Mission idea / challenge for science playthrough

[Foxster]

This isn't quite a challenge or a mission idea but something between...

Start a new science game and fill the tech tree without visiting the Mun or Minmus. 

I've just done this as my first 1.1 playthrough and I found it a nice change. I got real bored with grinding through the Mun and/or Minmus biomes previously, which aren't that hard to get to but repetitive to visit for the science. Whereas the leap from visiting a few biomes on Kerbin, some Kerbin suborbital and orbital flights to getting a pretty wonky craft to Duna and back was a nice challenge.  Then repeating for Eve and finishing with an Eeloo return mission was interesting. 

No badges or praise will be forthcoming if you do this, I just thought I'd put it out there as something for you guys to try.
