Inspired by the Aldrin Cycler Orbit, the old POS-1 simple orbital station and its mini-lander modules are used as a space tug to bring a large research lab to Minmus. If its trajectory were not modified, POS-1 will eventually return to Kerbin in 30 days.

With veteran crew Jebediah, Bill, Bob and Valentina keeping the 50-ton mass of the "Space Sheep" in check, they reach Minmus safely ready to deploy the lab, the mini landers, and a microsatellite hitching a ride on the "tail" of the spacesheep.

This video is a continuation of the Primitive Orbital Station series, the forum thread of which is located here. Thanks for your kind support, KSP Community!
