You attempt to power your craft with copious amounts of dubstep. You accidentally call Laythe "Lathe" in a letter to your parents, and they assume a horrible fate has befallen you.

You imagine six impossible things before breakfast. You match your target orbit, only to find that you're going in the wrong direction.

Speaking of matching orbits wrong, returning from the Mun, I matched orbits to get an intercept in LKO but once I actually left the Mun's SOI, the intercept was gone and Pe was like 4 days later. Is this a side-effect of patched conics?
<funkenstein>
not sure about the conics or what those are but it happens to me all the time
<funkenstein>
I just eyeball a lil puff of dv and it fixes itself
<Izaya>
it was way out, wrong side of the orbit even
<Izaya>
I'd planned for an intercept in like 1 day but the time I'd actually be there is in 5 days
<funkenstein>
wow
<funkenstein>
that only ever happens with minmus for me
<SporkWitch>
increasing the count for patched conics can give more accurate results, but there's still a margin of error when you change SOI (and yes, this is one of the flaws of patched conics; it's an approximation technique, though more accurate in KSP than IRL, since the SOIs are "real" in KSP).
<SporkWitch>
As mentioned, though, it usually just takes apuff of RCS to correct after the SOI change, assuming you had a decent itercept in the first place

You ask a model rocketeer to send a compass up in that rocket of theirs. Not even Scott Manley can save you now.

I guess there technically could be an ongoing one between some zoroastrians and some hindus

if I can bring extra EVA fuel I should be able to bring extra flags to plant.
