Because Why Stop at LEO?
Phase 1: The "Moar Power" Upgrade
For the Moon, we’ll need:
-
A Bigger Rocket
-
Double the height, triple the flair. Moon missions demand grandeur.
-
-
Extra Fuel
-
Think "semi-truck of fuel" levels.
-
-
Navigation System
-
Upgrade to GPS: Galactic Positioning System. Pro tip: The Moon is "that way."
-
Phase 2: The Assembly (Lunar Edition)
-
Stack the Stages
-
Stage 1: Boosters to escape Earth.
-
Stage 2: Engine to cruise through space.
-
Stage 3: Lunar Lander with life support system
-
-
Lunar Landing Legs
-
Attach foldable legs to your module. Avoid installing backward.
-
-
Pack Snacks
-
Space ice cream and Tang. Nothing says "pro astronaut" like dehydrated food.
-
Phase 3: The Moonshot
-
Launch
-
Same as LEO, but add dramatic music for extra effect.
-
-
Lunar Orbit
-
Slow down or risk overshooting into deep space. (Oops.)
-
-
Landing
-
Aim for the flat bits. Craters = bad.
-
-
Explore
-
Plant a flag, bounce around, and take selfies. Bonus points for dancing on the Moon.
-
-
Return Home
-
Don’t forget to grab a Moon rock for bragging rights.
-
Congratulations, you’re now a bona fide rocket scientist! Or at least you will be, once the smoke clears.
