I put docking ports upside-down all the time. "Why the hell won't they snap together?!?! Oh, crap. Looks like you're going EVA to get into the station there Jeb and I'll be crashing your shuttle into the surface as it was never designed for re-entry."

It is about 6-times faster than the fastest man made object to date, the Helios 2 probe. But on a cosmic scale it might as well be standing still.

My son commented "That's near the speed of light!" I had to break it to him that it wasn't even close. At the point of the screen shot the probe is right about one light-day out of the system if my math is right.

434 kilometers per second, just shy of 1million MPH on my way out of the solar system towards parts unknown. The probe survived the explosion of a gigantic rocket about 30k meters above Kerbin and was catapulted right out of the solar system. While laughing my ass off at this and speeding up time to see just how far it was going to go my entire huge masterpiece space station crashed to the ground without me noticing. I went back to the space center and it was nowhere to be found. What I get for warping at 10,000 and 100,000 I guess. There went about a dozen launches, hours of game play, and 10 or so Kerbonauts. Still worth it.
