Altair

The Altair is a lunar lander that can comfortably seat two, with a kerbalnaut clinging to the ladder outside. It is designed for lunar ladnings, and does not poesses the capability to return to Kerbin. It is "slighty" overpowered, so it is best if you keep it on low throttle during descent. Very, low throttle.

Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle

The Orion MPCV is a command module designed to withstand inter-plantery return speeds, and is used for missions to the moon and Mars. The craft is launched on an Ares I, and then docks with the lander/MTV. This is the most barebones of the Program. Sort of slow, but still, it works.

Mods Used: Circular Panel Mod. http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/0-18-2-circular-solar-panel-2 (Its for 0.18.2, but works with 0.19.1. I resized it to 2.)

Ares I

The Ares I, (aka. The Porkaloius), is an rocket used for launching the Orion MPCV. Unlike its former precessdor, the Ares ITU (Ares One Testing Unit), this rocket is highly capable of reaching orbits well over 500km (With tons of fuel to spare), and is an highly capable rocket. The top of the rocket is an Orion MCPV with an tested and capable escape tower.
