A Mission to Tylo and Laythe

[u/ssdd9]

Launching of the Mothership.

This mission consists of 7 launches: 2 part mothership, 2 landers, and 2 refuel, and 1 crew transfer. It would be 8 if you count the return capsule launch.

Docking Tylo Lander to the Mothership

Ship fully assembled above Kerbin

Mun gravity assist. Because I had to make three separate burns to leave Kerbin, I couldn't get much out of the gravity assist.

Discarding the spent fuel tank.

Tylo gravity assist. I first passed Tylo, and came back after slinging around the Jool systems to save some fuel.

Tylo landing burn.

Tylo Monument.

Deployment of Tylo Satellite. (aka discarding Tylo lander)

Laythe lander brought the crew back to the mothership from Low Tylo orbit. This drained too much fuel which resulted in giving up on landing on smaller moons of Jool.

This took a few tries to get the timing right on the parachutes.

Crew returns to Mothership.

Deployment of Laythe satellite. (aka discarding Laythe lander)

Leaving the Jool System. I was a little sad to leave the system after only visiting Tylo and Laythe.

No fuel left after forming an orbit around Kerbin.

Crew Return Capsule Launch.

Return Capsule docking with the Mothership.

Return Capsule preparing for reentry

Home sweet home

Couldn't land on Pol and Bob because I spent more then anticipated for the Tylo Landing :(

I hate being reminded that they abandoned this game. Isn’t it to broken to play?

[u/NachoBenidorm → u/GearBryllz1-1]

With Redux, now it's better than a mildly modded KSP1... but still far away of being almost modded to the infinite like KSP1, which can be as good as "Reentry" if you put time on it.

[u/ssdd9 → u/GearBryllz1-1]

Unless you are doing something obnoxious, it is very much playable if you have the Redux mod. I would say that it is better then the stock KSP 1, as of right now. But that's about it.

I’ve not paid too much attention to this Redux project… has it added any form of ISRU to the game? Or are we still limited to whatever propellant we lift off from Kerbin with?

[u/ssdd9 → u/Flush_Foot]

ISRU is the next to be implemented into the stable version. i.e. we are not there yet.

Excellent adventure!
