R.I.P Ercott Kerman Mun Rover Mission 2012

[kacperrutka26]

Hello everyone!

Today, sadly Ercott Kerman died on the mun when he was on his mission with his crew members discovering the mun with a mapping rover. Long story short, he was chosen to be on a rover mission to drive at least 25 km South of the base. He was successful at getting there. But he wanted to get back really quickly to tell his mates but he was going 30 m/s and.... well there was a hill and the rover was in the air, trying to control the rover whilst screaming he tried to slow down. Unfortunately the rover toppled over at the speed of 20 m/s. The rover was fine but the pod he was in didn't. Now his crew mates are sad and are staying on the mun waiting for his return, even though he might never come back.... They will never go until he comes, there are now 2 of them and the place of the crash is 16.6 km away from them. The data is in the rover but neither want to go. I guess they might need a mission to get them out of there since they're so sad :(

Here are some pictures that I took:

So that's the rememberance of Ercott Kerman, the first Kerbal to walk, drive and sadly die on the mun in 0.17...

Is that ISA MapSat? I didn't know it could map from the surface I'll have to try that out. But ya sorry about the loss of your brave kerbanaut you should land something at the crashsite in the future as a memorial.

And you should take the other 2 out to the crashsite and make them see. As an example. Speed kills. No goofing off on the Mun!

Yeah it is ISA Mapsat. And I will make the kerbals go there and make a special landing memorial there. More mods!
