Pluto

[Bj]

Has anyone been to (and/or) landed on Pluto with the DG IV? I did it once with the delta glider,

Hmm, a goal that I have to achieve!

I haven't landed on Pluto, but I have landed on : http://orbithangar.com/searchid.php?ID=610

Landing on this really gives you a sense of solitude. It's creepy...Yet it's so much fun to do EVA's on it.

You, know what, I havenot landed on these planets, just orbited them

I think that you would land on the mesh of the planet, like saturn which is all clouds, so youd fly threw the planets clouds and eventually run into 'nothing'

my guess anyway, or have a ctd

Actually, you can land on them - although the surface is a flat texture...but then again, so is every other planet's surface in Orbiter, unless you have additional surface tiles/meshes.

Oh, and did I say, "Land"? You're more likely to come down crashing at several hundred m/s, since hardly any ship has engines powerful enough to overcome those planets' immense gravity.
