Anyone ever have any success simulating the Near-rectilinear halo orbit that Gateway will be utilizing? I honestly don't understand how to work that one out in Orbiter.

Anyone working on these for Orbiter? The Dynetics lander looks really interesting.

Age of 85. We now live in a world where both the first spacewalker and first moonwalker have passed.

Anyone know where to find a good mesh for Apollo EVA suits? Trying to make something with Fred's VB for my own personal use.

I've been seeing a lot of threads for SpaceX launches, several for the same launch, so I just thought I'd create a thread to consolidate all of SpaceX's launches. Current launch schedule (1/12/19) Falcon 9 - PSN VI/SpaceIL/GTO-1 - February 22, 2019 at 00:45 UTC - SLC40 - B1048.3 Falcon...

SpaceX has received approval to build BFR at Port of LA. It'll be transported to Cape Canaveral via Barge through the Panama Canal. Pauline Acalin on Twitter: "A lot of public support in the room for the development of SpaceX’s BFR facility at today’s permit meeting at Port of LA. #spacex #bfr...

So like an idiot I bought a keyboard without a numpad, and my joystick is broken. Before I purchase another keyboard though, is there anyway to change the default bindings to be controlled by another set of keys? Right now I'm using Remote Vessel to control my spacecrafts :lol:

A little more than 48-hours after SpaceX launched BulgariaSat-1 from KSC, another Falcon 9 will launch, this time from Vandenberg AFB, with the Iridium NEXT-2 satellites! Launch will be at 20:24:59 UTC today and it will be an instantaneous window. The first stage will land on the drone ship...

Another reuse mission coming up for SpaceX! This booster previously launched the Iridium NEXT-1 mission 5 months ago, B1029. This will also be Bulgaria's first geostationary satellite. Looking for a static fire NET tomorrow (6/15/17) B1029 on the deck of "Just Read the Instructions" earlier...

SpaceX continues its rapid launch cadence with the CRS-11 mission! Aiming for a static fire on Saturday, with a launch on the 1st of June at 5:55pm EDT (21:55pm UTC). Planned landing at LZ-1, the third LZ-1 landing of the year. This mission will reuse the pressure vessel previously flown on the...

We're a little under 4 months away from the first total solar eclipse visible over the continuous United States since February 1979. Anyone going to take a trip for this? If so, what gear are you bringing with you? Hoping to set up somewhere in Georgia with my DSLR + 300mm lens, as well as a...

SpaceX will launch a Falcon 9 rocket with the NROL-76 satellite on the first NRO mission for SpaceX. Exact launch time will not be released until we are closer to T-0, but it'll be sometime within 7:00am-9:30am (11:00 UTC - 13:30 UTC) from LC-39A. The first stage will RTLS to SpaceX's Landing...

Alright, this is the big one (at least until Falcon Heavy flies)! SpaceX will refly the F9-1021 booster, previously flown on the SpaceX CRS-8 mission, with the SES-10 satellite. F9-1021 will also likely again be attempting a landing on Of Course I Still Love You, and it'll be a challenging high...

I'm not going to lie, I struggle with making Orbiter addons, even though I've been an active member in the community for over a decade. I've read ar81's tutorials but, and maybe because I'm a person who understands a process better seeing something done versus reading about it, I still don't...

Anyone working on that one that might need some reference pictures?

NASA has pulled rank in the SpaceX manifest after the EchoStar-23 delays, making CRS-10 the first SpaceX mission from Launch Complex 39A! From SpaceX, Interesting to see how much metal is already being removed from the RSS in the first image as SpaceX slowly begins to tear it down. Looks...

SpaceX's first launch from LC39A, as well as the first launch from LC39A since STS-135, has been set for January 15, 2017 with the EchoStar 23 satellite! ---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:07 PM ---------- Static fire date scheduled for Jan 10th. Launch...

Looks like SpaceX is actually going to try to RTF next month. Booster has been spotted on its way to McGregor, presumably for its test firing. Likely that it will be from LC39A as VAFB is still closed due to the damage from the fire and SLC40 is... yea.
