Lowest Orbits

[ramses]

Just wondering what are the lowest possible orbits for Mun and Minmus ?

Providing you dodge the topology, there\'s no lower limit really. Under 2km on the Mun and you risk hitting a peak..

I have a ~5km orbit on the Mun at the moment, probably could get it about to about 3.5km.

As for Minumus, I\'m not sure what the maximum height of any peak is, I imagine it\'s just under about 2km though.

Minmus\' highest regions are over 5.7 km in altitude. I\'ve got an object in a 5.3 km orbit with an inclination of less than 1 degree, and at least once per orbit, it gets within 700m of the surface.

Cheers fella\'s! ;D
