Cassini-Huygens Challenge (for OPM)


Recommended Posts

Today's challenge will commemorate one of my favorite space probes, Cassini-Huygens.

The challenge:

Level 1: build a (stock) realistic-looking Cassini-Huygens, launch it on a Titan IV-B/Centaur rocket, send it to Sarnus, drop the Huygens probe into Tekto's atmosphere.

Level 2: do all of the above, but also fly by all of the other 4 moons of Sarnus before releasing Huygens into Tekto's atmosphere.

Level 3: do all of the above with no gravity assists, Jool or otherwise (Slate assist to capture)

Level 4: do all of the above, but add small, minimalistic, one-way landers for the other 4 moons (Weight limit: 3 metric tons per lander)

Level 5: do all of the above in career mode.

Ooh!! Interesting! For the rocket, can we use stock FASA (not the overpowered engines) to make it look more realstic? This is REALLY interesting though. Ill get back to you sometime in the near future )

(4 to 5 days)
