Here's a launch I made up. Please disregard all the decimal
point thingys calculated to the thousandth or so ( I was
being meticulous ). Please send any erata to me, because I'm
still learnin'. Thanks and enjoy.
OLD COMMERCIAL LAUNCH

Streamlining and Thruster Fuel:
Fully Streamlined Vessel: 18 m3 0.0008 MLv
Fuel Requirements for Lift-Off and Reentry: 18.099583 Tons
Note: This amount of fuel is equivalent to 4022.1296 hours of flight. Using this amount of fuel leaves 200.09267 hours of flight.
Orbit Time: 0.12 minute to obtain maximum orbit, 0.4 minutes are spent in atmosphere while 0.8 minutes are spent in low orbit.
Note: These times as well as fuel requirements are based on Earth-like gravities (Earth=1). Multiply the figures by the appropriate gravity for non Earth-like planets.
