I'm still circling the Mun with Valentina in this Kerbal space Program episode!

We are still attempting to get the last two readings we need for the temperature scan contract that we have. We have a burn planned to change our inclination, however, our initial concern is our electricity as we are currently experiencing a solar eclipse!

On the way to the burn, the sun finally comes out from behind Kerbin and charges us back up. We make the burn, and head for the next point to do a reading.

As we get close, we make a correction burn so that we get to the location. With the correction done, we plan another burn after the first location to get to the next location.

We near the first location, but find we are still above the altitude for the reading, although we are descending. Unfortunately, we leave the point before we get low enough. This was because we were coming from a very high altitude, and didn't get low enough in time. We decide to continue with our plan and get the other point before coming back for this one.

This time everything goes well, and we get the data we need.

We then plan two burns to get back to the point we missed. The first burn lowers our orbit to be below the needed altitude, while the second one changes our inclination to pass over the point.

We carry out the burns, taking so EVA reports in the process, and head to the final point for the temperature readings. This time we get the reading without issue!

However, we now have under 1/3 of our fuel left. If we were to land, we could complete a few other contracts, however, we likely wouldn't have the fuel to return to Kerbin. So instead, we decide to plan a burn to leave the Mun and leave those contracts for another mission.
