    The Orbiter Perspective

    Orbiter makes Earth feel just like what it is, a small dust particle in the Universe. It makes me feel like humanity is one, in a sense it makes me love other people. At the same time it shows me the beauty of the Universe, and makes me appreciate it more. In my mind I don't live on a flat...

    KSC to Wideawake Intl. race type thing.

    See this thread. http://orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?t=5727 Agentgonzo has (incredibly) done it in under 20 minutes (don't ask me how). I've made that flight a couple of times now, and have gotten to 27 minutes, but thats obvioulsy with very high G's, and not a realistic flight as yours.
