Introduction
After the Kerbal Space Station exploration campaign, Kerbals look to the skies and wonder what lies under a pale, red dot they've always stared at (Duna). After some additional time dreaming, Kerbican folks decided to build a pair of rovers that could rove the surface of Duna for more historic, never-seen-before info. This campaign is based on the real Exploration Rover program conducted by the American agency NASA.
Specifications
Length: 1-1.5 hours
Difficulty: 6/10 (Proficient)
Skills needed:
- Comfort with maneuver nodes
- Should be able to land with skill, as Duna's atmosphere is thinner than that of Kerbin's.
Missions
Kathfinder and Kojourner
First DERs of the program.
- Target: Successfully land Kathfinder on Duna, then spawn the Kojourner rover.
- Rocket must contain enough fuel for Low Kerbin Orbit (suggested orbit: 80 x 80 meters), the interplanetary transfer and aerocapture/propulsive deceleration.
- It must be able to reach a distance of 100 meters away from the lander (for realism).
