Hi there forum! It's been about a week since finishing the previous team challenge and I figured it would be a good time to knock the next one out.
Videos coming soon!! I'll have to post them in segments as replies to this post. BP links for all below.
1. VOYAGER MISSION
First up was the Voyager mission. It was the newest for me because I had never attempted escaping the solar system before. I was surprised that it could be done with such a limited rocket mass.

2. MARS RETURN MISSION
Next was the Mars return. This turned out to be the hardest, but only because I wanted to give my astronauts a habitation module for the long months of space travel. Once the design and testing phase was over, I completed the run in the attached video. The craft uses bp-edited fairings and decorative elements, but nothing that would add an unfair advantage (no modified engines or otherwise).

3. STATION ASSEMBLY MISSION
Then at last came the station, which is something that I am very familiar with. The entire process went smooth and I quite like the end product. Again, the craft uses bp-edited decorative elements, but nothing functionally advantageous.
+Also, I took the station to an orbit around the moon and tested the escape system from there. It worked!! It was able to return to earth with just enough fuel to aerobrake and enter the atmosphere for a safe return.
(Let me know if you would like that vid posted too)
