[12:43:17] just a little past mun orbit, 35 deg or so inclination.. ya know, just to make things interesting [12:43:22] at least it is not the typical i can do this, then when you get into orbit you realize the target is in retrograde :) [12:45:27] eh... well this time not retro grade... [12:45:50] though... wonder how hard would be to sling around mun [12:46:22] peh.. maybe not. launch now..
