What are Yuri and Sally up to now?
Yuri and Sally are very adventurous, but sometimes they get a bit over motivated. This time they were supposed to splash down at the ocean, but they rushed the reentry too much and fell between the mountains, with the bad luck that they can't exit the capsule by themselves.
Our base is the closest to the landing site, it's just about 70km to the west and the craft is sending back some really bad telemetry. One of our engineers told us that the hypergolic tanks are losing integrity and the capsule will explode in 5 minutes, don't warp time much or you'll get there too late!
Design a craft to get there as fast as possible and get them out of the pod. Everything is allowed (tinker panel, XML edits, mods...), the only rule is to have fun. We've made this chip for you as a bonus, its use isn't mandatory but it's highly recommended, it has some vizzy code that will enhance the experience a lot. It doesn't have to be the primary part, you can just save it as a subassembly and snap it anywhere in your craft.
If you want to go one step further and you bring them back to base safely you'll save us a buck and probably get some extra stars on the SimpleRocketsChat Discord Server. For this, make sure you join the server and send a screenshot, a video, or a short story describing your mission to the channel called #rescue.
All messages in #rescue have an XP bonus, but if it gets to the server starboard you'll get even more XP. Don't abuse this channel though, as any message considered spam or unrelated will be severely penalized.
Enjoy the mission and bring Yuri and Sally back home so they can go on new adventures soon.

@SimpleRocketsChat how do you made the code of changing camera views?
@pedro16797
Can't wait for your next challenge :)
here's the story behind the 2 titles (movie titles in fact)
1- Space Cowboys is about modern time where an old abandoned/parked USSR satellite from the cold war carrying nukes is going nuts and will launch/fall into earth. a mission then is a must, in order to reprogram the satellite to go to the moon, the satellite has a proximity sensor, so there must be EVA (maybe grab a command chip with a flight program and attached to a downsized docking port so the astronaut can take that to the rouge satellite and attached it there)
@crowxe I'm waiting for 0.9.6 to be public on all platforms to work again on the challenges but I already have planned the 2nd episode. Do you have any source or short description for those ideas? I'll consider them for future episodes.
Can we have a challenge similar to "Space Cowboys" or "Armageddon" / "Deep impact"
@Airospace 就很离谱
I got you
@AeromanYett you should read the description
@pedro16797 I don't remember what time they explode, is this a timer?
My helicopter I use to rescue them but I rescue them and I run out of elictric and I crash but I use plane to rescue again but I rescue and land I land hard but the landing gear explode and I use rocket
@JAMESCorp if they're alive and healthy, it counts
@AeromanYett what was the global time when the craft exploded?
Craft explode when get closer to me
Dear players, can you support me? Thank you
Well, I did save them using my intrepid-1 spacecraft, however for some reason the ship blew up upon landing. Yuri and Sally and one of the crew members survived though, so mission complete?
@SimpleRocketsChat Challenge complete

@Thepro673 you can always bring a couple of lights, it's set right at dusk, so the faster you get there the more light you have as a reward :)
Its pretty dark lol its hard to see.
@pedro16797 oof
@SupremeDorian I'm pretty sure that was a joke, check the pinned comment
next time id like to see em be stranded on an urados ess moon lol XD it would let me test my mothership XD
@GoldenShadowGS This is meant to be a relatively easy mission to start this off. Future missions will be more challenging.
