Pluto100 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Hello! Here is my tutorial for getting to the Mun! I also included the .craft for the ship I used.1. Launch. 2. Turn to *90 at 10,000 M. 3. Wait to reach Apoapisis. (Stop Burn.)4. Have an orbit of at least 200,000 M+. (Burn)5. Expand orbit to 15 Million M. 6. Wait. (Stop Burn.)7. Congrats! You have reached the Mun! 8. Reduce speed when you feel like it. (Don\'t waste fuel though!)9. Congrats! You have landed on the Mun!10. Live on the Mun forever!!!Good luck!P.S I just suggest 200,000 M is because if you miss, you can timewarp faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shhhilent1 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Tips: You did not say when to burn, so, we could burn at the wrong time, and thus miss the mun.2: you do not need an orbit of 200k m+3: you should have a 100X100 km orbit and wait for munrise to do the burn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pluto100 Posted June 25, 2012 Author Share Posted June 25, 2012 Fixed it! I added times to burn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerDanger75 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Pluto\'s way, although inefficient, is still perfectly valid. You do not need a 100x100km orbit to get to the Mun. In fact, if you really wanted to, you could have a 75 x 86 000km orbit and just wait around till your path intersects with the Mun. Again, not efficient, but it gets the job done.This is KSP though, efficiency is for chumps! ;P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shhhilent1 Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Well, when you say burn, where are you? we could be launching at a different time, thus burining at the time you told us, we could miss the mun.FAKE-EDIT: XD I forgot ur on the demo! in the full version the time changes.
