My long journey to Eeloo

I'm not gonna write a long story. But for the past three days I've been playing hours and hours with the kethane mod. I built a modership with a detachable lander to collect kethane and bring it up for conversion. I went from Kerbin->Minmus->Ike->Dres->Pol->Eeloo and refueled several times at each planet. Thank you kethande mod. The total duration of the flight is nearly 17 years. The distance between Eeloo and the sun is about half the distance between our Earth and our sun. Now I feel small.

Here is a screenshot of the lander right now on its first Eeloo landing, harvesting Kethane. http://i.imgur.com/IaA4BdW.jpg

I might try to go back to Kerbin with the same ship and progress inwards to Moho. However since Eeloo has stronger gravity than the other moons I've visited, it might cost me more fuel to go down and back up than what I earn from mining. However my mothership still has quite a lot of fuel so I should be able to make it back to Pol and refuel there :)
