Ranger VIII

The Ranger class SSTO's are certified for Single-Stage-To-Martian-Surface without refueling. This version of a Ranger SSTO is made specifically for landing on almost every one (excluding Eve and Tylo) of the celestial bodies without atmospheres in the "Kerbol" system, with alot of mining. I might even upload a YouTube video on my channel (which I will link here if I every do the video) where I demonstrate this SSTO's capabilities. I'm very new to making SSTO's that go further than Duna so it probably isn't very efficient, and if you notice a thing that I could upgrade to the craft, please send me a note in the comments to this craft file.
This Ranger doesn't have a docking port as to not highten the dry mass of the craft.

*Flight Path*
Step 1: Press 2 To Start The R.A.P.I.E.R.'s
Step 2: Take Off.
Step 3: Pitch up at an angle of attack of about 15-20 degrees.
Step 4: When you start to loose speed, pitch down to get closer to the prograde marker, do this very slowly.
Step 5: When you are going over 440m/s, stop pitching down. You will accellerate faster now.
Step 6: If you are going to crash into the surface, pitch upwards very slowly as to not loose speed.
Step 7: When going about 550m/s pitch up at an angle of attack of about 20 degrees.
Step 8: When crossing the 20 000m mark, switch mode on the R.A.P.I.E.R.'s by pressing AG[1] for the best effect.
Step 9: When crossing the 25 000m-30 000m mark, turn on the Nuclear Engines and keep a close eye on the resource panel, for when the oxidizer gets under 150 units, turn off the R.A.P.I.E.R.'s by pressing AG[1] and AG[2].
Step 10: Spacetravel
