So, I was playing around with Wack-a-kerbal...

And then THIS happened.

I was launching slow, high density spheres at him, and he suddenly spazzed out. My goodness!

This happened every time I shot one at him and he touched it after recovering from this spaz.

I know this is kinda random, but could you make a non-explosive Orion Drive using W-a-K? Just put a load of metal plates on the back of your ship and bounce things off it.

I'd test it myself, but my mouse has no middle button.

That would probably work, although it would be a bit finicky trying to build up speed.

It is definitely possible. Starting from LKO, I got into a Munar transfer orbit using the Whack-a-Kerbal and some metal plating. It was painfully slow, accelerating at only 2 m/s/s. It could have gone by faster if I removed some of the armor. Also, I couldn't fire too fast or else it would blow up completely, and even still some of the armor exploded. I kept the mass and speed of the projectiles to around five to not destroy the ship completely:

In LKO.

A large chunk of the armor fell off because of me firing too fast.

Nearly there after a painfully slow "burn".

Mun encounter!

Also, no cheats, other than WaK, were used.

Edit: I tried to insert the craft into a Munar orbit, but for some reason, even at the lowest speed settings, the projectiles go much faster than they're supposed to, destroying the ship even with the cheats:
