The Mobile Moon Lander Challenge

[NicholaiRen]

Hello guys.

For this challenge, I want to see which of you can make a lander that can collect 10 different surface samples from the Mun. 

Who ever can do it the fastest wins. 

Rule 1: It has to be a single rocket. No docking in orbit unless you launch both parts up in the same rocket(basically, built entirely in the VAB)

Rule 2: Stock game only.

Rule 3: You have to return to Kerbin.

Rule 4: No debug mode.

Rule 5: Samples must make it back to Kerbin too.

 

Time will be measured through game time, not play time. 

Each sample must be from different biomes.

Remember, there's 17 different biomes to choose from. Including the poles. 

Good luck guys.

I have not completed it yet but I've been trying inside of career mode, without everything that's available. 

So I guess this challenge won't be done until I do it, so give me a little while to do it.

Thank you.

Other then that, it meets all the rules.

Promising challenge!

Two questions: how is time measured? Play time or game time? Warp will be a big chunk of the time elapsed. Does warp count?

Rule 3 says "you have to return from Kerbin" -- what does that mean?

Do the surface samples have to be from different biomes?

Game time. Warp counts.

Return to Kerbin*

I'll fix that, so when you look at it again that's why it's changed.

 

Yes, they have to be from different biomes.
