This small thermo nuclear SSTO was designed to take off and land on the moon Titan of RSS 2.0. This craft features 4 jet engines and 4 small water powered nuclear engines. This SSTO also features a parachute and an ejectable capsule for emergencies.
Before you fly this rocket, I have to warn you that this vehicle requires a very specific launch profile to sucessfully reach Titan’s orbit. Here is a basic rundown for how to reach orbit.
Launch profile:
- activate jet stage and keep throttle at 15%
- keep heading at 90 degrees vertical
- when the rocket stops accelerating, increase thrust by 5%
- repeat last step until rocket reaches 190km
- at 190km turn on nuclear engines
- set angle at 85 degrees until 400km
- at 400km set angle to 70 degrees
- at 500 set to 45 degrees
- full throttle until apoapsis is above 600 km
- set throttle to setting that maintains current airspeed
- be sure you have enough delta v to circularize before you approach apoapsis
