but if you want the hard badge i cant guarantee those will help you. earlyest i've been able to make it to space is day 10...and then i tryed using the e-rocket to make me go faster...
Tips: If you stop bouncing in the air and are about to land on the ground keep pushing to the left or right, you get a bonus for distance traveled, not fuel remaining and there are pads on the ground that can launch you in the air if you are lucky.
DONT push your e-rocket if your going faster than the e-rocket, it DOESNT speed you up more, it slows you down.
shoot sideways for maximum pull ;)
