It would be funny landing on Minmus just to discover that the ship you're going to rescue was destroyed by the transfer stage you put on crash course XD

I made my first trip to land on Gilly last night. On my way back to Kerbin, I somehow badly messed up a maneuver and fell into Eve's atmosphere. Jebediah had to ditch the lander cause the parachute broke off and use his personal chute to reach the surface. Now he's just chilling on the coast, waiting on Valentina to come save him. EDIT: Valentina almost got stranded herself but I managed to correct it in time. She and Jeb landed safely in the ocean just outside KSC. Good thing I put some science modules on Valentina's lander so I didn't lose all my science.

Me too, it's kinda like a military propaganda or a astronautics ad, i don't know.

That cheeky surprise made me smile. I loved watching the rocket lift up, such a kerbal thing tbh.

And that's exactly what happened to me the first time I landed on the Mün, and that's how I learned my lesson... well, it wasn't a solar panel, but the same effect...

Try setting all or most reaction wheels to SAS mode, really helps keeping vehicles stable.

Blunderbirds is by far my favourite series of yours, Matt. It gives me hope that I could resolve my own blunders...some day

Whenever I click on one of Matt's videos and see the KSP Reddit, I know it's about to be good.

Nice transition from the dark, spooky music to the Blunderbird intro!

this was one of the funniest kerbal vids I've watched. That reveal of the return ship was great.

ah yes the blunder birds, the age old sires, the one that i love, also i love the intro to the blunder birds, never gets old

Matt: Gotta keep that viewer retention up! Me, watching every video to the end: What kind of monster clicks off a Blunderbirds episode?

NASA parson 1: “Uh, we have a bit of a problem.” NASA person 2: “What? Did the lander tip over again?” NASA person 1: “No, there’s a solar panel on top of the hatch.” NASA person 2: “Oh, no problem, we’ll just send another rocket to go fix it.”

Oh I do so enjoy revisiting old Blunderbirds episodes. Matt's always so creative with his solutions. Me? Less so. I stranded a bunch of Kerbals in Laythe orbit with insufficient deltaV to get some, so I loaded the saved copy of the ship, stripped away all the science and crew stuff, added a probe core and sent it off to refuel them. They just sat there, unable to transmit the science home as I hadn't included enough batteries for the transmitter and waited. And waited and waited and waited and waited and waited lol

I like to see this kind. That rover was really cool and so was the launch from it. Maybe you should do a mobile launcher for a large scale rocket on Kerbin

The way the vehicle is set up with the landing rockets reminds of that one scene from the incredibles where they launch an RV using a rocket

The Blunderbirds vids are definitely my favourite ones that you do. Always happy for more to drop. Fixes rather than rescues are also welcome variety :-) nice.

Great to see another Blunderbirds! I'd love to see more of them doing in-situ repairs and modifications to get stranded crafts back home!

That intro is what gives me life

"return captain kiwis kerbals to kerbin" thats a tongue twister

Awesome work Matt, it’s very nice to see the blunderbirds back in action again!

It would be interesting to build a retrofitting station that has a boatload of repair kits/engineering kerbals and a craft to make adjustments/repairs to crafts offworld, something to do in my save, hehe.

I just want to say that I have been sick for 2 weeks and your videos are Really cheering me up

Great, would love to see more Blunderbirds repair/reconfiguration.

It wouldn't be a Matt Lowne video without two things: 1. Grammar Matt watching closely from above ready to correct or comment on sentences 2. "And there we are." I'm not kidding those are my favorite Matt-isms. So genuine, so knowledgeable, so entertaining. I look forward to these every Saturday. Thanks, Matt!

the rocket in the back of the truck was really awesome

I like the repair idea a lot!! It's very cool to watch.

I love this series so much.

Matt, this was an awesome idea. I'd like to see more Blunderbirds episodes like this where you repair or refuel the original player's mission. Keep up the awesome content!

This was great. I love the variety potential!

Explain the mysterious flag in Bill's 1.3 ton mission to Minmus.

Great video. Didn't expect the Kerbin Return Vehicle! Would love to see more mobile launch platforms.

Glad to see more Blunderbirds.

I like the idea of in situ repair videos, there could definitely be some interesting scenarios which require cool build solutions.

I get a tingly feeling when I see a notification from matt lowne. Love you man

Been waiting all week

hey matt-this is something that can get your gravity turns done quite perfectly and smoothly- turn on SAS, then right after launch, rotate about 5 degrees, wait a few seconds, then switch SAS to prograde, and watch your craft complete the gravity turn automatically. (note that you might have to mess around with the angle you start with)

Matt your vids helped me get ksp for 7pounds thanks a lot mate.

Hello Matt, love your vids. I have taken inspiration from most of your rockets, I absolutely love the game and your videos have helped me a WHOLE BUNCH!

The solar panel that is blocking then from EVA is kind of funny 😆.cool rocket as well

I love the blunderbirds intro, please don’t ever change it.

Blunderbirds repair squad; Genius, would love to see more

Can't get enough of the Blunderbirds, Matt!

Random redditor: I need help with this single solar panel Matt: “reconfigures entire re-entry module”

Bro love ur content I watch every Saturday

Can‘t believe you build a truck like that, I just tinkered with one that is inspired by the Alvis Stalwart - looks almost like this one, but six wheels with triangular pieces between the wheels 😲

I love every single thing you do :]

I love the Kerbin return pod!

Great build

I love this video series!

This video was released on my birthday. Neat.

Like the idea of repairs for Blunderbirds. Return rocket was awesome too.

Definitely include in-situ repairs!

For Blundebirds I imagine a Scenario, where a station with just enough fuel for a capture orbit at Jool runneth dry just before finishing the node so it's rather on a slingshot trajectory to be kicked out of the kerbol system. And you have to catch up with it and rescue the kerbals. Several difficulties (locations of station, all after executing the burn to jool): Easy: Just outside earths influence Hard: Halfway to Jool Extrem: Inside Jools influence Impossible: After Jools escape I thought this might be a cool challenge. What do you think?

Great build. Wish our trucks had boosters like that on them.

Builds a vehicle based on the military, with a return vehicle that literally launches like a missile. An intra-planetary ballistic return vehicle, perhaps?

Sup your ksp vids are great

Blunder birds is back POGGIES

Something you could try with that rover is to add the ore containers and a drill to fill it up when needed for extra ballast, the drill is so you dont have to haul it into space.

you just grilled your rescued Kerbals with your ascend gj :D

They’re back!
