Ultimate Munar Rocket

[Rocketscience101]

I want someone, you can use whatever you want, but build a rocket that can fly to the Mun, land back on the Kerbin, and then return to the moon a second time, and still return to the Kerbin. No reward, but a really really really awesome rocket, and the best and longest KSP video ever. I just think that would be totally awesome. 8) Good Luck!

Would a free-return trajectory count? Or does it have to be a landing?

[Rocketscience101]

If you can get back to the Mun agian, it doesn\'t matter for the first time. If it can\'t, it doesn\'t count. So yah, just make sure you can do it again. =P

I mean do you have to land on the mun and then return, or can you just do a flyby?

I would try this... as follows, but the amount of processing power I\'d need to have a frame a second on a ship that big is... well more than i have by a very very long way..

'Fly to Mun, land, come home, land, fly to mun on free return.'

I think that should be plenty hard enough... for anyone with a computer that can cope?

Give me a couple of days.

I\'m really eager to see if someone can pull this off

I\'ve got a rocket that definitely probably has the capability, but I lack the patience to actually do this. The problem is that the 1st lander lags permanently if you at any point turn on time dilation. Still can\'t figure out why . . .

The ship is actually designed to do a triple-launch-land on KERBIN. Ie. launch to orbit, land on kerbin, launch to orbit, land on kerbin, launch to orbit, land on kerbin. But it\'s a huge pain in the butt to fly.

Go to the default fuel tank folder and add a few zero\'s at 'fuel ='.

Go to the game and make a rocket:

parachute

command pod

(asas)

fuel tank

engine

Enjoy.

There are a lot of cheat addons that can do this. E.g. Jeb his jetpack

Why not just do this change for the engine?

fuelConsumption = 0

[gabyalufix]

Done. Used no cheat parts. I actually thought the mission would be much harder, so I had tons of spare fuel at every stage. I overkilled it a bit.

Don\'t have time to write up what I did. Just gonna give you guys the imgur album. It\'s pretty self-explanatory.

I\'ll add the craft file too, once I\'ve tested which mods you\'ll need.

Wow, that\'s pretty impressive!

Can you clarify the rules please.

Does a water landing count?

Do you have to land on the mun on either approach ?
