Still after this all this time, one of my favorite let alone space program.

And I like the animation but I think it would teach better if u did the gameplay. I understood just confused on the pics lol

Thank you kind sir! May your travels be far and fun fellow kerbonauts!

dude, why did you stop making videos ? you are an absolute awesome youtuber. i learnt so much from your moho series. ibreally really liked it! !!

Why have you stopped making videos?

Now, when you say you save 2-3k dV not doing an inclination change, but isn't skipping an inclination change going to make it more costly to capture? Or is it not that much?

...Instead of those silly nuclear powered rockets, why not use just a small/light final stage with ion propulsion? Use the most efficient combination of large ion engines and xenon tanks and Kerbol will take care of the rest. When that close to Kerbol, solar panels provide very high amounts of electrical power per second, which allows for prolonged ion engine burns. Perhaps it will take longer for you to get captured by Moho's gravity , but it's the most efficient option by far...you can even go back to Kerbin after you've collected all the science in Moho...

thanks :)

nice video

just subscribed wanna see more cool expeditions from you!

:) I Love This

...14000 m/s DV to go to Moho? Wat. The Olex-calculator suggested 1700 to get to Moho, and 3200 to get back. That's 4900 m/s, not including braking maneuvers. I designed a ship with an attached lander which has about 6000 m/s DV, so I figured 1100 m/s DV would be enough for braking at Moho (which might be too little). Keep in mind that I won't bring the lander home, which weighs about 8 tons. This guide says I need 14000 m/s DV? Either Olex or this guide is wrong..

Thank you for this. Might need to do some more research.

so i wasn't doing anything wrong when i saw how much delta v it took to stop?

Oh so thats why I stranded my Kerbal on Moho!! lol

I think adding ksp videos of your built ship that does this mission, attached links to screenshots of your ships, and/or links to them themselves would be a great addition.

You killed jeb omg

In 0.22 they fixed the mainsail engines overheating on the orange fuel tanks.

Hi Sarah! Could you make your husband continue the reveelootion series please!

Thanks! I'm actually a fan of the asparagus staging, if you'll check out my other videos. However, I find it easier to get stability with the smaller fuel tanks, when I'm using stackable stages. Once I get the longer tanks, you'll probably see a lot more of that staging style.

Nice vidéo "Adam" and your wife! (I forgot your name, sorry..) And..you would be much more efficient if you would use the "asparagus" technology.. (I hope you understood what i meant cause i'm not an english native speaker ^^)

Workin' on it. Mods are working now.

More revElOOTion!!!!!

You deserve more than 9 subs :)

also don't edit any of the video!!

i like live commentary and all the rambling!! please dont use post commentary to record!

Thanks for the tip. I actually had them down to 40%, but I used Fraps's in-video recorder this time. Won't do that again.

turn your in game sounds down man.

Spoilers.

Any clues about the destination?

Great job! Workin' on the new one right now.

Waiting for your next series. Coincidentaly yesterday I succeeded, at last, at my own Moho mission! Single-Kerbal, no rovers, no doo-dads - but thats what I tried to do - an economical way to a planet. Still turned out to be 1.5 times more expensive and massive than the Eeloo mission.

Of course! Neil DeGrasse Tyson. Yeah I like him too. Although, I'm still a wee bit pissed about Pluto...

I figured I'd stump some people on that. Clue : Astrophysicist.

pardon my ignorance, but what exactly is ndt? Tried to google - it gives me "non-destructive testing", which, i believe, is not the case, considering the fate of your unmanned rovers. nice vid btw. as always...

absolutely looking forward to it!

Great idea. I am planning on doing a tour-de-system, with a little bit of a narrative twist... I'll think about doing these to explain what my plan is. Then at the end, we can look and see how the plan failed completely :) .

Great tutorial! And i absolutely liked the animation. I think you should precede flight videos to other planets with similar tutes in the future.

wow, I didn't expect such a reply(ies). Thanx heaps. I'm just amazed at the low view count. I think you should do a couple of tutorials, covering the basics. Since I remember me youtubing hard for "kerbal tutorial orbit" when I started this thing. Thanx heaps, mate, and best of luck!

An easier way to do it would just be to send a very small lander to Moho, with only one Kerbal. But, I wanted to send 3, so they didn't get lonely.

A ship with 9 orange tanks (plus it's payload), as a transfer vessel, would not only be hard to get into orbit, but would have an unreasonably low Thrust-To-Weight Ratio. It's easier to have one 5-tank vessel for transfer and return, and a separate 3-tank vessel for lander transfer. This way, we can have a lander that has the equivalent weight of 2 full orange tanks (because it doesn't have to come back).

I'll talk about this in Episode 7, when I recap. The simple answer is weight. It takes roughly 14000 DV to get to Moho and back. That means you have to carry 7000 DV of fuel, just to return from Moho. Since weight goes up with fuel amount, DV falls off on a logarithmic scale. Simplified : It takes roughly 3 Orange Tanks of fuel to get 2 Orange tanks of fuel into Moho Orbit (needed for Kerbin return), but it would take something like 9 orange tanks of fuel to get 4 into moho orbit.

Webber, what is the idea behind using a separate lander for planets like Moho? I mean if there is atmo present - that's quite understandable. But here? Cause I'm planning a mission to Moho myself and failing miserably. Eeloo was so much easier. ty in advance.

Thank you!

keep up the good job!
