I assembled this in orbit from two parts so that I could throw out the tanks during the flight. I also launched the landing module into low satellite orbit using a tug to save fuel

Not very optimized but still impressive. Good job!

What would you optimize here?
Well, the engines first: using Titan engines in space is a surprising choice, they are the least efficient. Then it's certainly possible to do it with less fuel, especially if you use an efficient flight plan (using gravity assists in particular).
I remember I could do it in a single launch, you can check the mission here.

To be honest, I was even surprised that it was able to fly around all the satellites. I didn't count on this. I wanted the corbal to have a living compartment and be larger. And don't wait until the next launch window to return. The stage with the titans was simply needed to enter orbit and then be pushed. Otherwise, more engines would have to be added. But I still don’t always see how to use gravity; it’s not here. My planning looks abstract)

I see. Note that it wasn't a critic, we all have to start somewhere. My first Jupiter missions were also very big to be honest, the optimization process came later.

Nothing, I'm interested in criticism and how it can be done better. Thank you for your comments
