After the intense excitement when the first kerbal went into extrasolar space, Kerbals have begun ignoring space. Public relations has been pressing KSC to do a Flashy mission to keep Kerbals interested, and although it got the scientists hearts racing, a soil examination survey of Moho did not satisfy this requirement. Apparently the general public only cares about Kerbals in space, not probes, and thus the Jool program was born. its ultimate goal is to land a exploration team of kerbals on all the moons of Jool.
