Year 23

Year 23, Day 1 (New Kerbin Spacedock Under Construction!)

sayburstuff Year 23 , ,

After the disaster at Kerbin Spacedock in Year 22, KSEA has been hard at work planning a replacement for the facility.

The mission of this new Spacedock is the same as its predecessor:

  • Provide a central location for Crews to arrive from the surface
  • Refuel and Resupply of Deep Space Vehicle Fleet
  • Provide long-term habitat for Kerbals in orbit

In addition to providing a new docking are for MPV (Multi-Payload-Vehicles) to dock and resupply the station, the new facility provides a dedicated DSV dock, a dedicated Crew arrival area and an centrifugal ring for artificial gravity!

The facility borrows several design elements from Sarnus Station, launched in Year 22. 

“We think this new design corrects the structural defects of the previous Spacedock… the inline Fuel storage should prevent accidents like the old Spacedock! “
