Facepalm moments

[Spacethingy]

Wanted to make a scenario with a DG orbiting Jupiter.
Accidently put DG on surface instead of into orbit.

Pressure = gigantic? :download:

Result = marble sized DG? :facepalm:

That's nothing! I strapped 20 SRBs to an XR2 and XR2!!! :lol:

I beat that. I strapped 20 SRBs to Kulch's TX. Wondered why it took 50 km of ground to take off... :facepalm:

Attempting to go for the "as real as it gets" feel, I decided to not use external view and limit my exterior visual from outside the spacecraft. Of course I was trying to play hotshot and put myself in what I thought was prograde (wasn't using the HUD, again, playing hotshot and not paying attention to my movement over the Earth), I fired up the DGs main engines for a smooth manual TLI for a pop shot to the Moon.

After the burn I ran to use the restroom and collect a beverage from my kitchen. I return to find that instead of heading for a nice Lunar escape, I was instead reentering the atmosphere... I had fired my TLI burn in retrograde.

Good times.
