    Problem No HUD. Orbiter 2024

    First, its the the 3D device, not the 3D engine (which "only" does define what the 3D device should render). Next, usually you set this in the system control panel for the GPU. Sadly I only know NVidia, so I can't tell you what you must do on ATI. Maybe somebody else knows the process. Make sure...

    Problem No HUD. Orbiter 2024

    That is 0x8876086C in hex, or D3DERR_INVALIDCALL. Can you check on which GPU Orbiter is running?

    I need permissions to use Orbiter 2016, InterplanetaryMFD, AerobrakeMFD for commercial purposes (teaching at a private university)

    I am not sure if it isn't a fringe case, see below. The licence at least asks for asking the copyright owner (Dr. Martin Schweiger) for permission first in that case. Anyway, I am a bit torn. Martin Schweiger isn't really active in the Orbiter Community today, but he still is active in medical...

    Can't reproduce it here, is your graphic card driver properly installed and configured? Any errors in Orbiter.log?

    A curious problem with Hohmann transfers

    Well, better late than never. I also needed a moment to realize that you can only make a difference if you search a maximum transfer time with less than half of your current orbit period. In that case, your only solution is a lower orbit, if you assume a hohmann transfer.

    A curious problem with Hohmann transfers

    Also, you would have noticed the same if you made a drawing of the "two" transfer orbits. ;)

    Updates Artemis

    A good idea, since the Orion Capsule is most likely the most mature and most useful component of the Artemis program. Sadly, its slightly too heavy for launching on a current Ariane 6.

    News Changes to the SpaceX BFR rocket.

    The flame seems to be gone after landing, so it might be a damaged return/pressurization line. Yes, GCH4 autogen leak seems likely there.

    Sadly no drone view of the landing yet.

    Some phase changes, but not as dramatic as on the past flights.

    Its now medium rare

    The velocity indicator shows hypersonic speeds, but the SpaceX pundits already talk about transsonic flight.....

    Seems to tumble slowly

    They could force a submarine to the surface with that "depth charge".

    Could also be recirculation into the engine bay.

    Gaming Reentry

    The current roadmap presented in the (new) main menu doesn't include any plans for the Space Shuttle for the next minor versions.

    yes, pretty much a repetition of the previous flight.
