Kerbal Space Program? Anyone?

Schmee:
Things are looking better: I've managed all the 45-science upgrades (SAS is a wonderful thing). I had a probe in orbit and another about to decelerate  into an orbit around the Mun, when I realised that solar panels are a thing, and (more accurately) that solar panels are a thing that I hadn't unlocked. No power. The probe whizzed straight past the Mun, and (after a short interlude of wailing and gnashing of teeth) I reverted to the launch. Oh well.

You had me a space and I was sold at physics! Downloading asap.

Note to self: it is a bad idea to attempt to do a 20 km/s maneuver with an ion engine.  :mrgreen:

Schmee:
Why, what happens? Not enough fuel? Never used ion engines...

cesium133:
I've got plenty of fuel, but they have so little thrust it takes forever.

edit -- incidentally, the closest you can get to the surface of the sun without your craft vaporizing is 1316 m.
