Create a hypothetical mission

[Minmus Taster]

Thought this would be a fun world building exercise. Propose a space mission of some kind. It can be manned or unmanned and take place in any location as long as it is somewhat grounded in known or plausible physics/technology. Build a fictional proposal for a NASA probe or go full kerbal and send an interplanetary craft of poor souls to neptune. If this thread gains traction we could also do votes for which proposals to "fund" like real world concepts.

Go to the planet ISP to get more Delta-V,so that we have enough standard gravitational parameters which affect our arguments of periapsis by mean anomalies.
