So after I wrap up my Mun missions I'm think of building a space station. This is kinda a two part question by the way. So first, if my space station (using solar panels) has Kerbin block the sun every so often then wouldn't I eventually run out of power until I come around again? I think batteries should solve that though. Also what is the best orbit for a space station LKO, MKO or Geostationary?

I have thought about MechJeb, I really wouldn't want to use it all the time just for more difficult things mainly I might get it when I become decent at stuff like rendezvous.

Wow this is amazing not just the mission but the writing and work put into it. Good job.

Yeah it seems to be but I'm getting closer for me that is, about 5km to 6km each attempt. Don't worry I will.

Thanks dshuck, great idea I was able to make there and back into orbit of kerbin and then I ran out of fuel and can't deorbit but I'm probably going to use it and practice rendezvous and docking with it in order to rescue them.

Thanks, yeah just tried orbital rendezvous and wasn't able to do it. I'm going to look into a good design for a lander and return vehicle and practice rendezvous and docking in LKO.

Hello, my name is Chris and I got the game about a week ago. I have successfully landed unmanned rovers on the Mun and am currently working on a manned mission. Any tips specifically for getting back, should I Apollo it with one half in orbit of the Mun and a lander or try and build a lander that can get me back?
