This article is a list of tutorials that will guide you through the finer points of the Kerbal Space Program.
Please note that these articles are user-created, and each user is responsible for their tutorial.
For a high-level overview of the basic game mechanics, you can read this Game Manual by thecoshman.
A less detailed "cheat sheet" type reference is available as Basic Maneuvers.

Recreation of historical spaceflights
The high level of realism in Kerbal Space Program allows to recreate historical missions of human spaceflight history. These missions start simple and become gradually more complex, so they are a great way to learn KSP.
- Sputnik 1 - first satellite in orbit
- Vostok 1 - first human spaceflight
- Gemini 6A and 7 - first orbital docking and an EVA
Planets and Moons
Mun
