Lunar Colony

As out brave kerbals continue to explore the solar system, they will eventually need permanent accommodation on bodies other then Kerbal. Now, we all know that it would be best to dig out a shelter underground on the Mun, or perhaps bring semi-inflatable buildings to erect on landing.

However, this is nowhere near kerbal enough!

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to construct multi-part buildings on the Mun. The buildings must consist of at least two peices, and these peices must be launched on separate flights. This will require precision landing, and a good deal of skill.

Good luck.

This is my best attempt so far. I was attempting to deliver the pillar structure, and then land the roof on top. Unfortunately, this proved beyond my piloting skills with my RCSless lander. I successfully landed the pillars, and safely returned, but when landing the roof I failed to align properly and did a slow motion crash less then 50m from the pillars.

Wow, your good, I cant even land on Mun.

[MOhon]

It\'s a good idea.

Is it only allowed to use stock parts?

Ciao!!

......and I was happy because I managed to make three orbit revolutions and drop back down withought killing my kermans. Twice. In a row.

So much respect, dude...

What are the pieces forming the horizontal structure joining the pillars?

[Foursh]

Success!

That\'s... not quite right.

Close enough! 8)

One way it is structural hardpoints I believe they are called. Other way they are wing connectors. The wing connectors arent acually attached on both sides which is why the pillars are falling inwards.

Congratulations foursh! That is very good flying

How did you steer? Just with thrust vectoring?

And where exactly on the mun did you land? I was attempting to do it on the mountain in the middle of the very large crater on the mun; probably not the best idea (landing on a slope).

[Foursh]

The roof had RCS, but it ran out of fuel before it could help much, so yeah, I steered with thrust vectoring alone. I landed in the big crater on the far side of the Mun, just south of the hill in the middle (still on a slight slope though).
