Description

Originally intended to compete with the Starkiller Base from the First Order empire in the recently discovered dimension in a timeline from a long, long time ago, the designer’s imagination exceeded his grasp. In the end a compromise was settled on with a cannon providing lift for the critical first few meters, launching a 2 stage interstellar ballistic missile (3 stage if counting the warhead which in this case is a kerbal who will make a 1 way trip out of the kerbol system). Whoever fires it better have pinpoint accuracy as they will have to manually aim at their exoplanet target. Instead of the intended planetary destruction, the mad scientist designer settled for Jeb going poof. Requires a straight heading since very little adjustments can be done in atmosphere. No stabilizing fins were fitted in order to fit the cannon barrel. A slight groove was cut into the side of the barrel to let rocket gases escape & prevent a catastrophic explosion.

A stock rocket called Interstellar Hybrid Cannon. Built with 29 of the finest parts, its root part is HeatShield2.

Built in the VAB in KSP version 1.10.1.

This missile doesn’t require fancy gravity assists, only careful aim and brute force to escape the Kerbol system.
