Congrats! That's arguably the hardest landing to pull off.

Thanks! It took a couple of redesigns because I wanted to be able to go from high orbit to landed then back to high orbit. It ended up taking over 6000m/s delta v.

Oh and I wasted one whole try because the stupid ladder didn't want to work right. It wouldn't let me climb all the way back up to get back in the command module.

I'm always impressed by the chonky landers, but yeah, they do want you to test the ladders before flying half way across the system, lol.

This is how I did it: https://kerbalx.com/willis888/Tylo-Science-Collector
