Winners Junior edition

Ukrainian Aerospace
Alexander Andersen-Shevchenko and Ilya Pentyuk
Kyiv
$ 500
I am amazed that we succeeded! In a few hours, we built a space rocket that was able to go into orbit. Over the course of two weeks, we refined it and even ditched the heat shield to make the design cheaper. We used both solid fuel and liquid engines. The mission was successful!

It was quite difficult to figure out how to build a rocket.
At first, our ship generally broke in half! However, we found a solution and completed the mission

Several people were afraid to share information, but I was quite active in the chat discussions and helping others. In my opinion, you should always communicate with people and help each other, it will help to achieve the best result

I radically changed the design of my rocket like, 5 or 6 times. Each time I thought it couldn't get any better, but I was wrong. Thank you all very much! Never give up and never say never.

$ 200
I would like to thank the organizers for this opportunity. I started playing Kerbal Space Program in 2013, I was just old enough to participate in the Noosphere Space Games. Junior edition. It didn’t exist then, and unfortunately I abandoned the game. Competitions like this are a very strong motivation, so I decided to come back.

$ 100
It was a very interesting experience. I had so many ideas in the beginning - from a space plane to a stratolauncher. This journey has been very interesting and I learned a lot of new things, even though I had considerable experience in KSP. I can't wait for the next competition!

Before participating in this competition, my knowledge of Kerbal Space Program could be described by the phrase "heard of its existence". However, I was able to overcome all difficulties on the way to victory, and so can you!
