There's a space sim too?
That opens up a whole new vista for modeling...I'll have to take a look at it.

I've been using Orbiter for some time now. What it can do is amazing. I recommend checking out Dan's Orbiter page (http://orbiter.dansteph.com/) and downloading the Delta Glider.

Isn't this a complex sim involving alot of math?

Thanks for the links, I'd come across several versions of big E (A,D and original IIRC) as well as the Galactica but never looked into the sim itself(back in those crammed up lil 18 gig HD days).

I found orbiter on avisin it simulates spaceflight. I tired lauching the shuttle but it barely got off the ground and fell back. I downloaded my favorite station skylab. Too bad it got damaged during launch.
