About the Mission: Primary Objective: Complete the Elcano Challenge
circumnavigate Kerbin without leaving the planet's land surface or oceans - SUCCESS
Secondary/Operational Objectives:

based on craft performance, this conditionally means one fuel stop only - FAILURE
keep land-based transportation to a minimum
