Hello! I'm new to the forums.

[Palkiajack]

I've been playing KSP for a while now. I have 160 hours to date. So, I just wanted to say hi. I've also been reading lots of forum posts, but I've finally gotten around to signing up. Usually I don't go to the "Newcomers" section, I just observe and comment until I understand it all, but I decided a long wall of text would be a good introduction. I've never made it outside Kerbin's SOI without cheats or debug, but I'd like to try. I get annoyed with my friend, who introduced me to KSP, because even though he has been playing longer than me, he has yet to get into orbit. On top of that, he's murdered Jeb at least 30 times. I had a career mode space race with my other friend. I was the first with a probe in space. So anyways, that's me.

tl;dr hi im new1

Hi and welcome to the forums! Enjoy your stay.

To get outside of Kerbin's SOI, either get thrown out by the Mun (do a Hohmann Transfer.) or

burn prograde once you've established an orbit around Kerbin until you see Kerbin Escape (Which means you

are escaping it's SOI).
