How do you get to the moon orbit in KSP?
If you want to reach the Mun on the first swing around, wait until Mun rises just above the horizon. A good rule of thumb is for each 100 km you are above Kerbin, wait another 2 seconds. Once it does, begin a forward burn, and keep an eye on your map, as the apoapsis moves out towards Munar orbit.
How far is the moon in Kerbal space program?
approximately 1797.41 kilometers
A semi-synchronous orbit with half the rotation period of the Mun is possible at approximately 1797.41 kilometers. There is a tutorial about traveling to the Mun.
How much delta v Do you need to orbit kerbin?
Reaching a stable orbit around Kerbin is one of the first milestones the player achieves in the game. Achieving such an orbit with a fuel-optimal ascent requires a delta-V of roughly 4500 m/s, the second largest of all celestial bodies with a solid surface after Eve.
How much Delta V does it take to get to the moon?
For example, although more fuel is needed to transfer a heavier communication satellite from low Earth orbit to geosynchronous orbit than for a lighter one, the delta-v required is the same….Earth–Moon space—low thrust.
| From | To | Delta-v (km/s) |
|---|---|---|
| Earth–Moon Lagrangian 1 (EML-1) | Low Lunar orbit (LLO) | 0.60–0.80 |
Does the moon have gravity?
1,62 m/s²
Moon/Gravity
Is the Kerbal Space Program a challenging game?
Kerbal Space Program can be a challenging game when you first start, especially if you know little about space. In this tutorial, I will explain in great detail and use simple language to help newcomers orbit their first moon in the game. I wish all newcomers good luck in exploring the Kerbol System!
How to quicksave Mun encounter in Kerbal Space Program?
When you get the encounter with the Mun, cut the throttle (X key) and quicksave the game using [ALT] + F5 and naming it “Mun Encounter”. Pro Tip: If you make a mistake, you can always resume from your last quicksave. Just press [ALT] + F9 and select the quicksave you want to load from.
Where does the planetary alignment occur in Kerbin orbit?
The Planetary Alignment does not really matter because you can access it from anywhere in Kerbin Orbit. If you want to go directly from your Orbital Insertion to your Mun Transfer, the Mun should be about 45 degrees to the west of the Launchpad .
Where to put landing struts on Kerbal Space Program?
Put a set of four LT-05 Micro Landing Struts as close to the bottom of the fuel tanks as possible. Just make sure they can touch the ground below the engine. If you want to gather science from the surface, put two SC-9001 Science Jrs on ether side with the science experiments on them.
