Tin Can 3000

In the not too distant future, after you launch this craft, it will arrive on Duna and set up a cool weather station.
Descend from a low orbit and use the 'chutes to land. Parachute descent speed varies depending on LZ altitude. Only a short burn just before ground contact is needed.
There is no specified launch profile for return to Duna orbit! Use your best judgment, and quicksave.
