Map Moho

[1of6Billion]

Finally got into an (polar) orbit around Moho. I want to map it's surface with the ISAMapSat. However, it seems the planet does not rotate.

Is there an orbit that will map the whole surface automatically?

Or do I have to lower the inclination manually myself every orbit

Its rotate, but very slowly, u can wait a realy long time or change inclination every some orbits, i personaly do something between this.

Aye. Moho's tide-locked to the sun, so it rotates on its axis once every 25 days or so.

The ISA Mapping Plugin can map at 50x time accelleration. At that speed , you can map the surface in a polar orbit in about 12 hours. When I mapped Moho, I did that and let the game run overnight.

Burn normal to change your heading by 5° every time you pass over the north pole. I did this to map Minmus which has a similar problem.

OK, so given enough time, it will get mapped? Great! I'll do that, thanks
