Minmus EVA


Recommended Posts

An interesting challenge that I know is possible, but I would like to see it done. I will do it myself as soon as time allows (stupid college homework X.x).

The task: Get a manned craft in orbit around Minmus, so that a brave Kerb can EVA, jet-pack down to Minmus, land on the ground, and then jet pack up to meet the ship and get back in.

This should be an interesting challenge, as where you place your orbit will be tricky. If you place your ship orbit very close to Minmus, you are going to have a huge horizontal velocity your Kerb is going to have to climb back up to.

Preferred screenshots for the challenge: One of your ship sitting on the launchpad, one of your ship in it's orbit around Minmus, one of your Kerb leaving the ship, one of your Kerb on the planet, and one of your Kerb re-entering the ship.

Good luck! I'm not quite sure this is possible yet, but might as well try!

A few quick terms and conditions:

1. Stock parts, mechjeb allowed.

2. Your ship must be in a full orbit, meaning it can go around Minmus infinitely if required.

3. Your ship has to be able to make the trip back to Kerbin. However, getting back to Kerbin is not really part of the challenge.

Good luck!
