hi there!
welcome to this challenge
this is a test to challenge yourself to the limits to launch yourself out the solar system in SFS without any thrusters!

Since you're not going to be using engines, ditch the fuel tanks and beginning to work on a mechanism to become a orbital cannon.
If you need any help making one:

ok, so basically the rules:
Cheats aren't allowed, but glitches are since you aren't going to be using thrusters.
video only, no photos
this isn't a rule, but you must follow it anyway: add a probe only for max speed
you cant go past 50 tons (excluding mechanism)
and that's it!
Not quite 50 tons but it worked

Most likely, though you will probably be in a different category than others, since your custom solar system could add a black hole orbiting earth to gravity assist off of.
