Shooting Valentina to Duna and back with a huge cannon

Last week I made a cannon that could shoot a small projectile onto the Mun.. That was nice and all, but wouldn't be a lot cooler if I could shoot a kerbal to Duna. The answer is YES.

I made a small video (1:30) of the mission where I shoot Valentina to the surface of Duna (at 641g)  and then transport her back again back to Kerbin. I used a landing "capsule" that @Cunjo Carl designed a couple of years ago when he was doing his epic speed run of the game.

Hope you guys like it. :)
