  1. Today I wrapped up the last of my pre-1.1 bucket list: landing and returning from Eeloo in one launch. 95% of my gameplay has been within the Kerbin system, so I felt that it was finally time to accomplish this task. I only had ~2,600 m/s dV after landing, so to save fuel I used one Joolian and two Kerbin fly-bys to set up an appropriate capture. As a result, this mission took just over 67 years to complete: ~6 years to get to Eeloo, and another 61 years to get back.
  2. The "Falcon Kick" has slightly less weight and parts compared to the "Falcon Punch" to reduce drag, and may have the potential to break the 1,500 m/s barrier. I was able to get up to 1,494 m/s.
  3. This was fun, though not as easy as I thought it would be! "Falcon Punch" was able to get up to 1,467 m/s and exerted 15G on the poor Kerbal, Tamayne.
  4. Here is my submission to the Jool-5 challenge (Level 3, with no refueling). I was inspired to give it a go after watching @steveroof's video (as is evident by the very similar design of my Lander Capsule). This was a very difficult and time-consuming endeavor, but it was also incredibly rewarding. I would rate it as being one of the hardest things I've done in KSP so far. I apologize for the album length; it's 116 images long. Which game version did you use? 1.0.5What mods did you use, if any? Kerbal Engineer and Kerbal Alarm ClockHow many Kerbals are on the mission? Five (one for each moon)How many launches were needed to start your mission from Kerbin? ThreeHow much did your mission cost? $2,032,400Did you need a refueling mission? NoDid you bring additional stuff like satellites, rovers, etc? No Share the delta-V information too, if you tracked it! I didn't track any flight information, however, I did post dV information on each portion of my ship in the album.
  5. Sorry for the delay @Starlionblue. Here it is: Stock Eve Lander Edit: The TWR and dV should be sufficient to get you back to Kerbin even if you land in the water (which I did on one of my tests). I hope you enjoy it, and good luck!
  6. Thank you @Gojira1000! If anybody would like, I have no problems posting my craft file. You would just need to add on ladders so your Kebal can plant a flag.
  7. Hello, I did this about a month ago. I had no intention of posting this accomplishment online at the time, so please forgive me for the lack of pictures of the transfers and whatnot. The only mod I used was KER. Eve and back, in one launch.
