I\'ve been launching immediately, then pitching over to around 50-40 degrees at 20km.

Here\'s my first attempt. Thought I had the trajectory dialed in, missed it by a fraction of a degree, ended up doing a sub 5km flyby http://imgur.com/a/q1naI#0

The truly amazing thing, (which I realized while watching the NASA animation) is that the whole concept had to have seemed like complete science fiction at the time. Star wars wouldn\'t be released for another 15 years! Then we did it. Now we make computer games where we simulate it for fun. GG mankind, GG.

Here\'s the prototype for my extra-long loiter U2-esque recon/IMINT craft I need to put on another pot of coffee to get truly creative, haha! Forgot to turn off the jaggies for the screenshot, next iteration will have prettier photos.

I've been working on this for 48 hours... Almost had it once, I managed to land an entire 3 stage rocket on the dark side. Then I fat fingered the launch and jettisoned the bottom stage at 700m : /

Greetings all! I discovered KSP due to a random comment on Reddit a few days ago, and after 10 minutes, had to pre-order. Not much to say about myself other than when I was in the Air Force, my job was to spy on Russian road-mobile ICBMs. Rockets are awesome, and I've quickly become hooked on KSP. I look forward to the future of this community! I'm pretty rusty when it comes to modeling and texturing, but my newest hobby is music, so if you want some free soundtrack work, give me a shout! And now I shall return to my attempt to put Mun in orbit, and hopefully break 25km in my dual BFE-5000 rig... Here's my new favorite project, I call it the Noisy Cricket. Jeb just calls it Sir. 3x EV with plenty o' fuel left
