  1. I started a new game and landed on the Mun, in honor of the 45th anniversary of the Moon landing today. Those guys made it look so easy...
  2. To Neil, Buzz and Michael. You made this look so easy 45 years ago. Thanks for inspiring all of us. Jeb.
  3. Here at the third turn of Munar motor speedway...
  4. Been experimenting with designs for a planetary mission
  5. So I wanted to get Jeb off of my space station (as you do) and I wanted to put another crew up there but I didn't feel like designing a crew shuttle. So I just go "what the hezmana" and shove a bunch of Kerbals onto my Mun rocket and dock it with the station... So yeah, the most over-engineered crew shuttle in existence. I'm sure the accounting office will have fun explaining that. Then I decided. You know, it would be a shame to just jettison this perfectly good lander stage. I wonder if it can land on Kerbin? You can't tell but the command module is still sitting on top of that lander. There's almost no fuel left, but it landed. I guess it will work on Duna.
  6. Another day, another space station redesign. And if I never have to dock an orange tank again I'll be a happy Kerbanaut.
  7. Spent way too much time redesigning my space station. Again. Never got it launched. (Well, not in one piece anyway.) I did put up a mapsat, so that's something.
  8. I'm assuming you mean my first landing that didn't involve lithobraking? I had @stnylan's problem. Somehow I managed to stay upright, but it was pretty funny looking.
  9. I know, but seeing the pairs of boosters jettisoning made me think of it.
  10. New trailer for Europa Report. Look! Asparagus staging! http://io9.com/see-for-yourself-how-europa-report-brings-life-back-to-513452201
  11. They're controlling one of the Kerbals. When you EVA a Kerbal the mission timer starts at the point the Kerbal leaves the craft.
  12. I accidentally jettisoned my main engine instead of throttling it back up when trying for a Munar orbit. Tried to make it with my return stage and wound up in this orbit with no fuel. Burned RCS thrusters for several minutes until my periapsis dropped into Kerbin's atmosphere and got the crew back home.
  13. Decided to land in the mountains on Minimus instead of the plains like usual. Jeb found a canal. Or maybe the equator. (Or maybe just a graphical glitch...)
