Unannounced Jool encounters (have video)


Recommended Posts

I have a craft coming back from Jool; i tried to make sure it would not get an encounter with the planet after leaving it, and its trajectory looked good. I then did my kerbin burn, but once i hit my apo around the sun, im suddenly back in Jool's gravity well.. I have a video of it here

Why does this happen? also, I planned to have only enough d/v to get the craft in an albeit eliptical orbit around kerbin, and with this unexpected encounter, it doesn't look like thats going to happen now which is kinda grinding my gears. any suggestions appriciated
