Noobs 6 & 7: Munflight!

After hearing Klamperture Science's announcement,

23 hours ago, HansonKerman said:

that's cool. thats cool. ill be able to do a mun landing. 

N.E.W.B industries rushed to be the first to flyby the Mun. So, they built the Noob 6.

After successfully getting into orbit, Noob 6 performed a Mun flyby and gathered a sweet, sweet dose of science:

With all the new science, the R & D guys made some new stuff:

Next, with the new science earned, the engineers at the VAB churned out the Noob 7:

Noob 7 perfectly performed what it was intended to do: orbit the Mun, and gather more science. And a healthy dost of more science it did!

With all that science, R & D made some new stuff once again:

Technical Info:

Both Noobs 6 & 7 took about ~4 days, give or take. Parts are in the screenshots.

Noob 7 Album

 

Beware, the albums are out of order!

that’s it. We at Klamperture need to step up our game

never mind. I would like to inform you that you just “earned” 28 points from part cpunt alone!

make that 38! How long was Noob 6’s flight?

is “that’s cool, that’s cool, ill be able to do a mun landing” an announcement?

4 days I said. I don't really care about points really, I just want to do it.

Thats a good attitude!

(i hope you win :D)

Okay, good news! I actually made a save of the rocket, so now I can do this!

 

Unfortunately, I have way too many screenshots of the flight to make any sense of any of it, so here are some pics of the landing! All you need to know is the part count of 36 and the MET. I did orbit around the Mun, did some science close to and in space high from the Mun, etc etc

Oh yeah. There's another picture.

hey lookatthis

"Cave Kerman here! We're about to do some serious science up in here!"

Thanks to that unprecented windfall of Science Points, we've decided...

it's time...

to science.

 

With one mission, we got 370 science. In laykerbal's terms...

 

science?

yes

This looks fun. I might consider joining if possible next time...maybe. Probably not.

Why not? This is really fun, I will probably do another. Consider it.

 

"And I don't say that lightly, mind you, so take that as the biggest compliment you'll ever get in your life."

(it's not the biggest compliment you'll ever get, it's just me saying that it'd be cool if you did :D)

Noob 8: Is That Mint I Taste?

Following Noob 7, N.E.W.B industries used the new science to churn out shiny new parts. And they created the Noob 8, bound for Minmus:

[Lack of images of Minmus because the periapsis was like 1,784,638 or something, and you couldn't see it. But I still got the science!]

Noob 8 successfully got science from Minmus, and even flew by the Mun on the way. However, it failed to take pictures of minmus, mainly because it was hard to spot, even at a periapsis of 1,683,472 or something. It safely returned, and gathered some science:

With all that science, the R & D guys churned out some new parts:

Mun landing, here we come!

 

 

Technical Info

I didn't bother to take pictures of the part count, because it's just the Noob 7 with the FLT-200 switched to a FLT-400, so they have identical part counts. The mission lasted ~ 4 days.

Beware, the album is out of order!

Who will take the giant leap first?

its close!

ME

 

peobly not but we can hope

 

But the minty tap of a Kerbal foot on a Minmus crystal... That’s something the Enrichment Center intends to have done first.

 

I’ll let N.E.W.B Industries have their moment.

 

but like I’m not saying the giant leap isn’t good ;;;;;;)

we'll see about that :p

No, I'm just adding suspense because I'm going to lose anyway. I'm a noob, after all. Look how much science Hanson gets!

also i thought of a maybe good way to reward reusability: every 10 parts recovered is -5 points, so if you made a fully 100% reusable mission you'd only pay the point cost in MET and the launch

but then we'll need mods though...

you’re going to land on a moon first and that’s that ;). You’re talking like I’m good at the game, but in reality I’ve been playing since 0.23 and still haven’t conducted a full Dres mission. and I’ve been around longer than Matt Lowne has been making KSP vids

it’s not worth an entry, but I just got a lil bit of science and researched Aviation.
