Hello fellow KSP-ers, I come to you with a craft that has been successfully tested, and has saved 3 Kerbalnauts from near certain death on the desolate landscape known as the Mun. After Jeb and Bill successfully landed a luxurious space-lab on the surface, the Space Program decided to launch a few guests. However, the "Cake" was unable to support that many lives. Something had to be done, or they might have had to eat Bill for lunch. After countless <del>minutes</del> hours of tinkering, they came up with a solution - <a href="http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/showthread.php/15016-0-16-Crew-able-empty-pods-0-3"> SENDING MORE THAN ONE CAPSULE AT A TIME!</a> Introducing, the <del>unoriginal</del> COMPLETELY ORIGINAL Mun Rescue Craft! Based off of <a href="
">trydyingtolive's Mun Rocket from .13</a>, and a little bit of craziness, it launches the entire thing into Kerbal orbit, then burns to the Mun. Using the sophisticated <a href="http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/showthread.php/12384-PLUGIN-PART-0-16-Anatid-Robotics-MuMech-MechJeb-Autopilot-v1-9">Autopilot</a>, it then transitions to a Munar orbit, where the landing computer takes over, and puts it down right next to the <del>victims</del> Kerbalnauts, who then board the cramped containers. They then blasted off back to Kerbin, headed home. The lander/return ship has JUST enough fuel to put the craft back onto a <del>collision</del> Return trajectory back. Then comes the tricky part. How to get them safely on the ground? That's where the engineers kicked in their creative juices, and made the pods all have their own chutes. Upon hitting 10,000 meters, all four chutes deploy. After a moment, they eject the capsules, one by one, until the main pilot capsule is safely away from the craft, where they all safely land back on terra firma. HURRAY! Now the "Cake" can happily house Bill and Jeb, as they continue their exploration of the desolate lands of the Mun. Imgur gallery of (most) of the mission can be viewed <a href="http://imgur.com/a/f6LY2">here</a> The first time I used it in a mission, I just about shat myself when it came SCREAMING back to Kerbin. Came in around 3,200 m/s, and I thought it would be certain death for my 4 kerbals. If there's any demand, I'll post the .craft. The necessary add-ons are <del>obvious in the text-block above</del> hidden in the story.
