Bob, Shepely, and Luly have all been selected from the volunteers to try long term cryogenic suspension in space! The Crew Cryogenic Research Lab, more commonly known as the CryoLab. CryoLab will hopefully pave the way toward much longer range missions for Kerbals, as the only life support and food stuffs needed by the crew will be that needed at the endpoint, not for the entire voyage!
Mirphe blasts off in the Resolute, and the crew holds on tight!
“Don’t worry back there… I’ve done this lots of times!”
-Mirphe
Mirphe pilots Resolute to the planned orbit of 140km.
The Cargo Bay Doors open, and Luly, Shepely, and Bob climb into the Cronic Freezing Chamber!
“CryoLab is away!”
-Mirphe
“Well… here it goes! See you all in a few minutes!”
-Bob
Minutes to the science team perhaps, but 100 days to everyone back on Kerbin! The solar arrays extend, and Bob, Shepely, and Luly are frozen!
“Switching Resolute to Landing Configuration!”
-Mirphe
Resolute rockets through the clouds toward the space center!
“Ok… I’m in the pipe – five by five!”
-Mirphe
Mirphe sets Resolute down for a perfect landing! Crews start working on refurbishing the Shuttle for its next launch!
