Too Much Delta V

[Deejay2000]

I've recently done a mission to go to Duna. I made a ship that I thought would be able to get into orbit, turns out I had a couple thousand extra delta V.

Keep in mind this was done before I had nuclear engines.

So here's my ship in orbit (along with part of the launch stage).

I got myself to Duna with just that launch stage, but abandoned it because I didn't have very much torque.

Just doing the aerobraking maneuver.

I thought, "Maybe I'll land on Ike, I've got plenty of fuel."

What the heck, may as well head off to Jool.

Laythe is looking pretty in the distance...

Final orbit, I ran out of fuel (except 3 liters)

I earned 3300 science points from one mission.

So, that proves that you don't need nuclear engines for interplanetary missions.
