The Pegasus I Mobility Enhancer is a ladder that Kerbals can climb on during EVA. It is the shortest ladder of all stock parts.

Usage

When put on a vehicle it allows Kerbals to grab onto it and move vertically up or down it. Each part contains three rungs of a ladder, so in order to traverse the length of a large rocket, or safely climb down to reach the surface you will need to use multiple units. You can space these out so that they have roughly the same spacing as seen in the part, your Kerbal will be able to safely transfer from one to the next. Kerbals are also smart enough to transfer to and from the integrated ladders on command pods and the two deployable ladders. If ladders are placed perpendicular to each other kerbals can transfer between them with the A and D keys.

It is a massless part.

Product description

The Pegasus I Mobility Enhancer, known in some circles as a "ladder", is a state-of-the-art vertical mobility device, allowing your intrepid crew to scamper around the exterior of your ship like highly caffeinated rodents.
