    Capturing at Jupiter

    I launched a 1- or 2-landing mission to the Jupiter system. I used a Venus-Earth gravity assist because I didn't need to do another Earth assist. When I got to Jupiter, I flew by Ganymede, but it did not help. How would one properly use Ganymede to capture in the Jupiter system?

    Solved (SFS) Modifications

    I have downloaded several modifications, however only these appear in my game. Why is this and how can it be solved?

    Approved Hawk Mercury Mission

    It's been done. Landing from about 300 m above terrain and Mission Log: As seen in the video, I am bad at landing without landing legs.

    Approved Hawk Jupiter Mission

    I messed up several times on this. I completely forgot a heat shield and parachute and so had to do that second launch. The lander ship is left in Jupiter orbit.

    Approved Frontier Voyager Quest submission

    I do not want to put the images within the text because then it becomes extremely large and unwieldy to scroll past. The instructions say to show flight log, but when I checked the flight log (reason I separated the 2nd stage), it didn't have anything about escaping the Sun. Rocket based on the...

    Approved Frontier Mars Landing submission

    I switched back to classic. Also, I figured out a way to access the flight log: separating the heat shield after landing. This rocket: Bellona-A (Nemesis-R, Enyo-R). I used powered descent for Mars entry.

    Approved Frontier Space Station submission

    I've switched to hard mode. These rockets are the Station-C (Flights 1, 2, 3, 4, 6; Station-1 Merope-1) and Station-D (Flight 5; Station-2 Merope-2). This took much longer than it should've, probably because I launched the escape craft fully fueled instead of putting that for a initial supply...

    Rank question thing

    Is it allowed to do missions from later ranks prior to unlocking the previous rank? I want to do a Mercury mission but I haven't done Team Frontier yet. Can I get the necessary screenshots and then post them later after I complete Team Frontier?

    Things under names

    How is this done? I put some things in the "About you:" section of account details because I thought it would appear as in the screenshot. To be clear, I am not referring to the badges, but the "ITSA // Ex-MA" in this example.

    Precision non-atmospheric landing

    First of all, I've moved to this part of the forums because it seems more appropriate. I've tried to this a lot and it is never very good. Are there any pointers? I tend to deorbit at a 45° angle from my landing site. I would use this for the Moon and moons of Jupiter.

    Fuel consumption formula

    I've been trying to calculate this for a while, but I can't do it. Here's my process: Thrust = 100,000 kgf = 980.665 kN Isp = 240 s g0 = 9.80665 m/s² Wikipedia tells me that Isp in seconds is by weight and for that the thrust-specific fuel consumption is 101,972/Isp to get it in g/kN*s. If I do...
