With my Navy background, I’ve read all of the O’Brian series, and am reading Forester’s Hornblower for the Kazillionth time. Enjoy it every time. Yeah, my modern Navy was WAY better.

Perhaps an alternate universe and timeline has crossover events through dreams and you are one there. So, did the other you have a dream playing Orbiter?:):hailprobe:

I also get flickering and other effects in shadows, and sometimes parts of planets are missing for a few seconds here and there. But, I attribute that to my laptop which is certainly no gaming machine.

Tony was one of the very few remaining who were already adult entertainers when I was very young, even before the very early stages of ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll.

Ohhhh! I had not realized there was a calendar feature to backdate. Just tried it. Thanks for that info. (y)

heavens-above.com shows a schedule for visible satellites and radio satellites in any location, with a great sky map to see the path, and it used to predict Iridium flares when that was a thing. I’ve their app for years. I don’t know anyone who predicts space junk in reentry.

Maybe a separate small box with 4 knobs (rheostats?), main, Hover, 2 for Shuttle-A, one for Auxiliary thrust, one for auxiliary alignment, connected USB, along with code.

No, no bot. the list was generated one at a time by searching the sites. I just discovered a bunch of other videos which will be added in time.

Hmmm, no wonder I could never deorbit the DG to Earth correctly. Anyway, @AndriiKOSMONAVT, might consider Go Play in Space by Bruce Irving, for a good tutorials on the basics. It can be found at the Wiki (https://www.orbiterwiki.org/wiki/Go_Play_In_Space). And besides Courtney, there is also...

Apparently, the population of billionaire space enthusiasts equals one . . . Elon.

Aha! Yeah, my bad. Google Translate/German-detected to English: Wolfenscheissen = Wolf shit Wolfenschiessen = Wolf shooting Makes much more sense. I knew about the 'ei' and 'ie' thing as a pronunciation guide from the PA Dutch and German, but, typed it in wrong in Translate. I wonder how many...

It would be nice to have a small manned station in LEO at ecliptic inclination that could do final checkout and solve stuff like this before ejection burn.

Mux switch?

It’s pronounced like ‘vah Moose’ with the accent on the moose, at least in my neck of the woods. The part that actually caught my eye was the ‘Oh crap! It’s a Thesaurus!’

AFAIK, Orbiter doesn’t like the x86 folder, it prefers to run as C:\Orbiter. That’s where it is in mine. Actually my install is C:\OrbiterTop\Orbiter. OrbiterTop contains the download folder and the external docs folder, and others. It could contain multiple Orbiter installs, if you like.

So, @LordCroussette , how well does that thing pitch or yaw in space?
