The Hermes Program (RSS Challenge)
Rolanvorxariat replied to HoloYolo's topic in KSP1 Challenges & Mission ideas
Not many people use RSS, and Mercury is a pain in the ass. So that might be the reason. -
Sorry for the hiatus, again. The graduation ceremonies and things like that got in the way of writing, but now, that doesn't matter, because SCHOOL IS OVER. So, expect more frequent updates, and (Hopefully) higher quality content. Beikowsji, Kerbals' Republic of Kina, DKP Mission Director Anastasia Korolevski's office Anastasia sighed as she turned her eyes to the countless papers on her desk. This was largest solar flare since the 1652 Central Ages catastrophe, and even though it was the EGU that got the full hit, the Kenjian, Bailongjian, and Gennsoo Provinces are in despair. The Neo-Kaszi Soscialismo party was and still is gaining support in Feranian and the Keoman area, and violent protests were commonplace. She was afraid that there would be a huge increase in military funding, and the only way they could get support to continue the Duna efforts were the people and media, but the info about the incidents were being suppressed, probably for the better. Funding had already been heavily cut from the victory on Duna for the Kapitolist Pigs, though now the government is putting all their funding towards the satellite replacement and orbital debris "removal" (Tractor beams, heavily still in testing). But what worried her the most was the loss of contact with the crew. The propaganda ministry has denied all such events, along with the Ike ascent "anomaly", which has caused a large surge in mindless conspiracy theories, though at least the "Fake Duna/Ike landings" conspiracy was growing unpopular. The crew was probably panicking about what to do, but they were probably safe. She sat down, thinking about what might have actually happened. The Best minds in the Agency are currently trying to brainstorm ways to re-establish contact with the crew, with the only plan being for the crew to salvage on of the old Firestar probes, which were scattered around Duna, though only 2, the Mapk rover and Apec 3penNmwe Lander are still operational. Of course, they could try to salvage one of the older probes, and there were two probes-one lost contact during landing, and the other's solar panels were destroyed in a storm- were within 20 kilometers of the Dunnily Kolliniy's base site. She took out a pencil and turned on the television to KCTV News, where the reporters were covering the recovery events occurring in the Ekranian continent. She walked up and went over to his cabinet to pour herself some Vodkerb. Vodkerb was the solution to every problem. Vodkerb is holy and should be worshipped by everyone. She took a sip, and then went on to have all the mission directors report their progress. All the reports for the other missions. However, the report from the Kermlincom Spy Satellite network have detected that the UCKK's Ike landing efforts have been aborted, and the UCKK is panicking about an unknown cause- the KKGB spies are still on their perilous return to the motherland- But the higher Kerskosmos Officials believe that there might have been an incident, possibly a collision or explosion- that destroyed their craft. She was still pondering around when he heard a knock on the door. "Identify yourself." "Vice Administrator Ested Keonov. Testimony 1332." "Come on in." The Mission Director walked in, and the vice-admin shook her hand. "What brings you here, Ested?" "We are in a time of great crisis. The EGU, one of our komrades, is falling apart, West Serachioa is demanding independence from the Kommunist Kemi Regime, but those are matters the officials and the Premier handle. But, komrade Anastasia, I am seeing you to discuss the situation... about the Dunnily Kolliny Programme. I have bad news and worse news." "Please don't tell me Kerkenko has cancelled Dunnily 2 and 3. Please. Have mercy, for science..." "Unfortunately, that is the bad news. The current situation means that we cannot allocate ze so many fundings into ze Space Programme, as that money needs to go to mantaining the EGU and building up our military to defend our glorious Koviet Nation, and public opinion thinks Kerbin is more important than Duna. However, the oligarchs, especially Ikora Sergen, the CEO of Kosneft, have been suggesting a manned mining expedition to exploit Eve, but that is a discussion for another day." "Drop the bomb, Admin. What's the worse news?" "The crew have lost contact, as you know, but after analysis of the data you gave the science officers, they had determined that the Ktalin IAV is on a close encounter with the DOK. It will likely collide, and the whole crew is at risk of dying. And remember that message we sent past Duna to interstellar space? The binary one? It may have been answered, from within the Duna system. Why do we think this? Well, the UCKK Ike lander has been most likely destroyed, but we analyzed its orbit, and it was on collision course with an anomaly. We used the Yanglee-Wheii Space Telescope and the whole Kirke Network to take some of the toughest to take pictures ever, and- here look." The Admin opened up his Linuks Laptop and showed her the images. "áòÑÂтþõ ôõрьüþ..." "A distortion in space-time. And it appears to be that there is an object at the center of it." The Mission Director zoomed in on the picture as much as she could, and noticed a small, blackish-green object a few pixels across in the center. But what caused her nearly to faint was that there was a 6 pixel tall object, pitch black, except for one pixel- a unnaturally high resolution 1-pixel wide spot with the resolution of a 720-sized spot, that said, in clear, white words, "SQUAD".

Isn't Bill just short for William? I call Bill Kerman William Kerman sometimes, because reasons. Reasons. Name.

I play 1.0.2 to do future versions of my career, but I kept my .90 install so I could finish my Pre-1.0 missions. Oh, and did I mention mods?

Good luck guessing, and rep for the first correct guess! Umm... Ike?

What small mistakes did you make that ruined your mission?
Rolanvorxariat replied to syfyguy64's topic in KSP1 Discussion
On a Jool mission, I was supposed to first got to Tylo and detach the Tylo lander, then go to Vall, but I went to Vall first and accidentally detached the top probe part of the Tylo Lander, thinking it was the Vall lander, before I found my reference sheet and realized I screwed up, and I had already quicksaved. I will not land on Tylo today. -
