Comet redirect


Recommended Posts

First enable infinite fuel. Then using infinite fuel put a class E asteroid into a solar escape orbit which intercepts kerbin. Disable infinite fuel and capture the asteroid.

Rules;

No mods except information mods. No Debug menu apart from to adjust the initial orbit of the asteroid.

Scoring;

10000/ semi major axis (the average of periapsis and apoapsis) of the final orbit(it must be stable E.G outside the atmosphere)+

Velocity relative to kerbin just before transferring to kerbins SOI.

Evidence;

Screen shot of asteroid in the solar escape orbit, screen shot of just before kerbin intercept and screenshot of final orbit.

Good luck

Yeah, it would be nice if you would provide the death comet...

Also, if we hit it a few months or years out, we won't need infinite fuel, just tapping on it should be enough to send a 3000 tonne asteroid from intersecting Kerbin to intersecting space near it. The hard part will be getting there in there.

Oh... Wait, you want a capture... Ok, well I guess you could aerobrake it...
