MOOSE escape pod

[Yukon0009]

The MOOSE was a one man escape pod with heatshield, and my station needed escape pods, so I built this.

It comes with a heat shield (aka Communitron 88) which hopefully will keep your kerbal safe from the fire.

Note on flying: The thing will not fly without SAS, so keep it on at all times! Also, when you need to use it,

1. Decouple the pod MANUALLY. (Providing your kerbal's in the chair.)

2. Timewarp untill over wherever you want to land, point retrograde, fire SRBs.

3. Don't burn to ashes and deploy the chute.

WeirdPhysicsTM may happen on landing and while your kerbal's out for a photo op, so remember to be careful and eject your kerbal at the first sign of WeirdPhysicsTM.

EDIT: This is a subassembly.

Nice, now we can be a little more safe... I play with FAR, and the atmo doesn't slow a Kerbal quite enough to do a skull-first lithobraking.
