The parachutes has a slight malfunction when the game didn’t actually register that I wasn’t several thousand meters from the surface but that I was actually ~500 from the surface. Landed on Olympus Mons (?) I’m guessing.
Yep, that is Olympus Mons, and I don't really recommend a parachute landing there. Even if you manage to open the parachutes, the drag is so low that they make almost no difference.

I sent another rover to Mars. Moved my station to around the moon and it’s had 4 crews dock there. 3 strait from Earth and 1 that landed on the moon previously. I am currently working on another station that is planned to stay around Earth.

First successful mission to Jupiter using my Atlas V 521 looking rocket. Went by Ganymede (forgot to actually take a picture of that ) and ended in orbit around Callisto (picture). Also added solar panels to my newer station. Station has taken 21 launches to get to this point so far.

I almost forgot about this. Been getting caught up in things I have to do. Any recommendations on what I should add to the newer station? Maybe if I turn the center chunk (fuel tanks) to where the outer sides connect to the solar panel chunk I could add some more stuff to the side without making a giant blob?

First attempt at a reusable rocket. Tested the first stage which actually worked.

Second design I’m working on. Hopefully after working on this one a bit more I can actually carry a larger payload than the first design.

This is pretty damn cool! I gotta feeling over time you'll make your mark here with these kind of things.
I really gotta start playing the game again, lol.
