Background: "Solar System SCIENCE!!!" is a Science Mode save I first had in KSP 0.90. I have remade that save for every new version of KSP, and this is what I am doing in the current 1.1.2/1.1.3 save: ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Current Status: Science: Over 4,900 Active Missions: 7 Flags: 10 Furthest Kerbal Landing: Minmus Furthest Probe: Hermes Complex (Moho) Planets Visited by Kerbals: Kerbin, Mun, Minmus Planets Visited by Probes: Kerbin, Mun, Minmus, Moho, Duna Deaths: 0 Failed Missions: At least 5 Time: Year 2, Day 100-something ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Starting Story: The construction of Feronia Station is nearing completion. After the Docking Module, all that needs to be added to the main structure is at least one Crew Module for the station's occupants. The rocket carrying the Docking Module was launched on Year 2, Day 167. However, one of the boosters destroyed a stability wing during booster separation, and the orbit of the Docking Module became too tilted for a quick rendezvous. To worsen the situation, a recently ejected piece of debris destroyed the Clamp-o-Tron Sr. on Docking Leg 4, leaving only a regular Clamp-o-Tron on that leg. The flight directors at Triple-S argued what to do with the failing mission, and decided to keep going to Feronia Station. It was decided to use Docking Leg 4 as the place for the manned Volare spacecrafts to dock to, since they use regular Clamp-o-Trons. However, the Docking Module still needs to correct its orbit and dock to Feronia in order to succeed. ______________________________________________________________________________________________ Fun Facts: All of the events in this thread involving Solar System SCIENCE are mostly real. Things like the flight control Kerbals are added to create an interesting story. I have been doing Solar System SCIENCE in Kerbal Space Program since December of 2014. The fate of the Docking Module and more events are coming soon.
