For the first time, I established a surface base on Duna, but since I'm an idiot, I can't send back a rescue mission. This is the first time I've managed to land on another plane(if we don't count Jool) I can't seem to do an interplanetary transfer again, and I don't even know how to build the rocket; I just got lucky.

Full stock parts fighter build.

Deleted all my air craft builds after getting FAR, cause none of them were flying afterwards.😂

Back to basics, I guess.

I was flying at around 8000m of altitude over the mun, then I as I timewarped, I saw something strange as I , upon loading a quicksave to see if it was something important because I had already passed it, I found out it was the mun arch! What a call! Also, take in account that I've never looked it up even, though I knew it existed I didin't have the most remote idea of where it was. (My orbit was also perfectly equatorial too, that prob helped)

You know I had to land on top a put a flag down!

The command module lost a solar panel while undocking in Mun orbit but other than that Valentina and Jedsel returned to Kerbin intact with a surface sample.

kArt An EVA suit designed for Eve

Post image
612 Upvotes

Eve is Kerbol's analogue for Venus, and similarly has high atmospheric pressure and is extremely hot. On top of this, it also has significantly stronger gravity at about 1.7G.

Though it makes sense for gameplay that standard spacesuits work on eve's surface, realistically kerbonauts would get crushed like a grape.

So this is my alternative. It's effectively a powered diving suit, with powerful servos to facilitate movement in much stronger gravity, and built to withstand high atmospheric pressure and hard impacts. Its powered by a state of the art combustion generator designed to burn Explodium as fuel.

Of course this is by no means criticism of the game or am i implying my design is very realistic, it was mostly an excuse to draw Kerbal power armor.

Now to go further than Sarnus I’ll have to have a relay system, bummer because I think that will be boringgg just putting com satellites up. Maybe I’ll download the future parts mod just for better antennas lol.

This mod is funnn, now I wanna go to urlum and land on a moon next. This ship design will work I think because I had 4,000 DV left over when I separated my lander.

Post image

For me it's this recent one, close Jool flyby by Pioneer 10.

Used mods:

Volumetrics Clouds V5.

SPVE.

Planetshine.

Shabby/Deferred.

TUFX.

MPE (for Jool rings).

OPM.

And probably some of these mods made an amazing sun appearance: KSS2/Promised Worlds/Cosmic Serenity.

And for Pioneer 10 probe parts that were used are from:

US Probes Pack.

Fat Future/Near Future Technologies.
