Thanks! I'll give that plugin a try.

Also, if my heading was 90 degrees instead of 270, what would be my ejection angle be then?

I'm having no luck on my return to Kerbin from Duna. Getting to Duna using Kosmo-Not's guide is no problem. However, I have yet to successfully return. My angle to prograde I am using is 301 (using a heading of 270) and my phase angle is -75. Maybe I am just misreading Kosmo-Not's guide, since the angle listed in 121 degrees to retrograde (using a heading of 270). Any advice?

Why is this game so hard and so addictive.

Right now I'm trying to do the interplanetary simulation challenge. My rocket is beautiful and fully capable. I know I can get there and make a perfect touch-down. And then the Kraken raiseth its ugly head and I'm forever lost in space and I have to get up and not play for the rest of the day. I LOVE this game but I HATE that bug. -

A perfect landing with just 3 RCS tanks and 3 Kerbals hanging on for dear life and no capsule has got to be one of the coolest KSP youtube videos I've seen. -

Joystick recommendation (and avoidance) thread
figmentius replied to colmo's topic in KSP1 Discussion
I use the Attack 3 as well. Anybody else experience an issue with take offs where your planes veer off the runway? Not sure if it is poor calibration with my joystick, which seems to be fine once actually in flight, or a bug with the game. Without the joystick I take off straight every time. -
I just copied the design and built it myself. It is pretty sweet. Landing it as a glider is a bit tricky, but doable.

Tom, Bilvin, and Errick don\'t seem very happy about it. Edit: Attached the .craft file.

A challenge for the true astrophysicists out there: Use the Mun\'s gravity to slingshot a rocket to Minmus orbital distance. The only requirement is that the rocket\'s initial velocity isn\'t enough to reach Minmus orbital distance without the Mun\'s gravity assist. The absolute most hardcore steely eyed missile-man would be able to not only slingshot it to Minmus orbital distance but actually have it lined up to reach Minmus.
