  1. You could do Kerbin-Minmus-Mun-Kerbin.Use the Mun to slingshot yourself to Minmus.
  2. I originally posted it in General Discussion , but someone moved it.
  3. Great job!My first other planet was Duna , visited it today in a manned craft.Even if Duna was my first , i spend some time around Jool's moons.
  4. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InojNvVc9L8 Nothing special , i was building a Katyusha rocket launcher (and you can see how bad i am at design with panels) when the kraken attacked.I forgot to put struts on it.
  5. When Baryshnikov docks onto Katyusha , the resulting ship should be over 9000 megaFonzie then.
  6. That's a really nice looking satellite you got there
  7. Do you activate the engine in the same time you decouple? At that altitude the nuclear engine wouldn't work the way you want it too anyway , it doesn't have the thrust to lift things on Kerbin
  8. It took me some time to realise that i made a mistake when i wasted fuel to enter the orbit of Vall.Oh , well.Challange accepted!] Suicide burn at 40km and at ~900m/s.I used all my RCS fuel to slow down as much as possible.I had many failed attempts. And challange successful:
  9. So , i went to Vall.Right now i have a periapsis of ~130km and apoapsis of ~460km. I don't want surprises , i will ask again: Does parachutes work on Vall? Also i have 127 Liquid Fuel and 155 oxidizer. I got some nice pics as well Vall and Tylo Jool and Laythe
  10. What moon could i land on?Right now i have an encounter with Tylo , but i don't think i can land there using only the nuclear engine (since it has no atmosphere i don't think the chute works there). So , Laythe or Vall?
  11. And i still have some fuel.This is the first time one of my rockets sees another planet.
  12. Encounter with Jool on the way and I still have lot's of fuel.I am very excited.
  13. I got an intercept with Jool.I might have enough fuel to land on 1 of it's moons , but i don't really know.To Jool with a stock rocket , without refuelling?
  14. Now it has 10 219 m/s in low kerbin orbit , the question is "Will i ever get an intercept with another planet?".Katyusha is in a good orbit to get to Duna , but i might have to wait a few years to actually get an interception.
  15. Here you go http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/0-18-1-kerbal-engineer-redux-v0-5/
  16. I did some modifications.This are the results: Without the side engines and with 2 side fuel tanks it has a total Delta V of 12 961 m/s Without the side engines and with 4 side fuel tanks it has a total Delta V of 14 242 m/s Without the side fuel tanks it has a total Delta V of 10 982 m/s With any engine it is something below Stripped everything that wasn't necessary and this is the result , this time the Redux is set to Kerbin.This is the final look: Edit: 1 more minor change. I changed the Rockomax Brand Adapter with the Rockomax Brand Adapter 02 and gained 1 m/s Delta V
  17. Straight up launch to Mun.I wanted to test the thrust of "Baryshnikov"
  18. It would be a good idea to drop a couple of nuclear engines.The stage 1 itself has a TWR of 1.15 on Kerbin.
  19. I am not a really good flyer , but it think i made one of my best rockets for interplanetary travel.It's name is Baryshnikov and it's the result after i combined the Interplanetary Joe Mk1 with the Minmus Flyer. It has a solar panels and batteries because it was supposed to be a part of a small statio ; and i forgot to add solar panels to the main part of the station. But less of the story and more of the details.I am not good at all at interplanetary flights , i never got an encounter with any planet , yet i played a lot of KSP.Baryshnikov proved to be extremely strong reaching a stabble orbit around Kerbin with the Rockomax Mainsail still having fuel. My request is to see how far can this thing go , if anyone could help me i would appreciate very much (as in "can it reach Duna?").Baryshnikov is stock parts only , pic and craft file below.And don't thrust the engineering redux , i was messing around with the buttons and at the moment i presses F1 it was set on Mun.I removed that part for the file.Don't put this in your main save file , i don't want to corrupt your saves if anything happens.In the folder "saves" make a new folder and name it what ever you want , copy paste the inside of your main save there and add Baryshnikov to the Ships/VAB file. http://www.2shared.com/file/P6YL5CPn/Baryshnikov.html? Posting this makes me feel awkward. Edit : Added the right pic
  20. I will make special flags for Baryshnikov and Katyusha , my favorite rockets.
  21. But i had only the Soviet Parts and the better aerodynamics mod ._.
  22. Fixed it after i reinstalled KSP.Tommorow Katyusha is going either to Duna or Eve.
