Aquila Program Mission Reports

-----

Mission:

Research, plan, develop, and launch a program that ends with 6 brave kerbals landing, surviving and eventually returning from, the surface of Duna.

Rules:

-Only stock parts, procedural fairings and calculators will be used.

-All manned modules will be supplied with electricity at all times.

-There is only enough funding for one fully fledged mission, so any mistakes must be overcome when the final launches take place.

-Small test flights that do not leave LKO are permitted.

Directors:

-Fros7bite

-7yphoid

Documentation:

Only one post should be submitted per director, with all updates being edited into that post by the director.
