The biggest disaster you have caused in Orbiter

@ sky captain: I'm afraid a few thousand kilometres isn't gonna help you with an explosion of this magnitude.

Yeah gamma rays would be a killer. Better should pack a few meters of tungsten armor.
 
In PSP, I took an orbiter screenie of the earth, and a photo of an explosion, pasted it onto the earth, took out a circular section (containing the explosion) made a new image, changed polar to rectangular, added wind, rectangular to polar, pasted it back onto the image of the earth, added a star-burst and THAT is how we haz epicz phoshopz skilz.

:rofl::rofl::rofl:
It reminds me of my first shuttle launch attempt when I did`t know how to start engines and randomly tried various keys. When I finally hit right key I watched very suprised srb`s seperating and flying away and shuttle falling to ground.
 
It would have to be de-orbiting the Iss and Mir :shifty:. I also happen to crash DGIVs into the Pacific.
 
@ blacklight: oh probe, I am sooo sorry, but I couldn't help myself...

hahah a dual ares-x launch:rofl:
 
That's exactly how it happened to me. The pictures were a re-creation, but it had to be done in pictures to appreciate the beauty of the moment.
 
Trying to undock from skylab I cause the service module to seperate first and then the command module undocked from the station.
 
I was building a space-station in MEO today, and I was focused on the main module of it. I had an XR-5 and a DG-IV docked. as current protocol stated, the crew must have minimum space-exposure gear worn at all times in case of decompression. I undocked the module from the XR-5... with both airlocks open. I pulled my DG-IV in STAT to capture the crew who almost froze from exposure. I'm keeping that protocol.
 
I gave a spacecraft a name with a space in it.
 
I had just launched the space shuttle Discovery onto a polar orbit trajectory. Shortly after liftoff, my mean spirited wife came in and started hitting random keys (While I desperately tried to slap her hands away). She managed to jettison the solid rocket boosters and the external tank. I watched as the external tank tumbled downward over Eastern Florida having visions of the 1,600,000 lb liquid oxygen/liquid hydrogen bomb landing on a retirement community or a trailer park. *BOOM !!!*
