Getting to the moon is the easy part. Getting back to Kerbin... that's the trick.

No, this actually _is_ rocket science, thank you very much.

Can't wait for the next ep and their rescue attempt. We all know how horrible it's going to be.

The slow burn of this series is what makes it fun to watch.

Looking at the orbit of the kerbal coming from the mun they basically have the intercept at the end of the martian happening. This should be interesting

It does have a day/night cycle, but it doesn't have an earthrise/earthset cycle for most of its surface.

Love the series but am astonished that between the three of them they don't know the moon does not have a day night cycle.

Basically a 1 month day/night cycle. The day/night cycle of the moon is the thing you're looking at in the sky at night.

They should have warped to the closer side of Kerbal and then continued with monoprop. Could have possibly made it home.

I know it's been said a bunch of times in the comments already, but man, the "previously on" and "next time on" segments of these videos are incredible. Gets me so excited to watch the episodes!

Awesome job with these videos, BEAST crew.

Quick tip,

If you want to ascend burn prograde at the priapus

if you want to descend burn retrograde at the apoapsis.

This is how you save the most fuel.

I thought this was true, anywhere else is inefficient it's a freebie on fuel savings.

I felt actual sadness for the poor kerbal stuck in space watching other kerbals fly all around the system, doing everything (including dying) but never heading towards him.

Poor, poor bastard.
