Challenge: The (almost) dark side of Kearth

[Samo]

The challenge is simple, land as close to the dark side of Kearth as possible without blowing up.

Kinda dumb challenge, you can go over the 90 degree mark from the KSC, and still see the sun.

Fail bro...

[Samo]

And that changes things how?

It's not so much about how far you're able to go into the dark side, more so how far you can actually get into the dark side.

[Tim_Barrett]

So you really want the community to try and get as far to 90 degrees without any idea of the current accurate position they are at?

[Samo]

No...it's a simple little challenge to see how far into the dark side they can manage to land without blowing up. Not how far we know you can go, how far you yourself can land safely.

Forget the sun.

I'm lookin' at the stars, baby.

[Link Hogthrob]

Bob seems to be quite frightened by all those stars.

It's not that hard. KSC is on the navball and it's got markings in degrees. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out where 90° from KSC is.
