Overview:

The successor to the Space Shuttle Launch System and to be one of the most powerful rockets made. In the Block 1B Crew arrangement there is 1 Orion Spacecraft at the top with room for more cargo if need be. I believe it can reach the orbit of Smars, however I'm too incapable to actually get there :/

Can take payload of around 10000kg into Deep Space. Very heavy so handle carefully. Is a bit fragile (those side fairings are very flimsy on the SRB's)

Staging:

Stage 1: Engage Solid Rocket Boosters (SRB) and Core Rocket
Stage 2: Drop SRBs
Stage 3: Drop Core Rocket and Engage Exploratory Stage
Stage 4: Drop Exploratory Stage
Stage 5: Open up cargo fairing
Stage 6: Disconnect Orion from Spacecraft Platform
Stage 7: Drop nose cone
Stage 8: Engage Orion engine

    Hello, I was wondering how you got the two fuel tank for both the SRBs and core stage to fit inside each other?

    I don't care if the dev team thinks otherwise, but I think this is a clear winner in the sub-200 category.
    I would like to compete but you know me - always making huge-ass partcounts.

    I used offset fuselages that were smaller at the top/bottom, you can just download it to take a look, it’s not that complicated. I guess the Orion could be larger

    Yeah, part count is very high for a stock, so I don’t expect it to be a stock rocket or something like that.

    How did you make such a detailed pair of boosters without having an outrageous amount of parts?

    Also I think the Orion should be larger.
