No time warp.

[Lt. Snakestrike]

No, but there isn't a time restriction or anything.

He's timing for the impressiveness factor of how long it'd take, not to be the quickest or anything like that.

Ok. Thanks for the info

Exactly!

Moon- A week or more (roundtrip)
Mars- 49 months (roundtrip)
Oof lol people who said challenge accepted

Jesus, how did you calculate this? I never thought it would be that extreme.

 

[Altaïr]

Jesus, how did you calculate this? I never thought it would be that extreme.

I'm a bit surprised myself, I've calculated the duration for a Hohmann transfer. For the Moon I get 8 hours, and for Mars 27 days. Only to go there, double that if you want to come back. Note that it's possible to speed up significantly the transfer by spending more delta-V.
But still, it's very long, especially Mars.

So... 27 days X2 = 49 months...?

No of course, I never talked about 49 months. But it's still a lot...

The times Spacey1100 gave are not even real life figures, but anyone can make a mistake.

It depends on the rocket

Oops, I thought you were the other guy. Sorry. :/

Ah OK, no problem

 

[SPQRALAN]

Jesus, how did you calculate this?

Kepler's third law(too lazy to do the actual math)

t=2\pi\cdot\sqrt{\frac{a^{3}}{GM}}

Whoever owns this site PLEASE support LaTeX it will make displaying equations way easier and neater.

Will see how the Emperor responds. Also, see if the system supports it.

Emperor?

The language is based on Javascript, you need to import it from a library though. The only people that can't use it is the foolish browsers(or users) that disable JS.

I refer to the Emperor as the Emperor in and out of RP. A bit of respect. Same as the good Lieutenant, the Sentinel (or Brigadier), Sanctor Batten, Sky Captain, Admiral, the B's, General Jezron, Bombardier, and Wing Commander.

There's a time and place for everything. Like a brief explanation of why I do certain things brought up in the actual conversation. But, now BOT.

I'm probably being annoying now I'll shut up.

Go to the moon without any time warp. No cheats, but go kerbal on boosters if you so desire. There are no restrictions in terms of how your rocket is built.
Hardcore mode: come back from the moon.
Legendary mode: To mars and back without time warp.
(If you, for some reason, want to do the mars mission, you may time warp to your burn window.)
Omnipotent mode: come back from mars

I've finally accomplished this challenge in legendary mode: to Mars and back without time-warp!!!

It took really long, it needed practically 6 months in the end. I started on 5 november 2019, with an aggressive injection burn toward Mars to save time:


The ship reached mars on 28 november (during night, I had to put an alarm-clock at 3 am to handle the insertion):


Then the longest part consisted in waiting for the launch window for the return part. It finally came after 3 months, on 24 february:


Finally, my ship reached Earth today after one more month without time-warp:


And finally, here is my ship before landing:

Mission accomplished!

Is that blueprint edited? I don't think you'd be able to launch that with drag on.

AND IT'S GOT BLACK FINS! FAKE SATURN V CONFIRMED!
