Hope this one goes differently to my landings in Kerbal Space Program.
From the wiki I read that this is a part of the Artemis program, but the connection seems unclear to me. Could anybody explain, will this be used to deliver just cargo or will it have people aboard sometime in the future?
After figuring out how to do most things successfully in Kerbal space program, a fun challenge is to install the "real solar system" mod which scales the delta v require for low orbit, and size of the solar system , up to approximately the same as reality. Delta v to orbit in stock KSP is like 2300-2500 if I remember right, in RSS it's 7800-8200. Everything else is also correspondingly more difficult like delta v require to get from a 35 degree inclined low earth orbit into a mars transfer orbit (even assuming 100% aero braking at mars and little or no fuel used at arrival)
Main goal is to deliver some NASA science gear to the Moon, I think some of it is supposed to test things directly related to issues Artemis may have as far as lunar operations go. There’s a limited amount of info available about the science on their website- https://fireflyspace.com/missions/blue-ghost-mission-1/
You know, everyone’s obsessed with training and knowledge and practice, but it’s so much more satisfying to do something amazing by just flipping switches and pushing buttons at random.
I’m something of an expert in lunar landings myself, having years of experience in Space Engineers.
In my opinion, the most effective strategy is to fly full speed at the moon, crashing headlong into it before it realizes you’re there and can run away.
