I am having trouble reading that. For anyone else struggling:
The real hero here
Spoken like someone that hasn’t played Kerbal.
It’s moving 1 km/s, though.
No worries, we will loop back around using a slingshot maneuver, keep going until we get where we want to be. :)
Oh my god I can still see the swear you tried to censor you satan worshipper! I’m so offended I dropped my body of christ into my tea!
The internet is for children ONLY, please take this FILTH back to your BBS, heathens!
I was promised some fucking filthIt’s ok. He then knew “hell” was literally the sun. Keep looking at it and you’ll “see” God too.
“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.
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
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
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
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.
Please don’t.
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
I bet I could miss those, too.
I could? I think you overestimate my power.
Aim for the ground, if you miss that, just give up
If you throw yourself at the ground and miss, you’re flying.
And the next night, try doing it again with Sony Walkmen.
Disagreed. If you miss, take advantage and continue missing
The moon takes up only around 0.00077% of the visible area of the sky. That’s a pretty small target.
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.
And begging your pardon sir, it’s a big ass sky.
I thought i was gonna have an easy time aiming for yo mama,
But the joke is on me cause i miss her.
Nice
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.
Yes you could have fucked this up more. You could have posted this censored bullshit on the Internet
