Yesterday I started a new game with Principia. I tried to rendezvous two ships on low Mun orbit (Pe=Ap=15km) . Being new to Principia, I wasted a lot of fuel tweaking around and ended up finding that I had only 174m/s to go home. I found that if I put all of the delta-v into a prograde burn I would reach an unstable orbit, where there might be some ways to leave Mun. But I failed to find such ways.

Do those ways exist? Is there a minimal delta-v for this transfer? If there really is one, then what is it?
