Approaching Kerbin, alarm bells go off on Discovery, waking up from Cryosleep, (the crew) is surprised to discover a series of interesting transmissions from Mission Control!
“Attention DSV Discovery – Spacedock has exploded!Ā Attempt no dockings! Everyone is evacuating now!”
-Recorded Message from Gene at the VAB
Mirphe, Seely, and Tamre are all a little shocked to say the least!
“We better listen to the rest of these recordings!”
-Mirphe
Mirphe, Seely, and Tamre are all a little shocked to say the least!
“Attention DSV Discovery – important follow up: We’re all ok but really do NOT approach Spacedock.”
-Recorded Message from Gene at the VAB
Mirphe frowns and plays the next message…
“Good News DSV Discovery! There is a new Spacedock!Ā Please contact Mission Control when you wake up!”
-Recorded Message from Gene at the VAB
“Let’s do our capture orbit, and figure out where to go from there!”
-Mirphe
Mirphe fires the nuclear engines and Discovery is captured into a 200k orbit of Kerbin!
“Welcome home Discovery! We have a bit of a surprise for you – a new Spacedock! Proceed to the following orbital coordinates!”
-Gene, at Mission Control
The new Spacedock, located at a lower orbit has been fully assembled, with the Lithium Fuel Depot docked and ready to refuel the Kerbal States fleet of exploration ships!
“We are coasting in reverse until we are lined up with the DSV Terminal… that’s a big station!”
-Mirphe
Discovery continues moving, relative to the station, backwards until it is lined up with the docking port. The craft is brought to station-keeping (no movement, relative to the station) before Mirphe pilots the craft into docking!
“I’ll get all the science data loaded up for a return to Kerbin!”
-Tamre
“Mirphe, looks like a great alignment with the docking port. We are good to dock!”
-Seely
Discovery moves slowly forward until the docking ports engage!
“Discovery shows a good connection!”
-Mirphe
“Confirmed Discovery! Welcome to Spacedock!”
-Sean

This is really cool! How did you get the idea to start blogging KSP?

Thanks! Well, I started initially with just a text document that kept track of stuff, because I didn’t play each mission to its end, and then do a new mission, I liked running it like a “real” space program, where lots of stuff was happening all at once. I thought about a wiki, but ended up doing a blog just because the creation was easier! š

I think it’s really cool how you give the Kerbals personalities. Cheers!

Thanks! When I’m grabbing screenshots I notice certain expressions (like the “oh wow!” expression, or the “utter terror” expression) and go from there! š
