MUN

After a day and a half of failed orbits and crashes, I finally landed on the Mun! I beefed up the launch phase by adding two solid boosters and a beefier liquid rocket, then switched to a nuclear rocket for the transfer and slow down phase. Once I got to around 150-200km/s landing got very touchy due to the Mun’s very low gravity.

Space station in orbit!

I finally got a space station of some sort in orbit! Apparently less is more in this case as it becomes easier to lift. Now for the hard part…adding modules…
