Children of an Ex-Capitalist EarthEarth is home to the decadent remnants of the United States, whose decline as the capitalist superpower has lead way for the rise of eastern powers, whom now control and dominate global trade. All but a noble few corporations have abandoned Earth, in the search for the old capitalists dream in the far flung corners of the solar system. I'm not very imaginative, sorry The Astronomer I sniped inspiration from your project.

29/5/2017 Motor repository beta v1.1
- Reorganised motor table to have all required information in one group for easier filling.
- Added overall difference comparison in comparison sheet.
- Added weighted average converter in built into propellant sheet for easy adding of new bi-propellants.
- Added unit converter for quality of life.
You can add any propellants that are not there already, as it is completely expandable. It is critical you convert your units however to use the same as the table, and you do not need to format your entries! To add bi-propellants the density needs to be the weighted average of the two components and same story for the cost. To add a motor: - Fill in all the blue columns in the motors sheet using the correct units without formatting.
- Once complete, the black columns will auto-fill if you have correctly entered your data.
- To compare your motor go to the Motor finder/comparison sheet.
- Search for your motor in motor slot 1 or 2 by providing the relevant info.
- Complete the same for the motor you want to compare.
- You can now compare your motors stats!
Visit it here: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o8ggi5-HgEHX7ql4oAJVVCK7MiySgCs44I8TnBhh7sM/edit?usp=sharingPlease do not edit entries that are not your own, and have fun! Thanks to all the people on discord who helped me test this!

Enderminion I added it to the instructions in the post, it wasn't clear enough amongst the first paragraph.

Enderminion you're doing it right when your "missile" is more massive than the fleet you're firing it at.

darthroach AFAIK the structural bracing visible in the editor isn't yet computed in the final mass and cost.

This time I spent more than 5 minutes cobbling something together, with larger safety margins and dimensions for good measure. The Tower of Babel.62,330 Passengers to LEO @ 29,040¢ a seat, including 4kt of cargo. Also, Pttg my last submission carries 2kt of cargo, but you only marked it as 1kt;

My half witted attempt at this, the only way I know how; The Boron Cucumber1,580,000,000¢ of totally not wasted tax payer funds, to send ~21,000 people into LEO for the low-ish cost of 75,500¢ per seat, including 95kg of cargo per passenger! This behemoth was dreamt up by a team of engineers huffing paint thinner on a Saturday afternoon while wondering what to do with a scrap NTR they just had lying around. Yes, that's right, this monstrosity only has one engine!
Okay so on a serious note; It's not going to win any prizes, here especially; Well, maybe the prize for best bad idea. Here are some additional pictures and information in case Pttg wants to add it to the list. It's kind of large...2kt of cargo, 95kg per passenger.The cut down Beelzebub that powers it, with 102kPa at the nozzle.

I'm sorry, I'm not dead yet. (⌐■_■)
I have been on a bit of a hiatus unfortunately due to a motorcycle accident. Anyhow, I'm back, but I've missed two(?) patches and quite a few posts on the forums to say the least; So I'm wondering if anyone would like me to continue the work on this thread? I'm not sure if what I can provide will even be relevant with the recent influx of modding and other changes, so I'm posing the question to anyone still reading this thread. I'm also not sure how often I can work on the thread anymore anyway, since I have landed a new job with longer hours out of necessity because of my accident. Let me hear your answer and I'll see if I can revitalise this thread; If it's wanted of course!
