SRB to Someplace!! Objective: Go someplace, anyplace beside Kerbin using only SRBs. A few challenges have been proposed similar to this but the difference for this one is that you have to leave Kerbin SOI on a single SRB burn. This is somewhat similar to the real life PAM except with an added twist: no RCS. Mods: Not Allowed: Parts mods, you have to use the stock SRBs and other stock parts Physics changing mods (FAR is acceptable for atmospheric entry) Allowed/Recommended: Basically everything else MechJeb KER Transfer Window Planner KAC Visual Enhancements Notes: You can use Hyperedit to put your vessel into Kerbin orbit but obviously the SRB burn has to be flown I haven't figured out a scoring system but if anyone has any suggestions, they are welcome to help me assign point values. Here are thing things that I would think get points but I don't know exactly how to balance it: Launching vessel (i.e. not using hyperedit orbit) Destination (Eve, Duna, Moho, etc. Base value for points) Landing at destination rather than just crashing If lithobraking, probecore/command pod surviving is extra points More points for larger vessels/Kerbal on board (or multiplier based on vessel mass) Surviving Atmospheric entry (IMO, the heatshield shouldn't explode if there's still ablator left so I cheated here. This is the only F12 menu thing allowed) Requirements: You have to leave Kerbin SOI with a single SRB burn You have to contact the surface of your destination body (lithobraking is ok, landing is better) Pics or it didn't happen or video if that's your preference Here's my Eve mission:
