Description

Share this:

Basically, when the Americans wanted to be secretive against everyone, they designed a way to recover Corona Imaging satellites before they landed, and this was to grab them with a plane on their final decent by their parachute…

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corona_(satellite)

in KSP however parachutes only exist as visual elements and flying a plane into anything never ends well, so how about VTOL?

so yeah I made a challenge that is basically

1.dock to the satellite on its chutes before it falls to the ground("and gets taken by the enemy")

2.land on VAB

simples 😀

Notes-

*this was a real idea, check out Corona Satellite - http://en.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Corona_(satellite)

*the instructions are in the CRAFTS DESCRIPTION, LOOK THERE…

*the satellite and pick-up craft start as one craft because you cant switch vehicles in atmosphere

*this challenge is really hard, it might be impossible, I never beat it…

*the Whoever at the CIA/NASA came up with the idea first so I cant be stealing credit from anyone here…

***FEEL FREE TO CREATE YOUR OWN VERSION OF THE SAME CONCEPT TO MAKE IT EASIER AND LOOK NICE.
