A while back, najab introduced me to this excellent space flight simulator,Orbiter Space Flight Simulator. Just recently, an updated version came out. So for those who have already known about Orbiter, I just wanted to bring this up just incase you haven't already seen it. There are some cool improvements to the original. (Scramjets come to mind) Check it out. <img src="/images/icons/cool.gif" /><br /><br />To those who have not heard of Orbiter before now, it is the most awesome space flight and atmospheric flight simulator there is. Absolutely awesome. It's realistic in everything, gravitational and orbital mechanics, atmospheric properties when flying, planetary distances, speeds, masses, realistic in everything, making it all the better.<br /><br />Although because of this, it does have a very steep learning curve to actually be able to fly well. It's not too hard though. You'll get it. I've gotten suborbital hops mastered, although thats not too hard, just point you're nose up and fire the rockets till you get to space!, and I can rendevous with Mars' two moons if I take off from Mars. Very awesome flight that was!<br /><br />It's an awesome simulator, very fun, and spectacular views. I absolutely love it! Take a look at the website and try it out. You'll enjoy it!
