[Completed] JNSQ Space Race 2: Two Race, Two Space

[GuessingEveryDay]

Maybe make it a trilogy? Whoever makes it to the Mun first gets 30 points, and then Minmus for 40 points. And then go to Duna with 50 points for whoever gets there first.

Hey look at that! It's 2 page now!

Now that's a proper challenge! Mun landings are easy enough, but it took a nuclear mothership and a pretty significant mining operation on Ike to make a round trip to Duna with a lot of mod parts involved. I could probably cut down on the number of crew and use either NERVs or Wolfhounds to propel the ship but in pure stock it's going to be a much more interesting challenge.

Minmus is actually easier to land on than the Mun, the little delta-V you need to get to Minmus over the Mun is repaid several times over by the much lower orbital speeds meaning landings and returns are both much easier. If anything, Mun and Minmus should be rewarded equally.

Or we could shake things up and activate Minmus' Principia orbit (some minor config hacking editing would be needed but it's pretty easy to do) which puts it inside the Mun's orbit and use that as an easier first target before the Mun.

Let's hope it doesn't end up like the Star Wars prequels and sequels.

The banner could be a simple JNSQ Kerbin with Space Race next to it.

yes and then maybe my idea attached to our flags

or maybe my idea and then all our flag ideas with a link to our profiles if you can do that if not my last idea

maybe my last idea could be like this

           [kerbin in backround]                     [jnsq] [mun in backround] [race]

[rocket] [rocket] [rocket] [rocket]

     /\           /\           /\            /\

  [flag]     [flag]      [flag]      [flag]

So turns out the only software that i know how to use makes a bad flag so i am just making a really bad square logo of Koviet Union's space agency, the Советское Союз Космического Агентства (it means soviet union because it could only translate for soviet) and i will show the logo in a few minutes or something

[Kraken that doesn't exist]

i made my flag but it's not letting me show it so i can't ask for permission for it to be my space agency logo

Is it too late to tell you guys about Luciole? It's an awesome mod that gives you tiny things.

And it gives you CubeSats.

What do you think of my onion rocket idea. Moroz will go perfectly with it.

Trying out a new save.
