Thought the same thing xD! Mission Control: "Commander this is Houston, our people on the ground suggest doing an EVA and giving it a little push to get you guys back on the right course for re-entry." Commander: "Uuuhh Houston... say again, sounds like you said get out and push?"
My first landing on the mun was filled with quicksaves and disaster. I ended up not having enough fuel to deorbit my lander so I used some of my last stage's fuel to do it. I landed safely but didn't have enough fuel to escape the mun's orbit after planting the flag. I sent a rescue craft, but had trouble with fuel again, and ended up landing over 5 kilometers away from the original craft. Because I had 3 kerbals that needed saving, I didn't want to Eva all of them 5 kilometers, so I ended up just taking off with the original lander and crashlanding it right next to the rescue lander. It was the dumbest thing I did and after a couple reloads I got it to work. They made it home safely.
@@1mariomaniac I got back into KSP after watching this video and ended up playing science mode. I landed on the Mun, and on the way back I had barely enough fuel to touch the atmosphere. After a couple of orbits, I suddenly remembered this video and used my kerbal to slow down the pod. It was so stupid but it worked like a charm.
Spyblox007 your Mun mission sounds hilariously similar to my first Mun mission. (I just got the game this week since it was on sale) My lander also ended up stranded with shortage of fuel. The difference is that my rescue mission lander had an unholy amount of spare tanks strapped radially to it that I used to refuel the core tank, and ditched on the Mun when I left. The other difference is that this massive amount of spare fuel enabled me to land 260 meters away from the first craft, and easily EVA the Kerbals over to it. I also launched a third Mun mission because I forgot to plant a flag either of the other two times, but it was uneventful and went perfectly

It would be pretty cool if empty fuel tanks would infact act as floaty devices at the 0 point in Jool. So we could have bases floating inside the dense atmosphere on Jool.
These brave Kerbals were at space for 11 years, 13 days, 3 hours and 13 minutes. They have had an astounding journey, collecting new, record breaking data from Jool. For their bravery I, Kraken Kerman, award these three Kerbals with the Lowne Medal for Bravery and Endurance in Space. This is the highest award for this category, which these Kerbals deserve.
That's really impressive Matt! I never thought a thing this big could go through Jool's atmosphere AND get back into orbit! Defying Kerbal physics... AGAIN!

Matt, my boy, is this your first time playing KSP? 0:56 what is Jool’s atmosphere? Dear lad, green gas in space can clearly only be the evaporated remnants of a tasty, tasty, delicious, likely minty, dessert. A scoop of it escaped that tragic fate and was sent flinging towards Kerbin hundreds, possibly even several of hundreds, years ago and was caught in the perfect -25 °C orbit. Did you know, when it rains on Jool, it rains chocolate chips!
I can't wait for KSP 2 to come out so that Matt can do a "Gas Giants grand tour" where he must enter each gas giant in the game, get science from each one, and return to Kerbin (or, if you can recover from interplanetary colonies, return to one of those colonies)
This video literally went from an ordinary mission to Jool’s atmosphere, to whiskey review, to Matt wondering how he could win a fight against the Moon. Oh, how much i love KSP TH-camrs!
This video feels like it will be cinematic! Anyone else? Think about it, a massive space station hurling through a gas giant, with temperatures reaching hundreds, or thousands of degrees! Would make a nice movie.
Propellers would work really well actually, as the atmosphere is really thick. I intend to do a mission where we fly deeper into Jool at some point, and return to orbit with propellers and engines
Matt, I doubt propellers alone would accelerate you enough to get remotely close to jool orbital velocity - which is about 5km/s. Stratzenblitz made a video of a jool ssto and that required liberal part clipping
I love this video. I've saw it for like 5 times and i still like it. The idea of sending space ship in atmospere of gas giant is just crazy and i love it.
Ever since you lost that science part when the heat shield destroyed I’ve been focusing on that the entire time. Great video though. The only places I can go to is the moon and minmus. Tried other planets but I can’t.

Dunno if you know this, Matt, but an Mk1-2 command pod or the Mk2 Lander can with 2 pilots can act as a remote probe command unit. What this does is that if the probe doesn't have a connection to the KSC but has a connection to the Mk1-2 command pod directly, the probe still has full control capabilities. So, you don't need the mothership to act as a relay, it can just control your science bomb or whatever else probe you might decide to deploy directly. If you have one of those 1.25 meter round probe core or the 2.5 meter round probe core (don't know their specific names) and you also have a command pod with a pilot kerbal that's not the Mk1-2 or the Mk2 it will still be a probe command unit. An easy example of this is if you have a space station say, in Eeloo orbit with a 2.5 meter round probe core and a coupla module with a pilot kerbal in it, you can control a probe you send down to the surface of Eeloo even if either the space station nor the probe has a connection to the KSC, as long as the probe is connected to the space station, you will have full control. This is useful when you don't want the weight of a heavy communotron weighing down your mothership or your probe lander. This is also useful if you are landing a probe near a surface base on the dark side of a planet or moon, the surface base can control the probe instead of having to have a heavy relay network to beam comms around the planet/moon.

"We've gotten science from Juls' Moons, science from all the planets, but never from Juls." My guy sounds like he's working for Aperture, gathering all the science he can. What is the science? We don't know, but it's science, and we need it.
An even closer counterpart to the Jool bomb was the atmospheric probe carried by the Galileo probe to Jupiter and was then released into the atmosphere.
I sent three Kerbals on a 6 year mission studying the sun. Unfortunately, Jeb got cabin fever and lost his mind, convincing the other two to go out on an EVA for "science" before initiating a burn that left them forever floating in the blackness of space. By the time he got back to Kerbal he had completely lost his mind and exited the craft as it descended, landing on the tarmac at the space center. Brave souls, all three. Tragic what happened.
1:01 Here is an answer. So you know how Minmus is bright green because it's made out mint ice cream? Same goes for Jool, only it's made up of vaporized pistachio ice cream.
Its actually possible to install Eve. Install it via CKAN, click on the Eve mod, select versions on the right bar, then install the latest one. The may also work for scatterer. Don't forget to install the configs!

I believe it's done by holding left shift and then holding down W, A, S, D, E or Q. As if you were rotating it normally.
@@wyldcat9396 Can confirm you are correct.
"We've gotten science from Juls' Moons, science from all the planets, but never from Juls." My guy sounds like he's working for Aperture, gathering all the science he can. What is the science? We don't know, but it's science, and we need it.
Since Matt is a optometrist, does he buy his furniture at IKEA? (Eye-Care)
?
Leave
good job matt
I tryed to make a "jool base" with propellers (but it started spinning)
Someone need to try making that
You mean like a floating base? That's a really cool idea!
@@rudysmith1445 yep, i tried to build it but couldn't make it stop spinning
if i'm not wrong, Danny did make one
An even closer counterpart to the Jool bomb was the atmospheric probe carried by the Galileo probe to Jupiter and was then released into the atmosphere.
"That is the jewl spelling"
Jool freaks me the hell out, there is something so lovecraftian about it
gotta love coming here almost first
same
Strong lost in space vibes
YES
I love how he randomly starts talking about whiskey while he is performing EVA with Jebediah lol
This was the first Matt Lowne video that I watched.
Jeb? Have fear? Jeb dont give a damn if he’s gonna crumple
Next you should build a propeller science base hovering over the 250m kill sphere
I sent three Kerbals on a 6 year mission studying the sun. Unfortunately, Jeb got cabin fever and lost his mind, convincing the other two to go out on an EVA for "science" before initiating a burn that left them forever floating in the blackness of space. By the time he got back to Kerbal he had completely lost his mind and exited the craft as it descended, landing on the tarmac at the space center. Brave souls, all three. Tragic what happened.
My Mind just explode after watching this.
I don’t think I’ve ever been so early to one of your vids! Looking good so far!
These videos are quite interesting and have gotten me back into Kerbal Space Program, keep up the good work!
A whisky man huh, just that bit alone is enough to have convinced me to have subscribed a second time if I could. Whisky and space would be awesome
"...do the missions... out of your own imagination"
That sums it up perfectly
26:30 Also they have a great internet connection with those 2 big relay dishes!
1:01 Here is an answer. So you know how Minmus is bright green because it's made out mint ice cream? Same goes for Jool, only it's made up of vaporized pistachio ice cream.
Why has this genius only got 341 Thousand subs?
kerbal one :Would it help if I got out and pushed ?
Commander kerbal : it might
"Just a small swing for a Kerbal, but a gas giant one for a Matt"
"Jolly ho for Science.. and may the Mun be with you!"
I only ever leave a like when the whiskey review segment begins. Best reviews👌
Its actually possible to install Eve. Install it via CKAN, click on the Eve mod, select versions on the right bar, then install the latest one. The may also work for scatterer. Don't forget to install the configs!
scatterer isnt updated yet
This reminds me of the time where I got a ship past the orbit of Jool in science mode using the phrase "M O A R B O O S T E R S"
