This makes sense now...but also bums me out because I canceled the mission because I couldn't figure it out haha. At the time I played it, these questions weren't posted yet. I'm glad I did read these though.

Thank you all for your responses and advice. After reading over my question, I feel like nothing screams noob more than that HAHA. @cantab - Wonderful advice, and honestly I noticed 95% of people on forums dislike Comic Sans... like every forum I've been on. Its humorous to me because I dont know why people dislike it. So usually I use it to see if people react. @Xavven - Literally laughed out loud when I read your comment. @technion - Holy crap... THIS rocket design is what makes me KNOW that I am a noob. A lot of my designs are very simple. Several tanks at the bottom to get out of Kerbins atmosphere and then a single slender looking rocket that tries to get to other planets. Which usually ends in failure due to no fuel. I guess I've never truly experimented with design. I am pretty tunnel visioned in my design, which I know isnt good. I've seen some pretty elaborate designs that look like they'd never leave the ground but low and behold hah. I guess I need to get my complex to make a good design that can actually get somewhere.... Also the who waiting for the right moment that someone else mentioned is a swell idea too.

Yea, I need to get a consistent rocket design going. And remember the details of it to help people understand my questions better. I've gotten to EVE once but then ran out of fuel. So there lies one of my Kerbins waiting for rescue lol. The DeltaV info helps a lot though! I appreciate it. No discouragement. I noticed rather quickly EVE was harder compared to the rest. As far as being new, you could say that. Only been playing a few months. I learned the add a maneuver feature (should of learned of the bat) and its helped immensely. I dont think I've hit up any of those planets yet but its worth a try. Its just a little bit harder for me to maneuver a encounter in the Suns orbit instead of Kerbin for obvious reasons. Thanks for the advice!

My biggest trouble with this is fuel. By the time I get out to the Suns orbit (which is quite large) and shrinking the ring down to EVE. By the time that occurs, I have little to no fuel. So the answer is obvious. Put space station on the suns orbit. So any advice or tips on how to get to EVE and return to Kerbin?
