These contracts could also replace the contracts provided by RemoteTech for the constellations.\r\n\r\nI think to inspire myself from this page : [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_communications_satellite_firsts](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_communications_satellite_firsts) to implement a regular progression of contracts around the Earth.\r\n\r\nThe list of contracts that I intend to implement (WIP) :\r\n- [ ] First ComSat :SCORE-like, min Pe=180km, 12h of lifetime\r\n- [ ] First Autonomous ComSat : must have solar panels\r\n- [ ] Reflector Sats : ECHO-like, must have a dish antennae ?\r\n\r\nDon't hesitate to lead me, thanks"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/KSP-RO/RP-0/issues/comments/231654778","html_url":"https://github.com/KSP-RO/RP-0/issues/562#issuecomment-231654778","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/KSP-RO/RP-0/issues/562","id":231654778,"user":{"login":"hargn","id":1006184,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1006184?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/hargn","html_url":"https://github.com/hargn","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hargn/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hargn/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hargn/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hargn/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hargn/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hargn/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hargn/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hargn/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/hargn/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-07-11T06:49:43Z","updated_at":"2016-07-11T06:49:43Z","body":"Thanks all for the info, these are a lot of ideas here, I will compile all of it to make the best contracts I can.\r\nThere is also the sun-synchronous orbit : [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun-synchronous_orbit](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun-synchronous_orbit), but I can't believe the tide effect that keep the satellite always oriented to the sun is well implemented into KSP.\r\nElse I have seen a way to make variables where to put the list of biomes for an astral body. At each contract completion, the involved biome is removed from this list. So we can have repeatable scientific contracts. We can also look for the state of the art : [https://github.com/jrossignol/ContractPack-FieldResearch/blob/master/GameData/ContractPacks/FieldResearch/BiomeStudy.cfg](https://github.com/jrossignol/ContractPack-FieldResearch/blob/master/GameData/ContractPacks/FieldResearch/BiomeStudy.cfg).\r\nBut for me, it is not in the topic (as for the rover contracts), I think we should create another issue for the scientific satellites."}}
