Laythe Lander

Description

My Laythe Lander is underway to Jool now with Sigski, Sigmal, and Sondren in the Capsule.  I added lots of lights on it to light it up beautifully in the darkness.  The interplanetary drive on the right side is 8 LV-N's.  The central section with the solar panels is a Skipper engine I'll burn on descent to cut my speed and aim for a specific landing location.  It has 24 parachutes to get it to a soft landing.

The one thing I completely forgot to add to this one is Kethane mining and refining equipment.  My original plan was to land it on a Kethane deposit to make sure my tanks were full on launch.  I'll also have the interplanetary drive's fuel from the Kethane scanning satellite that'll be waiting in orbit.  I at least remembered to add a docking node to the lander so it can dock with it and either use its engine to leave Jool SOI, of just take its fuel.

They really need to put some 3m parts in stock KSP. That looks like quite a robust vessel.
