~KSR Mission~
Hello everyone!
In this short episode just a quick report of the recovery of the Science from Mun and Minmus!
And yes, KSR stands for Kerbin Science Recovery, how original?
First is the tank stage decoupled
Then a way back is plotted!
Getting away...
Just a quick moon assist to slow down even more
Little bit of manoeuvring got me 1.8 kilometres away from the KSS!
And there she is!
Docked! (also with the cargo shuttle attached)
Because the shuttle doesnt have a science container, the science has to be transferred by hand
Sadly the shuttle is already manned by Jeb, Bill,
Bob and Valentina so the unlucky kerbal has to wait for a while
Decoupled!
going to lower orbit
Thanks to quicksafe i found out that a kind of steep descent works best
Coming in for the KSC!
My thanks goes out to mechjeb and quicksafe for this beautiful approach
Last bit of thrust to get some speed
Touchdown!
And there they are! four brave kerbals to recover the first science from outer Kerbin!
Valentina has the honour
Yeahh!!! 860 science from the Kerbin system!!!
Some cool medals for the crew, not that much tho
and that concludes this short (sorry) episode!
Greetings!

WOW!
And cool vehicles!
Edit: Really crazy crafts!
Edit 2: Your double plane contraption is definetly unique, amazing!
Thanks! hopefully I will get some more time to do some more episodes

1) Are you an enthusiastic person?
2) How do you rate your enthusiasm?
3) If Enthusiasm were a color, what color would it be?
4) What kind of enthusiasm do you most commonly sprinkle on your breakfast?
5) Are you at all, in any way, aware of what the word "sad" means?...
how did you know?...
but you forgot one question
6) how high can you junp out of pure joy?

~KHASE~
Hello fellow Kerbonautistics!
In the last part we covered the last exploration of Mun and Minmus.
Now we're going to do the last part on kerbin!
First of all we launched some spacecraft:
The KeGS , another Gravity Scanner, but for Kerbin.
And what's in here?...
Oh yeah!! a flyable rocketplane!
It is named KHASE. Named after his mission: Kerbin High Atmosphere and Space Exploration.
It will Explore the Atmospheric fluid data of all the biomes on Kerbin and low space data.
After some burns and exploration the last stage is ditched.
To get from equatorial orbit to polar orbit, I performed a gravity assist from mun...
And what a beauty of a gravity assist it became!!!
Oh don't show off you vain thing!
Performing a little correction burn back in Kerbin's SOI
Entering the atmosphere was quite an odd feeling
And doing polar science!
Polar orbits are ideal for this stuff!
Last biome, deserts, covered!!!!
33 science...
3 science experiments on 11 biomes 
A fiery re-entry
Yes... this is backwards... coming in like a twisted dung
But landed safely! (thanks quicksafe for this^^)
Now a rescue mission will pick it up and extract the data! And yes, this plane will do the job
Grabbed him!... backwards
And took it back to KSC
Put him down on the runway
Luckily it had some RCS over so it could roll back to a parking spot
And BAM!!! The KHASENP whas launched
And where does KHASENP stand for you ask?
... well, Kerbin High Atmosphere and Space Explorer but Not a Plane
Heading for KSC
Another fiery reentry!
Aaand....
Touchdown!
Time to pick up some science!
Milking KHASE
And roving to KHASENP
Oh that juicy science!
Time to pass it on!
And the last mission is underway on Kerbin, the Gravity Scanner, scanning every biome
And also this one was downed near the KSC, intentionally of course
And flew the grabbing plane to it and back to KSC
A brave kerbal stood on the wing to pass on the science
And all the science gathered!
And look at this!!!!
Yes.... 526 science!!!!!
All the science on Kerbin gathered and in one place!!!! :))))
Look at the content below for science overview of KerbinSpoilerBiome: Ground Fly Low Fly High Space low Space High
Ice Caps = 10 = 4 = 1 = 2 = 1
Northern Ice Shelf = 10 = 4 = 1 = 2 = 1

Badlands = 10 = 4 = 1 = 2 = 1
Shores = 10 = 4 = 1 = 2 = 1
Water = 18 = 4 = 1 = 2 = 1
Global = - = 3 = 6 = 5 = 6Microbiomes = 10 x 31 = 310
Totals = = 418 = 47 = 17 = 27 = 17
Total science = 418 + 47 + 17 + 27 + 17 = 526
In the next part we will recover the science from Mun and Minmus and look further in the solar system!

Jeez, your a damn smart person, you don`t need help for crafts for sure, your contraptions seem to work excellent... very cool and missionoriented ship and plane designs!
Take it easy!
well... thanks
lets see if all works out that well

~From Mun to Minmus with love~
hey everyone!
Okay, so we left Mun 90% explored in the last part.. how about 100% for Mun AND Minmus in this part?
Okay, so I sent my Mun/Minmus Gravity Scanner to get every biome, due to the nuclear propulsion,
I could go everywhere easily
Getting every biome...
And there you have the gravity data of all 17 biomes!
Back again to the Mun Space Station!
Wow!! 215 data! all the Mun data
Okay! time to go onwards to Minmus! The engine/fuel stage is ditched...
...And a fresh new tanker comes in
Onwards to Minmus! Both the MuSS and the MM Gravity Scanner are going
Departing literally 2 minutes behind each other
There it is! The biggest ice cream in the known universe!
Decoupling the MM Explorer. Because it has 2200 deltaV, is can do 6 biomes at one time on minmus.
Given that Minmus only has 9 biomes, it didn't took long for me to complete this mission
Just some nice shots here for you guys to enjoy
And the MM Gravity Scanner just collected all the 9 biomes!
It has 2000 deltaV left from Mun so it was also done quickly
And there we are already docked to the Station! Transferrering sweet science!
And here you go! Can you see it?...
Ohhh yes you can!!! 334 science!!!!
That means 215 + 119 science data... Mun and Minmus 100% explored!!!!!!!!!!How cool is that? :0
See content below to see the calculation of Minmus scienceSpoilerBiome: Landed Low High
Poles = 9 = 2 = 1
Lowlands = 9 = 2 = 1
Midlands = 9 = 2 = 1
Highlands = 9 = 2 = 1
Slopes = 9 = 2 = 1
Flats = 9 = 2 = 1
Lesser Flats = 9 = 2 = 1
Great Flats = 9 = 2 = 1
Greater Flats = 9 = 2 = 1
Totals = 81 = 18 = 9Global =- = 5 = 6
Total = 108 + 5 + 6 = 119
In the next episode we will look further to Kerbin
And maybe launch some crafts for Eve, our lovely harsh mistress XDStay tuned!

An electric propeller/ducted fan.
Would definately be cool !

True,
onlyjust the idea for this endevour is real tough, despite attempting it for real... even if you manage the half or a third of all the science /biomes and whatnots... take your time and keep the fun!
will do
just one small steps at the time, but greats steps for kerbalkind ^^
minmus for example will be done in one afternoon, that makes the kerbin system almost explored

Hey @Ferdoni
You`re a awesome person. Your crafts and missionreport is truely crazy, best of luck!
You`ve got a real amazing adventure going on here...thanks man, i saw all the work going on on this forum and i thought, "hey, nobody tried this before"
eve is going to be a tough mistress tough

~Onwards to Mun!~
Hello everyone!!
Took me a week to make another episode due to some small holiday stuff
Onwards to Mun! The Mun Space Station and the Mun-Minmus Explorer are both in a eqatorial orbit around Mun.
The MM Explorer is able to explore around 2 or 3 biomes (depending on how far away the landing sites are from each other)Considering that the Mun has 17 biomes, there is a lot of work to do! But it's done with thanks to Mechjeb
See the content below for a total of Mun science expirements
SpoilerExpirements = Landed (9) = Space low (2) = Space high (1)
Poles
Polar Lowlands
Polar Crater
Highlands
Highland Craters
Midlands
Midland Craters
Lowlands
Northern Basin
Farside Basin
Northwest Crater
East Farside Crater
Canyons
Farside Crater
East Crater
Twin Craters
Southwest CraterTotal Biomes 153 34 17
Global Expirements 0 5 6
Total = 153 = 39 = 23 = 215
I landed on every biome possible, doing the EVA and Gravity scans just above the surface, and the rest while on the surface
On board I had an scientist to restore the Mystery Goo and the Materials bay.
It gave me 11 data per Biome, considering I had done the 5 space low and 6 biome experiments at this point, i had 71 science (66 + 5)To get the Space High gravity scans, i launched a small new probe with around 6000 deltaV, the Mun Gravity Scanner or MuGS
Because of his awful lot of deltaV, it could just go everywhere i wanted, not requiring efficient manoeuvring
The rest of the Biomes did go very well and gave me beautiful shots!To do the last 3 biomes, poles, polar lowlands and polar crater, I did a burn to give me a polar orbit
Perfect!
I can strongly promote a visit to the Mun's poles! just how beautiful..
On the Mun Space Station there is a science container to easily collect all the data
And there we are! last science gathered!Look at this! 193 science data!!!
That means 193/215 = 90% explored!!!!
If you see the total Mun expirements you can see that the total 'landed' and 'space low (including global science)' science data is 192.
This is because I "accidently did a gravity experiment above the Mun's midlands. So the MuGS only has to cover 16 instead of 17 biomesIn the next part we will do the last Mun expirements and go on to Minmus!!
Maybe we will cover the last Kerbin experiments, but only if i have the timeStay tuned!!

there's the time I was flying a plane through a layer of clouds, and came out just in time to see a mountain right before burying myself into the side of it.
wauw, really epic and tracic...

Ow my… Awesome Idea! I hope it doesn’t get repetitive though. I’m really impressed if you would able to finish everything. Do you have any idea how long it will take to finish this mission?
thanks! well I'd like to show everyone how you could do this and the best way to explore every biome. in all episodes i try to show something extra like for fun or interesting.
well... a couple of weeks for sure... maybe in the range of 2-3 months

Hello everyone!!
This morning a very sad accident occured. During an eva test on the launch pad, a kerbal fell of the stairs and exploded...
This gave me the question:
What is the most tragic kerbal death you caused?
-
scott manley and very, very many kabooms...
-
launched a rocket while a was driving/going to school/eating etc...
the reason... MechJeb!!!!
-
i manage the ksp burnout by pausing for a couple of days/weeks
does anyone recognize the thing that you do stuff in ksp while doing other stuff outside the game as well? for example, i watch a series while launching and manoeuvring with mechjeb.
-
anti-podal klysteroxykloride
don't know what it is but jeb told me
-
since ksp is a spacegame, it should be made 4d
-
is your ksp folder in the cloud? (like i have?)

Visual Enhancement? Realism?
well, you shouldnt implement something that does require action and just for estatics. it should go automatically or put it in the settings for example
-
2 hours ago, Space_taco said:
for example if i switched from the Mk-2 Crew cabin Seat to the Cockpit Seat
(I Moved) but internally
not that kind of activity, just moving around in the spacecraft
-
50 minutes ago, Space_taco said:
yeah if that was possible than maybe you can switch seats?
what do you mean, switch seats?
-
2 hours ago, Space_taco said:
nice one
yeah but i meant physically moving around
what is the difference? in this mod you could go everywhere in your spacecraft. used it myself al lot
-
here's another one that did the job in 1.0 very well. but i think it should indeed be implemented for stock. thats because to give you more 'to do' inside a spacecraft

Gather... ALL the Science!!! (every science expirement possible)(Kerbin system 100% explored!!

~Departure Party and Mohole (not) in one!~
Hello everyone!!
Finally we came to our launch windows and departured the first vessels!
The first one to leave is the Duna fleet, consisting of
Ike Explorer
Ike Relay (BIG relay probe)
Ike Ore Scanner and Relay (carrying two relay probes)
Duna Explorer
Ike Explorer
Ike Ore Scanner and Relay (BIG relay)
Ike Relay (carrying two relay probes)
Duna Explorer
Second to depart is the the Moho fleet! This only consists of two vessels:
Moho Explorer and Moho Ore Scanner and Relay
Since the Moho vessels will be the first to arrive, we will be starting at moho first!
And circulizing around moho costed me quite a bit of deltaV.... luckily, I packed a bunch!
The MoOS-RY got even more so no problemo!
And I got immediately in a polar orbit, great!
Deorbiting the Explorer
For the first time in Kerbal History, I landed on Moho!
Hopping to the biomes
This was the moment I realised... I'M an IDIOT!
I didn't add an ore container so my ore drills wouldn't work...
So I launched a replacement part but meanwhile I had to do some capturing at Duna
But the part arrived!
And the exploration continues!
I explored 4 biomes so far on Moho (and global low space):
Highlands, Midlands, Minor Craters and South Eastern Lowlands
More of Moho to come in the next episode!
I'm really curious if you guys would like to see more other stuff, like ship buildings etc.
Let me know!
Greetings and happy kabooms!
