Is Minmus or Mun easier?

Is Minmus or Mun easier?

To sum up: Mun is easier to navigate.

How much delta-v Do you need to get back from the MUN?

Specifications. Recommended Delta-V: ~ 6,500 for Orbit and Return. ~ 7,500 for Landing and Return.

How do you get a Mun lander in KSP?

So just another stage below the lander of the same fuel tank with the same engine the Terrier. And then add two of the bigger fuel tanks with a swivel engine.

How do you use Mun in KSP?

If you want to reach the Mun on the first swing around, wait until Mun rises just above the horizon. A good rule of thumb is for each 100 km you are above Kerbin, wait another 2 seconds. Once it does, begin a forward burn, and keep an eye on your map, as the apoapsis moves out towards Munar orbit.

What is the highest point on Minmus?

Info

Does Minmus have an atmosphere?

Nope. No and it also has lower gravity than Mun so you don’t need as many fuel. FYI Only planets have atmospheres, moons never have atmosphere, except for 1 moon (Laythe). Laythe is only the only other body next to kerbin which has oxigen in the air so jet engines work there.

What is the highest point on the Mun?

7062 m

The Mun’s highest points reach a maximum altitude of 7062 m and are located near the poles. The highest point within 45° latitude of the equator has an altitude of ~6120m and is located at 129.64° W, 0.97° N, on the north side of a canyon which is on the east edge of a large crater.

Is the Mun tidally locked?

The Mun’s orbit keeps it directly above Kerbin’s equator. Because the Mun is tidally locked to Kerbin with a perfectly circular, non-inclined orbit, exactly 50% of the Mun’s surface (excluding areas on the edge obscured by the Mun’s mountains) is ever visible from Kerbin.

How much delta v Do you need to orbit kerbin?

roughly 4500 m/s
Reaching a stable orbit around Kerbin is one of the first milestones the player achieves in the game. Achieving such an orbit with a fuel-optimal ascent requires a delta-V of roughly 4500 m/s, the second largest of all celestial bodies with a solid surface after Eve.

What is the lowest possible Mun orbit?

Its lowest point, at altitude 0 m, is also on the east side of a large crater, at 35.42° E, 8.27° N.

How much gravity does the MUN have?

1.63 m/s2

How long is a day on Minmus?

Does Minmus have an atmosphere KSP?

Is the Mun tidally locked KSP?

Does Mun rotate KSP?

Observation of Kerbin
Kerbin is not tidally locked to the Mun, so any point on the Mun where Kerbin is not obscured by the Mun’s landscape will be able to observe every point on Kerbin as Kerbin rotates. Kerbin’s synodic rotational period with the Mun is 25617.909 seconds, or 1.18323 Kerbin solar days.

How small is kerbin compared to Earth?

Kerbin is about 10.9 times smaller than Planet Earth. It does seem equally appropriate, however, because our Kerbals are very small creatures. Another thing that I never put too much thought into was the size of the capsules and rockets we get as stock with the game… They have a diameter of only one meter.

Can you land on JOOL?

Jool has no solid surface to land on; descending spacecraft will explode when they reach the altitude of -250 m.

How close can I orbit the MUN?

A normal 25 km orbit can be achieved using around 800 m/s delta V. A semi-synchronous orbit with half the rotation period of the Mun is possible at approximately 1797.41 kilometers.

How many planets are in KSP?

seven planets
The Kerbol System consists of seven planets that may be orbited by moons and/or asteroids. Each of these bodies exhibits its own characteristics like gravity, atmosphere, size, orbital inclination, and orbital period.

How long is a day on the Mun?

How long is a year on kerbin?

Kerbin calendar
A solar Kerbin day is 6 hours long, the Mun has an orbital period of 38.6 hours which defines a Kerbin month, and Kerbin has an orbital period of 2556.5 hours which defines a Kerbin year.

How many days is a Kerbal year?

A Kerbin day lasts 6 hours and during one orbit around Kerbol, Kerbin rotates about its axis over 426 times, thus a Kerbin year is about 426 days and 32 minutes long.

Does NASA use Kerbal Space Program?

After a decade, the space community remains big fans of the game from Private Division. NASA used Kerbal to educate a new audience about SpaceX’s Crew Dragon flights in 2020, following six years of periodic collaborations.

What is the easiest planet to land on KSP?

Duna is often the easiest planet to achieve encounters because of a low orbital inclination.

What is the biggest planet in KSP?

Jool
Jool is the sixth planet from Kerbol. It is the largest planet in the Kerbol system, it has 5 moons: Laythe, Vall, Tylo, Bop, and Pol.
