Pudgemountain Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Over the weekend I sent 2 landing probes to Plock and Karen and took some pictures mostly in the dark given how far they are but still. First probe named Gonk landed on Plock. The next probe named Manager successfully touched down on Karen but this time we added lights to the probe.

jimmymcgoochie Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 SSTO spaceplane to a moon with an oxygenated atmosphere and back. If only just… That’s the target on the horizon. This planet and that moon are mutually tidally locked, so it’s always there and so easy to aim for. On Kerbin, you can use Panther jets up to about 15,000m altitude; on this moon (Lua) it’s less than 1500m, which is great because the mountains can be up to 3km tall. The atmosphere only extends 10km above sea level too, so flying at all is a challenge second only to Duna. Landing was, hmm, interesting with such a thin atmosphere, but this plane handles well at low speeds and the payload (an ore scouting rover) was deployed safely. Air-dropping it wouldn’t have worked as it would have left physics range before touching down and been eaten by the Kraken. Back to a real atmosphere, though the direct return from Lua to Rhode was about the same speed as a normal Kerbin re-entry. One last shot of Lua rising on the horizon before the final descent towards the KSC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LezRowl Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 I present to you, the RV-MnS10.. the name doesn't take the spotlight. Small rover designed for long & steep expeditions on Minmus, averaging 40 km/h speeds on flat surfaces. A 3D effect is created when quickly switching between the two similar pictures (not scrolling) Front perspective (different visual configurations): I can say that I have rolled this vessel over, I can't say how much.

I assume that you are asking about the visual mods, as for part mods there isn't a ton other than SCANsat. A list of all visual mods: AVP, EVE, TUFX with custom config, Sunflares of Maar, Distant Object Enhanced, PlanetShine, Parallax, and Scatterer. I hope I listed all of them.

Um I'm not sure actually, I'm just using the default JNSQ scatterer configs. Sorry that I can't be of much help here, I don't really understand this haha. 10 hours ago, Astra Infinitum said: and is that the shadow im seeing of the command pod right beneath it, kin of on the water? or am i seeing the bottom of the command pod through the water?

It should come with the ReStock mod as a variant/skin, I think. I didn't use TURD so it couldn't be that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DunaManiac Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 This is a snapshot of a mission to the mothership, Jewel 2, currently interred in LKO awaiting its next mission, using one my largest spaceplanes. The spaceplane was to deliver modules for a space station that Jewel 2 will deliver and assemble over the Mun, which can be seen on the right.
