Hello, I am currently writing on my diploma thesis on a topic of quantum mechanics. I think I am familiar enough with the formalism and how to apply it but the interpretation is something totally different. So I made a poll to see what you guys think about this. The options are from wikipedia...

Hello, this is my first challenge and I think it is an easy one for you veteran orbinauts. However, it was quite a tough one for me. You have your XR2 at Wideawake International waiting for liftoff. Launch, fly to the moon and land at Brighton Beach. There 12 crewmembers are exchanged (you...

Hello, I think I found a small bug regarding the XR2-Ravenstar addon. The following scenario results in a CTD using the D3D9-client: BEGIN_DESC Contains the latest simulation state. END_DESC BEGIN_ENVIRONMENT System Sol Date MJD 52004.4572122264 END_ENVIRONMENT BEGIN_FOCUS Ship...

Hello, I have a small problem regarding the christmas release of the DGIV. Whenever I enable the Hold Speed Autopilot (PRO 400 SPEC nn), I can't control the glider anymore. Pressing NumPad 4, 6, 8 or 2 gives an error ("Command disabled by safety during this autopilot"). I don't think that this...

Hello, I have my spaceship landed on Europa, now I want to fly to Earth using IMFD 5.5. The problem is, that for the Target Intercept program the source Body is Jupiter. When I do the Orbit Eject program, I eject from Europa. Therefore, I am still in Jupiters gravity and Orbit Eject doesn't...

Hello, the DGIV can take up to 4 UCGO cargos. But when I press release, how can I choose which one of the 4 cargos should be released? By default it releases the first one. Thank you, Georg

How is it possible to listen to music in space (outside view) while using OGLA. When i run Orbiter in OGLA Mode, the Orbiter Sound Addon works but it doesn't find any mp3's (when looking on the mfd). Haven't tested it with the dx7 client. Maybe it's not an OGLA problem, but an orbiter_ng one...

Just wanna know if you could see saturn on titan's surface, or is it too hazy? Also what colour do the lakes on titan have? I would be glad if someone could point me to realistic renders of titan views with lakes (not the Huygen's picture).

Hi all, currently I am reading "The Trouble with Physics" by Lee Smolin. In this book I stumpled across the so called "Pionier anomaly". In short the Pioner anomaly "is the observed deviation from predicted trajectories and velocities of various unmanned spacecraft visiting the outer solar...

Hallo an alle Österreicher hier! Wie vielleicht schon jemand gehört hat, will Österreich seine 50-jährige CERN Mitgliedschaft kündigen lassen. Das kann man natürlich nicht durchgehen lassen! Hier kann man sich weiter informieren wer betroffen sein wird: http://sos.teilchen.at/index.html Und...

Unfortunately not everything fits into the poll, so I write some additions here: In point two I mean a restriction like the "Heisenberg uncertainty principle", or some random fluctuation In point four I mean that our theories only give us good results just because they are constantly adapted...

While watching stuff about 4th dimension on youtube I had an idea: If you have, for example, an triangle and project it (perspectivic) on a 2-dimensional surface you can make any triangle out of it. For example you project a regular triangle and can get a rectangular one as the "shadow" (of a...

I am in orbit around Titan, with the standard Dg. I get around 60 fps. At the moment I have saturn (I have the same issue with Uranus) in the screen, the framerate drops to 15 fps (or even worse). Also from this moment the framerate stays below 35 fps whatever I am looking at. I have installed...

I'm about to learn the very basic of c++ with simple command line programs. I have written this programm from a tutorial: #include "stdafx.h" #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int ivar; double dvar; ivar = 100; dvar = 100.0; cout << "Original value...

During a lecture about special relativity at my university a question occurs to me that my Prof couldn t answer. Maybe one of the clever people here can give me an answer. There is this thing called twin paradox. One of the twins travels with a high velocity rocket into space and the other stay...

Does someone know where I can get the base, in the background of this pick? thanks in advance

Hi I have already compiled the shuttlePB, shuttleA and deltaglider sample with VS 2008 Express under Vista Home Premium. Now I got stuck with compiling the UMmu_ShuttlePB_Example. I set up my compiler like in this tutorial: http://www.orbiterwiki.org/wiki/Free_Compiler_Setup I opened the...

Hi I don't know if this is an limitation because it is still a work in progress or I just can't find the right key. I have the Shukra-080813 installed. My problem is that when I entered the station with an UMMU I just can't leave it again. I already tried almost every combination on the...
