Godammit Nem .-.

Back in my day we didn't even have a tracking station! Until they added it 2 updates later. 0.12 vet.

I'm pretty sure nearly everyone on this forum follows it. And on a more relevant topic, yea, my largest ship is the Kerbol, here's a pic.

Thats one beast of a ship!

Can I have some feedback?

Chapter 12: A Shocking Pair Of Discoveries 15 minutes after landing. Kenemone: Jeb, you're sure you want to go outside? You just had PTSD flashbacks. Jeb: That was just from reentry, and Gilberry passed out reminded me of Bob, it won't happen again, I promise. I'll be fine. *Kenemone hesitates, then nods.* Kenemone: Go give some awesome first words. *Jeb grins and nods, exiting the capsule with his suit on.* Jeb: Today, the Kerbal race went further than it ever has before. Tommorow, we venture further. We're going to make great discoveries and push ourselves further. Per audacia ad astra. Through boldness, to the stars! Kenemone: Beautiful. Plant that flag and the rest of us 'll come out. Jeb: Got it. *Jeb walks a few steps and takes the flag from his back, planting it.* Kenemone: Nice. Come on, everyone. *The crew begins to exit the capsule, Gilberry and Kenemone investigating the stuck landing legs, the other 3 scientists going around investigating things, and as Bob exits, Jeb approaches him.* Jeb: Nice change of scenery, right? Bob: Yep. *Jeb trips and falls in the sand on his face, putting a crack in his helmet.* Bob: Jeb! Jeb: Oh Kod, a hole! In my helmet- wait, why can I still breathe? Bob: Oh my Kod... *Jeb completely removes his helmet.* *The others rush over.* Kenemone: Jeb, have you gone mad? Jeb: No. I can breathe fine. Air's a bit thin but, I can still breathe. Kenemone: Oh my.. Shepley: Fascinating! The atmosphere is breathable! *Everyone begins taking off their helmets and inhaling.* Kenemone: How did Kassini not detect this? Shepley: Maybe it's instruments were bugged. Also, it did only record things during aerobraking. Kenemone: That's a possibility. Bob: Quite a good one. But for now, lets just enjoy the fact that we can breathe here! Gilberry: Woo! Derfrod: Marvelous! Philgan: Derfrod, this gives me some hope to find life. And cause you and me are the best qualified to look for that, lets go! *Derfrod nods and the 2 of them run to the sea.* Bob: Well this is... nice. To say the least! Jeb: Yea. Meanwhile, over by Derfrod and Shepley... Shepley: There's got to be something here! Derfrod: Maybe we should have brought the microscope? Philgan: Good point. But first, lets see if there is any multicellular life. Derfrod: Alright. *Derfrod kneels down next to the shore.* Philgan: See anything? *Philgan kneels next to him.* Derfrod: No, maybe we sho- there! Philgan: What? Derfrod: I saw something move! *Philgan and Derfrod wade out into the shallow water.* Philgan: Keep your eyes peeled! Derfrod: Don't need to remind me! There! *Philgan quickly grabs a silver tadpole-like creature.* Philgan: Gotcha! Derfrod: Oh my Kod! It's living! Philgan: We found extraterrestrial life! Derfrod: If there is animals, there has to be plants, too, right? *Philgan puts the creature back into the water and puts his helmet on.* Philgan: I didn't see any land-based ones, so maybe they're underwater? Only one way to find out. Derfrod: You look, I'll go tell the others! Philgan: Right. *Philgan starts swimming deeper.* Derfrod: HEY! EVERYONE! WE FOUND TADPOLE THINGS! Jeb: What? Derfrod: COME LOOK! *Everyone rushes over.* Jeb: Where's Philgan and these creatures? Derfrod: Philgan's looking for underwater plants, and if you'll come wade in with me, I'll show you one of the creatures. *They all wade in, then seeing Philgan emerge with a bit of green seaweed.* Philgan: Plants... check. *Derfrod scoops up a creature.* *Everyone crowds around the 2, in awe of the 2 simple organisms.* Jeb: Wow.. Bob: Oh my kod... Kenemone: Fascinating... Gilberry: Fantastic! Shepley: Woah. *Derfrod puts the creature down.* Jeb: Well, we all know what this means. Tommorow, we're heading back to the Endeavour, and the first thing we're doing is telling Burbart and Mission Control.

Chapter 11: Landing Jeb: Alright, now that we've done a full orbit with no problems, lets head down to the surface. Everyone's coming for this trip. Bob: Right. Kenemone: I'll go round up the scientists. *Kenemone floats up to the scientist module to see the scientists packing equipment.* Kenemone: Good, you're getting ready. Shepley: Yea, I can't wait to check out the lowest parts of the atmosphere Kassini couldn't record. Philgan: Maybe something's alive! Kenemone: Yep, you're ready. Come on, Gilberry. Let's get the lander ready. *Gilberry nods and they float into the lander, the rest of the crew arriving not more than a minute later.* Gilberry: Everyone ready? Jeb: It appears so. Kenemone: Great. Undocking. Kenemone: We're off. Engaging RCS to push us away. *The ship turns and the RCS lightly pushes it away.* Kenemone: Engaging main thrusters. *The radial thrusters roar to life.* Kenemone: We're on a sub-orbital trajectory and will land in 15 minutes. I suggest everyone stays seated. 15 minutes later... Jeb: Here we go! Bob: Aah! Jeb: Oh come on, it's just like aerobraking! Bob: I hated aerobraking too! Kenemone: Reentry fire! *The scientists begin to have a similar reaction to Bill's, except Dr. Shepley.* Shepley: Woo! Jeb: Shepley gets it! *Bob begins to gag as if he is going to throw up.* Jeb: Bob? Kenemone: He's getting nauseous. *Jeb hands him a bag made just for the purpose.* Jeb: If you really are going to hurl, do it in this. *Bob does just that.* Jeb: Yuck. Kenemone: Ew. Bob: Th- ground- close... *Kenemone looks out the window, seeing the chutes haven't deployed yet.* Kenemone: What the hell, Gilberry? *Gilberry is slumped over.* Kenemone: Great. He's passed out from the G's. Jeb, can you deploy the chutes? *Jeb has a flashback of reentry over Kerbin.* Flashback Bill: That's 2 chutes... deployed! Flashback Jeb: Great, now get back in! Flashback Bill: Righ- AHH! *Bill is ripped off the ladder and off the ship, plummeting to his death.* Jeb: BILL! Kenemone: The hell? Bob: He's having a flashback, it's PTSD! Kenemone: Who's going to deploy the chutes? *Bob reaches over and tries to deploy them, just out of reach.* Kenemone: Frak! *Kenemone pushes Bob closer, letting him finally hit the button, deploying the chutes.* Kenemone: Phew! Bob: My Kod that was close! *Kenemone looks around.* Kenemone: We appear to be the last 2 not in a PTSD flashback or knocked out by G's. Good job. Bob: Likewise. *The chutes fully deploy.* *Kenemone presses a button to deploy the landing gear.* Kenemone: Stuck. Whatever, we're landing in sand, and we could withstand rocks with the bottom anyway. Bob: Right. *The lander makes touchdown.* Bob: Here we go.

Woah, a thousand views!

Chapter 10: Erin Transfer Bob: So this is it. We're here, after all this time. Jeb: Yep. Remember those first steps on the moon Neil took? All those years ago? Well look at us now. The Kerbal race, out at Sentar! *Bob smiles.* Jeb: Anyway, Bob, lets get a plane change going. We need to get in a good position for an Erin transfer. Beb: On it. *Bob floats over to some control panels.* Jeb: Kenemone, go make sure the scientists are all right. Kenemone: Aye captain. *Jeb grins and floats over to Bob.* Bob: I've got a good transfer set up at the ascending node. We'll start the burn in an hour and a half. Jeb: Good. After the plane change... Jeb: Whew. Good job, we're on a good course. Can you set up a good transfer now? Bob: Depends on what you mean by "good". I can get us in the SoI, but when we get there we'll have to do a bit of fine-tuning to aerobrake. Jeb: That's ok, how much Delta-V will it take? Bob: No more than a hundred. Jeb: Good, good. We have lots of fuel. *Bob nods and sets up the next maneuver.* Another hour and a half later... Bob: Hey, guys. Come look out the window before we start our transfer. Philgan: Woah, that's a lot of rocks. Gilberry: Only you would say that, Philgan. Jeb: Heh. Alright, everyone back to your seats, we're about to begin the transfer burn. *Everyone floats over to their seats.* Jeb: Woo! Bob: I still don't get how you like this! Jeb: I don't get how you don't! 3 days later, just above Erin's atmosphere... Jeb: Here we go. Into the atmosphere. Bob: Into the fire. *Jeb switches on the intercom.* Jeb: Everyone strap in, here we go. *Kenemone emerges from his room sleepily and straps into his chair.* Kenemone: *Yawn* Here we go... *Jeb switches off the intercom.8 Jeb: We're in the atmosphere. At this rate we should NOT get any reentry flames. Kenemone: Don't hold your breath though. Jeb: I'm pretty sure we won't. 3 minutes later... Jeb: We've left the atmosphere. Bob, where do we stand? Bob: Our apoapsis is at 240 kilometers. I'll set up a circularization burn. Jeb: Good, good. I want everyone to stretch their legs when we get down there.

I again forgot to take pics during the transfer burn and such. I guess I just was really tense and forgot about it. Sorry! FYI, they are in Sentar Orbit, and have refueled. Nothing too eventful.

Chapter 9: Endeavour Burbart: Jeb, this is Mission Control, are you and your crew ready to ascend? *Jeb looks to Bob, who nods.* Jeb: Yes, mission control, this is Jeb. We're ready for launch. Burbart: Roger that, Jeb. Beginning pre-flight checks. Bob: Jeb, just so you know, I'm ready. I'm not the person who was at the bar. That was the me I needed to escape- Jeb: I know Bob. And I'm sorry I punched you. Kenemone: What are you 2 going on about? Jeb: Nothing. It's nothing. Kenemone: Alright then. Burbart, lets get this show on the road. Burbart: Roger that, Kenemone. Take off in T- 10 seconds. Burbart: All systems nominal. Jeb: Woo! This never gets old! Bob: I beg to differ. Jeb: C'mon Bob, I know you love spaceflight! Bob: I do, but this part isn't in my list of highlights! Jeb: You're no fun. Burbart: I bet it's great, Jeb. I'll be sure to go up with you guys sometime after you get back. Jeb: Of course you will! I'll make you! Burbart: Haha, all right then, Jeb. Beginning gravity turn. After the ship circularizes... Burbart: Good work, people. Looks like Endeavour is just a few kilometers away! *The whole cabin cheers.* Jeb: Got it, Burbart. Kenemone, get us docked. Kenemone: Roger that, captain. Kenemone: Alright, in a few minutes, we'll be close enough to do a slowing burn then dock! *The cabin cheers again, and a few minutes later they have drifted into the right position to slow down and dock.* *The capsule wobbles and docks.* Kenemone: We've docked! Jeb: Alright people, orderly fasion, the only way to the crew module from here is a narrow tunnel. *The scientists and officers begin going down the tunnel one by one.* Jeb: Officers, our cabin is one deck below this. Scientists, this is the science bay, next to it is your crew module. Get settled. *Jeb, Kenemone and Bob continue down into the officer's cabin.* Jeb: and we have our own individual rooms/offices. The other part of this cabin is supply storage. *Kenemone slips into his marked office/room.* Kenemone: Cozy. Bob: Detatching the rear of the lander. Jeb: Mission control, we've made it. Project Endeavour has begun.

Currently working on the next chapter, so here is a pretty (and unrelated) picture I dug up from my screenshots folder.

Mission Detail: Sentar Mission (Code name: Project Endeavor.) Crew Manifest Captain Jebediah (Mission Commander) Lieutenant Bill (Pilot of KES Endeavour) Lieutenant Kenemone ("Dragon" Lander Pilot) Dr. Philgan (Geologist/Possible Erin Biologist) Dr. Gilberry (Engineer) Dr. Derfrod (Medical Doctor) Dr. Shepely (Meteorologist) Vessel Details: Lander "Dragon" Fuel Capacity: 900 Monopropellant Battery Capacity: 500 Propulsion: 4 Radially Mounted Monopropellant Engines Crew Capacity: 7 Vessel Details: KES Endeavor Fuel Capacity: 4860 Liquid Fuel 5940 Oxidizer 2700 Monopropellant Reserves Battery Capacity: 4165 Propulsion: x3 LV-N Atomic Rocket Motor Power Generators: x12 SP-L 1x6 Photovoltaic Panels Crew Capacity: 8 Mission Objectives SENTAR: Upon arrival, rendezvous with excess fuel sent before Endeavour's launch. ERIN: Study possibility for life. Atmosphere recorded by Kassini. POCK: Perform geological studies. SKELETON: Land on Krag Mons and study atmosphere and Krag Mons itself. RINGLE: Study rings, preform geological studies on surface. THUD: DO NOT ENTER SOI. OTHER: Return safely with all crew to Kerbin, keep KES Endeavour undamaged for possible future use.

Chapter 8.5: 6 Months Later *Jeb and his fiancee, Annabeth are walking through the streets of Kerbin City, which repelled the invasion after a huge morale boost brought on by the safe landing and heroics of the astronauts aboard the return mission, and are looking for a bar Bob is known to frequent.* Jeb: This looks like the place. Annabeth: Apparently. *They walk inside.* Bob: Hey! Jeb: Bob! Anna: Hey! Bob: It's good to see you! Hey bartender, a round for us! Jeb: I thought you were going to quit drinking for Sara, now that she is in your custody? Bob: Then why would I invite you here? Jeb: Bob, come on! Bob: What? Jeb: You have to take care of this girl! Bob: She's plenty self-sufficent! Jeb: Bob, that's ridiculous! What child wants an alcoholic uncle, or father figure, or whatever you are! Anna: Jeb, there's no need to fight... Jeb: Anna, there is all the reason to fight! Bob: I agree with Anna, I've done nothing wrong. Jeb: You've done everything wrong! Sara isn't going to be able to afford college, your going to abuse her at some point- you've broken promises... Bob: Jeb... I'm- sorry... Jeb: No you aren't! You're considered a hero for killing Gene but after that you got depressed and can't even support a child! You go back on your promises and you're nothing but an common alcoholic in a recovering city battered by war! You walk among those who's friends all fell in battle- at least your friend died a hero! Bob: Soldiers are heroes too, asshole! Jeb: Not always! Bob: You're jealous of them. They're heroes and you just had me and Bill run from Duna. You're nothing but a coward! Jeb:... *Jeb punches Bob in the face and the bar goes silent after collective gasping or screaming.* Jeb: Sober the hell up, or I'll make sure the space program won't take you back for that Sentar mission. C'mon Anna. *Anna hesitates but follows, not sure what to say. They exit the bar.* Anna: Jeb, that was not necessary. Jeb: I know- I'm sorry... that you had to see that, Anna. *They go home in silence.*

Thanks for the feedback! Yes, Kineea will eventually be drawn into the war, but not like that, lol Anyway, I've already got the first chapter in the next story of the... series? Storyception? I don't know what to call it, ready to be typed up. They go to Sentar, the gas giant added in Krag's Planet Factory, for the mentioned manned exploration mission. Well, eventually, but for now it's just them getting to their cool ship with 5 other kerbals. Also, there will be a dramatic half-chapter about Jeb and Bob set 6 months after the events of chapter 8, which is before they are chosen to lead the mission to Sentar.

Chapter 8: Return and Reentry Months after departure from Duna... Jeb: My god, never thought I'd be this close to Kerbin again... Bill: Yea... beautiful, isn't it. Jeb: I hope they haven't ruined it by now... Bill: Doesn't look like it from here, at least! Jeb: Yep. Mechjeb: Reentry in 30 seconds... Jeb: Woah, that's close... stage off the transfer stage and prepare the chutes. Mechjeb: WARNING: STAGING UNRESPONSIVE. PARACHUTES WILL NOT DEPLOY. REENTRY HAS OCCURED. Jeb: What? Bill: Oh no! Jeb: What are we going to do now? We can't exactly pull out of reentry! Bill: I have an idea. Jeb: Which is? *Bill puts on his helmet* Bill: You'll see. Hold on. Jeb: Bill, whatever you're doing, no- Bill: I have to. To save you and Bob. And I will hopefully get back with you, safely. *Bill opens the airlock to huge growing wind.* Bill: I'LL BE BACK SOON! *Bill Closes the airlock behind him* Jeb: BILL! Bill: Okay, I got one in, but that won't be enough. Jeb: Bill get back in here! Bill: No, I got this! *Bill swings down to open another chute.* Mechjeb: Automatic parachute deployment has occured. *The force blasting open the chute knocks Bill over and a detaching solar panel hits him* Jeb: BILL! *Bill falls off of the craft and plummets, all communication is lost.* Jeb: NO! Mechjeb: Warning, structural integrity at 60% and dropping. Jeb: Frak! Mechjeb: Command pod detaching. Transfer stage detached and breaking apart. *Chutes fully deploy and Jeb is knocked out cold.* Three hours later... *Bob awakens to a safely landed command pod, Bill is missing and Jeb is unconscious.* Bob: Jeb? *Jeb doesn't respond, Bob checks his pulse.* Bob: Okay, you're still alive... *Bob cracks open the airlock, and the sun's rays temporarily blind his view.* Bob: Bill? *He stumbles out into the grass, and lies there.* Bob: Bill, where are you? *He gets up and looks around.* Bob: Bill, come on! *He begins walking around the field.* Bob: Bill? Bill?! *He drops to his knees, correctly assuming the worst.* Bob: BILL! *Bob begins to sob.* Bob: Bill... no!

Chapter 7: Lifting Off Bill: Jeb, what are we going to do? Bob hasn't moved for 3 hours! Jeb: Honestly, Bill, I have no idea. We might be able to go up and rendezvous with the crew transfer stage and bring it to an interplanetary transfer stage. Bill: With what? Jeb: The landing thrusters still work I believe. I might be able to rewire them to use them as main engines. And if worst comes to worst we could use the Dragon pod Gene landed. Bill: Well, I'll go check out the Dragon then... you just stay put, and rewire our engines... Jeb: Ok. Mechjeb, keep an eye on Bob's vitals. Mechjeb: Yes Jebediah. Jeb: Creepy. *Jeb and Bill exit the pod* Bill: *Turns off comms with Jeb* I can't believe we're just throwing away most of the KASA budget so quickly, without Burbart's consent. I guess we can't get into contact with him and Mission Control, anyway. *Bill reaches the Dragon and climbs up the ladder* *Bill gets in* Bill: Hmm. Empty. It's nice to be alone for once... BERTY: Quite the contrary, Bill. Bill: Huh? Who are you? BERTY: I am BERTY, the Kineean AI of this modified Dragon Lander-Capsule. Bill: Like Mechjeb? BERTY: Better. Bill: Well then, "Berty", how much fuel does this thing have left? BERTY: Plenty to get into orbit, but not without my consent. Which you don't have. Bill: Hmm. I guess it's time the Kineeans lose an AI, don't you think? BERTY: How do you suppose you will destroy me? Bill: I never said that. BERTY: It was implied. Bill: Well then, like this. *Bill smashes a control panel* BERTY: W-*static* WHAT ARE YOU DOING? Bill: I already told you. Or rather, it was implied in something I said. *Bill smashes another panel until he finds a cabinet that appears to house BERTY's main proscessors, so he opens it.* Bill: We can just use our own ship. *Bill starts destroying the proscessors* BERTY: N-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! *Bill exits the capsule and turns on comms with Jeb.* Bill: Jeb, they had a very advanced AI in there. I destroyed it. Jeb: Bill, we could've used that! Bill: Too late. I also accidentally destroyed all the controls, too. Jeb: Dammit Bill! Bill: Kineeans deserve to lose some things for what they've been doing. Jeb: What does it matter if it destroys us too? Bill: I guess- well, did you wire the ship? Jeb: Yea, yea. Ok. We should be fine. I'm still angry, however. A few minutes later... Jeb: Here we go! Bob: Wha? Bill: Bob! You're up! Bob: What? Where? Bill: We're going home. Bob: Yes, yes... home, thank you... Bill: Bob, are you ok? Bob: Yea, more than ok... we're going home.. Bill: Okay then. Gravity turn starting soon... A few hours later...

Sneak-peek I'd say.

I'd like some feedback on my last chapter

Kind of abrupt ending to the chapter, but I wasn't sure what else to put. I hope you guys like it!

Chapter 6: Gene? Jebs Log: I's been more than a year on this planet. Nothing much has happened. Burbart made sure to get us good communications so we could watch the Kassini probe explore the Sentar system. He says that when we get switched out for a new colony crew, we'll be the first on the list for a manned mission crew. Apparently there is a moon like Laythe but further out from the gas giant it is orbiting. Erin, it's called. Possible for microbial life maybe? That's what they said about Laythe, but that was disproven. Kassini is the only one thing that has gone to Sentar yet, and there is no plans besides a manned mission for anything else. Somewhat off topic but Burbart is now the De Facto leader of the space program. Gene went missing. It is speculated he was caught in the war's crossfire or something. On a related note, Bob's brother and his wife were killed. Their daughter Sara lived, however. He was so depressed he didn't leave the hab module for a month. The only thing that got him out was Burbart getting him to talk to Sara over voice chat. He's still very quiet however. I feel bad. Maybe- Bill: Jeb! We've detected something deorbiting around Duna. It's going to land a few kilometers away. Jeb: Impossible. Bill: No, no. Come look! Meanwhile, up in the sky... Gene: BERTY, make sure we don't crash, dammit! BERTY: Gene, this is an optimal speed. We will land roughly 200 meters away from the colony at this pace. Gene: Not if we explode! BERTY: Do not worry, Gene. I do not make mistakes. Gene: Fine. Alright. I've never been on a spaceflight before, anyway. Never even commanded one on a landing, either. BERTY: Beginning vertical descent. Gene: Good, good. BERTY: Touchdown. 202 meters from Colony Sirius. Gene: I guess we didn't explode. *Gene opens the airlock and steps out with his suit on* Gene: Looks like they noticed me. Bill and Jeb appear to be outside. *Gene walks to them* Jeb: Gene? How did you get here! Burbart said nothing has left the space center since Kassini! Gene: I launched from the Kineea launchpad. Jeb: Kineea? They don't have a space program. Gene: Of course they do, how do you think I got here? Jeb: I... well... Bill: How did you get them to let you use their space center? *Gene reveals a concealed handgun* Gene: Simple. I've been a Kineean Officer for quite some time. Jeb: Woah, woah, woah! A gun? Gene: Yes. A gun. Bill: What do you have against us? Gene: You're all Kerbaltian. That jet that started the war? I ordered the pilot to do that. In fact, he was Kineean as well. Kerbaltia and Kerania we're bound to go to war, so we started the process for them, before they could drag innocent countries into it. Jeb: You're insane! Bill: Hundreds of thousands are already dead, Bob's brother included! Gene: Oh, I'm deeply sorry for that. *Grins* Jeb: You sick bastard! *Gene aims the gun at Jeb.* Gene: Hand over all the data you've collected here. I'll just bring it back to Kineea, then we'll claim Duna for ourselves while Kerbaltia and Kerania destroy eachother. We've entered a new age, Jeb. And you can't be part of it. Jeb: Wait! Gene: Last words? I really don't see th- Bob: YOU KILLED HIM! YOU KILLED FRANK! *Bob comes charging from the habitat module with a pipe, Gene turns to face him too late and Bob smashes Gene's helmet* Jeb: Holy- Bill: Bob! Bob: You.. *smash* killed... *smack* my... *crack* brother! *Gene is coughing blood and gasping for breath* Bill: Bob you breached his suit! Bob: Good! *Bob steps off, and looks at a battered and dying Gene, only then realizing what he did* Bob: Oh my god I killed him! I killed him! *Bob begins to collapse, sobbing under bitter realization* Gene: *cough* You've doomed everyone... *Gene takes one last gasp and slips away, dead* Bob: Oh god, oh god! He-he was a bastard and he got my brother killed, but, but- Bill: Bob, you did the right thing. Bob: No! Jeb: Bob, he would've killed us all! Bob: N-no, no more. Please. Home. I want to go home... *He drops the pipe and falls to his knees, blacking out* Jeb: Bob! *Bill and Jeb pick him up and put him in the habitation module*

Good question! I'll be revealing that next chapter, in the DRAMATIC CLIMAX OF THIS SECTION OF THE STORY! (This will essentially be a bunch of stories together in one thread, by the way. They will follow the same storyline.)

I'd like some feedback! Also, MEANWHILE IN ORBIT

Chapter 5: Descent More than 2 months after departure from Kerbin.. Jeb: We're at the right place in orbit for descent. Mechjeb: Affirmative. Prepare for deorbit burn. Jeb: Good. *The engines roar to life as the deorbit burn begins* Jeb: Woo! *Bill is grinning but Bob is frowning.* Mechjeb: Deorbit burn completed. Bill: Awesome. Lets get some snacks out. Jeb: Yea, I'm starving! *Bill floats up to a cabinet marked "Food" and takes out 3 small boxes of chips, he begins handing them out. Jeb: Mmm. Eat up. Bill: Bob, you seem kind of.. quiet, lately. Anything wrong? Bob: I'm worried. Bill: About you brother and his family? Bob: Yea. And the fact that communications is with Kerbin is minimal and choppy. Bill: I'm sure everything is fine. Bob: Yea.. fine... *Everyone begins to silently eat.* About a half-hour later... Jeb: Here we go! *Mechjeb engages the landing lights and the greenhouse lights just before touchdown* Jeb: Touchdown! Bill: Woo! Jeb: Come on Bob, we're on Duna! Crack a smile! *Bob grins* Jeb: Alright guys, get suited up, we're heading out. 15 minutes later... Jeb: I've repacked out chutes. They look nicer this way. *Jeb hops off the ladder and plants a flag* Jeb: Come on over, KASA PR wants a photo from our landing.

I had made 2 chapters and forgot to take pictures! Ugh. Well, another one is coming along nicely, and nothing special happened in the other 2, it was just arrival and routine things. Time to get this story back up and running!
