Jimmy Hapgood

Jimmy Hapgood was an astronaut from Earth. He received a radio signal sent out by Will Robinson and followed it to the planet on which the Jupiter 2 was marooned. Hapgood was launched into space on June 18, 1982. His original mission was to explore Saturn, but he lost his way (implicitly, by his own design). Since then, Hapgood planet-hopped throughout the galaxy in his ship, Traveling Man. He was a likeable, but cool, country boy astronaut who enjoyed a smoke from his corn-cob pipe. Hapgood left a graffito carved with his laser gun on every planet he visited; the tag he left on Priplanus was his 91st.
