  • Today we will construct a large interplanetary ship, which contains 8 crew seats, a rover, an Eve Lander and a Gilly exploration vessel. Too much for one launch, we'll have to assemble it in orbit!

    Here's a challenge for you, Matt: make a ship which carries a kerbal for every moon and planet in the solar system. Your job is to use the ship to visit every single planet and moon and leave a flag on every single one of them and return to Kerbin after that.
    Good luck.

    having a bottom heat shield only is ok because all of the mass is concentrated at the bottom of the heat shield, so aerodynamics dictate that it is not likely to tumble and flip. You just have to make sure the heat shield is on the side with more mass. Thats why you dont need 2 on kerbin, and you dont need 2 on eve either.
