Outside the solar system

What happens when you travel past Eeloo and just keep going?

[Scarecrow88]

Exactly that - you just keep going.

Right now, you can achieve solar escape velocity, often by a slingshot by Eve or Moho usually coming down from Jool or Eeloo. After doing so, you simply drift off endlessly forever. That's it.

After doing so, you simply drift off endlessly forever. That's it.

So basically the same as in real life then?

In real life science soft journalism reports you've left the solar system every month for a decade.

They say that somewhere out there, the kraken lies dormant, waiting to ravage whatever hapless spacecraft crosses its path. None have ever actually seen it, but some have witnessed its gruesome after effects.

Of course, that could just be a rumor. In all likelihood, there's probably just nothing but empty space.

If you're on a Kerbol escape trajectory, you might as well enjoy your last view of the system, because you won't be seeing it again.

i tested this. instead of drifting off forever. all your manoeuvring capabilities fail and you just stay frozen in place.

you checked it wasn't just the probe losing control because it's too far for communication?
