BREAKING NEWS! LENMARK LAUNCHES OPERATION RAGNAROK. STEREOTYPICAL VILLAIN TO BE FIRST VIKING ON MÜN!
Back from his polar adventures,
Stereotypical Villain returns to the lauchpad at VSP HQ in Lenmark. He refuses to ascend the Löngboat II until it is rechristened the "Prisoner of Ice". VSP sees no reason not to humor him.
The climb towards destiny. Viking Space Program acknowledges their Kerman peers. Many of the engineering details were developed in cooperation with contractors leased from Focke-Wulf.
"Macht Den Weltraum Frei!"
Launching the Löngboat in 5... 4... 3... 2... 1...
ODIN! ODIIIIIIIIIIIIIN!!!!!!!!
The Löngboat rocket delivers the Prisoner of Ice into orbit with precision that would astonish engineers from the Koviet Union. Kerman scientists describe the ascent as "adequate".
Orbital Transfer to Mün is initiated
Goodbye Kerbin...
...Hello Mün!
The Löngboat burns its remaining fuel to retrograde the orbit, ensuring the Kommand Kapsule will land on the day side of Mün.
Viking Space Command, this is Stereotypical Villain. I have detached the Longboat and I am powereing up the Prisoner of Ice. ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL!
A slow burn of the engine is enough to control the vertical descent of the Kapsule. RCS is used to cancel out lateral drift and fine tune the descent speed.
THE PRISONER IS IN LOCKDOWN!
SV, this is VSP command. Do you have any message you wish to relay to the people of Kerbin?
TODAY... *static* ... I... *STATIC* ... BRING MULTI CULT... *static* RAPE TO THE MOON!
SV spends several minutes searching for Münmaidens to rape. They prove scarce however, and he is forced to settle for performing awesome low-gravity combat techniques and pillaging a bunch of Münrokks.
HERO OF THE VIKING NATIONS
His kill kruise complete, SV prepares to bring the Prisoner of Ice home
Once free of the surface, part of the the plentiful reserves of RCS fuel are expended to bring the Prisoner of Ice into a high parabolic arc above Mün
From apoapsis of this arc, it requires only a minor adjustment to slingshot the Prisoner of Ice back towards Kerbin
Once inside Kerbins sphere of influence, a retrograde burn is planned to return to Kerbins atmosphere for an aerobrake
Sunrise as SV returns to port
Stereotypical Villain tirelessly fine-tunes his descent using the last dregs of fuel in his tanks, RCS and even the solar panels to adjust drag to his liking.
Finally satisfied with his approach vector, he ejects all surplus weight and hovers his hand over the parachute button. See that purple marker near the coast? That's Viking Space Centre
To the Mün and back again with a drift of 12.5 kilometers.
Stereotypical Villain. The Kerbal. The Kerbalnaut. The Legend.
