Kerpollo 1 - "It was going so well until it exploded."

[Baconluver25]

So this was my first Mun landing in 0.22. Note that I haven't done I Mun landing in a LONG time, and I wasn't goofing around on other planets, I was just barely getting orbit. Everything was going well in this mission, it launched just fine, made orbit at the Mun just fine, and landed awesomely! The landing was the last good thing in that mission... After I got a surface sample, planted a flag, and took the obligatory photo, I hopped back in the lander and though I had PLENTY of fuel. I was wrong. So it was that on this day, Jebediah Kerman took a short sub-orbital hop when attempt to come home from the Mun, and crashed hard into the Munar surface.

So the Kerpollo 1 design was scraped and will be redesigned from scratch and tested beforehand in the future.

Interesting choice of words, there.
