High Speed Moon Rover Challenge

[Furry_God]

I challenge you to land a rover on the moon from lunar orbit without any engines or unbreakable parts. You can use rockets to get the rover into space, but you can't use them to land.

hhhhhhmmmm, can you use rockets to create a collision trajectory onto the moon? then dispose of them?

Yes, you can. You can slow down to 100 m/s before disposing of them.

Can you use some RCS, or is it considered as an engine too?

It is considered an engine.

Here is my solution:

The solar panels took the impact (even if the structures attaching them have broken). Was that what we are supposed to do?

I said that you can not use unbreakable parts. However, you can use structural parts to create a roll cage of sorts.

Done I just used Rcs to get it out of the cage.

Can you use a parachute?

Oh, I thought you meant the cheat "unbreakable parts" was forbidden, which made sense. Congrats to those who found the solution
