Jeb on Duna
After Jeb's rescue from deep space, the trip to Duna was almost
a bit too easy.
Here's Jeb taking off in a Duna-craft created out of a hastily
modified rescue craft (it's less nuclear
and has a rover attached).
Let's throw together a
Porkchop Chart.
Hmmm the next launch window is almost 2 years away. Guess we should
have checked that *before* launch. Well, Jeb is used to living
in cramped spaces.
And what do you know, the launch window wasn't that bad, although
by eyeballing it we used a lot more ΔV than the theoretical minimum.
Oops we probably should have tied the rover on a bit tighter.
I guess Jeb won't be driving anywhere fun.
There it is, Duna and Ike!
Ike and Kerbol rising at the same time:
Aerobraking!
Coming in for a landing, careful to not land on the ice cap.
We landed! Sort of!
