I concur, would love the option to drop bodies with no orbital velocity.

Although you can press 1 on the keyboard, how can I launch other bodies such as moons or planets? I can't seem to find how to.  ???

If you press 2 you will launch the moon.
3 will throw an earth
4 will launch a Neptune I believe
5, a sun
and 6 will throw a comet (comets are a bit buggy though)

Thank you! Also, I discovered another way a minute ago.
If you would like to send an object towards something such as a planet or star, first put it into orbit. Then, click on "Actions", and select zero velocity. It will fall towards the object it was in orbit around.  :)
