My First Munbase

[Weegee]

I've been playing KSP off and on for a few months now. I've made a few Mun and Minmus landings, but today I decided I wanted to take things up a notch. I decided I wanted to make a Mun base! I didn't take any pictures during the flight since I was having a lot of trouble and didn't know if it would work.

Anyway, PICTURES!

Like the last image said, there is still some work to be done. I'm planning on shipping up at least a rover, maybe some more equipment. And eventually, I will send a shuttle with supplies, then a shuttle to switch out the crew. Stay tuned, and please give feedback!

Edit: Figured out how to embed album

Nice job! I like it! You now just need rovers and such!

[GeneralMDBK]

Great job so far, looks like it has plenty of potential. Keep it up!

Alright, today I designed a rover and flew 2 of them (for weight balance/backup ) to the Mun. It turns out being quite interesting, so make sure to look at all the pictures!

During the course of bringing the rovers back, I learned that they could have definitely used more solar panels, but it'll be okay. I also learned that it doesn't like going sideways on hills at all, especially on high speeds. These things should be manageable, but if they aren't, I can just send up new ones.

Anyway, now that I have rovers I don't know what to do next. Currently, I can't do much more than drive kerbals around and take "samples". I haven't really used mods yet, but I might download Kethane, then make a few probes and send a miner. Then once I have that, I could set up a refueling station and all kinda of other fun things, and maybe make a actual habitation, rather than a science base.

But I'll do what you think I should do next, so please tell me what you'd want to see!
