Difficulty achieving designated orbit

[wedesoft]

I am trying to fulfill a contract to position a satellite in a polar orbit. As my screenshots show, the numbers are matching exactly but still the contract is not accepted.

Any ideas what the problem is?

Kind regards

Howdy. The most common problem is that you're matching the orbit but going the wrong way. I can't tell from the picture if that's the case here, though. 

Meanwhile, your question has been moved to the KSP1 subforums.

Ok, thanks. Sorry, I didn't see that there are subforums.

I would have thought that the ascending node is 222.2 - 180 degrees if the orbit is the other way around?

The second picture shows LAN and Inclination in the lower left corner.

it says "reach the orbit around Minmus".

You are still around kerbin.

it's easier to match those orbits if you check on map view where they are

Thanks a lot :facepalm:

Ok, managed to put the satellite into a correct orbit around the correct body :-D

Congratulations.
