TransferMFD Won't let me select earth as a target if orbiting moon - Orbiter-Forum

So, I know how to get to the moon, but how do I get back to earth? If I select "Moon" as a reference, it won't let me select "Earth" as a target.

You must be using transfer MFD. For that you must select the Sun as a reference if you want to transfer from the moon to the Earth.

As posted above you can use transfer MFD. But also IMFD planet approach/ base approach works very nice. Or Trans-X.

I use IMFD with base approach in one MFD, and orbit-eject in the other (make sure they're shared. )
