Frontier 2 is instructed to attempt to dip into the atmosphere of Sarnus! The probe will go down to an altitude of 576k, an altitude that some scientists fear might be fatal to the probe! 
Thankfully the probe didn’t enter deep enough to be burned to a crisp – and KSEA engineers find new insights about Sarnus – such as how the atmosphere is so incredibly light that if there were an ocean big enough, Sarnus would float! Next up for Frontier 2, a wider orbit will be reached, and an attempt to encounter Tekto! KSEA estimates this will exhaust the probe’s fuel.
Frontier 2 adjusts its orbit to encounter Tekto! Toe encounter will be in 11 days!
Finally, the craft fires its engines to circularize its orbit – extremely close to the rings of the distant, mysterious world!
Thankfully, the Frontier 2 Probe will soon perform a minor course correction in just 36 days. If calculations are correct, this will let the probe fly extremely close to Sarnus itself, and then have an encounter with Sarnus’s moon, Tekto. With any luck there will be enough fuel to allow the spacecraft to circularize around this mysterious Moon!
Development on the Frontier probes to Sarnus is finally complete! Construction begins on two of the probes: Frontier 1’s mission is to reach Sarnus as soon as possible – this will allow testing of long range communications equipment to ensure that future probes can even be contacted! Frontier 2 will take a more fuel efficient journey, with the gamble that the communications and power systems work at the extreme ranges the mission requires. Once KSEA knows the answers to these questions more advanced missions to Sarnus will be possible!
Each probe will carry on it a plaque that will attempt to explain where the Kerbals came from… hopefully some signs of the Ogres, the creatures believed to have sent that first probe that crashed on Kerbin so long ago, may see it!
