How Maneuver Works[edit]
Page 106, table ROCKET TO ORBIT. Fuel = World Size x Payload. This is the fuel required to boost a payload to R=8. The time it takes to reach that orbit is World Size in minutes.
If you plan to transfer the payload to a higher orbit, you need to make sure your payload includes the fuel required for the transfer.
A transfer from R=8 to R=9 (or R=9 to R=10) requires Fuel = World Size x Payload / 2.
A transfer from R=8 to R=10 or further requires Fuel = World Size x Payload.
