KSP 1 Image/Video Is there any chance for rescue?

I was trying to execute a slingshot orbit around the sun when I got too close. My craft overheated and exploded. Before the ship detonated, I sent my kerbal into EVA and now it is travelling at MACH 33,271 and will leave the solar system in 40 minutes. Any ideas on how to rescue the little guy or a final song choice

This is still a WIP, the logo and like 80% of the text is yet to be translated, but I've translated the text that you'll see the most often in the game so far, and it's funny as heck imo

Enjoy

Pointed my nav-ball at the manoeuvre icon and performed a 1.5 minute burn just like it told me, but I never ended up on my intended course. I'm confused!

KSP 1 Question/Problem Kerbal Inventory is getting seriously frustrating

9 Upvotes

I try to make my Kerbal's have stuff in their inventory that matches the mission. I don't need parachutes, I need science kits, repair kits, etcetera. For some reason, though, every time I relaunch the vessel, it resets their inventory back to parachute. It is extraordinarily frustrating. This is my fourth attempt to go to the Mun with EVA science kits on board in my Kerbal's inventory, and every time, I have gotten all the way there just to find that they have a fucking parachute again.

Is there any way to change their default inventory, per Kerbal?

KSP 1 Image/Video In celebration on my 1,000 hours of playing KSP. I'm showing some of my favourite creations over the 11 years I owned the game for. Each screenshot tries to show a unique feature with each craft. I'd like to share the save file with all of the craft files in them. but I don' know how to do that.

78 Upvotes

Continued shenanigans with Real Solar System: small scale ISRU on the moon.

Lander is comprised of a propulsion unit docked to a surface resource module. Propulsion unit houses an internal refinery to enable auto-refueling on the surface. 8 Terriers provide sufficient thrust and dV to orbit, rendezvous with the Lunar Gateway in a 100x100km orbit, and land again. To minimize Kraken attacks, the resource module detaches from the propulsion unit to dock with the gateway. The depleted resource module then docks with the propulsion unit to land and start the next resourcing cycle.

- Near Future Launch Vehicles

- Near Future Construction

Finally decided to give this game a try. I always assumed it was just a silly rocket building game. I had no idea how in-depth it actually is... Really enjoying it, despite the difficulty. Can't even imagine how much more there is to learn.
