It is increasingly common to launch many satellites on a single rocket in to many different orbits. How is it that we end up with nicely spaced out satellites when they are all launched from a single rocket? What kinds of limitations are imposed by having these all share a common rocket? How do you get GEO satellites in to different locations with the same launch, and for that matter, at the right attitude? All of these, and more we will answer this time! We will answer them using the great Kerbal Space Program, as well as talk about some of its limitations in this department.
