Finally my last one, apologies for bad precision time warping in the video I go into the forum website I was just checking when to timewarp to. I forgot to pause screen rec before I checked. I look forward to joining team Frontier!

Badge granted. :) Welcome to Frontier.
I note that there's some things you can do more efficiently:
  • Not deploying the fairings quite so early (20-25km would be better)
  • Not swinging around with your second stage like that, a smooth trajectory is better. When I replicated your mission, I had 13% left in the second stage when I arrived to a 30.3x34km orbit, which looks like more fuel than you had.
  • You let your apoapsis get rather high, so you lost some Oberth effect when you did your interstellar burn.
