The Next Step - A KSP Space Race

[SuperMiiBrother]

No, they’re just clamps

[HansonKerman]

yeah. I figured pad stability enhancers dont make sense to count toward part count

[HansonKerman]

Before we begin more advanced crewed missions, we must turn our sights toward something else. 
After getting many many emails from the Kerbal Space Administration (me being a noob and not being good at landing on the Mun or Minmus), we have turned our sights to a... less... valuable form of crew.

Introducing: sentient robots!

[SuperMiiBrother]

But that means less science

 

BORING

[HansonKerman]

I have antenna! I can transmit some science from space above Minmus!

 

and then after that I’m going to try my hand at landing on either one

[HansonKerman]

just sent a probe to minmus

got 49 science. It’s not much but hey, that’s life. Perhaps it was not that efficient considering the amount of points it cost

I have the “honor” of being the first to triple digits

[HansonKerman]

also if anyone who can do that sort of thing would stop buy, could you make me a Klamperture Science flag?

 

like, it’s the same as the Aperture Science logo , but change the word Aperture to Klamperture pls

 

its fine if u don’t, but it’d be something nice you could do  <3

I mean, it took me literally 5 minutes to make the N.E.W.B Industries flag, but sure. Of course, I can't right now, as I'm on my phone.

aww thanks

Klamperture Science Minmal Automated Communications Satellite

 

Hello, investors! Cave Kerman here. We'd like your attention for a few minutes. This is the Klamperture Science Minmal Automated Communications Satellite. It will open up the limits of unkerballed missions, and is part of the program to let us legally get to Duna... for some reason...

Using patented Klamperture Science Material Phasing Technology (part clipping, i dont have farings so i have to do the best i can. plus, its better looking), Klamperture can accelerate aerodynamics into the next decade, all while looking good. 

Flying! One of my nicer looking rockets. The FLT-800 is a step up in both rocket looks and part count. Have I ever mentioned how nice these AV-R8 winglets look?

<I forgot to take pics of circularization, so have a pic of inclination change, featuring the second stage.>

With Klamperture Science Material Phasing Technology, the impossible and the hard-to-beautify is easy!

(I didn't like how long the radial antenna were, i needed a relay dish, and I wanted to make sure it was safe, so I clipped them into the Science Jr. I also clipped a Communutron 16 in there. It looks nice and that's all there is to it.) (also for some reason the nose cone became dark. idk if it turned into another variant or something, but it was temporary. shadow glitch? eh, whatever)

About to begin maneuver node to Minmus.

 

Ahh... that's something that satisfied me more than I can say. MINMUS!

<pings minmus derp>

<burns the wrong way>

OH FRICK

So i fixed that in a jiffy.

Thank Science, I thought our testing spree mission had come to an end!

no not really

I circularized into an orbit that brought me "close to" minmus, and then realized something

The tradeoff during transmission Our antennas are really bad.

and it's just taunting me with that 100 science. Eh. Maybe next time. Science is science though! Especially at...

Klamperture Science

ok that was really bad lol

And that wraps that up! Next up:

Uh dude? I just landed on the mun. There's a problem though. I think I pressed some wrong key or something?!, because all of the technology has been researched? Might be a bug or something, and there's no way to reset it. I'm going to try some save file editing.

 

{ edit }

Well, I tried editing, and it didn't work.  

Since I think it's unfair with the whole tech tree, I'm dropping out. I'll post Noob 9's flight later, but that's it.

No, see, I started over again. And then the tech tree just maxed itself out after Noob 9. Wait, you can cheat the tech tree to max!? Maybe that's the key I pressed or smth? Idk.

god...

ok maybe ...

um

gaaaaahhhhh

nononononono

this cannot... like.

HOW AND WHY

help

ok, maybe just...

this is stupid

I said I'll drop out to make it fair :p

ok, there's gotta be somethng we can do

 

i'll try to figure out what file contains tech nodes

I FOUND IT!!!!!!!!

iT's persistent.sfs

unfortunately

i used a feature on windows

it finds what you want to find using words

i think its called"find"

dont drop out pls D:

there's a way

I guess this was a failure

maybe i'll do another one... someday

 

bye

also, @SuperMiiBrother just consider what you said

bye...

is anyone interested in a JNSQ space race? I know @The Dressian Exploder ran one a while ago. If you're interested go ahead and pm me.
