The Mun, (also known as Mün), is the first moon orbiting Kerbin. Here the really thin air fades Into interplanetary space.

The exosphere is located between 50 km And 100 km, but at 70 km space begins. A Normal Reentry (~2300 M/s) Begins At ~48-50 Km. It Is Located Between 20,000 M And 50 Km. This Layer Is Called So Because Air Particles Are Heated By Kerbol, But Reentry Heat Is Caused By The Friction Of The Spaceship With The Air. This Is The Ideal Layer To Deploy Your Drogue Chute. An Ozone Layer Protects Kerbin From Deadly Uv Rays. Here, You Can Easily Break The Sound Barrier Without Any Real Damage But An Aero-brake Still Persists. This is the ideal layer to deploy your Main Chute.īetween 12,000 M And 18,000 M There Is The Stratosphere. Here, all of Kerbin's life is located, with the air being thick enough to create heat when breaking the sound barrier. This layer stretches between sea level and 12,000 M. The first two layers are mostly made of normal air (Nitrogen, Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide, Ozone), the third of molecular Oxygen (O) and the fourth of Helium and Hydrogen. It fades to outer space at about 100 Km (but Kerbals set a limit to 70 Km), and is divided into 4 Layers. The atmosphere is similar to Earth's (1 Atm Or Roughly 101 Kpa), so it is suitable for an Aero-brake. It is located almost on the equator, making it much easier to achieve an orbit parallel to Kerbin's orbital plane, as well as the Mun's. The Space Center is located on the eastern edge of a large peninsula shaped vaguely like Africa. The Kerbal Space Center is comprised of an aircraft hangar, a launch pad, the Tracking Station, a vehicle assembly building, and the space plane takeoff/landing strip.

The crater's central peak is visible from orbit and was caused by the compression followed by the rebound of material in the center of the crater. That is visible in the large crater in the western hemisphere. Kerbin shows signs of having been impacted by an asteroid or comet. There are mountains exceeding 4 km in height, with the tallest peak being just under 4044 m in altitude. Kerbin has a roughly equal distribution of surface liquid water and solid land, with polar ice caps and scattered deserts. For many interplanetary missions, this represents over half of the flight's total delta-V requirement. Achieving such an orbit with a fuel-optimal ascent requires a delta-V of roughly 4500 m/s, the second largest of all celestial bodies with a solid surface after Eve. Reaching a stable orbit around Kerbin is one of the first milestones the player achieves in the game. It has two natural satellites orbiting it the Mun and Minmus. It is one of the two waterworlds in the Kerbol system as well Laythe being the second. It is the third largest planet in the Kerbol system as well as the third planet away from Kerbol. Kerbin is the home planet of the kerbals. Geographic location of the Kerbal Space Center.
