So Wavefunction, I just checked out your Interstellar videos. Yes I was still there, yes it was worth my time, can I have some more please? Oh and thank you.

Awesome, downloading now. Thanks for taking up my request. EDIT: After tinkering with it for a bit I didn't notice any bugs yet.

Thank you, that was the issue. Its fixed now.

So quick question, using RPM and this I can't seem to figure out how to go back to the previous menu on the same screen. I've hit all the buttons and on the monitor everything works correctly aside from finding a way to go back to the previous menu. Did I install something incorrectly or am I missing something?

.22 is the reason I'm doing this. I want to get at least a little better before then to make the new science system easier.

The point of this little plan of mine is one crew using the same set of ships that it brought along for all the celestial bodies. No staging past getting off Kerbin allowed. Partly to challenge myself and to help myself get better at the game because I am far from being good at it. Phase angles makes my brain hurt for example. The sliding on Minmus is a good thing to note. Maybe potential for a Kerbal amusement park, complete with Minmus slide of doom? I just tested a simple small space plane with Ion Engines. No luck. Another thing to note is I was testing my Ion powered satellite last night and it had 4 of the big solar panels on it. Forgetting to make it fancy I decided to deorbit it for kicks. I had MechJeb keep the satellite pointed retrograde while I burned and went and made popcorn. I came back with the satellite around 20k above the surface. Those 4 solar panels made it to the ground in one piece. I can only assume with my limited knowledge that because the panels were not side ways that they were able to stay in one piece for the decent.

So I had this idea that I turned into a plan. Put a probe on the surface to test landing gravity, a Satellite with a Kethane scanner into a 90 degree orbit for obvious reasons and you can never have enough satellites. After that a rover for exploring. All that on every planet and moon where possible. Then the next stage of the mission create a main ship to fly to each planet and moon. On that ship will be a Kethane mining vessel to go to a near by moon or planet(if reasonable) get some Kethane and refuel the main ship. Then a landing pod to land a kerbal or more on the surface of all the moons and planets to plant a flag. This presents the challenge fly planets like Eve with high gravity, lots of atmosphere or both where landing and returning requires insane amounts of delta v. So I thought about using a ion powered space plane for these planets to get a kerbal down and back. So now to my questions. Does Gilly have Kethane? Simple question but I haven't been anywhere but kerbins moons and Moho. I put a rover on Minmus already however due to the low gravity I only managed to get the thing to dance on one wheel. While amusing it wasn't what I was expecting. So anyone have any tips for fixing this? I was using the brown aircraft wheels so maybe that was the issue? Next ion powered space plane for Eve and such? Good, bad of maybe? Finally for those of you who have been to the magic boulder. Should I try this mission to include it? I assume it can't be mined or orbited easily but landing on it? Should I just try and go from where I end up? I'm sure some of my questions could be solved with Google. However I'm looking for answers along with the useful tidbits that come with more experience if anyone has any to share so I stated the question anyway.
