Nantares' Mission & Adventure log

[Nantares]

This is my mission report thread (and this is my first topic in this forum too) , it's about my space adventures , an invention and tortures(or even kills)Kerbals, I hope you are going to enjoy with my stuff in this topic

(sorry about my English, that's not my first language)

Spoiler

I'm a KSP player from Thailand who fall in love with Sci Fi movies and Aerospace-related stuffs

Here is my little Spacedock... codename "Workshop-1"

I would like to build a BIG-S mothership but launching its components to orbit and assembly them is hurtful hard, so I would deal with them by Extraplanetary Launchpad

start expanding itself by building its rocketparts cargo...

well...looks better

its flight logs

つづく　　(read as "tsu-dzu-ku" it means "To Be Continue" in Japanese and I would finding how to Designing an Interplanetary Vehicle Architecture ASAP...)

[Geschosskopf]

Welcome to the forum and thanks for the Japanese lesson   You're building some very impressive stuff here.  I look forward to seeing more.

Indeed! It seems that you are better off than I am at doing this!

Flight # 2 Mochi to the Mun...(come late but better than never)

I just found an uncanny modded part pack that uses a Japanese new year decorations for a spacecraft part, so I trying to assembly them and send to Mun

1. put them in my Space-Y Launch Vehicle

2. ...and blast-off!!

3. the "MochiSat" after ejected its fairings...

4. to Mun orbit...

5. and the most worrysome time : landing

...and I finally did it (if don't mind about accidents in flight log)

you can find this mod here and try at your risk...

2-B-continue....

Flight # 3. Reuseable(?) Rocket to orbit...

I would like to make a Space X-alike Boosters for sending a spaceship to orbit, so I build and test them

Codename : Space-Z Booster (with Leia cmmand pod from Rock Factory Mod)

It fly like a boss

....and take a ship to our space station(for the future Mun&Minmus missions)

comeback to our booster again...

it's time to land it on Kerbin

it should be happy landing if I don't try to landing manualy(ok...it's my fault to don't use MechJeb for landing), so it's crashed and I forget to grab a picture while it crash(and I forgot quicksaving too)

this is the last pic for this boy...

ok, I will try it  AGAIN!!! (with Shadowzone's voice) 

2-B-continue...

Flight #4 Finding Kraken

I heard about the Space Kraken on Bop, so I sending a probe find them...(before I send Jeb or other Kerbals)

it would take a minuite to get in orbit, but no Unwanted disassembly issue found.

prepare for plotting transfer lane to Jool, but burn time is long and made me sleepy.

Jool system arrived, plotting lane to Bop but Laythe getting in my way(not this time laythe, not this time)

Bop arrived, start scanning from polar orbit

I use SCANsat mod to finding anomalies,but it need a time to do its job, so...

2-B-Continue.....

[Nantares]

Flight # 5  finding Kraken 2 : Kraken Hunter

after sending probe to Bop, Now it's time to send Jeb to find it...

Vessel : Kraken Hunter R(R is stand for Revamped because my first design was doesn't work)

Crew : Lisnard,Leagun,Bill and Jebadiah Kerman

Mission : finding Kraken and plant a flag on Bop

 

start from launchpad(AGAIN!!) and going to Kerbin orbit

and this is the "Kraken Hunter R " show itself after fairings was ejected

interplanetary riding in progress...

Jool arrived(AGAIN!!) but this time we use gravity asist from Laythe for getting circularized around Jool

but our main dish is here, Bop...and Jeb feeling over-hyped to be the first Kerbal on Bop(and the first Kerbal who stand in front of the Kraken)

but Jeb found something goes wrong when landed on the marked point...

Jeb : KSC I think our scanner is broken,

KSC : why do you think it's broken?

Jeb : we landed here but I don't see the Kraken.

KSC :   well...Jeb, you flying to the next spot but if there are no Kraken on Bop you just planting flag on Bop and back to Kerbin

Jeb : Ok .

Jeb back to his lander and go to next spot at Bop's north pole, and he founds what he looking for(Easter Egg spoiler, click to read)

Spoiler

Bop's north pole is really dark, but 'something' reveals itself below the lander

yes...it's 'The Kraken' and Jeb is the first kerbal on Bop

Jeb,Bill,Lisnard and Leagun take a photo with the Kraken(they can go closer to Kraken because it's dead)

and Lisnard, the scientist on-board wants to take a sample from dead Kraken

 

 

after messing around Kraken, Jeb and his gang blasting-off to Jool orbit and prepare themselves for going back to Kerbin

the last hours of the mission on Kerbin orbit and setting maneuver(I really hate this word because it hard to spell) to re-entry

splashed down near KSC

CONGRATULATION JEB, MISSION COMPLETE!!!

That skybox looks cool, where is it from?

I will be looking forward to more!

[Nantares]

it's from Nucleartaxi's Skybox @DunaManiac press here to warp

[Nantares]

Sorry for my late, I have issues about KSP 1.8 and mods I used...

however I have a warplane project and it works impressive

Flight 6 : Done in 80 Minutes

This is my attempt to fly around Kerbin within 80 minutes for "Around the World in 80...Minutes" challenge, it's hard to fly in hypersonic speed without burning up but it's finished and nothing blown up..

and this is a mission's video log
