  1. That was a close call for David on the first orbital flight. Good thing he managed to return. This is progressing nicely.
  2. Awaiting launch to the station. Venture 26 and 27, space station missions Minmus Exploration Program, expanding the frontier Relayer 3 and Mapper 5, satellites to Minmus Local science, in the air and on the ground
  3. More kerbals join the ranks; pilots Stary and Albart, engineers Katbus, Desster and Seepond, and scientists Lisa, Tandin and Gratop. Emprise II, launching the first module of the new station Venture 25, a historic event
  4. Testing the Munar Landing Vehicle. SET-8, final test of the new LES Venture 23, unkermanned flight of Block 4 SET-9, testing the Munar Landing Vehicle Venture 24, full Mun landing rehearsal
  5. A new launch vehicle lifts off from the space center. Relayer 1A/2A, second attempt to launch comsats Muna 11, final sample return mission SET-6, first launch of a Celerity rocket Venture, Quest and Shepherd, upgraded spacecraft SET-7 through 7B, testing a new launch escape system End of Year Report (Y5)
  6. Wow! That was one heck of a journey. I enjoyed ever step of it (even the crew rotations ). Superbly done, especially considering stock limitations. If you decide to start another one, whatever and whenever that may be, I'll be sure to follow it.
  7. The second Mun mission stands ready on the launch pad. Venture 21, orbiting the Mun Venture 22, satellite repair mission Coming up next: Testing new hardware
  8. The view that awaits the crew of Venture 20. SilverDart, first circumglobal flight Relayer 1/2, communication satellites Venture 20, first kermanned flyby of the Mun Coming up next: Attempting a repair in orbit
  9. The new Velocity VA launch vehicle is the first to use solid rocket boosters. Venture 19, first flight of Venture Block 3 SET-4 and 5, testing command module reentry Muna 10, another sample return Coming up next: Kerbals to the Mun
  10. A new probe heading for the Mun. SilverDart, first flight SET-1 through 3B, testing the sample return capsule Muna 9, first sample return mission Coming up next: Preparing Venture for the Mun
  11. Glad I could be of some help. The engine plates and structural tubes are probably my favourite new stock parts. They're very versatile. Keep up the good work. Your replicas are really nice. I especially like the Soyuz spacecraft you put together (though why we didn't get proper parts for it in Making History is beyond me).
  12. Ground inspection of a new aircraft. Muna 7, aiming for the highlands Munar Exploration Program, moving forward Muna 8, returning a probe from orbit Palantir Kerbin, government satellite SilverDart, inspecting a new jet aircraft End of Year Report (Y4) Coming up next: Returning samples from the Mun
  13. I'm not sure if this is exactly what you were thinking of, but here's one way to make an interstage: From top to bottom we have a fuel tank, an engine plate with an engine attached to it, a stack separator with staging disabled (it is attached to the bottom node of the engine plate), a decoupler, and finally another fuel tank. The decoupler jettisons the lower fuel tank (which would be part of the first stage of the rocket). The engine can then ignite. While the engine is burning, the built-in decoupler drops the shroud and separator. The separator is there just to have a hollow item at the bottom of the shroud. A structural tube would work just as well.
  14. A Velocity IV rocket launches another lander. Local science, training continues Muna 5, third landing attempt Emprise, saying good bye to the station Muna 6, a different approach Coming up next: End of the fourth year
  15. Testing a lander at the KSC. Venture 18, last visit to Emprise Mapper 4, documenting the munar surface Muna 1, contact reestablished Muna 3 and 4, first landing attempts Whirlwind Mk2, flight testing a new version Coming up next: Training, landings and the end of Emprise
  16. A probe heading for the Mun. Mapper 3, scanning Kerbin Venture 16, third mission to Emprise station Munar Exploration Program, the next step forward Venture 17, testing a new launch vehicle Muna 1 and 2, first probes in Munar orbit Venture 17, returning home Palantir Mun, keeping an eye on the Mun Coming up next: Landing on the Mun
  17. Buzz Kerman going on a spacewalk at the new station. Emprise, the first space station Venture 13, testing an improved launch vehicle Venture 14, first visit to the station Mapper 2, continuing Kerbin research Venture 15, another space tourist Quest 1 and 2, resupplying Emprise End of Year Report (Y3) Coming up next: Start of the Mun program
  18. I've added a flight log to the first post. It lists all missions (excluding science farming around the KSC and such) in chronological order. Also, I've decided to try and post updates regularly every tuesday and friday. Hopefully my work schedule, and my motivation, will allow that.
  19. Two Venture spacecraft facing each other in orbit. VTV-1 and Venture 9, first docking in space Venture 10 and 11, emergency crew transfer test Venture 12, space tourism SCAR-5, Minmus flyby Coming up next: Launching the first space station
  20. No worries. I edited the patch to work with NEBULA Decals Continued. Looks great.
  21. Awesome! Thank you so much! The space program will adopt it in year 5 (which is where I'm at in the game). You don't happen to have the patch without the text?
  22. New kerbonauts; pilots Wehrsted, Thompdous and Verfal, engineers Buzz and Ferny, and scientists Gersen and Janson. Local science, kerbonauts in training Venture 7, maiden flight of Block 2 Venture 8, first two-kerman crew Mapper 1, mapping Kerbin Coming up next: Dockings, tourists and probing Minmus
  23. Testing a new launch escape system. SCAR-4, Mun flyby Venture 6A, if at first you don't succeed Venture Test 7 through 9, testing Block 2 End of Year Report (Y2) Coming up next: New year, new missions, new kerbonauts
