Here is an easy one to change with.

Here are the payload, and the full rocket:

The flight itself:

It's already over. That one is boring...

...

Nevermind, I'll also do it in IRIS! Without the build grid limitation of course because it's technically impossible, but at least so that I get some pleasure from that challenge!

Aah, I feel better now, it' a pleasure to fly that beast :p

Great launcher as usual. It's funny how the upper stage DWARFS the payload.o_O
IRIS will humble me when I try it, I just know it.

I wonder what a version of that launcher designed for engine heat would look like.o_O


Oh, and the actual Atlas submission is nice, well done.:p

Edit: nice, your 4444th post!

Haha, that launcher was originally a kiloton launcher for IRIS, so 600 tons is a piece of cake for that one. Actually it can even send that payload twice:

Probably a cathedral or something like that. 36 Titan and 56 Frontier engines lined up would make it wider than high. That would be horrible to see :p
