[0.16] Munar landing, EVAs, Rendezvous, Minmus Landing - Angel I, II, III, IV


RedDwarfIV

Recommended Posts

Angel I, Angel II, and Angel III - named after early Space Program craft [that I built back in 0.08-9] which, although incapable of orbit due to the primitive nature of its electronics, was a milestone on the road to space exploration.

Nedson realises the gravity of the situation, but he\'s still suffering from adrenaline drain after that whack earlier. He cannot be bothered to scream.

Hope you enjoyed looking at this. Took hours to post - I watched two episodes of Babylon 5 whilst working on this. Who says men can\'t multitask?
