[Delrey]

The Scarlet Horizon Program

SH-1 Mission

Crew:

Jeb - Commander

Valentina - Pilot

Bill - Flight Engineer

Robo - Flight Engineer

Haizy - Science Mission Specialist

Delotte - Science Mission Specialist

 

Vehicles:

Scarlet Horizon - crew module and propulsion module

DEV - Duna Exploration Vehicle; 3 kerbal lander and launch vehicle

Duna Hab

Pressurized Geology Lab Transport (Piglet); rover

Jayhawk - Ike lander

 

Jeb, Bill and Haizy landed on Duna.  Stayed for ~45 days in the Hab and conducted 2 land expeditions in the Piglet .  On SH-1 LEx-1 theyy discovered a large face of a Kerbal.  On LEx-2 they climbed to the midlands and highlands covering 3 biomes.  A total of 100km was covered.  They launched and rendezvoused with the Scarlet Horizon.

The crew departed for Ike about a 3 months later.  Val, Robo and Del landed on Ike.  They rendezvoused with the Scarlet Horizon and after another 6 months departed for Kerbin.

They docked around Kerbin with a Skysword (lifting body 6 kerbal LKO transport) and returned home.  6676 Science.  5 contracts completed for about 2.2 million funds.

Extremely fun mission.  I was proud that I landed the DEV 200m from the hab.  I got the rover about 2000m.  The heavy lift launch vehicle could launch the payload and transfer/injection stage for about 80k funds after recovering about 110k.  It made getting the vessels in LKO pretty cheap.
