Thread of the Year 2019

[Gargamel]

Well, the Earth has completed yet another orbit of the sun, and that means it is time for the Thread of the Year for 2019!

 

This year's winner is a great display of what it means to do something in the most Kerbal way possible, by using parts from the latest release from SQUAD, the Breaking Ground Expansion DLC, to do something crazy and stupendous.  In this challenge, @ManEatingApe challenges us to fling a kerbal to the Island runway by any means possible that doesn't use an engine.  There were lots of great entries, and @ManEatingApe did a great job officiating.  

Congratulations to @ManEatingApe for this thread and all who participated.  Feel free to add the TOTY of the year badge your thread and your signature if you'd like.   Special thanks to @adsii1970 for the badge, always great artwork.

Thank you, I'm flattered and delighted!

The thread is still open for anyone casually considering contributing crazy Kerbal catapulting capers...
