A basic rocket for Mun or Minmus

[Scarecrow]

Here is a simple to fly rocket, principally aimed at newcomers to the game, for getting to Mun or Minmus and back.

The first stage is used to push your apo at Kerbin out of the atmosphere.  The second stage does most of the work thereafter.  It has enough fuel to complete the circularisation to LKO, perform the transfer burn to your target, perform the capture burn when you get there and finally make the de-orbit burn towards the surface before being jettisoned.  The final stage can complete the landing process and then get you back home when you are ready.

Pilot notes are included in the attached video, and the craft file can be downloaded from KerbalX

Not a lot of people make newbie rockets anymore. It's a nice thing to do.

I'd like to think that there are people still discovering this game for the first time and enjoyed the process of making something that was easily up to the task and didn't leave any debris in orbit anywhere.
