Hi friends, I'm very excited with the KSP and it made me curious about the science around Space Missions. After google for while, I found this EdX course about a this subject which includes also orbital mechanics. I'm sharing just in case there is a curious like me out there! https://courses.edx.org/courses/course-v1:EPFLx+EE585x+2016_T1 Regards, Davi Garcia -
Hi all this course started today! come join me and learn about space, its Free! https://www.edx.org/course/conquest-space-space-exploration-rocket-uc3mx-bia-1x About this course Space exploration plays a major role in the history of humankind.
