Blast! Thanks.

So I sent a lander/command module to minmus. (First time on minmus with recovery to kerbin!) Before I shed the LM for return to kerbin, is there any way to transfer the science over to the CM? I don't want to have to transmit all the lander's data, thanks to transmission losses. I don't see any way to do it, but maybe someone has figured something out? Thanks!

I would have done it, but I was on my way out the door.

Something goes wrong, inevitably.

Make a rocket with known mass. Add decouplers, note the addition of mass. Launch, and blast off the decouplers, note the total mass. A little math, and you have your answer. So basically...I don't know off the top of my head, but at least it's easy to find out.

Fantastic, thanks!

I was watching a video the other day before my internet cut out, in which the narrator explained that one can change where the point of view is when you interact with another orbital body, like when you are going to be captured by the mun. He showed a way in which the interaction was projected onto where the orbital body currently is, so one can easily fine-tune the orbit, as opposed to where it will be, which doesn't let you focus on the target body and adjust. Thanks in advance!
