Loaded the quicksave:
Did a not very efficient transfer burn to Venus:
I redid the Venus GA to lower my periapsis to almost exactly mercury level, but I forgot to screenshot it, so here's the first Venus encounter:
My first mercury encounter/GA:
Aaannnd a bunch more:
For this one, I combine the Oberth effect and a GA to lower my orbit to mercury level, then burned until I had a semi-orbit like path:
After that horrific little near-orbit, I burned at apoapsis to get about 10m/s, to make passable orbit, then did a long burn at periapsis to descend, finally landing!
1.93% isn't too bad (I think), but it isn't the space stig. I guess if this is good then I'm in Hawk!
