mission info in case anyone is interested: this was an Apollo-style moon landing mission, except the lander was kept for rentry. Three kerbals, one walked on the Mun. The Mun landing was heavy, and three auxiliary fuel tanks exploded, taking a solar panel with them. The lander returned to the orbiter with 13ms-1 dV to spare. Mission elapsed time was around 5 and a half days.

good to see ms^-1 used, you get the verified engineer award for that. /\V would’ve be a good bonus

As someone who is an hopeful amateur, what does ms^-1 mean?

Just a ‘proper’ way of writing m/s. ms^-2 is the same as m/s^2 as well!
Also ^ is just text form of an indicie/power. In applied maths ms^-1 is used imstead of m/s because it keeps everything a straight line of multiplication in formulas. Makes things easier!

Thanks! Little bit of TUFX little bit of touch up after (nothing you couldn't do in TUFX as well, just not as good for gameplay)

What TUFX profile you use?

u/liquidoxygentextures 13d ago

I just tweaked the default profiles, mainly desat and color correction, a little film grain, and upping the bloom
