The Eeloo Run.

[322997am]

The challenge:

get to eeloo's surface in the least time possible

The backstory:

Recently, a rover landed on eeloo and found that there are bushes, which cost 10¹⁰⁰ funds each. The HyperEdit corporation has agreed to ferry your vessel to a 100km orbit around kerbin. However, others are racing you here too.

what you can't do:

use hyperedit/any other cheat for other than for teleporting ur vessel to 100km lko.

use any cheats

*mods that make the challenge much easier(*if the challenge is no longer a challenge, then no)

what you can do:

anything else you want.(including bug exploitations)

 

Your score is your time

For every passenger to eeloo soi -1d

For every passenger to eeloo surface -2d

for every kg your ship weighs +1h(1/6d)

You do not need to return, but if you do your time TO EELOO NOT ROUND TRIP is halved if it is positive and doubled if it is negative.

i will abstain, as I am afk and I will submit my entry 2moro.

you need to provide proof of your time and passengers and weight and maybe return.

You can set orbit using Alt + F12 in 1.2 (Are you outdated?).

Are you serious about the weight system? The mass would be easily in tons. 2.8 tons = 1 Kerbin year

Unless it's a seat and not a cabin, adding passengers would add more mass than time reduction.

Does this needs to be manned or unmanned?

Trying this.

EDIT: I'm waiting your responses about weight system, but in the meantime, I made this. (I have placed a pilot kerbal near launchpad)

Sorry I meant for every ton +1d

And as stated before, anything is allowed, so unmanned is great if you like.

I've tried to fly said vessel, but I came on Eeloo with about 1/3 fuel left! And that's just a flyby. Slowing down would take more fuel. Well, it was a failure.

I haven't tried that craft but did you use any gravity assists at all? Those can save a huge amount of dv if you can use them properly...

[Turf]

Nah, gravity assist takes more time.

They do but they take less dv also so that craft might be able to get to Eeloo and back if you use them. (I haven't tried tough...)

[Turf]

It takes more time than saving more dv, which saves more mass.

That craft is supposed to be used when the rules said 'kg' instead of 'ton'.
