Kerbal Explorationary (Mun base, Minmus rescue and more!) [IMAGES]

[Bob's Guardian Angel]

Kerbals all over the world were elated by the first successful Mun landings and colonization efforts. However, the established infrastructure is aging, and we at the KEX launched a new program: the Kauna Kea Initiative. Named after a famous Kerbal observatory, the KKI is designed to stargaze and hold a crew of five scientists and workers, in conjunction with future plans for expansion.

The first mission was headed by Thompoly Kerman, a brave Kerbal who was also the first Kerbal to walk on the Mun and had advocated for a return there.

Liftoff!

Burning to the Mun. Thompoly is halfway through his snack reserves.

Orbital hooha.

During correctional burns Thompoly caught sight of a beautiful Kerbin almost-eclipse.

Landing next to an outdated piece of mission architecture. Thompoly is elated!

Last few meters...

Nailed it!

Thompoly plants a flag.

Up next: Crew transfer and work duties! I'll post more shortly!
