I made my first interplanetary landing on Gilly, 148 hours in.


how
i cant even get a good orbit on kerbin

i cant even get a good orbit on kerbin

I usually burn upwards and on a gravity turn until apoapsis gets around 100k meters, then I make a maneuver node for a circular orbit to finish.

i can get to the mun and minmus fine, but anything outside of kerbin's orbit i cannot get to whatsoever

there's a website for this but i can't remember its name

I got a probe past duna once so far

landing on the mun in like 30 minutes or so

that totally helps

The Herbal Telescope, taking pictures of Kerbal.

(You can see a tiny rocket in the bottom right)

I used a docking port as an actual camera on my telescope

i use the camera mod

Inside the tunnel at the end is a large kethane scanner.
Next time I get a chance, I'll take a picture of the other end.

Kerbal.
Don't you mean Kerbin, or are you from an alternate universe?

I just noticed that, I got the names of the people mixed up with the planet.

for all those people complaining about being unable to get to other planets: it's essentially inherently designed that you can't escape Kerbal SoI and make any meaningful rendezvous with other bodies WITHOUT USING A DOCKING SYSTEM. please for the love of christ start assembling larger ships in orbit or otherwise it will be nearly impossible to escape Kerbal SoI.

Kerbin you mean.

Also, the only planets that usually require some sort of docking system to get to are Eeloo or Moho just because of the horrible amount of fuel needed.
I can easily get to Eve on a 3 stage rocket.
