Introduction

The goal of this campaign is to establish a manned outpost on Duna, the Martian analogue in KSP. Players will develop skills in interplanetary travel, orbital mechanics, and surface operations.

Specifications

Length: 10 - 15 hours [proficient vs. learning through the campaigns] Difficulty: 8/10 (Advanced) Skills needed:

    • Intermediate / Advanced orbital maneuvers
    • Designing and executing interplanetary transfers
    • Advanced rover deployment and surface operations

For version: KSP 1.12 or later (tested on 1.12 - 1.13)

Missions

Duna Outpost Establishment

Basic description of the Duna Outpost Establishment mission.

Design requirements or mission considerations (e.g., "Establish a sustainable outpost on Duna, capable of supporting 4 Kerbals for at least 100 days").

Rocket must contain: Medium-sized crew module (command pod), sufficient life support for 100 days.

Mission requirements: 1. Launch a spacecraft with sufficient delta-v for an interplanetary transfer to Duna. 2. Achieve orbit around Duna with a periapsis of at least 20 km. 3. Deploy a lander containing a rover capable of exploring the Duna surface. 4. Ensure the outpost includes adequate power generation and life support for 4 Kerbals. 5. Establish a communication relay to maintain contact with Kerbin.

Post-mission requirements: - Conduct regular supply missions to maintain the outpost's functionality. - Plan for future missions to expand the outpost's capabilities.

(Tip: Utilize aerobraking around Duna to save fuel during descent.)

Next mission: Return from Duna.
