For this first big step of my travel, I decided to listen music during my hours of trip.
For those who want to discover new musicals horizons, I listen to : Other people's problem By Breton. The lyrics are in english don't worry !
Wow, you've really made it far!

Oh and what about my label ? To who I can send a PM to ask for my "Mad Astronaut" ? Or Blazer TtTOtW can you speak about that to the administrators?
An admin can do it, TtTOtW for example. However, giving custom titles or badges is not something the admins usually do, the choice is up to them.

For your rover, Perseverance would be a good name, but I believe there's already a Mars rover with that name... :rolleyes:

Bertrand Picard went around the world in a balloon and flew in several of his ecological invention. On August 4, 2019 Franky Zapata manages to cross the Channel standing on his flying board. For your label ask one of your compatriots who is the moderator of SFS once the record is over. Good luck.

Yeah of course !! Christoph Colomb never forbade someone to go in America :D:p
i have bad news in my rover.....
welp it did its best lost its ballast (sci capabilities too), wheels??, probe??
RMRF landed.png
welp the rover chassis is like in spirit/opportunity rovers (MER A-B) then the lander was stripped down of Apollo LM's Descent Module...
remnant of lunarmcroverface.png
welp it got rekt by almost destroyed and welp it survives but when i rotate it and ran it still move beyond crater and then it got totaly rekt....(no more even wheels never survives)
distance covered by LMRF 1.png
welp the distance it covers 2 plains and a lot craters (dang Mountains in 1.35 which slows my speed)

but the good thing is that i have 2 candidates for landing site of my lunar base......




Next attempt is to fly a semi-Maus tank on the moon and do your Mission :D :D :D :D

I don't think I've ever heard of one named like that. I know Spirit, Opportunity, and Curiosity, but not Perseverance.
It's just that it's still not arrived on Mars... Actually it will lift off in a few days.
That's the latest NASA mission, Mars 2020, Perseverance is the rover's name :)

Oh, I didn't know. I've heard about the mission, but didn't know the rover's name was Perseverance.

Update time :
I didn't played at my Moon Tour today so my rover is still after the 1/3 and before the 1/2. I didn't played because I just take a pause on the project to preserve my patience and my health.

But tomorrow... I'll try to reach the 1/2
