Complete orbital contracts in Kerbal Space Program and gather science with the Mystery Goo Containment Unit and SC-9001 Science Jr. to unlock advanced parts.
Once in orbit, you'll unlock various contracts related to orbital maneuvers, such as changing inclination or reaching specific altitudes. These are excellent for earning funds and reputation. Equip your orbital craft with scientific instruments like the Mystery Goo Containment Unit and the SC-9001 Science Jr. to gather valuable science from different orbital biomes.

Transmit science when possible, but remember that transmitting often yields less science than recovering the data on Kerbin. Prioritize recovery for high-value experiments. Use the R&D facility to unlock new parts with the science points you accumulate, which will be essential for more ambitious missions.
