TheKosmonaut Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 Mission Complete! I went for some really convoluted flight path that nearly ended my kerbal's lives. Album in a minute; the entire mission report will be written in the album I guess. Makes it easier on the eyes. Mission Report Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monstah Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Prospector 1 Mission Report: https://imgur.com/a/PmEFj Bottom line: lots of funds spent, a fully refueled space debris depot, an orbital scan done and barely enough science to justify the expenditure.

Vanamonde Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 DATELINE: KSC inside sources say confusion reigns within the moderator space program, as several members used different game versions and people can't agree which one to stay with. "It's chaos!" one high-ranking figure was heard to say. Delays to the program's missions are expected to result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snark Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Successful flight of the Capricorn I, a crewed mission to land on Duna. Imgur album: https://imgur.com/a/t9NlD This mission landed three kerbals on the surface of the red planet, where for the time being they remain. Their lander has enough fuel to return to Duna orbit, but no heat shield for the homeward journey-- perhaps a follow-up mission may be in order at some point. It also left Capricorn Station in low Duna orbit, an uncrewed communications relay platform and fuel depot, with 22 tons of LFO and a monopropellant supply. Results of mission: Funds: Started with 897K funds Finished with 1580K funds. Science: Started with 200 science Finished with 1294 science Upgraded: VAB (to level 3) Tracking station (to level 3) Researched: Space Exploration Advanced Exploration Nuclear Propulsion Miscellaneous accomplishments: Lots and lots of science sitting in the lander. Just need to carry it home to Kerbin somehow. First crewed landing on Duna. Three kerbals currently on the surface. Visited only one Duna biome, plenty more places to visit. (Ike not yet visited.) Left uncrewed Capricorn Station in low Duna orbit, with 22 tons LFO (capacity for 72) and a monopropellant supply. Plenty of docking ports, small and medium. The Capricorn I lander has easily enough fuel to return to Duna orbit and rendezvous with Capricorn Station. Unfortunately, our engineer is a noob who's having trouble figuring out how to repack these parachute thingies, so another landing will have to wait until either KSC sends us a better engineer, or else a science lab to allow training up the kerbals. The lander should have no problem landing on Ike after a refueling stop, however, if anyone is so inclined. Onward and upwards! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuoDex Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Spoiler Mission patch for Watch me do me. I listen to Kosmo's suggestions, it looks terrible, but I'm too lazy to do it properly, will make up for it tomorrow with a really cool patch for Usagi III.

Vanamonde Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 One day at KSC... Bill: Why do these guys keep insisting on sending Kerbals to do a robot's job? The ships are bigger, costlier, and do little that un-crewed craft can't do! Bob: Yeah! Bill: We even have to provide the crews with food, water, and waste management, and pay their wages! Bob: Well, actually, no-- Bill: You know what I mean! Bob: Yeah! Let's show them and send another robot probe! Bill: Okay, nobody's been to Eve yet, right? Bob: Not so far. But we can do it! Bill: Can we get paid for it? Bob: No, no contracts. But let's do it anyway! ... several simulated weeks later... Bill: Okay, we've got this probe, but before we spend all that moolah and fly it all the way to Eve, we should test it. Bob: You know, we've been to Duna, but not the poles of Kerbin yet? Weird, huh? Let's test it there! Bob: It works! And we got 65 more science! Bill: Now on to the real mission! Bob: After a combination of aerobrake passes and engine burns, the main ship was parking in orbit to await proper landing site and conditions, and while waiting, it dispatched the relay probe. Bill: Yeah, I know. I was there when it happened, helping you control the mission. Bob: Yes, but I am explaining for the record. Bill: Oh, okay. So when the time was right, the main mission proceeded to a landing! Bob: From there it beamed back all the science it had collected from the surface, while descending on chutes, while making aerobraking passes, and upon entering Eve space! Bill: How much did it get? Bob: 994! And now much did the mission cost? Bill: Well, there was no contract, and there was the expense of the two launches, but we got a mess of world-first awards, and netted +$76,855! Bob: Neat! Now maybe those other guys will see the benefits of robotic missions! And we sure do use a lot of exclamation points! Bill: I know, right?
