Vessel is destroyed. Cannot autosave at this point.

I'm just gonna stay out of this because I don't know one bit about politics.

Picoseconds
I remember when I was still quite young, maybe grade 1 or 2. There were a bunch of people on the school bus older than me, and I was talking to them about small measures.
They claimed picoseconds don't exist, because they have a list of prefixes for SI units at home, and "pico-" isn't one of them.
I was right in the end. So yeah.
(Hope I'm not derailing the thread too much)

"how to get to eve"
Let's hope there aren't zombies on Eve.

Here’s a suggestion: divide the number of days since the first post by 95. That’ll be the average time.
What if I want it in seconds?
Or nanoseconds for that matter?

By the way @rkarmark, I know school work gets in the way, I'm going through the same stuff as you are.
Not really wanting to push you, but please update the leaderboard, when you feel like it.
Thank you.

By the way, how long does @Just Jim take to write a chapter?
Not trying to push you, but I'd really like moar! I loved it!

I am trying to launch a man on the surface of Mars safely in this week, and it has been many failures.
RSS/RO?
I'd be surprised if so.

Hi guys!
Unfortunately I encountered a bug in my Mun elcano attempt, and so I had to send a new rover over to Val.
The rover is now on the Mun.
Happy driving, Valentina!

When you think about quicksaving before doing something risky in real life.

So so so true.

The Big Bang.
Because why not?

That would be the kraken tentacle. That is kraken soup, mind you.
Waiter! Kerbol is in my soup!

Oooh, yay.
Jeb can take me to the Mun, and we’ll live there for the rest of our lives.
Oh wait. The R&D people are zombies too.
Let’s hope Jeb is as good at piloting as he is a scientist.

Here’s your Navball soup with apoapsis cream sauce.
I want sea bugs. You’ll know what I mean if you’ve read The Saga of Emiko Station.

I think he's saying he wants it there for all levels of Launchpad, not just level 1
Exactly. Because we all love it!

Hooray! I've finally finished reading the whole series!
Remember when the baddies were the red saucers? And Thompberry was an actual kerbal, operating the Tower of Power?

I landed a crew next to the rover that I already had on the Mun, and started a Mun Elcano.
I'm currently about 53.1 km from the initial landing site.
Wish me luck.

Next stop, Mun.
I've sent my rover over, and now I'll be sending the crew.
Wish me luck!
EDIT 1:
A small teaser for now:
Rover's probe core: "I am worth your salt!"
EDIT 2: Some sort of kraken broke my rover upon quickload. I will have to send a replacement.
Thankfully, I still could EVA Valentina, and so I can continue with my Elcano as soon as I land.
EDIT 3: Hooray! The rover has landed. Val will drive the remaining 3/4 of the way on this rover (hopefully).

This looks like a stock rover. Slow and not really drivable. Yet you managed to drive this thing around Minmus
Yup, that's a stock Crater Crawler, with a few modifications: I put an extra probe core and a Mechjeb module. It is slow, I usually chug along at 8-12 m/s, although I drive at 20 m/s on the flats. I use 3x timewarp, which doesn't crash my rover or the game, and Mechjeb can tolerate this.
The main reason I chose it is because it can handle this:

Next stop, Mun.

Yay I'm done with my first Elcano!
Crew: 1 (Valentina)
Time: about 2 Kerbal days, about 1 Earth day
And we're off!
*whistles* "La la la la la la la... Sing a happy song..."
Ahhh... Home...
Ahh, this brings back memories. This is where I first landed a crew on Minmus.
(Spoiler alert: Easter eggs shown)
Spoiler"Mum, look at me!"
Another detour brings me to the landing place of the first kerbal-made object to enter Minmus's SoI. Val becomes the first kerbal to get anywhere near this thing for 10 years.
I unfortunately lost two of my spotlights. I flipped and so I wanted to quickload but I accidentally press quicksave. This always happens.
Val completes her trip around Minmus.

I'll go grab my badge.

I sort of just did this, in under an hour too! Made a video - it was all great.... until.....
........ I had part G force limits enabled......... I was on final approach, around mach 2 preparing to land........
....... It turns out that my aero-braking maneuver exerts around 70G onto the craft........... and some of the airframe couldn't take it...... but the wings stayed on along with some of the control surfaces, as did 2 out of the three wheels..... so with only 1 aileron and 1 horizontal tail piece, and 2 out of 3 wheels I touched down at 100 m/s (WAY TO FAST)...... I almost had it, but the bounce, then the roll and BOOM!
No survivors. Not even a single bit of debris.....BUT I DID MAKE IT ALL THE WAY AROUND KERBIN!
Am I disqualified for it being a fatal flight?
EDIT: I didn't save the video properly, so I am definitely disqualified... Darn it
I use F5/F9 a lot for airplane touchdown, because I'm a n00b and I take 20-30 landing attempts before I can actually land.
On my circumnavigation attempt I was moving WAYYY too fast for touchdown and I had to pull up and reattempt.
-
Having recently completed a circumnavigation of Kerbin by air, I'm deciding to try this out on Minmus.
The plan is to send a rover, then a crew that lands and transfers to the rover.
The rover completes the circumnavigation, then the crew transfers back to the lander. The lander goes back to Kerbin, leaving the rover and flag there.
EDIT 1: I'm now home, let's try this out!
EDIT 2: Hooray, the rover is on Minmus! Let's send the crew over!
EDIT 3: I'm off! Wish me luck!
