#0.18.2

Good evening, Kerbals.

Sometimes, you're just not fast enough.

Above, see how Commander Lenzor Kerman arrived in orbit of the newly discovered Eeloo to make a new discovery of his own - someone had gotten there first. 

Lenzor cruised up to and around the USFC's Discovery 11 for some time, making entirely respectful and not at all obscene gestures through the command pod window. Unfortunately, the crew of the Discovery didn't seem to notice, so busy were they ticking boxes on a list of 'space places been to'.

Well, shortly after Lenzor had had his fun, the Discovery burned for landing and Lenzor corrected his orbit in preparation for the same. Pictures of his landing to follow. 

Thanks for reading.

Seefrod and Henbree marvel at just how small the sun looks from Eeloo.

Additional Note:

The Discovery 11 was scheduled to fly to Dres on December 27th but the vessel's destination was changed when USFC scientist Eeloo Kerman discovered our solar system had a seventh planet. Wanting to ensure that the USFC landed on Eeloo before PARP, Edward V. West, the head of the USFC, okayed the change of destination on Decemeber 26th.
