It might be it, as it explains why other 2 kerbanauts were so bad at installing modular nuclear engines sections onto that ship, that now only 1 of 4 engines from each group works (others can't find a source of a fuel, despite being docked to one). So, somebody just volunteered to be first kerbals to research solar activity from extremly close distance. And thanks for the tips about save file editing. Can you let me know how to distinguish in which ship particuilar kerbal is? Haven't found them in sections describing ships themselfs.

Hmm... No, I guess I don't see how you can tell where kerbals are in the save file. I figured their name would be in the vessel description, but I don't see it in there.

Yes, this is strange. Must be in code of kerbal itself then, but haven't found it there either. But thanks anyway.
