RoninFrog Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 (edited) The Cosmic Rock Collection One of your kerbonauts has recently become obsessed with rocks. So obsessed that they will travel millions of meters to other planets and moons to get the rocks they want. So get them the rocks they want! For those of you who don't know what rocks are, here is an example: Fig. 1: Rock The challenge is this: pick a single kerbal, and through any method put every possible Breaking Ground pick-up-able (or analysis of) into their inventory. You can either launch multiple simultaneous missions and bring the rocks back to them, or send the kerbal out in a full-blown grand tour, but every possible science pebble must end up in that specific kerbal's inventory. Here is the full list (to my knowledge): Laythe Stone Mun Stone Yellow Stone Duna Stone Volcanic Rock Duna Impact Ejecta Green Sandstone Moho Stone Light Stone Blueberries Ice Chunk (Vall) Ice Chunk (Eeloo) What to submit: Screenshots the "review science" reports for your chosen kerbal for each of the stones in their inventory. Happy hunting! I'll be attempting this challenge myself and I'll put my submission in the replies. SUCCESSFUL ROCK COLLECTORS: Spoiler - Extra notes: Modded categories will be marked as modded. I also think it would be fun to allow exploits in a separate category with the goal being to see how fast someone can complete the mission using things such as kraken drives and overclocking/underclocking.

RoninFrog Posted March 14 Author Share Posted March 14 (edited) I've brought a Mun Stone back to Kerbin. I think I can reuse the same craft to get the Green Sandstone. Spoiler Launching the rocket: Mun intercept: Landing: Rock acquired: Departure burn: Third aerobraking pass: Chutes: Mun Stone complete! Now I just have to get it back to the KSC. ...and Green Sandstone: Spoiler Launch: Maneuver nodes are for newbies: Intercept: Landing: Rock located: Return trajectory: Reentry: Minmus stone acquired! Well I'm 2/12ths of the way done, I'll come back to this later. Edited March 14 by RoninFrog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
