Do you name your landing sites?

[Brenok]

I named my first landing site "Jebediah Kerman" and use modified famous names or others (Isaac Kerman, Johannes Kerman, Galileo Kerman...)

Do you have any convention?

[tntristan12]

I usually just make up names that sound cool at the time. For example: "Tailhead Valley" is the valley at the tail end of the Mun where I have my base set up because I can go to kerbin by just burning straight up.

[Twistedpear]

Yep, named all my Mun landing sites

"Forgot the landing gear"

"Ran out of fuel just before touchdown"

"Not enough fuel to get back to orbit"

"Fell over on landing and fell apart"

"WTF happened there?!"

[erkha343]

(Mun)Armstrong Crater, Armstrong river, Mimas crater, TMA-1, Luna canyon, Feynman canyon, Mare praeteritum.

(Minmus) Ultima obice landing site

(Duna) Vallis caelum

Those are the ones I've marked so far, still got the whole Solar system to go!

Jebediah's Bold

Roncott's Arch

Jordred Cove

Kirk Canyon - Seriously, no name editing. Kirk Kerman is on my roster.

[Lazro]

"Arco Point" was one name, but that particular flag fell through the terrain...

[FlamedSteak]

I have;

Kerbquility Base - The first flag planted on the Mun

Kerbitan Base - The site of the first Minmus ladning

Rescue Base Camp - Where Jeb, Shersted and Lengman became stranded on the Mun and were rescued.....which is still on going. The rescue ship is now stranded in Munar Orbit.

I have yet to do very extensive mapping of the Mun, but do have a few sites. The most notable of these would probably be Madden plains, where I set down my first Munbase. Other sites include the Bilberry Arch and the Stargazer Highlands.

[AmpsterMan]

I have one on Mun so far "Kubrick Crater" Three guesses where it is located

[Brenok]

A monolith?

(I guess it was sort of a rethorical question, but it doesn't hurt to answer)

DING DING DING! you get one E-Cookie

[PaleoGamer]

My latest one is name "Bill was flying!"

[joppiesaus]

Yes I do name them: "3 years in a capsule and than you broke your landing gear?" Guess who is stranded.

[rodion_herrera]

My landing sites (and their descriptions) are all named in my native language (Filipino), which I find strange because I don't really consider myself nationalistic or patriotic I guess it's just easy for me to remember.

Sure ... the crater with the attached canyon that looks like a tadpole was named tadpole crater by me ...

the 2 craters connected by a canyon are the Bola Craters and the Crater with the Armstrong Memorial is the Armstrong Crater

[Tw1]

I do now. Sometimes.

"Mare Pullos"

"Observations Hill."

"Airstrip Island"

"Merman Hill"

"Richbin's Shipwrek"

That's all so far. It will be useful to find these sites again.

[Dunbaratu]

My two Mun landing sites are labeled with flags as "Mun Base Alpha" and "Mun Unit Zappa".

[justinlego001]

Named my first spaceplane landing "First Impossible Landing". I landed on the peak of a mountain with only feet of space to land. Luckily, I was stopped because of my huge wings with high lift and slow landings. I ended up with the plane touching down unharmed and was good as new. I ended the mission and forgot the pictures for proof. But it was great!

[Sᴄɪɴᴛɪʟʟᴀᴛᴏʀ]

I name my landing sites after the commander of the mission.

e.g If Jebadiah landed on the mün for the 908th mission I would call the site JB-908M landing zone. If he crashed it would be the JB-908M impact site.

[Drunkrobot]

On my first manned minmus mission, I landed in one of the ice lakes. Since I name my moon rockets after Apollo landing sites, I called the ship "Hadley", since it had the whole she-bang for Apollo 15, rover, ascent stage etc. I called the landing site "Sea of Hadley" in honor of the ship that got me there.

[Mulbin]

A picture from my Mun landing site... Futility Base.

[leax256]

I name my sites with ship names and descripion of other stuff. I also mark death points when ever possible.

[Guest]

I'm seem to have gotten into the habit of naming landing sites the same way I do vehicles... inconsistently.

[cesarcurado]

Yes, for the first time I landed in the moon after flags were implemented I called the landing spot Bill's Landing

[CalculusWarrior]

I usually name my landing sites something general like "First landing on the Mun", and detail the craft and the kerbals inside. Then, if I see a hill I like or something, I'll name that, usually after a past kerbal or something else.
