I just finished my greatest achievement so far: I rescued a kerbal from a reverse solar orbit. I built a ship with 18k delta-v (from Minmus orbit, as that's where my refueling station is) and had to save him within 19 years. The trip back was scary... I ran out of fuel when doing retrograde burn to get captured into orbit around Kerbin - I lacked 200 m/s or something like that. So I abandoned ship and continued burning retrograde using EVA thrusters, and managed to achieve a stable orbit with an apoapsis just below Minmus. That meant that I had to build a second rescue ship, but rescuing somebody from orbit around Kerbin was much easier and less stressful :).
