Back to Basics (Season 2)

[seyMonsters]

We have explored Kerbin and its moons, now it is time to spread our boosters(?) and head out to explore the rest of the Kerbol System. Their have been a lot of changes to the game over the years, watch as with a little understanding and less skill we try to travel to new planets and new moons, sampling their delights and trying to get home!. On the way their will be mistakes, so please comment and give your advice as we go. Back to basics in Kerbal Space Program is going multi planetary!
