Anyone can join, @The Minmus Derp. Prepare your challenge submission and receive a fancy gold medal!

When will we get the medals?

Just do it Read and follow the rules and how to submit your entry (a picture of your mun station is enough for the current challenge)

 

edit: somehow the link doesn't bring up the correct post....it is on site 4^^

Well, the OP says that each challenge will run for 10 days but AFAIK, @Alpha 360 mentioned to change this to "you can submit until the next challenge pops up", even though the OP is not updated yet. Unfortunately, due some RL and other things, this can always be another day (hopefully, every upcoming challenge will be announced like before)

My humble Munnar station: 2 science labs, a coupula, 2 Hitchhicker modules, an Adove module (10 kerbals capacity from a mod) several solar panels (-1 of them, destroyed by this idiot kerbal on the picture), some antennas and 15000 electric charge, and a couple of fuel tanks, also a Davon selfsupply tank and a bunch of docking ports.

Oh, and thanks guys for the help!

General Universal Internal Memo:

Operation: ANCHOR ONE

• Status: Success
• Mission Images:
• Spoiler

  

  Full Album: https://imgur.com/a/jeF9Mhu

  Dustoff Station now operational in LMO

  • Dock & Refuel now possible in Munar orbit
  • Rescue of currently stranded Valentina Kerman now possible
  • Deployment of Inter-orbital transport & extra-planetary industrial mining now feasible

Operation success achieved, future considerations:

• Station structure rather flimsy, recommend larger assembly components
• Unmanned craft lose signal when behind the Mun, recommend construction of relay array
• Port solar arm currently placed incorrectly, recommend deployment of orbital maneuvering & assembly vehicle
• Mun delivery rocket currently overkill for delivery of craft smaller than Universal Orbital Silo to Munar orbit, recommend removing superfluous transfer stage.

Hello!

Don't be confused by the name, it does orbit the Mun... But at some point, it could be used for, bigger purposes.

This monstrosity was my first big Mun station, which could refuel landers to make moOre ScienCE and handle it with 2 labs !

 

It's named Mun City, nobody ever used this name anyway -probably-

 

[Piatzin]

Argh! I'm too popular to participate! ;-;

*Walks away sadly while dramatic, sorrowful piano music plays in the background*

I also seem to be missing a lot of threads lately. I literally just noticed this one.

.....

Hm. I'm in exams season. 

[Barzon]

Um, I can change my entry right? Because I have added 2 new modules - a lab and a docking hub.

[Alpha 360]

You don't have to change your entry, @Barzon Kerman. It doesn't matter because you have posted a space station around the mun with two parts. Since you have done that, you will receive a medal regardless of additions or subtractions. Once its up there, it will give you a medal. 

[Barzon]

OK, thanks!

Indeed. Now get out! Newbies only!</joke>

Here's my Mun station, built specifically for this challenge.

Includes a Cupola, hitchhiker storage and science lab for Kerbals, communication arrays and solar panels, fuel and monoprop, and 4 docking ports - 3 for arriving crew vessels and one for refuelling.  All built using 3 main modules taking up 3 launches, and a 4th launch to deliver the refuelling tanks.

 

First launch delivered the station core, which includes the habitation modules, basic comms and power supply

 

Second launch added main power supply and principal comms module.  It also added a further 2 docking ports.

 

3rd launch added the base for later addition of refuelling tanks

 

4th and final launch supplied the refuelling tanks

First one almost in place

 

Final station

This looks very fun! How much time is left on the current challenge? If there's enough time I think I'll attempt at it.

Heck, I don't care if it's closed I think I just need to do this stuff anyway.

The challenge is open until the next one is up.

[SiriusRocketry]

When exactly is the next challenge?

[Alpha 360]

@VelocityPolaris can answer that question, @SiriusRocketry. I think most of y'all will like this. 

Happy Explosions!

EDIT: Oh, when.........Probably by Sunday or Monday. We were caught off guard and didn't arrange stuff as efficiently as before.
