Here is a tip, try to start on a simplistic design, test different variables of it, and when you finally get into orbit, but can't exactly get to the moon, just add more fuel, and you might just get there. Also, welcome to the KSP forums.
I go by the name ElectricCake, the reason why I chose it is because I love electricity, and I love cake. I spotted this game on sale on steam and decided to pick it up. I was holding off on buying it, but after I tried it, it was love at first sight. I hope the developers go very far with this game, and I personally would love to see what they will add in the future.
