Wow. My little carrier aint got nothing on yours... Also, not nescasary to post the craft file (you can if you want) and I trust you guys enough to let you guys work out your own scores! I will however check them of course

It would be really nice if someone could update this to include how to do IVA views in 0.17

Here's the craft I used for the 416 m/s record Although that craft is a tad bit obselete now. You see, I made some modifications and did another run

Well here is my sorta submission just to show you guys that it is theoretically possible. The reason for sorta is because I just can't seem to figure out how the docking works

The Challenge in this challenge is simple - build something that can classify as a space carrier. For a craft to classify as a carrier it must fit the following criteria: 1 - It must be in space. To fill this criteria the craft must just be able to reach orbit in any way possible 2 - It must be a carrier. The craft must carry smaller craft that can be launched AND retrieved. Now, for competitions sake I have deduced the following scoring system: - You will gain points for the versatility of the craft. 10 points for Kerbin orbit, 20 for Mun orbit, 30 for Minimus orbit and 60 for each planet you can reach from there on (say you go from Kerbin to Duna to Eve, that would be 120 points) - You will gain 10 points for every craft the carrier can carry. - You will gain points if you can prove stock ascent into orbit. This means that if you can prove that your carrier lifted of from the KSC and achieved orbit using stock propulsion and fuel you will have +50 points. Not doing this will mean a -50 point deduction. Please note that mods are not only allowed, but necessary and I would like to encourage them. If you can build a carrier that can carry 10 craft with Ion engines, orbital construction, etc. go ahead! Scoreboard: 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -

I present to you the new 0.17 land speed record! 416 m/s!

I know how to do this! Someone! Quickly make a mod that puts the map view on a screen in the cockpit!

One the way back from my 1st ever return trip from Mun I learnt a very valuable lesson... On why there are only 3 in the pod - I had a bit of a feeling something like this might happen, so to prevent a total loss I left the 3rd guy safely on Mun

I like contingency

I have the LOI Mark III http://dl.dropbox.com/u/84620460/LOI%20Mk%20III.7z It includes a guide

Strangely enough it is actually quite stable. The first time I launched it I fully expected it to wobble itself apart during ascent, but 8 flawless launches later it performed flawlessly! I would just like to suggest NOT using timewarp at all with it as that falls outside it's testing parameters.

We here at EAT have had greater than average idea - to share our special, once off, R&D projects for Challenges (the ones in the Challenges forum thread). Currently we are busy with: The TEL challenge (http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/showthread.php/22877-Transporter-Erector-Launcher-%28TEL%29-Challenge) The goal of this challenge is to design a TEL vehicle, a mobile launchpad. We have actually had a quite successful venture here and are planning to release the prototype later today. The 0.17 stock land speed record (http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/showthread.php/23643-0-17-Stock-Land-Speed-Challenge) As of 2012-10-16 the LSR Mk8, designed by us here at EAT, holds the land speed record in KSP 0.17 The EAT LSR Mk8 can be downloaded from http://dl.dropbox.com/u/84620460/LSR%20Mk8.craft

Welcome to ExtraPlanetal's Aerospace Travel Company! Building badass things since 2012! We here at EAT pride ourselves in building rockets and planes designed to simply work and get you from point A to B with the least amount of pilot effort/skill/intelligence required. Our spacecraft are custom built for anyone who just wants to get somewhere with the least amount of hassle. Since the LOI Mk III we have also begun to include user manuals with all of our designs - meaning we figured out how to fly them so you don't have to! Product List This craft is designed out of only stock parts to get you to any of the other planets we suddenly share space with in laziest way possible - just go up! With it there will be no more unnecessarily complicated ascent adjustments, just let it go up and it will reach interplanetary space in no time! Once there it's long range interplanetary stage can take you wherever you want! Want to go to Jool? No prob! How about Eve? Also no prob! http://dl.dropbox.com/u/84620460/GPIT%20MkV.craft The LOI Mk III is a craft designed to reliably get you to Mun and back, so reliably in fact, one test pilot actually reached Minimus with it! It is also the first of our releases to include an user manual. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/84620460/LOI%20Mk%20III.7z More craft coming soon!

Behold a nice little pic I took of one of Jool's moons

My friend, I have spacewalked on Jool's surfrace [ATTACH=CONFIG]33533[/ATTACH] Nothing surprises me
