Have I gone mad? maybe.
So. Apollo². Why land on the Moon once, when you can go to the Moon and back twice in one launch? And how about a Starship-style landing of a fully loaded Saturn V stack? Sounds fun, right?

Everything was done on the full RSS/RO suite of mods, in KSP 1.10.

Edited parts:

Re-entry: Because I don't have a proper mechanism to build TPS onto the Saturn V (or control large scale Starship-style flaps), "ignore max temp" was used during re-entry.
FAR Aerodynamic failures were also disabled.

The F1A was given an extra ignition, so that it could light for the flip and also for second launch.

Mods used:

RSS/RO/RP1: At the time of writing, KSP 1.10. Find the install guide here: https://github.com/KSP-RO/RP-0/wiki/Installation

Other mods featured:
DECQ Saturn V
Conformal Decals
Real Scale Sea Dragon

Most of the mods can be found through the installation guide:
https://github.com/KSP-RO/RP-0/wiki/RO-&-RP-1-Installation-for-1.10.1


Nowadays it's pretty simple, RP-1 "express install" should give you most of them.



I also used DECQs Saturn V https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/176505-12x13x14x-saturnv-v103-d160718/



Real scale sea dragon for the engines (modified by me to run on kerolox/hydrolox)
