Exactly how do I attach Parachutes to my engines so they can survive?

I'm trying to create a solar sail using the parachute however it's not working too well.

You should all be ashamed of yourselves.  The obvious solution is to chain the baby up at the entrance as a kobold detector.

Don't forget to mention what mods your using guys. I see people saying things like "large solid boosters with small ones" etc. Which is all well and fair if you have them installed, but they're not part of the base game.

Right now I'm using the Sunday Punch rocket parts set (by and large the most popular one, AFAICT), and a side helping of Quabit's KSP parts and the advanced decoupler shroud.

I'm not sure I see what you mean, I'm modding the files to create a solar sail.
So far it won't open at the set altitude of 20 thousand meters and instead it fails to open at all, I did however, get it to provide thrust when I had it opening at 5 thousand meters, but it wasn't enough to break gravitational pull, even with just the command pod.

I think I just created the most elliptical orbit ever.
Apokerbal at 1711K
Perikerbal at 42,311M
Yes, it's stable.
Somehow.
It only takes about two hours to complete one cycle :V

You sir, have just found out how Dwarves will colonize other planets when they invent rockets.

I love how you have no idea what's even going on and are making assumptions.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.
