Auriga - Career Mode Save - Normal Difficulty


Recommended Posts

The new Auriga Space Program; with ambitious goals rolls out it's first "Rocket" the Iota 1. Being mainly a test flight for science and contract completion, It's looks didn't look that different than any other "Flea" rockets from other companies.  (I can't upload the picture for some reason) However, it was a necessary milestone for the agency.

Iota 2 Logs

After the Iota 1 was the even less majestic Iota 2, with a thumper engine for the 1st stage and a Swivel for the second, it was almost too tall for the starter VAB. The rocket was designed for a sub-orbital flight above the atmosphere. The gimbal-less thumper engine did most of the altitude gain while the Swivel was meant to give it a less straight-down fall. The rockets highest altitude being 365,854 meters, crushing any record previously made by commercial companies. Better thermal protection is definitely needed due to 2 thermometers exploding. 32 science was earned and a contract completed.

Epsilon 1 Log

 

An insanely tall rocket (30 meters) with just enough delta v to get to the Mun and back.  Didn't unlock maneuver nodes yet, still barely managed a mun encounter. Fly-By went well, exiting wasn't so good though. I'm not sure if it was a glitch or not but when i had a speed of 1,000 m/s  the map still said I had an eliptical orbit (out past Minmus), ended up time warping and getting an escape trajectory. Was able to barely make a burn and land back at Kerbin. First thing I did after was unlock maneuver nodes
