The Ultimate Jool 5 Challenge Continued
Xurkitree replied to JacobJHC's topic in KSP1 Challenges & Mission ideas
Hey quick question. I know that I said I had 4 crew members in my mission, but playing career mode, I saw a contract to rescue a Kerbal stranded in Laythe orbit- which was where I was having completed my Laythe landing and liftoff. So I rescued her (Lesen Kerman - Pilot) and she came with Valentina and Elifel to land on Bop. So my question is whether it allows for 2nd lvl or 3rd level Jeb? -

I know that I can change the Suit temperature tolerance, which makes edge of space dives possible. I so totally want to try this. -
The Ultimate Jool 5 Challenge Continued

Maybe its a mod that's causing the science containers to have a limit? I have just one container and its got 120 experiments already. And wow, you're reaally gutting the jool system of science. You're gonna top it for sure -
The Ultimate Jool 5 Challenge Continued
Xurkitree replied to JacobJHC's topic in KSP1 Challenges & Mission ideas
I made 3 ships, one mothership (Sundivine), one Lander, filled with all the science experiiments (Kepler Mk.1) and one ISRU refueller (Ore Hunter). They were sent up together, and then the lander docked with the Mothership, while Ore Hunter seperated. Then I staggered the launches, so that Ore Hunter arrived at Jool before Sundivine got there. Sadly I don't have screenshots of this transfer, since I didn't know about this challenge then. Once Ore Hunter reached, I landed on Pol, at which point I started Mining, while Sundivine got there. Sundivine arrived into the Jool system 288 days after Ore Hunter landed, in which time I set up an aerobrake manuver, which was mostly succesfully executed (some flipping happened towards the end of it), and the aerobrake somehow gave me an encounter with Tylo (lucky!), so I went into orbit around it, at which point Ore Hunter left Pol (was hard to get into orbit with Ore, had to dump some of it), and went to Tylo and docked. Then I transferred all the fuel and oxidizer (I left Kerbin without Oxidizer to save weight and increase DV) and Kepler landed on Tylo and came back. Barely got back, though. I docked with Sundivine, and Ore hunter left for Pol, while Sundivine left for Vall. Then they got back and ... you get the idea, right? Note: I actually haven't taken screenshots of docking or transfers (mostly), since I didn't know about this at the time, but I have been taking group shots of my crew when I have landed. Current status: Back from Vall landing, planning to leave for Laythe today. Mods used:MechJeb and KER (KER is bugged weirdly). Crew: Sundivine - Valentina Kerman, Elifel Kerman, Crisald Kerman Ore Hunter - Sanbree Kerman Will be taking maximum science. -
I landed on Vall in my grand tour of Jool (2/5) , and I saw this beautiful Solar eclipse (how to kerbalize that?) as Laythe comes in between it and me - and right as Jool rises into the horizon. I'll post a picture with my crew (Valentina,Elifel,Crisald) later. But Man i feel so good seeing the Sun being eclipsed.

Xurkitree replied to JPLRepo's topic in KSP1 Mod Releases
OMG I just discovered it looking at the Galileo Planet pack recommended mods section and this is perfect when I got for RSS/RO run. Can't wait to use this! Will make Life support a lot less painful. -
The Ultimate Jool 5 Challenge Continued

Oh wow, this challenge is exactly what i am doing in KSP right now. Is using one main carrier ship and one ISRU Refueller ship allowed? I've landed the Fuel ship, and the main ship is going to encounter Jool in a few months.
