A short story by Austin Smith based on Kerbal Space Program. My name is Jake Kermin I fly Rockets to the moon and to other planets. Today is my first flight of the year and I feel good about it, like anything could go wrong. The ship I am flying today is the Kitty Cat Mark II, I must say its a nice ship. This trip I am going alone, the capsule on the ship only fits one man. 30 seconds after lift off I am in the orbit I set my nose to point the north pole towards the mun. I must say Kerbin is a nice planet its sad that Kerbin Space Centre is the the only buildings for miles on in. 2 hours after take off. I check my map on where I am going, "WHAT THIS CANT BE! I am going to escape the orbit of Kerbin." It seems everything has gone wrong. 3 hours after take off. "I am orbiting the sun right now and it seems I am out of fuel and RCS there is no way back home." 2 years later. "Seems they have forgotten about me. You know what I am going to hang on to my later on the outside of my ship." 2 years later. "No no no no I lost my grip must reach pod." Ah no use I guess I stuck in space forever now. That is the story of Jake Kermin. (Yes this actually did happen to me in the game)
