The solid fuel chemist

this was definitely poorly advertized. its like being told christmas is coming up and on the day everyone but you and a few other people get presents. I mean its still a happy time and you are glad for other people but you cant help but feel a bit selfish...

sorry no updates in a while. been incredibly busy and had to do a lot of yard work after this windstorm blew down a ton of branches. but one cool thing is that i'm moving to serbia when the next school year starts. I'll be going to a international school in belgrade for pretty much until college.

thompberry did let out some pretty vicious lines right before the saucer died. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy that thinks that much about that stuff. Also, gamma-77 if from long ago when he was evil and he's changed now... or has he?

comets... all add that to my "things the supa-secret project might be" list,

i made some stock* homing torpedoes that actually reliably work, i can post pics if your interested. *uses BD small warhead but rest is completely stock

Its minmus. just tip the (very tall) cannon on its side to prevent kessler syndrome and use RCS to right it for firing. also, you could have a tug that would launch with the payload and help it get to a higher orbits before landing back at the cannon.

between the mk 3 underbelly and those VTOL aerospikes, as far as KSP goes i have confidence that it could water land seeing as you can now hit water pretty fast and survive and mk3 cargo bays (which i assume the underbelly is made of) are pretty solid parts. Bring up a klaw with a bunch of parachutes attached and you could definitely land the thing.

Kuzzter! Chuck! Somebody! Quick, check her eyes!

Chapter 14 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnPB_uOUPxI (you know the drill, some background music for you) the four kerbs stood at the mountaintop. they had planted two small flat stones upright in the snow. Up there, all alone, they held a memorial ceremony for Mayzee and Anzer Kerman. when it was over, Bob let out a cry of anguish and threw a rock of the cliff much farther than anyone had ever seen the nerdy scientist throw. Or, at least, the crew thought it was a rock. But Jeb had been a fighter pilot. He was adept at noticing things from a distance. What he saw Bob throw made him feel a fresh wave of guilt that almost brought him to tears. It was a small square box, very similar to the one Jeb had in his own pocket. Bob had lost somthing much more than a crewmate. Jeb couldn't imagine what that must feel like. When they were getting back into their shuttle. Jeb asked Val to fly. He made eye contact with Bob, and in those eyes that were usually associated with a screen or a microscope, he saw such sadness, such depression. He wondered what relationship Bob could have possibly had that could do this to him... 217 Years earlier... Bob and Mayzee where working in the lab of the Zephyr. They had just entered Eeloos SOI and the entire suite of science instruments had sent their data back to the lab for processing. "Bob, can you take a look at this seismic scan for me? I think the accelerometer has gotten too sensitive." "Hmm, I don't think so. Bill and Anzer just went through a full inspection of the science instruments. Eeloo's just... way more seismically active than we thought. This should give the guys at RnD somthing to think about for awhile." "seriously?" "What?" "You say that like, On half of your experiments."This should give the guys at RnD somthing to think about for awhile."" "Well, maybe its because of this beautiful girl that keeps distracting me from good words to say" Mayzee snorted and gave Bob a kiss on the cheek. "Best leave you to your work then." As Mazee walked away, Bob smiled. He, literally the nerdiest most unpopular kid in school, was on a rocket ship going to the far reaches of Kerbol. And on top of that he was chief scientist and had the girl. Was there much left to ask for? Things where going absolutely perfect. And it was from this day until the fateful landing day that Bob Kerman started having nightmares.

DONT BLOW IT UP! THE REST OF US DON'T WANT BOOM!

but there was quite a lot of fuel in that nacelle. unless they plan on staying in kerbin's SOI, they may not be able to make it to wherever they're going.

oh, but people in europe will probably get it tuesday.(time zones) in the course of 5 hours i somehow got 7 notifications...you know who you are...

hmm, is that class c or d?

OK, ive know what the chapter is going to be like and i have to write it down before i forget. Screw the weekend! Update tomorrow here we go!

Chapter 13 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZ1y_Z6Bc0M (okay. background music is now a tradition for this thread.) Bill strapped himself into the seat of their shuttle. The Super Strider was being left in orbit for repairs and Jeb was flying them down to the surface. They where about to start their deorbit burn when Bill spoke up. "Jeb, set the landing coordinates to 20 degrees west, 1 degree north." Jeb looked back at bill, and smiled. "roger, inputting the coordinates." After the burn, the shuttle underwent some reentry flames and upon diving below the clouds, they where met with a vast evergreen forest. the shuttle glided to their destination and set down birdlike in a small clearing. Bill stepped out of their craft and breathed in the deep smell of fir needles and pitch. He looked around into the depths of the forest and saw nothing but trees and fog. But when he stepped around to the other side of the shuttle, he saw it. tattered, leaning, and covered in dead fir needles. the walls, that once kept out the oppressive near vacuum of Duna, now welcomed in the fresh air through several dry rotted holes. one of their old sample shovels was tangled in the roots of a nearby tree. Only the rover had kept its shape over the centuries. The others soon followed Bill over to their old base. They entered it and rediscovered the building that had been their home for those many months. Val still had a (very tattered) poster taken by a probe orbiting Jool nailed to one of her walls. The sofa that they would all watch The Saga of Emiko Station on sunday nights was largely intact. Jeb found some of his old love letters and embarrassingly hid them in a bush. Bob coaxed their old computer back to life and took his collection of XKOM games and put them on a flash drive. After looting their old home of all they could find, they walked back to their shuttle with booty in hand. "So, where to next?" Jeb stared at a nearby snowcapped mountain. "well, seeing as none of us have gotten any exercise for 217 years, How does skiing on duna sound?"

sorry no chapters in a while. School was eating all my time and my weekends are spent skiing and going to robotics tournaments. (in case anybody asks, i participate in the VEX competition and our robot is a hanging bulldozer with a very long extensible blade that can dominate when it comes to stars) Things are setting down now that the second semesters started tho so expect a chapter sometime this weekend. wait... tho is a word now?! autocorrect didn't underline it...

Darkowls's back... back again... Your building quite the library of stories there.

Seeing as the L in LCD stands for liquid, it would make a gooey, hallucinogenic, very sharp sludge. as for the sheer impact of a monitor falling on your face...

geez, man. Your a lot more devoted to your story than I am to mine. I slam into a tree skiing and hurt my arm and don't really work on my story at all. Here you are with a almost broken back and yet soldering on. that's really impressive. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

congrats on finally getting featured!

wait but if there were 3 saucers and all three merged to form Omega-77, who is the mun saucer? wait so this is Gamma-77?

wait... Epsilon 77?

How does that thing still have fuel?!?! also,

Chapter 12 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=izsjRpcgfmk(its official, background music is awsome. ) Jeb stood at the helm of the battleship, staring out at space. What would he find out there? Many others on board wondered the same thing. Rockomax had been holding Eeloo for so long, not many people had been out around the system much. He stared at the void, much the same way as when he had left on missions to other planets. Strangely, it was the same feeling. Just instead of venturing into the unexplored, he was venturing into the unknown. Jeb felt... renewed. It was if all the planets suddenly took back the exploration done there. He was starting over. It was time for a new adventure. Upon realizing this. He stood up straighter. Perhaps it was his destiny, to be a explorer, a wanderer. And with this newfound mindset, Jeb remembered that wreak on the surface, Property of Duna Security Force. And he gave the order. "Set course for Duna" "Aye Aye, Captain" Bob tried to find a map screen, but instead came upon a warp drive control panel. "Wernher, you sneaky little kerb." He put in the coordinates, hit the big red button, and Eeloo swiftly faded into the distance. Jeb expected a growing red speck. He got a growing green speck. For a second he thought they were accidentally going towards kerbin, But their arrival soon wiped away that possibility. Where red regolith and canyons once stood, there was now a vast system of Crater lakes and huge river deltas. The ice caps had shrunk and turned to water ice. And the green! it was everywhere. Only slight hints of red peeked in the biggest plains. Clouds were smattered across the globe. Huge city's were placed under just as large asteroids in duna stationary orbit, hinting at the existence of space elevators. "by kraken, its beautiful!" Val exclaimed. Ike was covered in clear connected domes, almost like bubble wrap. Its dark side was lit up spectacularly. Spacecraft, seen as only points of light, buzzed about the system, Jeb looked at all of this. "Ladies and gentlekerbs, i believe we have some work to do"
