This is an orbiter designed to scan Luna for suitable landing spots for future missions and for water ice.
Action Groups
Action group 1 + Slider one -100% = Surface scanners.
Action Group 2 = Second stage engine.
Action Group 9 = Solar panels.
Action group 10 = Reaction control thrusters.
Optimal flight out to luna.
When launching, set the throttle to 60% and after SRB sep, set throttle to 100% while performing the rest of the gravity turn. Once orbit is achieved, the choice is yours on how to fly it.
I also realized that after achieving a slightly eccentric orbit around Luna, I encountered a Solar eclipse.

    I tried to recreate my version of the Sepratron separation motors for the solid rocket boosters. The System is still the ESS Eternal Winter system, so Thanks to @JastroOne1.
