How much tech points i can get from rendezvous two kerbaled craft on Kerbin orbit


Recommended Posts

I did on unmaned flyby around Mun and get 20 points so if would made maned i will get extra pointa?

But i would need big rocket to send Jeb around Mun

If you do a manned mission you'll get much more science. You can do an EVA-Report over every biome (basically every big crater) in low orbit, each of those alone is 24 points. A crew report is also worth at least 15 (but not for every biome while in orbit).

Landing will get you even more, collecting a surface sample is 150 (I think) and all instruments also get you quite a bit more than just from orbit. Crew and EVA Reports also get you quite big rewards.

Let me put it this way: I did a landing on Minmus and flew by the Mun on the way back to Kerbin, which got me pretty much exactly 1000 science.

Once you unlock solar panels thr whole universe opens up to you

True, once you've got the solar panels, considering rushing the nuclear engines so you can get out to the other planets more easily. Heck, even getting to and from the Mun is easier with LV-Ns.

Congrats on Mun landing!

Wise investment on electrics. Once you unlock solar panels thr whole universe opens up to you

Thanks, frankly I was surprised that I was able to on the first try without smashing(I landed on sandbox several time, but it was long time ago), but i haven't fuel to return to Kerbin, I saved the save file, thus maybe it's bit cheating.

That's my craft all stock.

maybe but wasteful especially as the next update will add management of the budget. For interplanetary missions these engines are indeed essential, though probably not suitable for landing.

No, this works well.

If you take Goo canisters and a science bay, both good for extra points, you will need a little more rocket. (without the probe.)
