RocketPilot573 Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Reusability?I am going to fire the idiots that forgot to remove the launch clamps before the landing (the rocket tripped over the clamps and crashed). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperHappySquid Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 (edited) I recently started a small Eve colony! It sits on the flat peak of a 6.7km mountain, so when the lander arrives it should be able to get Theoler Kerman into orbit with ease. To keep Theoler company I sent down a small probe named A.R.C.H.I.E (standing for Advanced Reconnaissance Craft and Hazard Identifying Equipment), who has the ability to carry Theoler around as well as perform science on the field.Eve Exploration One - Base camp. Objects from left to right: The Mission Flag, DuneBug One, A.R.C.H.I.E, Theoler, The Cargo Ultra-Light and the Scout Ultra-Light.Both aircraft in flight several kilometres above sea-level. Ion propulsion gives a sufficient push to keep the aircraft in the air, though I do still have to be careful with how much altitude I lose. The Scout Ultra-Light can be seen on the left, with Theoler at the controls. On the right, the Cargo Ultra-Light flies alongside Theoler, with A.R.C.H.I.E piloting it. You can just see his rear wheels poking out the bottom.Theoler Kerman gazed out across the hostile landscape as dusk settled over the mountain. Though the cosy and subdued interior of DuneBug One kept Theoler safe, he still longed for home, to view Kerbin's glistening blue oceans and rolling green grasslands from orbit. It would be a few months before his trip back to Kerbin arrived. He hoped that A.R.C.H.I.E could help him maintain his sanity as he dreamed of returning to Kerbin's amiable serenity.

Mister Dilsby Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Beautiful, have some rep! Can you give the coordinates of that spot please? It's flatter, bigger and higher than any place on Eve I've managed to find yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperHappySquid Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Certainly! I'm afraid I'm not entirely sure how to present the coordinates properly, I hope these suffice. 3 36' 5" S 172 27' 46" WHere's the area on Kerbalmaps. There are several fairly high peaks in that area, and it's also fairly equatorial. I Hope this helps! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's roughly the region I was targeting too, but I ended up at about 5degS 165degW. That site was only about 2000m and not as flat.

Bekiekutmoar Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Turned out my ships in the Joolian System had way too little fuel to return to Kerbin, so they had to rendez-vous and the whole combination was eventually ditched on Pol. It'll be several years untill they'll get rescued. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlpilot Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I crashed a mostly-B9 airplane into the SPH, with better results than I expected!The tail can be seen separating, along with both wings and one of the jet engines. An elevator on the tail has just hit that air-conditioning unit near the centre of the image.-Carlpilot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissioner Tadpole Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I can't tell which of these two shots from my satellite is the prettiest one: Aerocapture at Duna's south pole, or (mostly)Polar Orbit around Duna with Ike visible.Both are pretty, nonetheless. So I shall post both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
