So today marks the 30th anniversary of our first failed rocket. Today we are going to break that chain and thrive into space!

We are working on a rocket with 6 trillion pounds of thrust. It's called,
The R6 Radon fueled Tri-Stage celestial orbiting thruster.
We told the head of KSP lab and construction facility.
Here's what he said, I want 5 of them.
It's a great success!

His POV (he doesn't have a name yet)(no, it's not gonna be Jebidiah)
T Minus 60 seconds.
That's our queue.
"Vand! Stop the launch! We've been sabotaged!" My assistant, Watson, was shrieking at me like a mad man!

"What do you mean?!" I yelled back
"I mean MCP has sabotaged the R6 rocket! They cut the fuel line! Do you really want it to be the other disaster of the G5 rocket?!"
"Fud no!" I yelled back. I looked at the big red emergency cancel button. It radiated a evilish red glow.
T MINUS 15 seconds

I looked one more time. That's it. I slammed the button.
ALERT ALERT ALERT! ROCKET LAUNCH CANCELED. RADON INJECTORS COOLING DOWN.
How in the name of celestial rocketry did the Mars Corp program sabotage the R6?! This place is guarded like a prison!

"VAAAAANNNNND!" Oh geez, it's my boss.
"Vand! You better have a good meaning for this!"

"B-b-but, Watson told me someone cut the fuel lines!"

"Funny, I just sent a guy to check and guess what he found. NOTHING!!!! I'm forced to promote Watson and demote you to Watson's assistant."
Weird, Watson had a smirk on his face, something's not right here.
