was a similar moment. Anything is possible on Titan it seems lol -I also laughed at the presentation of the Enceladus mission. After a 4 month stay in comparative luxury on possibly the most fun and interesting body in the solar system, I'm sure I wouldn't be too broken up about "just" taking a quick flags-and-footprints jaunt like that. I don't know to what extent you head-cannon this stuff, or if it's based on real concepts/research like the Jupiter mission was, but I wanted to ask- do you envision this architecture as doing the first crewed missions to Saturn, or is it a later/more mature design? Do you think this is a late 2000s mission or 2100s? Is the transfer vehicle capable of crew missions to Uranus/Neptune (with modifications), or do you envision starting from a clean slate if you ever pursue missions like those? Thanks for the wonderful content. Hope to see more from you in the future.

@fork9001 2 жыл бұрын

Probably early 2100s. But by then there would be sufficient infrastructure in the outer solar system so something like this could be used to transfer heavier payloads to anywhere in the solar system.

@NessusKSP 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for your thoughts! There was definitely some head-cannon involved in making this, it would be pretty dumb to land on such an interesting moon like Enceladus and just plant a flag, just imagine another month of science on the surface :D The main technological hurdles are obviously the engine and fusion fuel storage, I'm certainly not a qualified person to talk about this but I would guess a mission like this is at least 100 years in the future (the HOPE study also proposed a fusion option using magnetized target fusion with similar performance to the engine in this video). I do hope we don't have to wait 100 years to see humans at Saturn, a mission with less payload (maybe only landing on Enceladus) would certainly be possible with the technology from my last video. Since the spacecraft itself comes back to Earth in one piece and the transfer time is only one year, I could see this as the beginning of regular missions to Saturn to build a larger colony, maybe even with people living permanently on Titan.

@@NessusKSP Assuming SpaceX starts sending people to Mars in 2031 (relatively conservative but a little optimistic too), and Starship launch cost gets down to low single digit millions (possible even without rapid reusability (although I think they will achieve that eventually within the next 5-10 years), just have to have a large fleet of fully reusable rockets), I think we will see an unprecedented growth of the "space economy". Assuming this happens, its reasonable to imagine there could be a decently sized colony at Mars by 2050 (anywhere between tens of thousands to around a hundred thousand people possibly). Once you have a colony at Mars with tens of thousands of people, you could go from there to Ceres and from Ceres to Jupiter and so on. That kind of development would probably put any first humans to Saturn sometime in the 2070s-2090s I imagine. Another way of getting to Saturn potentially much sooner in the future is if plasma magnet sails are used, which could be feasible if the launch costs lower enough that testing them by non-government/non-profit groups becomes feasible. In that case I think people could go to Saturn by the 2050s.

This video was amazing. Not only due to the fact that it looks completely different from what KSP normally looks like and looks amazing while doing it. Not only because you synced some of the actions with the music. Not only because it was so cool to watch. But because it was just a stunning mission to watch (plus everything I said before). Well done Nessus, I will be looking forward to watching more of your video's.

Loved the unique way you did the large station. Loved that you used rovers to connect the modules on the Titan base, and having a helicopter included. Also I really enjoyed the video editing. Very unique and clever on it all. Always enjoy your KSP creations

Wow Very Inpressive. I can't imagine the amout of work and planning you put in to this. Just amazing. I wish KSP looked like that when I played it many, many years ago. Eye candy adds so much to the sim. It is one thing to get all the mechaniics right, but then seeing those amazing views of Earth in your vid especially on the return trip, was incredible. Very Emotive.
