Update From 'Operation: Black Eyes Key (B.A.yK)': So, Bill Kerman's journey took a strange turn. During the flight, he underwent problems doing a simple orbital burn, and extended his orbit so much, he reached a solar orbit (orbit of the sun). After analysing his orbit, we found this was his trajectory. As you can see, Bill has 3 possible exit paths should the two orbits intersect (He has no remaining fuel). He could crash back on Kerbin (Or the Mun or Minimus), he could land on Duna, or he could land on Dres.

So, my first mission as a Kerbal Space Programmer was to achieve an orbit around Kerbin. Here was Satellite Hub Launcher Mk I As you see it has 3-stages. First of all the solid rocket boosters. Then, after I jettisoned those, I would (in plan) go into orbit with the liquid engine and use the other 4 solids after I jettisoned the orange tank to finish it off. Needless to say that didn't work. The Mk II removed the final boosters, however I wasn't getting the height I needed. So, after a rethink, I just stuck the final hub onto an asparagus. The docking ports are for future parts to be added on. The results are unknown (Spoiler: I crashed because I messed up the stages, though Bill, Bob & Obidy all survived). Operation: Black Eyed Key (Or Op. B.A.y.K (Bake), ignore the fact it's spelt with E. Kerbal's don't need to know) will take place later today (GMT). Come back later for results!

So, I guess it's time to say hello! I'm Dylan, relatively new to Kerbal Space. I must say, thank goodness I watched a load of videos about KSP before getting it is such a major boost. I know about asparagus thanks to Jefmajor/One F Jef, I know if there are any good mods thanks to EnterElysium, and it's really given me a great boost. I play on my laptop, so if I do post screenshots, expect those of the lowest quality!
