KSP: Far Future Mission to Neptune | RSS / RO

Happy Winter!  I hope y'all are having a great holiday season!  I decided to quickly make a video for Christmas/winter holidays about a week ago, and here we are!  For this mission, I decided to involve far more moon exploration and just destination exploration in general, as looking back on Far Future Uranus, it was quite lacking in that aspect.  I also decided to avoid using the SSPxR centrifuges, as I didn't want to end up reusing the same centrifuge I used in Far Future Uranus.  This actually worked out really well, as in my opinion the centrifuge I built looks better and is much more realistically-sized.

As for Triton, it was really fun driving around with the rover and exploring the terrain.  Parallax 2.0 was awesome here - the scatters I used ended up working out excellently, and brought much of the terrain to life.  Visiting the other moons was also fun - landing on extremely low-gravity objects like Galatea and Larissa was something I didn't realize I missed, even when the SOI physics are a little buggy.

The base design was inspired by ‪@yukon09‬, go check him out!
Galatea, Larissa, and Proteus are from ‪@Katniss218‬'s public Github repository.

Made in Kerbal Space Program 1.12.4

Mods (non-exhaustive list):
Real Solar System
Realism Overhaul (makes the game more realistic and difficult)
PRVE (RSS visuals)
TUFX (postprocessing, Ballisticfox's configs)
Parallax 2.0 (custom made-configs, no I'm not releasing them)
Far Future Technologies (fusion engine and related parts)
Near Future Technologies
Stockalike Station Parts Expansion Redux (general habitation)
Planetside Exploration Technologies (many base parts)
Procedural Parts
Kerbal Reusability Expansion (landing legs for launch vehicle)
Kipard's Skylon
Persistent Thrust (time warp with engines on)
Persistent Thrust Navigator (navigation for long-duration burns)
Booster Guidance (Booster landing and landing in general)
Camera Tools (advanced camera movement)

I created and modified many configs and mods for this mission.  Do not expect your own install to behave the same way.
