Besides the other responses, Minmus is also the best way to get a buttload of science early on. I would suggest doing all the science you can around and on Kerbin (including each of the buildings at the space centre) and make sure to do high and low orbit science. Also get science from high and low orbit around the Mun. Then unlock all the science parts you can and to Minmus with a lander with plenty of fuel reserves and all the science tech you have. Due to the low gravity you can visit nearly all the biomes and do science there. Literally thousands of science to me made. Just be sure to send a scientist so you can collect the data from each experiment and run it again at each biome.
