That’s why in KSP I use the space map and just keep adding DeltaV until the orbit line from my rocket to the mun is a straight line and I launch when the planet is right in front of me.
Jacks why so aggressive. Need a sabbatical?
that’s fucked
I am having trouble reading that. For anyone else struggling:
The real hero here
“If you miss, you end up among the stars.”
OH DEAR LORD WE ARE OUT OF FUEL AND OXYGEN IT’S SO COLD SO COLD
Don’t panic. Shut everything down. Call the Fuel Rats.

Only had to do it for that once… They were awesome, saved my Cutter that I forgot I’d removed the fuel scoop from.

What in the heck are yall talking about?!
“Among the stars” might suggest it’s very much not cold. You’re in a stellar nursery.
I had a manager tells me this once. It was literally written on the mug he was drinking out of at the time. I remember feeling so valued and inspired.
You could fit every planet in the Solar System between Earth and our moon simultaneously.
I have a feeling we would have a lot of problems if you did though.
It’s definitely not recommended by the few cosmology sources I’ve read.
Cosmology sources, sure, but have you checked any cosplay sources?
That’s it. I am going as a gravity well this year.
I will wear plain clothes and go up to the person in my social circle most likely to ‘get it’.
I will hug them, not let go while I explain the idea in their ear. We have to go everywhere together that evening with the explicit purpose of recruiting others in that mission. There is no leader of a gravity well, except the center of mass. Which means things might get goofy.
If I can’t convince anyone to play, I will take that big tiddy goth girl and her friends up on their offer to play xbox.
Fuck you for making me look this up. Only Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune would fit together. Venus, Mars, and Mercury are too much.
Depends on which part of the orbit. Perigee (closest point) is ~ 354,491 km surface to surface. Apogee (farthest point) is ~ 397,291 km surface to surface. At Apogee you could got them all. At perigee not at all.
I think our oceans would leave earth, tide-wise speaking
Please don’t.
I bet I could miss those, too.
I could? I think you overestimate my power.
Anyone who has played KSP knows that getting to the Mun is harder than it seems.
Orbital mechanics are a bitch.
Getting to the Mun was actually pretty easy for me (or I got lucky). Landing on the Mun/surviving is a whole different story.
And don’t even get me started on getting back from the Mun,
whenif you do survive the landing.Sorry Jebediah, that was a one-way trip.
Dammit I just bought control now I want to strand some kermen
Make sure to lead your shot. At Apollo velocities, you’ll need to aim where the moon will be at in three days, not where it is right now.
Why limit yourself to Apollo velocities? We’re trying to shoot the moon, not land in it.
Make sure you lead and aim for where the moon will be in 1 second
The moon takes up only around 0.00077% of the visible area of the sky. That’s a pretty small target. A deviation of .52 degrees from any point on the moon you are aiming from earth will miss.
Also it moves at 1 km/s around its orbit
So you have almost an hour before it passes you. Easy mode.
I’ma roll coal at that speeder motherfuck. Slow the shitass down.
It is slowing down, it loses energy to the tides
So the moon has been eating tide pods, huh? My how the pudding thickens
And begging your pardon sir, it’s a big ass sky.
That’s like the pasties of censorship lol
Ya but the moon covers at best only about 10 ppm of the sky’s area so given a random direction within the hemisphere defined by the sky in which the moon is visible and traveling in a straight line you have a roughly 99.9990% chance of missing so that’s understandable really.
Don’t get me started about inclinations
Spoken like someone that hasn’t played Kerbal.
Who are these people who cross out two letters of a cussword worried about? Everyone can still read this and all it does is make the edit look like someone is a pearl clutcher.
It’s typically for posting to platforms that “deprioritise” posts that contain “naughty” words, not actually anything about humans caring about it.
What do you mean? What cuss word? What does it say?!?
Butthole. It says butthole.
Same reason that people bleep out two nanoseconds of the word in audio
farked?
Forked?
I understood that reference.
You forking would like that kind of bullshirt, you bench-ash deck.
I really hope we’re doing a “The Good Place” bit here, otherwise, I apologize profusely.
Edit: Make grammar gooder
f⸤▬こked
Actually it makes more sense to state the moons solid angle in the sky from where I’m standing, instead of its diameter ☝️🤓
Hold me and never let me go, you insatiable nerd.
Yes you could have fucked this up more. You could have posted this censored bullshit on the Internet
I thought i was gonna have an easy time aiming for yo mama,
But the joke is on me cause i miss her.
Nice
