Interplanetary Transfers

[Her Imperial Majesty]

I think I can now land without destroying anything serious, so I would like to go interplanetary - what is the best way for an efficient and quick transfer to Mars or Venes?

I would start out using a Hohmann Transfer orbit: http://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Tutorial:_Advanced_Orbiting#Hohmann_transfer

Also, check out these tools (useful for calculating transfer windows and delta-v):

Hope this helps. Happy landings!

As a rough visual estimate. if Kerbin is at the 6 o'clock position you want Duna at about 4.30 and Eve at about 7.30.

Alexmoon transfer planer is probably the best way to go. Just enter the data and follow the instructions.

Considering you just joined the forums, I guess you mean Eve and Duna instead of Venus and Mars. Then just follow what has been said above.

In the unlikely possibility you're playing with RSS, the website won't give you indications for real planets. You'll need to use the Transfer Window Planner mod that will give you windows for modded planets, if any. Anyway, you should consider using this mod even with stock KSP as it can give you transfer windows IG.
