Munar Max.

You've seen the Minmus might, you've gasped in awe at the S.T.U.B.B.L.E. space telescope but have you have not lived until you have seen kerbal-kind's very own munar orbiter: Munar Max.

Long have the Kerbals stared at the night sky and, after there attempts to yell at the Mun to get out of the way of their view of the stars had failed, they decide to take the fight to the Mun.

Whilst there, they decided it would be a good opportunity to see what science this annoying neighbour of Kerbin can procure and this is the ship that will get us there:

Look at it, all smug and big in its boots

It is comprised of two sections. The first is a large orbiter with fuel, a lab and a telescope. This was relatively problem free although we did end sending a probe core to dock with it in order to control its SAS. The second section was a lander. Based on the Minmus Might 3, it has all the science experiments available and an extra radial fuel tank. This didn't go so well, after our first attempt to redock with the orbiter, we found that we had the wrong rcs thrusters and therefore could not dock. We ended up sending the lander back to kerbin and took a replacement back with the necessary adjustments.

However this replacement also came with its own problem.... Jebediah Kerman. Yes, for some reason Jeb used is position in the space centre to send himself instead of the new pilot to the mun. We ended up having to send a space ferry to switch Jeb with the actual mission commander. This did however come with one advantage: instead of having to transmit the science home, Jeb could just take it to the centre himself, hence getting the maximum science possible. Maybe that was his plan all along....

view from the munar ferry, are you happy now Jeb?

The Munar max. station shall stay and aid with future missions but for now they shall sit and wait for now we can go... extraplanetary!
