Have you tried out Mac's new mod yet? It would probably fit well with the missions your doing as your already using Saturn V parts.

Decided to launch the last few modules up at once before I send the crew and landing craft.

Time to send up a Lander and a Crew module and then we are of to mars and beyond!

It seems the engine was to slow, so we have replaced it. This engine is temporary till I can find a more suitable one that will last longer and is faster.

Use NTRs, higher thrust but not constantly detonating nuclear bombs

That landing took 6 attempts, I will redesign the heatshield for the lander.
But the IPTV Works, there are flaws that will be corrected but for now it works.

May I know how did you manage to land on a relatively flat area? Did you aim from orbit or relied more on the landing craft? Thanks!

When I do my landings I look for a flat area on the map then I hover around for a bit untill I find a flat area.

That's over 183000 kg/m³. We're talking solar core densities AT LEAST. That thing should be undergoing nuclear fusion right now. Seriously though, why is it so heavy?

Launched them all at once because I couldn't be arsed doing lots of launches, eventually every celestial body should have these orbiting them, even the small moons/asteroids.

Why so many? 3 at a 3 radii orbit 120 deg apart should provide full coverage. The main issue is the orbits need to be exactly the same, a bit tricky for captured asteroid.

Because why not? For the asteroids/moons I'll shorten the number down alot tho.
