No, that wouln't have worked, because the QEP could use orbital/gravitational assistance to strike the craft, even if it's on the other side of the planet. Also, if the Sunbeam was to land on the other side of the planet successfully, the ship will land in the Dead Zone, and would be (very likely) destroyed or damaged by Ghost Leviathans.
