Introduction
Over Kerbin, Kerbal-made stars could be seen gleaming from their orbits upon a treeless world. It didn't matter, because no one on Kerbin had ever seen a tree, so they weren't missed. GeoSat proved the point that there was absolutely no vegetation at all on the planet, except the microscopic green stuff that made the surface what it was. It was also discovered that there were not a whole lot of theme parks to visit, or really anything to do at all on the whole planet of Kerbin, except for which was happening at the Kerbal Space Center.
The Kerbican president announced that he wanted to see a Kerbal on the Mun ahead of the Kerbiets, and before the decade was out. The Kerbal Space Program set its sights on an eventual Mun landing and return, although most scientists doubted the success of such. To get there, much needed to be learned. Volunteers were called up, but most Kerbals were content to be spectators, and viewed the whole space program as a spectator sport. Jebediah Kerbin, a daredevil from Kernicopia, was the only volunteer...for a while. Though after showing off his new spacesuit with jetpack, his very intrigued brothers Bill and Bob would soon join him, and it became apparent to KSP scientists that the whole Jebediah Kerbin family had what it takes to get into space: a pennant for a good bribe, and a lack of education.
This campaign will have you doing you docking with a Kerbin based space station before the day is out. Ok, maybe weekend.
Specifications
- Length: 2 days
- Difficulty: Just pay attention
- Skills needed: Navball navigation, Orbital Mechanics 101
- For version: Every version (tested on 0.20.2)
Missions
Alexey Kerbinov, First Spacewalker
- Looks like the Kerbiets beat the Kerbicans again... this time it was the first spacewalk. Go out for an eva once in orbit. Bring him back alive.
- While in orbit, your Kerbal will have to go outside, and eventually let go of the spacecraft. And grab it again and get back inside.
- Jets optional.
- Return mandatory. You don't want to scare off any of the current volunteers waiting in line for the next missions.
Michael Kollins, First Jet Assisted EVA
- This Kerbican used the first jetpack in space...and returned successfully to his spacecraft.
- In orbit, leave your comfy spacecraft and float around the spacecraft. Must complete one circuit.
- Returning your Kerbals is required from now on for all missions.
Rendezvous
- Dock with another spaceship in orbit.
- Transfer crew with another spaceship in orbit.
Kylab I
- Launch a single module station into orbit, and dock a spaceship with it.
- Leave at least 1 Kerbal on board.
- Return at least 1 Kerbal to Kerbin.
- Launch a robotic ship to return your station Kerbal(s) back to Kerbin safely.
- Ship must dock with the station.
- Deorbit your station lest the Kerbiets come up later and mess up your room while you're away.
- No Kerbals may be harmed in the making of mission.
Finishing word
After the completion of the Kerbinai Program, Robert Kerbin retired to much fanfare, and settled down to write books about the early pioneers of Kerbal Spaceflight who he helped put into space. A new director, Gene Kerbin, arrived to take his place at the Kerbal Space Center.
After the Kerban family reunion which took place in orbit during the program, Gene ordered the Kerbonaught corps to take a well deserved vacation while the space program ramped up its final prepations for a Mun shot. While on vacation, Jebediah took the initiative in his home of Kernicopia to fund a new start up company: - cobbled together from a number of junkyard parts he had laying around from his daredevil days. Being an insider, her figured he'd be able to score a number of kontracts with the Kerbal Space Program. While he prepared his company, Gene Kerbin stepped up missions to send Probes and Rovers to the Mun.
