[AstronautAdam]

Hello, I completed Mars mission but that was pretty hard. Photos

Bp down

Launchpad

Lift-off!

Orbit

Mars aquired

Orbited before landing because lander and command module

Lander on chutes

Touch-down

Take off

Orbited after landing, bit too long docking

Uhhh coupled!

Orbit before return

Earth aquired

Prepare for braking

No photos from landing section because is complicated:
1. Reduce height of flyby to 4000m
2. Deattach booster
3. Slow down in atmosphere
4. During previous step rotate lander to opposite direction of flight
5. Decouple lander, deploy chutes on command module(lander have 1 pair and used it for Mars landing)
6. Extend landing legs and land safely

Safely landed command module

Mission achievements. So completed third challenge
