Kinkajou Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Hello everybody, I\'m Kinkajou. I\'ve been playing KSP since January 5th, 2012 when I first noticed it. So far most of my launches are either go really high and then land/crash, or they are go 1km up then explode.However today I achieved a stable orbit. I had gotten into an orbit last night, however it was unstable and deteriorated after the first pass, also my cat flopped on my keyboard and jettisoned my RCS shortly after the orbit was confirmed, so thankfully it was unstable. I\'ve been fiddling with my crafts and finally got into space and have so far been there for over 6 game hours (10x time warp). I\'m unsure if the Kermin brothers will be able to return home as I have less than 25% of my fuel left for my last engine, but I thought I would share the stats of my orbit with you fine folks:Periapsis: 106,847 mApoapsis: 165,878 mVelocity at Pe: 2279.22 m/sVelocity at Ap: 2103.55 m/sEccentricity: 0.04Orbital Period: 35 minutes, 13.01 secondsAnd for the curious, the unstable orbit, my Periapsis was at around 60km, I was just hoping to have more than one pass at the planet.
