10k of DeltaV, creativity challenge

[Synapse]

I designed the following spacecraft as a high deltaV rocket, newb friendly with a low part count. The result is Leviathan:

The challenge is to use Leviathan in whatever way you see fit. A total launch time gives you 7km/s in 15 minutes. This ship has a lot of possibilities - it's capable of going anywhere in the system including into Kerbol, with up to 4 passengers and a full RCS tank. It can reach the Mun in 40 minutes. It also has docking abilities. Put your creativity to the test and show me what you can do!

A test launch:

Ditching the first stage:

Still a lot of fuel to go:

Final speed - 7km/s. And that's with a really inefficient launch profile.

Aww, is nobody interested in this?

Most of us are just lurking around.

Sorry

Can only speak for myself, but I think the challenge terms are a little too vague. I think a lot of us are probably already doing exactly that (seeing what we can do) with our own creations.

If you want to set a challenge it should probably be some specific task with at least moderately difficult to achieve with solid goals that you lay out.

As for the rocket itself, it looks like a solid, sound design.

I guess ill be trying this out soon. Should be up in a day or 2.

Return mission from a Moho landing is a pretty expensive trip.

I should have known the name "Leviathan" was already used for a ship. I'll need to change mine then, no biggie.

I love your ship! I find myself wondering how you ended up with 10k Delta-V. Is that after getting to orbit? I'll download it and give her a try.
