3mon Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Just escaped Eeloo with Jeb, Bill and Bob, and matched planes and intersected Kerbins orbit with a bit over 8'5k DV still left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlamedSteak Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 My burn time is currently reading 1h 3m.......so I guess today I'll be watching my big ass refuelling craft do a burn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User Unrelated Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 (edited) You can try to bounce back and forth between the moons instead of going into a low Jool orbit. It can net you a metric ton of science. Just spam your experiments while you are flying by. Aim for Tylo.I did pretty well, if you ask me.http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/59714-My-first-ever-trip-to-Joolmath math mathno, I mean... the odds of me shooting STRAIGHT into jool, and just-so-happen to have a direct aerobrake-worthy laythe periapsis without even really doing anything to try and get that.

Biker Joe Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 Landed the main section of my Mun base, now must try and figure out how to build the other sections! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geschosskopf Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I got my armada of 24 ships all heading to Jool. That took 4h 40m but I finished the last before the 1st left Kerbin's SOI . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liowen Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I spent the day working on a lander for Duna/Eve mission, but not 100% sold on my design yet. I still need a tug though, but for that I am thinking an unmanned probe with atomic motors, docking ports, fuel, and RCS. I still would like to try a single lander mission without docking, but not sure if I can do that right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sun Posted November 26, 2013 Share Posted November 26, 2013 I launched the Aeris 4A into orbit for the first time and had a critical failure 500m above the ground during landing (fuel tanks all exploded), which almost led to Jebediah's death. He was only saved by a Vanguard EVA Parachute.:sticktongue: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liowen Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Oh wait I lost Bill today also. I was practicing docking maneuvers and went to bring the ships back home....well decoupling the ships must be a bad thing. I had chutes deployed on both, but sadly Bill is lost. I guess I need more practice or do like I thought and just use a probe tug for interstellar transporting of the landers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KerbMav Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Noticed it wasnt and so did so and added KAS to the techtree.Launched a refueling ship to rescue my failed Minmus expedition - only to notice after I got it into orbit and was about to start rendezvous burns, that I could have just enabled fuel transfer for the fairing base between two tanks and start off right away ...Didnt go far, stumbled over a bug that crashes my game repeatedly ...

Monkeh Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Carried on with trying to get to Duna and back only using the toroidal and round tanks. Not quite got enough delta v yet, getting close though and a few more tweaks and we go for it I reckon.Nice mod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blizzy78 Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Made an Apollo-style mission to landing on Duna, ascended back up, exited Duna's sphere of influence, only to notice that I don't have enough dV to make it back to Kerbin. So I sent out a rescue mission to rendezvous in Kerbol orbit, which went just fine. The next problem was that the rescue vehicle had room for enough Kerbals, but only one of the pods had parachutes. So I had to send another "rescue" mission up into Kerbin orbit to get the last guy out of his misery. They all made it back home safely.

Geschosskopf Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 The Kraken is going to love you.I dunno. There's a rumor the Kraken is dead and one of these ships is tasked with bringing back proof of that .Now I know what it looks like when a planet has explosive diarrhea. >_<I was thinking the same thing. I'm also thinking that Kerbin is now on a death spiral into the sun. Throwing all this mass out prograde should have reduced its orbital velocity by quite a bit .

annallia Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Minmus decided it didn't want a station...After three failed launches of the station core, another failed launch of the power station and a failed launch of the final fuel tank I thought I was almost done.As it stands now I have 2 large part warehouses set to slingshot around Minmus and probably leave Kerbin SOI (Orbit view says it will, I think it might come back) because the tug I was using to to move it into place that had moved all of those pieces into place without fuel worries decided one of the lightest parts would drain its tanks mid way to the moon.

Deadweasel Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 [TABLE=width: 800]<tbody>[TR][TD]After the press had finally wandered away from the facility, Bilster went on a tour of the space center. So much has changed since he left with the Duna Explorer mission, three years ago!Look at all this fuel by the hangar! Who'd ever need this much at once? >_>[/TD][/TR]</tbody>[/TABLE] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
