Cavscout74 Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Landed the third crew on Duna for this career. The pilot seems rather excited about it. The actual lander is an old, not very good design that's been in orbit of Duna for quite a while. Still works though, as long as its pretty flat ground. Also finally got almost all my ships in place around Laythe & transferred the vet crew over to prepare for a landing: Buffalo rover & surface outpost already landed: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Sly Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 (edited) I launched a large crew segment to my space station "Skylab X," using my partly stock space shuttle. Docked to the station two days (kerbal time) after takeoff and had my space tug dock the crew segment to the station. I mainly did this to complete a contract but I think it was good to expand this station to be used for future missions to other planets. Edited April 17, 2018 by Captain_Sly Whoops, didnt mean to do that. How do I add photos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luizopiloto Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 @Azimech is the best Krakentechnician around... Today I made a bearing that can improve Krakentech™ contraptions a lot... because it can be abused beyond normal operation and it will not fail... The trick there is, 4 ticks space from absolute grid gives the exact diameter to match the rcs ports... The rcs ports axle must be assembled attaching the first one to the root part and all the subsequent ones to the preview rcs port... To hold it in place you have to use the atmospheric analyzer in 6x radial symmetry. It must be perfectly aligned, because if you leave it too loose, the bearing will vibrate, too tight and it will also vibrate... It's very compact, very resistant/reliable, and can be scaled up to any desired length you need. I have some pics of crafts using this bearing and a craft file you can get to try it first hand:https://kerbalx.com/luizopiloto/XF-31-Canary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LameLefty Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 (edited) A number of things in my current long-term Career exploration save are coming to fruition. My first landing on Eeloo since, oh ... maybe 0.26? And my Joolian missions started coming together as modules for a Bop-orbiting resource station started arriving in-system.

TheKorbinjer Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I installed RSS to 1.3.1 since 1.2.2 wasn't working for me (???) and i built a Venus probe that didn't go to venus. (Lost contact with a relay probe less than 1000 km away) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angelo Kerman Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 I established an outpost on Minmus: Left to right: Payin, Bobus, and Commander Valentina Kerman (Kerman Navy). This is the first landing on Minmus for the Kerman States, and the first spaceflight for Payin and Bobus. Both Payin and Bobus are veterans of the Kerbin Elcano Exploration Project.

Triop Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 (edited) Today we've started our Doom tour part 4. Climbed up the first hill, the secret is to plan a route first and then zig-zag your way to the top. Still a long way to go . . . EDIT: We are getting closer..

Triop Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Just now, Delay said: Good luck! I hope you make it this time! Thanks, me too. I don't allow myself to save, so it has no room for error. The last part is the hardest, very steep mountain, I'll need full batts for that, breaking is useless. One steering mistake and I'll be sliding down the mountain. It's night now so I have to wait till morning before I can continue my yourney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
