Highest speed relative to Kerbin.

[Entroper]

Since the recent updates, I\'ve been mostly focused on Mun landings and supply deliveries. I decided to take one of my supply delivery ships and see what she could do if I strapped some engines to the orbiting fuel tanks. The results were impressive, but I know they can easily be exceeded.

The ship is attached below. With stock parts, she achieved a velocity of over 15 000 m/s relative to Kerbin, and over 22 000 m/s relative to Kerbol once she was out of Kerbin\'s sphere of influence. Her engines burned for over 40 minutes of mission time.

I expect you to do better.

In this post -- http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?topic=3008.msg107620#msg107620 -- I do my solar approach and landing.

http://kerbalspaceprogram.com/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3008.0;attach=13277;image shows me travelling 16,994.3 m/s in the opposite direction of Kerbin. Kerbin travels at 9,284.5 m/s around Kerbol, so my speed in this screenshot is 26,278.8 m/s relative to Kerbin.

Sort of a cop-out since it\'s not in Kerbin SOI when it happened, but it\'s technically true!
