C'mon we gotta head back now

P.S. I'm gonna be drawing the new comic live on twitch in about 10 hours from this post (gotta sleep first) if you're interested!

I know it's just a webcomic but the KSP player in me hates how the engine bell sticks down past the landing legs
- It's an engine skirt. It lets the lander move around on the surface at low thrust. Think hovercraft.
- Hey, landing on the bell is better than those flimsy landing legs. Especially if you are tight on science and not unlocked the moving ones!
  
  Maybe those are retractable ones that are just in motion already?
- To be fair it's also blowing a sandcastle over on the moon. Where there's no atmosphere...
  
  I think expanding exhaust gasses from the engine plume dissipating against the surface could do that if the castle was close enough. But then again, I'm not a physicist, just a KSP player
The first time somebody builds a sandcastle on the moon out of regolith just for fun will be a historic moment for all of humanity.

As an artist, do you foresee people doing this just to prove they didn't use an AI?
- I can see that happening. It'll be like watching a blacksmith bang on some hot metal at a renaissance fair.
  
  I'm just wondering who has the time to watch somebody draw a comic online. It must be like watching paint dry
- No that's just something some artists do, it's not about proving anything.
  
  Not about proving anything yet. Not hard to foresee it'll have a larger effect as time goes on.
That's what happened to the first flag up there.
