KSP: Falcon 9 boosted SLS to the moon in RO

The best version of SLS... That will never fly :(
Edit 1:
The capability presented here is a bit to optimistic as the burnout mass of the core stage is significantly lower than it should be. This flight might still be doable, but the margins would be a lot tighter.

Edit 2:
With the M1D getting another 12% thrust increase the margins are no longer tight, even with the more massive core. TWR at lift off is now around 1.28

For those who enjoy looking at plots, here are a few for a different launch of the same payload where active throttling was used to limit G forces during the boosting phase.
