Probe Carrier - For temp sand atmosphere measurements

[Russell0]

Sooooo I unlocked the thermometer and the atmosphere reader and wondered how I would go and get the data from kerbin quickly.

So I made this! It allows me to drop little probes in different biomes to gather science!

Each probe has small thrusters, solar panels, thermometers, a parachute and atmosphere readers.

So heres some pictures of the carrier and the drones dropping.

Though when it was all said and done and I retireved the probes I didnt really get that much science.. not a lot actually

I have only been to the Mun and Minimus so after I have found some more science on those 2 i'm going to head toooo Duna!

Trying to unlock the last tier of rockets at the moment, anyway let me know what you think and if you have any advice on gaining science, your own creations or getting to Duna i'm all ears.

Thank you for your time.

I love the feeling of advancing through career with limited techs.

Anyway I just wanna remind you that temp sensors can get a report while landed on Mun and Minmus. (or any non-atmospheric place.)

What I'm getting at, is that your probe-machine should prove quite effective on minmus as well, with minor edits, since leaving minmus is just about the easiest thing in the world.

Ah great! Thank you for your tip

Just yesterday i was thinking about something along those lines. Today i find you beat me to it by a day. :-/

Guess i'll just have to make my design more awesome
