Contents
Specifications
- Length: 5-10 minutes
- Difficulty: Moderate
- For version: 0.13 and above
Steps
Step 1 - Getting the addon
Get the The Intrepid SLS Rocket from [[1]], or a number of other modded parts to make your journey easier.
Suggested parts to find include:
- Larger Solid Rocket Boosters
- Lunar Landing Module (LEM/LM)
- Larger Liquid fuel tanks
Step 2 - Launch the rocket normally
Fly up to about 15,000 Metres vertically. At this point, begin "the tilt" East or West. Once about about 65-70,000m, you are out of the atmosphere and can transfer your upwards energy into east-west speed.
Step 3 - Go to the Mun
Difficult on first glance, a rule of thumb will help you get there.
- Wait for Mun-rise to finish from an approx. 100,000m orbit
- Burn to raise your apoapsis to between 11.5 and 12.5 million.
- Get captured by the Mun's gravity.
Step 4 - Land on the moon
