Man in Space Soonest

[helcustom]

Kerputnik 1 has been launched by the Koviet Union and the United Kerbal States needs to get a big win to boost moral. The UKS has decided to beat the Koviet Union by launching the first Kerbal in space. But tensions are running high and if a kerbonaut were to land in Koviet territory they would be put in prison and be accused of spying.

 

Rules 

1.) The reentry Vehicle must be able to change its landing site during reentry without using an engine or engines in atmosphere

2.) reentry vehicle must do an unpowered landing, that means no jets or rocket engines can be used during reentry and landing. Landing can be done by parachute or by doing a normal landing.

3.) only cockpits allowed are ones 1.25 Meters or smaller, also no external seats.

4.) (optional) Launch Vehicle based on late 50’s early 60’s versions of these rocket families: Jupiter, Atlas, Titan , Minuteman, Vanguard, Delta, Scout and Navaho.

Mods are allowed

Looking back some of the rules were kinda draconian so I have decided to change some of the rules and reword some as well.
