Why We're Going Back
Here at Rocket Science Co we're always finding ways finding ways to be the most innovative. So, when our team thought of going to Luna they were pushing forward with their motives to not only challenge them, but to also gain public interest and possibly make some advancements in technology.
Not only do we want to go to Luna we also to learn more about, that is why we're going back to Luna.
The Plan
For this mission to work, we will use Echo and Bravo rockets to get back to Luna. We plan to do this in early 2022 with some progress probably ongoing in December.
Our team wants to take 6 communications satellites, 3 geographical satellites and 1 relay satellite for emergency cases. All of these satellites are made in-house, so everything that we put in the satellites is custom made or bought in probe parts from different companies. These satellites are planned to be taken to Luna via Bravo 10 V8 launches.
3 of the communications satellites will be in an LLO and the remaining three will be in a polar orbit. 2 of the geographical satellites will be an LLO with a heading of 35º and the last satellite will be in an elliptical orbit. Lastly, the relay satellite will also be in an elliptical orbit. These launches will at least be 5 days apart and can be expedited if progress is picking up the pace.
Soon after the satellite launches, our team will utilize the Echo rockets for the testing campaign. Listed down below are the test we would like to conduct before landing on Luna
Echo reaching LDO with command and lunar lander.
Echo reaching Luna and orbits around it.
Echo reaching Luna, orbit once, land and return to Droo.
After the three tests, we'll determine if we need more tests or if it's human certified for space travel. For the third test we'll take each part out for heavy examination and our team will release data that we've received during the test for everyone to use.
Then after a week of planning, working endlessly and running more simulations are team will launch the first lunar lander to Luna with astronauts inside.
