Ambition Circular Habitat

PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION OF THE AMBITION STATION FIRST

Launch Instructions:

Throttle up to about 90% between 0-16000m, begin gravity turn at around 2000m, keep rocket heading at 70 degrees until apoapsis hits 100,000m. Create a maneuver at the apoapsis bringing the periapsis up to 100,000m as well, giving a perfectly circular orbit. Set the station (which is at 200,000m) as a target and play around with a maneuver until your ascending and descending nodes are 0.0 degrees. Next, create a maneuver burning at prograde raising the apoapsis to 200,000m. Move the maneuver around the path of the orbit (click and drag the center circle) until you get an intercept bringing you and the station within 15,000m. Once you are within 15,000m of the target, change your navball speed mode to 'target' by clicking it. It should be close to (I think) 70-150 m/s. If it is close to 2,000m/s, you are in the wrong mode. Burn at periapsis until your speed is 0 relative to the target. Burn at the 'target' marker on the navball (pink target-looking thing) to move closer to the target. (Don't go past 15 m/s using the engine, 5 m/s using RCS) Docking is too complex to explain in writing, I recommend watching a tutorial on youtube. Dock the module to its respective docking port and you are done!

Specific to this vessel:
The launch vehicle CAN tip if you move too far from your prograde in the atmosphere, but the risk of it tipping is very small.
