Here\'s the rocket I\'m using. All stock parts. First Attempt: I managed to get into a lunar orbit, but I didn\'t handle the fuel well enough to circularize it or leave. I ended up stuck at the border between Kerbin and the moon\'s spheres of influence somehow. Second Attempt: I tried to do a close (1000m) orbit, but some clumsy finger work resulted in hitting the windows key when I was about to shut down the circularizing burn, and somehow KSP crashed. Third Attempt: I managed to do a powered descent that sheared off most of the return stage. Fourth Attempt: I tossed on another few fuel tanks to the main stage for this one. I managed to touch down on the moon with a powered descent, and used the last stage to return to Kerbin. If I had remembered to toss a parachute on, it would have been a success.
