At the Cylero—>Droo transfer window, Hellas, along with the three crew, was sent back up to Ithaca.
Getting into orbit without auto-burn was certainly new, but I managed without needing to reload a quicksave. Here you can see I forgot to open the nose.
Hellas undocked after the crew was transferred, to be crashed into the surface due to the aforementioned navigational issues.
However, the parachutes slowed Hellas down enough that the small amount of fuel remaining was enough to make a soft touchdown in probably the most visually stunning locations on Cylero. It will stay there as a monument to Expedition I and as a rough landing target for a future surface base.

Hehe yep
Anyway, the crew of 4 made their way home...
The Jupiter analogue, Tydos, photobombed this next photo. (The slightly yellow spot in the upper right)
Eventually Droo could be spotted, after a 60 or so day trip through the wide dark.
The braking burns began..
I had left the LOD distance up to max so that I could get some nice shots of terrain
Eventually, the craft that brought the crew of Expedition I arrived to complete their nearly year-long trip.
And that concludes the adventures of Billy Phillips, Renya Leonard, Leyla Hinton, and Makai Hanson.

Oo
I’ve seen Pedro’s work in ESS, so I bet. (Make sure to tell the team to give Cylero 3 moons.)
Even if I’ll have to start a new save to get all of the cool stuff, I have most of the hardware in place for future missions already.
(Notably that the carrying capacity for a drop-off cargo mission using the CCC tank is 52 tons.)
The thing is, you can grind the visuals to an absolute halt. It’ll look like ass but I’d reckon you have a small screen it won’t matter. If all you want is 3d space, it’ll certainly do.

The design for the CDAV Refuel Tanker, which should have enough Δv to haul 49.6 tons of Methalox, enough fuel for 6 CDAV cycles.
This will probably be all of the fuel that will be needed for the lifespan of the next CDAV, named “Retkikunta,” (Expedition II will start a Finnish naming theme.) because I will soon need a more economical way to bring much larger crews to the future surface base.
