For my Kerbals


Brapness

Recommended Posts

Recently I posted a thread asking for suggestions for how I should honor a large number of Kerbals I lost in a Kraken glitch. After firing a 21 SRB salute and losing a further 3 kerbals who were spectating a plan formed in my mind. Now after much effort I present to you the culmination of my plans. You see retribution against the kraken is difficult. Conventional weapons are useless, but space must be made safe for all Kerbalkind. So...

540 parts and 130 tonnes of cage.

I want to see pictures of what put it into orbit! And the transplanetary drive! I'm always a fan of big big builds!

Not just big... but "what the... how the hell you do that???" big builds :sticktongue:

Nice job capturing the kraken. Calamari anyone?

The launcher is not particularly interesting. It just limps into orbit if you follow a good trajectory. As for how it flies, surprisingly straight - until you need to turn, at which point you might as well start praying

The interplanetary stage was just 2 of these. They just managed a one-way trip to Jool pushing the cage, where I docked another 2 in order to insert into Bop orbit. As for how they flew, very, very slowly...
