UPDATE It seems I am done accelerating, but now I am rapidly gaining altitude. UPDATE 2.0 While writing that, I checked KSP again. I have gone through the Sun. I am now on the 'other side', and I hypothesize that I will continue back and forth like a yo-yo, gaining and losing altitude, accelerating and slowing down, until I come to rest at the 'center' of the Sun.

So, I think I may have launched the Kermans into the Sun... Everything was going fine. I wanted to land on Mun with a simple two stage rocket. Eventually, it started accelerating too rapidly, and everything blew up. Well, everything except for the command module. I decided to fast-forward, and within half a second that shot past Mun. Eventually, something with a strong gravitational pull caused me to stop accelerating, and then accelerate in the opposite direction. I thought it was Kearth, as I was losing altitude, but as time wore on, I noticed that the Sun was getting larger, until all it was all I could see. As of writing this, I still have 100,000 Km to go until I figure out what\'s going on.

Who cares if it's a misquote? I for one wasn't quoting the movie, but carrying on its spirit. -
Except it's ... Gary ABUSEy

The ship becomes unstable in mid-flight

Yeah, this problem could be a number of things. Honestly, it's like going to a doctor and complaining about pain but not giving the doctor any details. -
But that sounds almost like cheating...

That's just beautiful

Supraluminal, could you upload your ship? That thing looks amazing. Also, I'm too busy/lazy to build my own ship right now.
