Land on the Mun with a Satellite Orbiting

[Ydoow]

Seems like this should be a decent challenge, no?

Your goal is to land on the Mun AND put a satellite into orbit around the Mun.

It doesn\'t matter if you put the satellite into orbit, then land,

or if you land, leave behind a craft and then launch yourself (as the satellite) into orbit.

Some Rules:

1) No config edits, this is a challenge not a 'I changed the game to make this easy'

2) You can can use whatever packs you want, but remember this is a challenge. Avoid overpowered equipment

3) What lands on the Mun should look like some type of craft that appears like it could return home

i.e. leaving behind a liquid fuel tank does not count

It is not required that it is actually able to return to kearth though.

4) Same thing applies to the satellite.

space junk != satellite in this case.

The point is that this satellite is to appear to be able to communicate with the landing craft

5) We need pictures of course. I think your best bet is to grab a picture of your landing craft on the Mun, and another picture of the orbital view.

You may want to add more pictures depending on which order you go (satellite > landing or landing > satellite)

You get mega bonus points for returning to kearth safely

You get chuck norris status if you manage to return both to kearth (you can\'t return either one until both requisites have been met).

Obviously 1 of those pieces isn\'t going to survive the landing lol

If you manage to do that...well...holy crap is all I can say.

I did that a while back (and returned home), but didn\'t take pictures. I\'ll try to dig out my Kerbollo 10 ship and do it again...

Wouldn\'t this be a subset of Satellite observation (http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=3941.0) ?

Yus. Yus it would.

I did not see that at the time of posting :-[
