Took her for a joyride since I posted......here ya go.
-seconds after liftoff..such unamused faces on my kerbs....I don't know what they're worried about.....not exactly pushing g's yet. Jeb(RIP) was never such a pussy.
solid booster sep
-deploying the payload (Mun in the background, this sat is headed out that way as a relay for my unmanned landers should I want to hit the darkside)
-and now we burn for reinsertion as we head into the sunrise upside down...and backwards
...and finally we flip her over for aerobraking
No pics of the landing.....no time for an EVA in that series...was trying to get pics up with a quickness. Heard the unmistakable sound of lithobraking under the AF tab as I was posting..lol. All screenies taken at the lowest possible video settings. Hope you all enjoyed the trip.
