Tin Can Tuna

This spacecraft is named after a tuna sandwich. It has a real name, but no one remembers it. Identity theft is not a joke, Jeb.

This Craft is a part of the Tin Can Program Career Mode Guide

Action Groups List:

• 3 - Service bays toggle
  
• 7 - Payload fairing jettison
  
• 8 - Science
  
• 9 - Engine toggle (Service Module)
  
• 0 - Engine toggle (Lander Module)

Flight Checklist:

• Launch
  • Assign a single pilot to the Command Pod
    
  • Vertical lift through SRB burn and after jettison
    
  • At 20km, pitchover to 45° until AP reaches 60km
    
  • Hold 15° inclination until AP reaches 80km
    
  • Maintain horizontal inclination until lower stage flameout
    
  • Reduce upper stage throttle to just above zero
    
  • Return to full throttle at 10 seconds before AP
    
  • Cut throttle when PE exceeds 70km
• Orbit
  • Set up maneuver node for low Mün flyby — 10-20km
    
  • Execute maneuver burn — be sure Münar PE is 10-20km
    
  • Set up maneuver at Mün PE for orbit
    
  • Set for low orbit with 10-20km AP and PE
    
  • Practice docking before second maneuver burn
    
  • After docking, press 0 to shutdown orbiter engine
    
  • Transfer pilot to Lander and set ‘control from here’
    
  • Proceed with second maneuver (for Mün orbit)
• Landing
  • When in orbit, press 4 to separate docking rings
    
  • Enable retrograde hold in surface mode
    
  • Quicksave, then use trial and error to find a good landing site
    
  • Land on the daylight portion of the Mün
    
  • To land, retroburn until velocity is close to zero
    
  • Activate landing legs after upper stage jettison
    
  • Cut throttle as close to zero velocity as possible
    
  • Descend until below 3km or faster than 100m/s
    
  • Jettison upper stage at 3km even if fuel remains
    
  • Burn continuously to manage velocity
    
  • By 1km, keep velocity below 50m/s
    
  • Make ground contact at 5m/s or below
    
  • Cut throttle instantly on ground contact
    
  • Collect Science
    
  • Press 8 once landed for instrument science
    
  • Get EVA Report and surface sample
    
  • Plant a flag before returning to the craft
• Rendezvous
  • Find correct launch direction before return to orbit — same direction as orbiter
    
  • Hit full throttle and steer to horizon immediately when clear of terrain
    
  • Burn on horizon until AP reaches 100km
    
  • Set up radial maneuver where the two orbits intersect
    
  • Move your PE to touch the other orbit
    
  • Correct inclination at ascending/descending node
    
  • Once back at PE, burn to create close encounter
    
  • Get close encounter markers as close as possible
    
  • Before close encounter, activate retrograde hold in target mode
    
  • Initiate retroburn within 10 seconds of close encounter
    
  • Trim throttle and reduce target velocity to zero
    
  • To get closer, burn toward target navpoint then retroburn again
    
  • Stop within 100m for easy docking
    
  • Switch to orbiter, target lander, and set ‘control from here’ on docking ring
    
  • Press 6 to wake up autopilot, then align with target navpoint
    
  • Return to Lander, realign to target navpoint, and move in for docking
• Return
  • After docking, press 9 and 0 to use orbiter engine only
    
  • Transfer pilot to Command Pod and set ‘control from here’
    
  • Use maneuver node to set up Kerbin return PE at 30km
    
  • After maneuver burn, refuel Orbiter from lander tanks and quicksave
    
  • Engage retrograde hold in surface mode when near Kerbin
    
  • At 60km, hit full throttle — jettison orbiter stage immediately when empty
    
  • Activate parachutes at 2km
    
  • Disengage retrograde hold when ‘chutes inflate
    
  • Activate landing legs if descending over land
