How to manually launch the default Atlantis space shuttle and rendezvous with ISS.
Turn annotations on for tips.

If you are new to orbiter I recommend learning the difference between PERIAPSIS and APOAPSIS.

The picture below shows where they are on the Orbit MFD.

Then just remember....

If you are raising your periapsis, burn prograde at apoapsis.
If you are lowering your periapsis, burn retrograde at apoapsis.
If you are raising your apoapsis, burn prograde at periapsis.
If you are lowering your apoapsis, burn retrograde at periapsis.
