To Eve and Beyond!!!


Recommended Posts

Well..i hope anyways.

I can make the Mun and Minmus and land on both but when it comes to hitting the other planets its been more of a crap shoot.

I know there are mods that can help..ie mechJeb and protractor

But is there a way in game to set a course to say jool ..or when the launch widow to Duna is open for instanc3e..i have made it to eve and duna..but was mostley luck.

Any help?

If you're headed to the inner planets, Moho, Eve, you want to eject from Kerban going retrograde in relation to Kerban's orbital path around the sun. To get to the outer planets, you want to eject going in prograde in relation to Kerban's solar orbit. Think of Kerban's orbit as your orbit and Kerban itself as your periapsis. Burning prograde grows the orbit out and retrograde makes it go in.

Also a lightweight craft like this one can eject from the solar system and go to any planet and land, but it's a one way ticket if you decide to land on anything with atmosphere, and maybe Moho would be hard to get away from.

Here is the vessel doing an orbital burn around Jool.
