		* And not experience more 5(?)Gs of acceleration.
			Advance: 1,500 funds.
			Reward: 2.0 science, 1 R&D point.
			Time limit: 4 months.

	Why?
		Noobs:
		* Better-paying alternative to early sounding rocket contracts, but limited supply.
		* Moderate advance can be helpful for getting out of financial pinches.
		* Helps fill out R&D without handing the player a ton of liquid.

		Pros:
		* Should be able to be completed with altitude sounding rocket contracts, if desired.
		* Helps fill the science gap that X-1 bullshit will leave.

Downrange Track Photography (Repeatable, Should be able to be completed 4 times. It takes 6 months after acceptance for the next contract to show up.):
	When?
		After the third Heavy Suborbital Rocketry contract is completed.

	What?
		(Should be able to be completed by a V-2-style simple ballistic missile, payload mass should require at least an RD101 or heavier.)
		* Recover early film science from low space.
		* And be some distance downrange.
		* With some large amount of SciencePayload.
		* And recover that SciencePayload.
			Advance: 12,000 funds.
			Reward: 3.0 science, 5,500 funds.
			Time limit: 4 months.

	Why?
		Noobs:
		* Large advance compared to other contracts gives a lifeline for getting out of a financial pinch.
		* Short time limit means that contract should be accepted only after the ability to complete it has been established.

		Pros:
		* Good funding source to pay for larger expenses like the RD103 or the 60t pad.
		* Can't all be completed too fast--will take at least two years for all contracts to be handed out.
		* A partial replacement for the mid-early-game funding and science boost of X-1 bullshit.

First Orbit:
	When?
		After the Karman Line contract is completed (yes, that early).

	What?
		* Transmit telemetry science.
		* While in a stable orbit.
		* With perigee above 150 km.
			Advance: 10,000 funds, 2 VAB points.
			Reward: 25,000 funds, 2 VAB points.
			Time limit: 1 year.

	Why?
		Noobs:
		* Scary mission, but they should feel pretty good about being able to pull it off after completing the last heavy rocketry contract. If not, they definitely ought to after they do a couple of the advanced rocketry contracts.

		Pros:
		* Advance is pretty good and will help get the FOLV built faster, but isn't enough to be worth rushing it just to invest the advance with the shorter time limit.
		* Still, you can start working on your FOLV as soon as you finish the Karman if you wish.

Advanced Suborbital Rocketry Series (4 contracts).
	When?
		After the completion of the Heavy Suborbital Rocketry series.

	What?

			Advance: 4,000 funds, 1 unallocated point.
			Reward: 20,000 funds, 1 R&D point.

		* Pass 1000 km.
		* While not spinning.
		* And reach 4000 km downrange.
		* While not spinning.

		Pros:
		* Provides funding between an early first orbit and FSO without a massive FSO advance.
		* Value of these conracts encourages working through the HSR series.
		* Boosts R&D to what you'll need to prepare for the lunar phase.
		* Can be completed earlier if you use unguided alternatives to the "intended" design.

First Scientific Satellite:
	When?
		After the completion of the First Orbit contract OR after the completion of the Advanced Suborbital Rocketry Series.

	What?
		* Do cosmic science.
		* While in a stable orbit.

		* Without the massive advance, you'll need to do suborbital missions to get the cash for the tech and upgrades you'll need.
		* Can either do FO and then FSO, or work your way through the ASR series and do them at the same time.
