Curiosity's 1st Year on Mars


Recommended Posts

If you're interested, here's a .craft file for the rover. I stripped all the modded parts off it, so it's just a basic chassis here.

WOW Sapphire that is quite impressive. I especially like your rover design. Would you be willing to share your craft files with the mod parts so we can appreciate your extraordinary design skills? I'm in love with your rover.

This was my own go at replicating Curiosity, its flight and landing.

Here are some photos to flick through:

I was aiming for the buried rover easter egg, but couldn't find it. After all that careful tweaking to get the trajectory right too. Perhaps I got the coordinates wrong.

But it was a cool mission in the end, despite many troubles along the way.

Mechjeb's data shows just how sudden the powered deceleration was.

Landing Curiosity style is pretty intense.

Im still kinda fresh in the game and havent really bothered with anything more than the mun and minimus... Mabye this is a good time to do so. :)

Same. Landed on Minmus and the Mun one each. Tried sending a probe to Duna, but it failed.
