Listened to the Beastcast on Friday and am expecting good things today!

Update after watching:

Awesome job! Seriously, as much as some of the duders complain, you guys couldn't have really nailed what was left to do in this mission much better than you did! Congratulations on the successful rescue!

Please give us a heads up for the live Manley video watching. I don't want to miss it!

Also, please please continue this series. There really is a lot more that you guys can do that are as cool if not more-so as landing on Mun. Here are some examples of things I want to see:

  1. Of course the most obvious one is a Duna landing + return. I think you guys already have the skills to get there and land. It would take some learning and trial and error - honing the knowledge you guys have gained through playing so far - to build the right ship and do the right maneuvers that would allow you to not only get there and land but also get back to Kerbin safely.
  2. Landing on Mun or Minmus with a rover vehicle of some sort.
  3. Docking a space station together using multiple launches and the docking system.
  4. Building some sort of space plane in the hangar assembly building instead of a regular vertical launch vehicle the rocket assembly building.
  5. Space resource drilling. I want to see GBeast combine their love of Kerbal and trucking to go full on into proper-physics-based (well... Kerbal physics based - which are 1/10th actual physics scale) space-trucking simulation.

You should really wait with slowing down untill you are right at the closest intercept point, then just go to 0m/s relative velocity and its ez money

36:25 if only there was a way to put your maneuver on the next orbit -.-

Holy shit that reentry was so bad , you guys are lucky as hell that there were no mountains or hills

About an hour in when they spend a while thinking about how to get the trajectory just right to land in the ocean and then time moves forward and the planet rotates. *Mwah* Pwerrfect! This is why I can't turn away from this series. So good!

Alex and Austin got their catchphrases out of the way early for everyone with a Project B.E.A.S.T. Bingo card, very considerate.

Well, Vinny, I was almost certain you were going to burn up in re-entry, but boy what an outcome. Project B.E.A.S.T. Will go down as a success in the annals GBeast history.

Where do we go from here.

@ilserpente: I suspect they'll do a season 2 with landing on Duna (Mars equivalent).

Thank you guys for an amazing series! What an ending! This has probably been my favorite content on GB to date.

I'm so glad that you stuck to all of your objectives and fulfilled them (some better than others, RIP). You gradually pushed yourselves and accomplished things that seemed impossible and incomprehensible a few episodes prior.

When/if you watch the Scott Manley video, it would be great if you also peeked in on your first episode(s) to see how far you've come.

I didn't think you could do it! Thanks for sticking with it and proving all me wrong. Great job and a great series. Thanks so much.

Edit to add: somehow I feel as if my non scientific but bold kid won first prize at the middle school science fair.
