Smallest Duna Return Vehicle


Recommended Posts

The goal of this challenge is to make a duna return vehicle AS SMALL as CAN BE!

DISCLAIMER: I did some digging and it appears this is possible so if i'm wrong then i apologize, But i did alot of research and it seems possible!

Rules: You can't use Alt-F12

You can't use HyperEdit

You can't use any type of cheat.

Mechjeb exception! (Since it's not nescessarily a cheat)

I'd like to see pictures proving it's small as possible!

Also you don't need to put the fuel on the return vehicle just the return vehicle itself, like the lander or whatever.

Goal: To make the smallest duna return vehicle possible!

How to win?: Try to make it as small as possible so when compared with atleast 5 with a max of 10 Probe cores. (The square ones.)

What's the prize?: Well for one bragging rights, And for 2 you can have the challenge wraith thing on your signature And if that's not enough YOU EVEN GET A SIGNATURE!!! Here's the preview:

So yeah, Show the picture of your return vehicle, And measured by the probe core amount of atleast 5 to a max of 10 There is exceptions if that number isn't possible, You don't need to go to duna just show it measured and show it itself.

I don't get it -- are you looking for the lowest mass vehicle, or the smallest in height? And are you looking for the vehicle's mass/height on Duna, or does it need to be a vehicle that can launch from Kerbin, land on Duna, and then return?

Lowest mass, or the smallest in height. Either ones are submittable.

You don't got to make the whole thing just the return vehicle. Nor must you land on duna. (The return vehicle dosen't need all the other fuels just the main return vehicle, option to add fuel is accepted but harder)

????????? Wow, I'm even more confused.

I'm pretty sure that without hyper-edit I would need to make an entire ship to even be able to reach Duna? And I don't even have to land?

I really like the sounds of this challenge, but the rules and scoring need a lot of work. Good luck, I'm rooting for you.
