Solids to lunar orbit challenge.

[MrKicker]

This challenge is pretty strait forward. You have to acheave a lunar orbit using ONLY solid rocket boosters.

Rules:

You can ONLY use stock parts.

You have to achieve a stable kerbin orbit before you head off to the mun. (Dosn't have to be circularized)

Your craft has to be manned.

You have to return to kerban.

No casualty's.

No cheating of any sort.

To prove you didn't cheat.You must have these 4 screenshots.

-Over view of craft in VAB. (To show you only have solid rocket boosters.)

-Map view showing your craft in a stable orbit around kerbin.

-Map view showing your craft in a stable orbit around mun.

-Your crew capsule successfully down on kerban. (Along with what's left of your ship.)

The one who dos this in the shortest amount of time wins.

Good luck.

*Kerbin.

Check your spelling and try the challenge first.

Indeed... every sentence except 2 contain spelling errors...

I atempted it. The trick is to find the right amount of solid fuel per event.

When I was trying to find the right amount for takeoff to get me a suborbit. I got board and gave up.

But with all your fancy equasions. You should have no problem finding the right amount.

As for spelling. I couldent care less.

Then you shouldn't start threads. You're acting like a 8yo kid.

Fixxed all the spelling.

[Naten]

Guys, stop. You're all being immature, please just stop it. You can still start threads if you can't spell correctly, have some respect for those who can't spell as good as you. You probably are breaking forum rules now, too, so stop, please. I may have just got myself banned for "backseat moderation," though. Admins, if you ban me for backseat moderation for this, I won't care, because seriously? Look at this guy...

He probably is. Kerbal Space Program's community is just overrun with small children now.

You can't challenge people to do something you can't do yourself. You're liable to turn into a board.

You must be a comedian. Because you make predictable jokes.

LOL

[Mephane]

No, he is right. Especially when the OP then claims to have quit trying because "I got bored". This is like coming here and saying "I am bored and lazy, now entertain me."

[Hejnfelt]

I gave it a shot.

14 boosters for Kerbin escape and 3 small boosters for adjustment for re-entry.

And we're off!

Speed and inclination looking better than expected

So far so good. Time to check our path...

Damnit... Well I still have 3 small boosters...

FIRE!!!

Well that didn't help at all :S

Zooming past at a distance of a few million kilometers.

My three bodies in one silhouette shot. Mun left, Kerbol middle and Kerbin right. Jebediah looks thrilled!

Jebediah's unfortunate eternal home...

I'm certain getting to the moon is possible with solids, but it's surely not easy.

[Hejnfelt]

I gave it a shot.

14 escape boosters and 3 tiny correctional boosters for Kerbin re-entry.

We're off!

Speed and inclination looking good.

So far so good.

Damnit!.. Well I have my 3 correctional boosters.. Hmm...

CORRECTIOOOON!!

Hmm...

Only a few million kilometers past.

Mun left, Kerbol middle, Kerbin right. Jebediah looks so thrilled.

Jebediah's new unfortunate eternal home...

I'm sure it's possible to get to Mun and back but it's really effing difficult.

[Naten]

He probably is. Kerbal Space Program's community is just overrun with small children now.

I am 11 years old, but I can pass the average college astronomy test :I

Still, I don't laugh whenever I burp.

[Naten]

You must be a comedian. Because you make predictable jokes.

LOL

So, you're insulting someone for their "bad" sense of humor, and throwing in a "LOL" at the end, which signals laughing? WHAAAAAT? We need the eggheads to figure this out for us!

And congratulations on spelling everything right that post...

Here are all of your spelling errors that you "fixxed." I used to feel sympathy for you, but really?

This is turning into a "find all spelling errors" challenge

Guys, what if you're all just done mocking someone with dyslexia?

While this is a fair point, unless you're using an ancient browser, there should be a spelling error correction option. I use it all the time.

[John FX]

Well, way to threadjack someones challenge guys. Don`t you have anything better to do than troll?

[ramnrmeul]

A lot of people have better stuff to do rather than troll. They just decide not to do those things.

[Naten]

It's not really the spelling. It's the lack of real "structure" in the challenge.

[Naten]

We're not trolling. This is obviously someone just looking for entertainment in people trying their challenge, because they're "bored." Also, well...

As for spelling, I couldent care less.

Proof. Seriously? I think a moderator should punish me for this, though. Anyways, you don't upload a challenge for your own entertainment. It's for the CHALLENGERS' entertainment. I think it says so in the Challenge Guidelines. I mean, seriously. YOU JUST DON'T DO THAT! It's quite unethical.

[Naten]

You missed two...

Pardon me. Didn't copy the first sentence, must have forgot... :/
