Use the kerbal construction time or whatever it is mod with 5x longer time than it comes with. You'll naturally drift through many transfer windows as you push through your career, and it also forces you to coordinate more on multiple-launch missions

I got a ISRU planethopping probeā€¦

I used it to gather most of the science in the game with one mission.

Narva boost to Minimus to refuel, NERVA boost to jool, refuel at pol (lol), gather science from every biome in the orbit of the Green Jovian Giant.

*NERVA

Hey, do you guys think that an orbital fuel depot, fueled from a lunar ice excavator, would be useful for boosting satellites from LEO to GEO?

GEO isn't high enough to be worth the effort but for interplanetary trips a moonbase capable of producing fuel would be useful.
IRL project Orion was our best hope for exploring the solar system but because we expected ~2 deaths related to each launch the project was dropped.

I hope it comes back one day but it won't be any time soon with the current political climate.
