Elon Musk recently used the Falcon Heavy to launch his Tesla Roadster into orbit with the radio playing David Bowie's "Starman." (Apparently no one told him that sound doesn't work like that in space.) We decided to do the same thing in Kerbal Space Program only better. Any old schlub can launch a car into oribt, but ours is going to land on the Mun, pick up some passengers and bring them back to Kerbal! Oh, and our Starman is a real live Kerbal (although admittedly he does not have any actual control of the rocket, so this point is moot.) For this project we used the newly researched rover wheels which have an amazingly high landing speed tolerance. The thing that surpsised us most (other than the fact that this thing actually worked) was the fact that the rover wheels turned when we were trying to turn the rocket in space.
