    Too bad those lights don't actually illuminate anything...

    Project Universal Car for Orbiter (UCO)

    Is there a docking port (besides the one for the DGIV) on the Arrow?

    Project Universal Car for Orbiter (UCO)

    It also makes sense from a logistical standpoint, as having a fully-functional spacecraft inside a landed spacecraft doesn't make much sense, and the DGIV could be left in orbit (with a a small crew) to provide assistance, communications, etc.

    Metric or US customary? Which measurement system you perfer?

    Metric. The Imperial system is completely illogical. 5280 feet in a mile? I like how simple the metric system is. 10 centimeters in a decimeter. 10 decimeters in a meter. 1000 meters in a kilometer, etc, etc.

    I know the XR2 has fuel dumping visible in space, but it's white, not grey.

    Dan, it seems that whenever you try to create an add-on, you always go overboard. Not that that's a bad thing at all. ;)

    Err, regarding #1, UMMUs aren't really supposed to grapple them while on the ground.

    Where to Start?

    Oh, and FYI, it's Orbiter Space Flight Simulator, not Orbital. Sorry for the nitpickery.

    MIT students launch $150 camera

    28.3 km isn't "space". But still pretty awesome nonetheless. Maybe I could get my crappy high school to do something like this...

    Project Universal Car for Orbiter (UCO)

    Do you plan on making a "DGIV.5" to make the DGIV more compatible with UCGO?

    OHM New Wind Sample

    Hmm, that reminds me, I found (stole) a nice loopable wind sample on Freesound.org (where else?) that I use instead of the default sound. Maybe I should upload it sometime in the future...

    Wouldn't a Dyson sphere be made out of millions of satellites, not a solid shell?
