Impressive! I thought it couldn't be done with stock parts, but I guess I was wrong. Now I can finally be saved from Nara (Read my location).

The Hyperion Program: Kerbalkind's Return to Space
Autochrome replied to Autochrome's topic in KSP1 Mission Reports
THP - Interlude I (This is basically a lore post, just to clear up some things about the story if you were confused at all. I might update this interlude more later if required) Forty-five years ago, the Adventure Program and the agency KASA were created by the several nations of Kerbin to explore space and set up kerbalkind's continuous presence in the final frontier. The small KSC was built on a peninsula around the equator, a few launch sites were constructed, and the rocket made for the Mun, the Sarnus IV, was designed. The acme of the program was when Neil A. Kerman became the first kerbal to walk on the Mun on Adventure XI with this rocket, after a few years of hard work by these nations. This mission was followed by a few other increasingly ambitious missions until everything went to hell. A few of the Kerbin countries in the space union declared war on the others for petty reasons, starting a world war, lasting nearly half a decade. By the end of it, only a few of the other nations remained, which they all formed a coalition with each other to survive. The conditions of Kerbin started to improve again, with a weakened and underfunded KASA only being able to send small, simplistic probes to the neighboring planets of Kerbin, but it would be years until kerbals would be able to go to space again with the limited amount of resources, until the Hyperion Program, almost half a century after the Adventure Program collapsed. With the help of Werner Von Kerman, a veteran scientist from the Adventure Program, and the few engineers at KASA going on strike, the nations in the coalition and the president of Kerbin were able to build up enough resources for another space program, the Hyperion Program, and to at last go back to space. The five kerbonauts that KASA had been able to keep in their darker years were Jebediah, Bill, Bob, Valentina, and Denzer Kerman, with hope to gain more with larger funding. These kerbonauts are the kerbals that KASA plans to send back to the surface of the Mun and beyond, to the nearby planets of the Kerbolar System. The vehicles that the engineers had designed for the Hyperion Program were able to be upgraded in the long run to increase reusability and payloads of the rockets, and enable longer stays on the celestial bodies that the kerbal species plans to visit. For example, the 'Iliad' Mun lander of the program was made to be upgraded to fit more kerbals inside, from two to three, and to deliver bigger payloads to the surface of the Mun. The engineers hope these upgrades will allow kerbalkind to expand out into the solar system permanently, after the premature end of the Adventure Program. (I hope this interlude was able to explain some backstory and the future the Hyperion Program, and make sure to ask any questions if you have any)- 74 replies

The Hyperion Program: Kerbalkind's Return to Space
Autochrome replied to Autochrome's topic in KSP1 Mission Reports
THP - Chapter 8, Part II: Odysseus V After its bigger brother, the Hyperion IV, having been launched for its rendezvous mission on Hyperion IV-I, the Hyperion I is ready to bring the Odysseus spacecraft up to meet with the docking structure and Kerbin Departure Stage to head to the Mun. The kerbonauts selected for this flyby mission are Denzer, Valentina, and Bill Kerman, who have flown together two times now on previous Kerbin orbit missions. After the sun has set on the horizon of the KSC and TSC 39B, the three crew board the vehicle for the trip of a lifetime to go to where no kerbal has gone in 45 years. (Note: This part of the chapter is dark in lighting at most times, so sorry about that, a bit of that could not be helped) Mission Report:- 74 replies
