[Mod & Stock] (KW/B9/Mechjeb) Apollo Style: Munraker

[Kellas]

I decided to start a new game and do a proper apollo style mun landing. It was a lot of fun, though I still can't figure out why my rocket wobbles in the middle so much... I'm pretty sure NASA didn't have that problem. The landing can is the root part, so two more crew members must be shuttled up to the command module.

I did my best to stick to the aesthetic of the original Saturn V launch vehicle, with some compromises for practicalities sake. The lander is mostly stock, but I used KW fuel tanks and engines on the first stages, as well as KW decouplers because they looked nicer. I think all I used from B9 are the flat RCS tanks. Given how little RCS I ended up using, those could probably be stripped out. It's a bit overkill in some respects. I think I could have gotten away with using much less fuel, but I might take it to a heavier gravity world with some modifications.
