Hi, I don't know if this tutorial is finished, but isn't it better to burn prograde when you are between Mün an Kerbin like here? —XZise (talk) 11:01, 27 February 2013 (CST)

Hello XZise. Thank you for your interest in my tutorials. That actually depends on if you ended up on a prograde or a retrograde orbit around the Mün. When you are retrograde, it's best to accelerate at the most distant point, while when you are prograde, the most energy-efficient point is the point where you are closest. I should mention that. --Crush (talk) 16:05, 27 February 2013 (CST)
