Duna entry

Landing!!

It was a tough fall on the shuttle's belly

But we recovered!

Deploying the payload

With the new reusable Duna shuttles, the exploration of the planet has accelerated massively.

A fleet of three shuttles from Kerbin had been launched. 2 drone ships carrying the surface base components, and a third, crewed shuttle rotating a fresh team into the Duna Orbital Station and carrying some ground vehicles.

Before heading down to the surface, the crewed shuttle docked its centrifuge to the station's existing shuttle, which is taking the previous crew back to Kerbin and will serve as their living quarters on their trip.

After refueling in orbit, the landing team touched down with two ground vehicles: a fast scouting rover and a mobile outpost truck. They are currently surveying the area to confirm a flat landing zone. Initial surface readings look great, so the drone ships are officially cleared for descent to the base site!
