About:
Shukra Venus Balloon Station is a manned facility in the Earth region of the Venus atmosphere,
maintained up there by aerostatic means.
This is still a work in progress version, don't judge too harsh.
Installation:
Unpack into Orbiter directory.
Shukra is UMMU compatible, installing UMMU addon is highly recommended. See http://orbiter.dansteph.com.
Collision physics specs and known bugs:
The landing happens if relative velocity is less than 0.5 m/s.
The station's location is fixed once the time accel goes above 10x, other time it is in free-float.
Landing on a station with time accel above or equal 10 is certain to create bugs.
