Dude. Have YOU tried this? You go *poof* because the thrusters can't slow you down enough to land on Kerbin.

Proof: Try to lift using RCS on Kerbin. You can't, so you have absolutely no hope of slowing.

What about reaching a craft in Kerbin orbit, with those external drop pod things. Would that be possible? (Maybe the craft should RV with the Kerbal instead...)

@Below: Ninja'd! :D

It is impossible to land on kerbin with the RCS thrusters. Might I propose a different change? How about RCS return from Minmus (is this possible? I need to try?) and have the kerbal picked up by a rescue craft in orbit around Kerbin. This is how I will do it. The rules don't say how to land, only that must EVA pack home.

The rules don't actually say anything about landing on Kerbin alive. Although that is certainly possible to do without technically boarding anything. I will be making an entry in this later today or tomorrow.

Yep you don't need to make it alive. of course here it's my entry!
