Well, you got trolled

Man, that's so hilarious.

[Warscribe]

maybe you put two of them in the same spot and they're clipping now?

They let Jeb install the panels, while he secretly installed JebAntiSolarpanel.exe on the ships computer, XD

[CalculusWarrior]

He must have been jealous of the probe for being able to fly the mission while he stays back on the launchpad

"If the probe runs out of power, they'll have no choice but to take me! Mwhahaha!"

I put panels inside ya panels so you can... oh wait.

I had that happen once to a Duna launch.

I had two Gigantor solar panels. Both were extended. But I hadn't noticed the orientation of the ship before engaging time acceleration, and when I arrived I was surprised to find out I had no power (and therefore, a derelict craft).

The craft had rotated during my ejection burn from Kerbin. One was in the shadow of the craft, and the other was facing the Sun, but edge-on and not receiving power.

Argh!

An easy way to fix this is to put a few extra OX-STAT panels here and there, along different axis of your craft, so at least ONE should get solar energy at all times.

Or just use PB-NUKs, which is what I mostly do now.
