  1. Alot of helpful info here:) thanks alot guys, i wil go trough them all and hopefully i wil make it to the mun surface with all my kerbals alive by the end of this week:)
  2. Raise lower Pe? What is Pe? So i need to make a orbit around the mun between 15-20000m from the mun before actualy trying to land? Thats where i tend to sqrew up. Becouse i dont understand witch way to point the ship to make the orbit. I think i have tried every direction without making any change to my path as i can see. Turning my flight into a one way ticket around the sun. I guess prograde or retrograde meen toward the path and with the path of the mun.
  3. Im pretty new at this, but im starting to understand more and more of how things work. Quick runtrought of what i know how to do sofar. Build a rocket that works. Make it out in orbit around kerbal. Change the size of my orbit. Intercept the Mun orbit. Now to what i do not know how to do yet. How to actualy get into a path to land on the Mun. Everytime i get close, i dont have enogh fuel to slow down enough i think. Ending up in a orbit around the sun. Short overview of what i need to know. What direction do i need to come from? Towards the direction of the mun's orbit? Or the back folowing the mun's orbit. Wil the mun gravity pull me towards it? Is there any trick to get close without having to use so much fuel? I usualy end up running out, before i can actualy think about doing a landing. I tried adding more fuel tanks, but it gets to heavy, and i end up the same way either way. My basic rocket is as follows. Comandpod, decupler, advanced sas, 3liquid fuel, engine, decupler, 4 fueltanks, engine. Around the botom stage i added 6 long solid fuelboosters to get it off the ground. I know there is no way to land this rocket on the mun. But i want to learn how to get in the right path before i add the parts i need to make it land. Lets just call it a test mission:) And please, i do not know many technical terms yet, so to prevent a whole bunch of questions from me to figure out what every word meen, please keep it as simple as posible:)
