It was a forward landing!! I didnt expect a rolling touchdown but, hey you have to adapt dont you?.

I doubt I can get back hom due to the Delta V required. I think i may have enough to get back into Kerbins atmosphere but not enough for a powered touchdown (No chutes)

Bad thing is, The Science lab is not manned, for some reason the game forgets that you have put people in and sends it up empty.

So now, Im going to send two guys up too meet it and populate the Science lab. The ship i send them up in will be capable of bringing 3 back home safe when the roving has been done.

I kinda like Video editing, something calming about it. I hate my voice though, too harsh and Northern, Hence the lack of commentry.

Your accent will sell very well here in the colonies. Of that, I can guarantee.

Technically speaking, would a rolling landing slightly reduce the delta-v required to set down on the mun?
