Description

There’s science in them thar hills! Light the fires in this lander carrier, and go get it! Circularize this carrier at 601 kilometers for your Eve transfer burn. Upon entering Eve’s sphere of influence, point your carrier at Eve’s pole, set your periapsis for 1.48 million meters, and deploy your survey scanner. It has sufficient delta v to circularize at periapsis. Then drop your carrier into any orbit you want, polar if you wish. The landers can circularize themselves to 100 kilometers before they start their descent. Aim for the small biomes first, if you miss you can try again with another lander. The lander’s engine may overheat and explode in Eve’s atmosphere. The lander will survive, and you don’t need the engine in the atmosphere anyway. Wait to drop your heat shield until the parachutes have fully deployed. That shield turns into a disc of Tron when at high speed. The landers come with two mystery goos and materials bays. Collect science in the atmosphere above your biome, and again when you touch down. The lander has a big battery to send multiple science transmissions back to Kerbal Space Center. A stock rocket called Eve Lander Carrier RTL (Stock). Built with 532 of the finest parts, its root part is stationHub.

Built in the VAB in KSP version 1.2.2.
