22 sty 2023 · When you are ready, just start burning prograde until you get an orbit around Kerbin and an escape trajectory from the Mun. An easier way to do this is to just burn upwards from launch sending you straghit up to an escape trajectory (about 2,000km).
The mun is in a kerbin orbit, so to get to the mun you need to adjust your orbit to be 1. At the same altitude above Kerbin as the mun's orbit. 2 be in sync with the mun. If you only do 1 then you end up in an orbit where you never get to the mun because you keep being 15° ahead of the mun.
16 lip 2013 · When you want a really elegant mun mission, learn docking and do an apollo-style mission with a detachable lander. That way you can keep the fuel for the return trip in mun orbit, so you don't need to land it and bring it back up....or just add more stages below your existing rocket.
4 lip 2024 · Mun, also known as the Mun and sometimes written as Mün, is a relatively large moon orbiting Kerbin. It can be thought of as an analogue to Earth's own moon, which frequently is simply called “ the Moon ” (Latin: Luna ).
Best way to do it, is to plan the exit in the opposite direction as the moon itself is orbiting. After that you can set your PE between 30 and 70k (i recommend about 40k to be safe, but it also depends on the vessel), so that you can airbrake and land on kerbin.
I can escape the mun with 1 delta V left but that leaves me in an orbit with a periapsis of 13,000,000m. I will try controlling thurst so that i'm continuously burning at my apoapsis while escaping, then report back.
9 lip 2024 · Perform a Trans-Kerbin Injection (TKI) to escape the Mun's gravity. Upon reentry into Kerbin's SOI, burn retrograde at apoapsis. Use atmospheric braking to slow down and prepare for reentry.
