Many has regarded EVE as a formidable enemy due to its dreaded gravity and suffocating thick atmosphere. 

With Breaking Ground DLC, the propellers have made an SSTO to low EVE orbit possible. 

I have decided to take this challenge face on over the Thanksgiving break!

And, behold, the EVE SSTO AKATSUKI

Sorry about the interface which is in my native language, but I'm sure that most of the stuff is pretty self-explanatory.

 

I was told that EVE SSTOs are ugly because they have to optimize according to how the game calculates drag and lift.  After days of grinding, I have proven them all wrong!

No need to squeeze Kerbonauts inside tiny service bays, no need to awkwardly stacking wings,  no need to suffer the eye sore of an ugly craft. 

I named this SSTO after the fabled Akatsuki lake on EVE. Few have found the Akatsuki lake biome and even fewer people has made an EVE SSTO.  I am willing to share all the necessary details about how I made this craft if anyone else wishes to take on the same challenge. Feel free to ask me about anything.
