Team Hawk Instructions!

A Jovian moon is one of Jupiter's moons, Jovian Jupiter. You have to land on any of Jupiter's moons and return back to earth with no damages, unless they are empty fuel tanks or stages. You are allowed to construct your rocket on the launchpad or in orbit.

dude....... construct it, in orbit?! You mean in the building grid eh?

You can either make your rocket normally, just standard launching a rocket directly after building it, have it need to be assembled on the launchpad someway, or assemble it in orbit. I mean after launching the rocket out of the building grid

 

[Altaïr]

What's a Jovian moon? And could you give me and could you explain what the mission EXACTLY is?

Remember that you have to start with team Titan if you want to attempt the ranked missions anyway. As you are new, let me suggest you to read the FAQ to get an overview about how this forum works.

Sounds good, thanks .

That is..
My lawyer has gave me an advice to not to continue any further.
Seriously though.. how can you construct.. in ORBIT?

You don't litterally construct in orbit, but you can ASSEMBLE ships in orbit. "Assemble" means that you design your build in separate modules, you send them to orbit one after another, and then you make them encounter and finally you make them join using docking ports.
Here is a visual explanation:

bro hasnt seen a docking port

I ve done it this way. It can spare some time which in other cases you will spent with after build assembly but your design must be way more effective

Changed instances of Achievements to Mission Log, in keeping with game terminology.

With a shuttle, can I use half fairings?
And, can I bp edit heatshields to make them thinner?

probably since it’s cosmetical

“
Bp editing/part clipping is fine, EXCEPT on the 700 tons to orbit challenge, where it is completely disallowed.
Engine stretching and "no engine heat" is ONLY allowed on the replica challenge, but not for the rest of the missions. And if you do stretch some engines, you must add the necessary ballast to compensate the advantage, and if you disable engine heat, it must be necessary (replicate engine clusters, minimum thrust, etc).

Yes and yes.

With Deja Vu can I use a space station to refuel my rocket on orbit?

If the rockets that launched the space station are also fully reusable then yes. You would need to provide proof of it.

Is 3 ion engines a "reasonable quantity"?

Yes, it's fine.

I'm doing the Fly me to the moon challenge, and is it OL if I put an Ion engine on my payload? Here is a picture for reference:

You shouldn't but it shouldn't be a big deal.

If it's just the payload honestly we don't care, since you won't benefit from the efficiency of the ion engine for the challenge itself.

Is there anything against doing copycat in 1.4?
