As promised we will train today our rendezvous and I will explain how to do them easy or efficient way. As we will meet 2 ships on the orbit, it would be nice to dock as well right? Yes, it would be nice to introduce to you Docking Port Alignment Indicator mod that makes it easy to dock and to learn how to dock. But we cannot forger about the lazy docking method that used Matt Lowne and Scott Manley in they old but still useful tutorials 😊

RCS Tip: AWSD keybingings are IJKL and HN is for going forward and backwards.
