I've got an orbit going around Jupiter, I discovered early on that I had to maintain that big orbit in order to avoid falling into Jupiter.
My goal was to land on Europa, Callisto, Ganymede (any moon would be great), but I've had trouble doing so.
I've tried IMFD course
I've tried manually doing it with TransferMFD
The problem comes when I try to maintain orbit around Europa. I either smash into the planet or I skid right past it while trying to retro burn.
I've tried both aligning planes and doing off-plane transfers but I get mixed results. Any insight here?
