  1. - Single Rocket + MOR + stock parts + own rocket +30 - 3-man Mission +10 - 2-man Lander +10 (yes, I know, it is really rough) - 2-stage Lander (leave the decent-engine on the mün) +20 - No asparagus design. - Escape tower +10 (by the way, it really works while pressing "Abort" button !) - Lander stored behind the CM during ascent +20 - Lander tucked away behind some fairing +5 - Free return trajectory to the mün +10 - Flawless landing +10 - Got a MRV on board +15 - After succesfull Mün landing docked CM and MM in Orbit +10 - MM disposed by crashing it into the Mün +5 - Plant flag on the Mün +3 - Splashing down on Kerbin (land on water) +5 - No dies. - Deploy münar sub-satellite before returning to Kerbin +10 - Land within 1 km of NAM +10 Points - Are we there yet? - 15 points - Drive beyond 10km of the lander - For science! - 10 points - Deploy two experimental packages 2.5km from the landing site (and at least 2.5km from each other) = 208 points. By the way, the crew missed precision landing (under 100m) near Neil Armstrong Memorial. Of course, they have been immediately fired after return. An other crew is actually training to achieve a full goal mission with an improved launcher ! Here is the record (sorry, blocked for Germany... ).
  2. How to ?... Apply a 90° roll along Z axis after lift off ? i.e : made the rocket beering from 0 to 270° while climbing.
  3. The idea is quite simple : a kind of notepad included as new part which should be readable and editable in VAB and in flight. This should act as flight manual, describing some features as action groups, or giving some indications, as burn time for TMI for example. Thanks for reading.
  4. Pappolo XII mission is on the way ! The spacecraft is actually orbiting the Mün. Extra news coming soon !
  5. This MEM looks great ! My launcher is under heavy testing. Mission scheduled soon !
  6. Sure, it's not a strut, and it's not octagonal. A real kerkal name indeed.
  7. Cause this little device is incredibly light and strong, I'm using many of them on my crafts. To reduce the number of parts, I suggest to create a long one as it exists with the Modular Girder Segment. Thx for reading.
  8. I'm working on this great challenge ! I carefully read ONLY first page to be sure to not copy some design. Still need to improve rover, it can actually carry only two MSEPs, but rocket looks nice and weighs only 269t.
  9. Or anything which able any part to rotate on any chosen axis. This should apply for "cargo bay" with "folded" modules or... thrust vectoring.
  10. Finally ! I succeeded in landing three men on Duna with a module able to send them back ! [ATTACH=CONFIG]34519[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]34520[/ATTACH]
  11. My rockets are all named "Satoorn", inspired of course by Saturn ones. This sounds like "ça tourne", which should mean in french "it rocks, it rolls". They are Satoorn Is, for single-place capsules, only used for exploration and improve interplanetary trajectories. And Satoorn IIIs for three-men capsules. Considering my perpetual challenge to only land those big capsules on planets and satellites. Then, there are all divided on different purposes : X for exploration, M for Munar landing abilities, R for RCS Rendez-Vous and Rescue. Then, I'm actually working on Satoorn III Type I, able to land on Ike (and any other satellites) and go back.

    New KSP video

    Everyone should recognize the famous Gene "Krantz" Kermann.
  14. Ah tiens, ça cause Grenouille ici ! Salut les francos.
  15. Actually orbiting around Kerbol... or any other unknown star. By the way, any other attempts results in safe returns.
  16. Hello everyone ! I am just a simple french visitor who was landed on Kerbin to manage the new Kerbal Space Program as newbie rocket engineer ! After fast studies on demo version, I've just to purchase the last KSP version and try to develop a stable and reliable launcher able to send Kerbonauts on the Mun and back them safely and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard. I begin successfully by light project with single place capsule. But seeding three kerbonauts to the Mun was a challenge many much difficult, needing long tries and developments. Then, it now works nicely, and launchers continue to be improved. The Satoorn V Type L rocket is the last development released on launch pad, which allows now to reach new goals and exciting challenges.
