LazTek SpaceX Exploration Expansion Kit .90
LazTek Temporal Anomalies appreciates your participation in testing our products for Kerbal Space Program.
************
This package includes high, medium and low-resolution versions. ONLY ONE VERSION OF THIS PACKAGE IS DESIGNED TO BE INSTALLED AT A TIME. INSTALLING THE OTHER VERSION WILL OVERWRITE THE CURRENT ONE.
The SpaceX Exploration Expansion Kit is designed as an add-on for our SpaceX Launch Pack, and the included .craft files require the installation of the Launch Pack to load correctly. Remove any prior installations of this package before installing to prevent incompatibilities with older parts. To install, extract the GameData and Ships folders into your KSP program folder. When asked to merge, choose yes.

Included with this package:
PARTS -
Dragon Habitat (A complete living quarters and mobile laboratory solution for extraplanetary exploration. Has inflatable living/working area that accomodates 7 kerbalnauts with interior views.)
Dragon Aft Dock (Designed to allow docking between Dragon V2 and Dragon Trunk V2 when equipped with Dragon Dock
Dragon Retractable Solar Panel Cover (Fits over Habitat solar panels and may be toggled open and closed)
Explorer Shield V2 (Protects Dragon Habitat during atmospheric entry, has top decoupler)
Habitat Landing Leg (Retractable landing gear for Dragon Habitat module, designed to be surface attached in a set of four.)
Falcon Short Interstage (Protective decoupler that allows ARM claw to be installed under the Dragon 2 and Explorer Habitat)
Falcon Tanker (Large upper stage fuel and monopropellant tank for orbital refueling of interplanetary missions)
Falcon Solar Array - A surface-mounted small solar panel array that includes a smaller version of the Dragon Solar Panels hidden behind retractable protective doors and designed to be used with the Falcon tanker for orbital electrical power
Advanced VTOL Engine - Monopropellant-burning, advanced hybrid engine contained in a 1m cowling, switchable between air-breathing and closed system modes for single stage to orbit spacecraft. Has vector thrust that can be switched 90 degrees in two directions.
NERVA II Nuclear Vacuum Engine - NASA NERVA II Nuclear vacuum engine, mount and protective cowling designed to be attached to 2.5m upper tank of long-range space vehicles.
400 Monopropellant Tank - Attachable monopropellant tank for extended use of Draco-engine spacecraft.
200 Monopropellant Tank - Small, attachable monopropellant tank for extended use of Draco-engine spacecraft.
SHIPS -
LT SpaceX Dragon Explorer V2 - Designed to explore and return from any solid body in the Kerbol system, this ship is set up with an inflatable habitat with living quarters for up to seven Kerbalnauts and a Nerva II long-range nuclear engine for interplanetary travel. The Dragon V2 craft is equipped with an aft dock for use as a lander that can redock with orbiter.

NOTES -
Monopropellant tanks may be added to transfer fuel to Dragon V2 tanks to top them off after safely launching to orbit.
Dragon Solar Panels are no longer needed with the new Dragon V2 trunk and its built-in solar array, but are needed with the Dragon Habitat module and are thus included in both the SpaceX Explorer Expansion kit and SpaceX Historic Archive pack.
