To get back to Kerbin the easiest way (as suggested by Scott Manley) is to burn prograde at the point in your orbit where you’re moving opposite to the direction the Mun is going in its orbit around Kerbin.
How close can you orbit the Mun KSP?
A normal 25 km orbit can be achieved using around 800 m/s delta V. A semi-synchronous orbit with half the rotation period of the Mun is possible at approximately 1797.41 kilometers.
How do you change orbits in Kerbal space program?
- Ascend to orbit. Ascend straight up until your speed is about 100 m/s.
- Change orbital shape. In general, burning prograde will make your orbit “larger” and burning retrograde will make it “smaller”.
- Match orbital inclination.
- Docking / rendezvous.

How do you control RCS in KSP?
The Reaction Control System, or RCS, is a set of monopropellant-fuelled (with the exception of the Vernor Engine) thrusters primarily intended for vessel orientation in a vacuum. It is toggled on and off by pressing the R key (default key binding).
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! 1 Why go to the Mun First?
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.
Which is the largest moon in the kerbol system?
Tylo is the largest moon of Jool and the Kerbol System, and the largest celestial body without an atmosphere. It is the analog for Ganymede. It is the third moon from Jool, is the same diameter as Kerbin, and is tidally locked. Tylo orbits Jool in roughly nine days.
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 .
