Just wanted to take a second to say thank you to the mods for KSP. After dealing with the mods on facepunch I can now see in vivid detail just how awesome and fair you guys are. Thank you.

Then maybe it (data transfer) could have a use in deployable rovers that have no innate science capacity. Similar to how the curiosity rover acquires data but does little processing on its own, small range communication between rovers with science instruments and orbiting science-lab laden craft could get around the energy requirements necessary for a science-lab lander. Not having to load a lander with a science lab, a brayton cycle turbine, and a large nuclear reactor would make gathering data off of the surface of a body much simpler and more survivable (recoverable) in cases such as Eve.

If this has been asked before then sorry. I was wondering if you intended to someday use the communotron or similar parts to relay science the way megajoules are currently done. Eg. to transmit research data from vessels at say Laythe back to a rover HQ on Kerbin. It would be extra cool if it drained the science vessel's stash while transfering to the HQ. From there all the data (science) could be uploaded to orbiting vessels in a manner more realistic then docking for data transfer.
