Isn't going to Eve and returning harder?

Depends, have you gone to Eeloo and back saftly as well as gone to Eve and back saftly? If not, you cannot really compare the two just yet. I'd assume that Eeloo's difficulty comes from the Delta-V requirements and the interplanetary manuvers. Where as on Eve, it's the gravity and thick atmosphere.

Isn't going to Eve and returning harder?

Getting to Eve: easy

Landing on Eve: easier

Getting to orbit from Eve: Hard²

The Rules

Even simpler.

1. Can't use Hyperedit, ORDA, debug... anything that auto alters cfg's, changes the physics and the like.

2. Use everything else. This is a challenge to do with your favorite save with all your favorite add on's. All your orbital stations, prebuilt rocket designs, barely flyable spaceplanes, MechJeb, Kams, Kat, and maneuver nodes.

3. You can take as many vehikles as you like in any configuration, but their can be only one manned flight for landing on Eeloo.

would using the mod FAR be within the rules?

Yes. Eve is harder. A lot harder.

Finally got a probe there. Now to refit things to get a Kerbal there. Eeloo is a long way away.

1: You just necro'd a thread. You don't do that.

2: That's not how the tag works. You need to upload it to a website first, your COMPUTER ISN'T A SERVER, IS IT?

The funny thing is, I was sub'ed to this thread so I got an email saying everyone started posting here again!

The sad thing Is, I just realized I haven't been to Eeloo since 21.x. Now I have to go back...

Cheers!
