Get the mechjeb mod. I was able to put a lander on Mun. Didnt have enough fuel to get back into orbit but thats not the point.
Even with the autopilot mod, there is a lot of strategy. Especially when dealing with other planets. Plus tons of luck. I was able to get an unmanned ship to orbit around Duna (Mars). It was on the same plane as its moon. Out of fuel, I lucked into getting the moons orbit to sling shot me into the planet. I was able to get science readings of high orbit Duna, high orbit the moon, close orbit Duna and surface readings of Duna. That netted me about 300 science on that trip alone.
