[CANCELED]My space program [CANCELLED]

[Thegamer211]

Gene kerman has some news for us all.

End of interlude 1, really this time!

[Thegamer211]

This is the plan for the Minmus mission

In the next few pages the lander launch will happen.

I also just installed EVE and astronomers pack. They work with no drop in fps

[Geschosskopf]

Hehehe, I like where this is going. It's sad that only Engineers can use screwdrivers, so the Pilots and Scientists will starve to death, though .

It surprised me at the picnic when only Bill could use the screwdriver.

What about wrenchs?

IIRC, the wrench is just a low-tech screwdriver you get earlier in the game. It can't do everything that the screwdriver can do, but it still requires an engineer to use it.

Did I say that I really hate the current dedicated, union craftline Kerbal class system?

[Thegamer211]

The (unmanned for now) Minmus lander was launched!

I kept ignoring the Kerbin space station contracts.

Also, I have no idea how I got that free return trajectory, as I made the burn in fly mode, and not in map.

EDIT: the last page kinda looks like the start of a honest trailer video.

[Thegamer211]

The crew left Kerbin and it's on way to Minmus!

My friend gave me the idea of the last page.

[Thegamer211]

Meanwhile at KSC...

Fun stuff happens.

1 Day until SOI enter.

[Mister Dilsby]

I like that plane, same basic layout as my Gliido. If you put turbos on it instead of the basic jet, it should orbit.

Excellent view of those idiots at Mission Control

[Thegamer211]

If you put turbos on it instead of the basic jet, it should orbit.

I'd wish, but turbojets are a few nodes away.

[Thegamer211]

Kraken? Or another bug that separates EVERY piece off a craft happened. Good that Bill knows the F9 trick.

No errors this time, just a funny probe.

I also uninstalled EVE and astronomer's cloud pack, because they were crashing the game on startup.;.;;.;(I did it since page 1)

[Geschosskopf]

Heheh, I also love explosions .

So, how did the Kubesat end up going to Mun? Was it's orbit just too close and it got swept up by accident, or did you do that on purpose?

The contract wanted an apoapsis up to 11 million km, intersecting mun's orbit.

It wasn't intercepting the first time, so I guess it happened after at least one orbit.

[Thegamer211]

The first docking ever (on this career save) happened.

[Thegamer211]

Jeb, Bob and Bill go to land and get science!

Good thing Jeb was not distracted by the explosion.

EDIT: 3 more pages, I don't want to quartruple post, and I don't need another bump.

3 more pages

[Thegamer211]

The Kerbin space station is incomplete (lacks a science lab, and so the contract is incomplete)

Also every kerbal is in space, and no one is at ground.

That's what I call a thriving space program!

[Thegamer211]

I installed Stock fuel switch (for nuclear engines), and all my crafts got their fuel refilled.:confused::confused:

Meanwhile, Bobdas Kerman is still waiting to enter Minmus SOI.

[Mister Dilsby]

Loved Mort's flashback thoughts. Poor Mort.

[Thegamer211]

Meanwhile, the Kerbin station gets finished with an unexpected module!

[Thegamer211]

The crew vehicle is ready and (mostly:wink:) operational.

Bill is going to have a long talk with the KSC engineers.

[Geschosskopf]

Congrats on the shuttle. I suck at those

It went very good on the first try, and after some tweaking it was perfect.

Beginner's luck I guess?

[Mister Dilsby]

Nice shuttle, indeed! But you're going to have to pay Kerbfleet royalties if your crew keeps having "concerns" and engineers can see the future (kidding, it's fine )

Thanks.

Bill, as engineer, writes the engineer's report when he is at ground.

I also updated it, and now has 3 A.I.R.B.R.A.K.E.S., and a small cargo bay.

I also made another version, that has the longer cargo bay instead of crew.

[Thegamer211]

After around 100 in game days, and a lot of stuff...(Mostly involving the space shuttle and the station)

Chapter 4 started!

Maybe the next target is the surface?
