Project Korolev - The Hanging Base Journal
This is the flip-book version of my video about my hanging base project.

Hanging base:
A special kind of artificial structure, which only can be built
on the surface of the Mün. The basic idea of a hanging base
is, that it attaches itself somehow to one of the three Münar
Arches, and hangs down from there. It doesn't really fit in
the categories of the surface base or the space station, so it
„hangs” between them.
However in the Tracking Station from the gathered data, the
tracking computer says it's „Landed”, but in fact – as the
name suggests – it hangs over the surface, from the top of
the Arch. This kind of base doesn't have more benefits than
the „normal” bases or space stations, but it's a great
challenge to build one. In the next coming parts I'll show
you how I built my own, very first stock Hang-O-Base. But
I also admit that I'm not the only one who ever built a base
like this. If you look up TheSpacePirate on YouTube,
you'll find that he also built a hanging base, a year earlier
(14.04.2018 ) than me (10.02.2019), but both of us used the
KIS/KAS mods. We also used different ways to build our
bases. He used SSTO's and docked all the parts together in
LKO, meanwhile I used one single rocket to launch the
whole in one.
