Cooly568 Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 If your orbit can\'t get in kerbin\'s SOI, your stuck in orbit.You might need to launch a rocket around the sun to use landing gear legs to grab the ship and return to kerbin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cykyrios Posted May 12, 2012 Share Posted May 12, 2012 Can you imagine how LONG that would be without time-warp?Anyway, the best you can do is have your orbit intersect Kerbin\'s SOI, but even then, you\'ll need to have enough fuel to make it back in the atmosphere.However, timing your burn or waiting for your ship to get into Kerbin\'s SOI can be pretty long, so you may have to consider saying goodbye to those 3 Kerbals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentMcConnell Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Rest in Peace, your Kerbals. They will never be able to get back... To return, you\'d need to have enough fuel to drop your orbit to about the same as Kerbin\'s and then reverse it so you hit it head on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VincentMcConnell Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 That video was awesome! Whoever made that is a genius. I did see the 'Hidden Cut' at around 3:50 though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedDwarfIV Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 But... it didn\'t show the grab-ship\'s return.Did it make it?If not, you just swapped one capsule for another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kreuzung Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Saw the thread where the author posted it in, he ended the flight because it had no chute and therefore no chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
