Mostly I just want to "steal science from the future". If I can get a basic probe out to Duma or something to make it easier to get my science from mun then that's great. I'm working on my first lander now. This version hasn't exploded for no reason yet. Lol

Ok cool. So if I had a lab on the probe to reset my experiments, could I send over and over again until I got all of the possible science? Thanks for the fast replies. It's appreciated Just sending multiple probes would probably be easier, and funner haha

I've been playing KSP for a whole now but I've just decided to try my first probe fly by of a planet. What I need to know and that no other thread seems to answer exactly is: if I do science with a probe and transmit the data back home, I only get 40% of the science max. But! Of that 60% that didn't get sent, is it gone forever? Can I use a lab to reset the experiments and then re do and re send them for more science? Or can I land and return to kerbin after the transmission to get that 60%? By sending data am I permanently sacrificing that 60%?
