My previous step by step videos on using AMSO were intended as quickstart instructions. This video gives some more commentary on the flight with detail on using the LunarTransfer MFD to do the Mid-Course Correction. I look at the LunarTransfer MFD as a specialized IMFD for this task. Since it...

Well its been a long time since I posted a tutorial. This time I thought I try my hand at a new media and do a video tutorial on YouTube. As always my goal with tutorials are to make them as simple as possible and with video to keep each step short. No more then 5 to 10 minutes each. This set...

Yep, that's what I'm using. I like NASSP for the missions without the LM and find AMSO preferable when flying with the LM.

That's the one. Thanks

No, that would be spacecraft environmental systems. I work on impacts to our environment from materials, like EPA regs.

For twenty years I worked on the Space Shuttle Program as an environmental engineer. First with Pratt & Whitney (USBI) then with United Space Alliance.

About three years. Back then I was spending time with NASSP. I love working the panels and dsky. Now I'm finding AMSO to be amazing, but no panels. So I'm thinking I'll do earlier Apollo with NASSP and later mission with AMSO. The AMSO launchpad and tower are fantastic. Having been out at Pad A...

Its been quite some time since I fooled with Orbiter but I vaguely remember a mod that lets you run Orbiter from a separate window. Can anyone direct me in what that was or is? You see my boys and I have a dedicated computer room which we recently installed a 40 inch 1080 TV screen for gaming...

I just launched an Apollo Sat V from AMSO with D3D9Client and oh my the shake during launch will rattle your teeth out. Has anyone else notice this difference with D3D9Client. Combine all this with L14 Earth textures and boy Orbiter is looking superb these days. Its great being in space again.

Apollo 14 Below is a revised Apollo 14 scenario that places the Saturn V, MLP, MSS, transporter and VAB in their proper locations. It doesn't fix the LM for landing on the moon. We have to wait for the developers for that. However you can uses this code to fix the locations on all the other...

I'm glad this thread got moved. I mistakenly posted it incorrectly. Yes you can easily move a mesh by changing its location parameters. However having been gone for a while I'm not familar with VAFB SLC-6 at SSU. Meshes may be split or combined making movement difficult. In my KSC Environment...

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome back. I have a cool job now but nothing can compare to working on the Space Shuttle. Now that's over for all. I can only hope US manned flight will return eventually. I still have friends working at KSC but they're all nervous. For now I will be reliving the...

Too bad. I love the pad, tower and mlp. Someone did some nice work. It would be fantastic if it was in launch configuration.

Cool, I'll take a look and begin to update my KSC Environment mod to work with the new version. ---------- Post added at 05:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:54 AM ---------- Does the Beta version RSS rotate out of the way? Don't want to launch with the structure wrap around the shuttle.

Yes, I see. I just joined the Florida group.

Hello all, It's been awhile for me. see http://www.orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?p=392951#post392951 and I have a few questions. I noticed Orbiter includes the 3D cockpit version of Atlantis. That's good but is there an addon that has upgraded launch pads? I know of SLATs but those pads...

Its been awhile but I'm back after a couple years away. For those who don't know me I'm an old timer from almost the beginnings of Orbiter. Some of you may have used some of my tutorials or addons or even visited my website. Some may remember I worked at KSC. I don't anymore. After twenty...

We didn't expect that many people to show up to the photo shoot. I think over 3000 came and at the last minute we made the circle. It was done in a hurry because the helicopter was scheduled to come at 12 noon and we only had a few minutes. There was no chalk line for the circle. Obviously there...

That's right the NASA Helicopter was there to take the photos but the video was shot from the VAB roof. Several tour buses got held up during all this while employees crossed the road. Photo link: http://mediaarchive.ksc.nasa.gov/search.cfm?cat=4
