Edit - It's a video diary. I'm curious how far I can get before all the wheels fall off.

Another space agency documentation. Major Goal: Unlock all Technologies and create meanwhile an solar exploiting Society. Always in thought of financial/possible aspects and secure travelling. Starts from the beginning, is well structured and documented (not every tiny Mission is posted here). Standard boundary conditions & mods (list available) to play realistically.

Programs consist of several Missions to achieve their goals. Programs and Missions will be partially skipped (apart major goals). As long as up to a status, as the current progress is achieved. ... to be continued (multiple mods are not updated so far)

Today, I will be launching the Mini-Orbiter to go to space and come back down in celebration of 1.1. It is a simple rocket designed to fly very well, and that's what it does. You can fly it like you would a drone, well, yes I tested it but you need to. It is my first "Mission" into orbit of Kerbin, which sounds stupid but, well... Let's get to it! Building: It was awkward to build because on the test flight it ran out of fuel but, I don't know if it's going to tip over. It uses a "Swivel" engine so I can steer it better and a "Terrier" for out-of-atmosphere stuff. Here are a few pictures of the building: Launching: This was obviously the funnest part of all, seeing your creation fly... It flew really well and it got into an OKAY orbit. Here are some photos:
