Hi,
greetings from Warsaw, Poland - cześć :)
This is my second week with Orbiter and I love it!
I am interested in Shuttle only as I like gliders (Condor 2 sim) and Shuttle is fascinating for me - the reentry and landing was the most challenging for me for years, after flying X-plane 11 (beta tester).
Cheers, have fun and stay safe! (no CoVid in Mars?)

So, after two weeks of practising I made my first mission in Atlantis to ISS (docking) and back to KSC landing safely :) YT tutorial "Absolute begginer" by David was the most helpful.
Satisfied !

If you like gliders, perhaps you find this flight interesting. It shows how to land a XR5 Vanguard with cargo containers onboard on Mars, using absolute minimum fuel. Most of the aero capture and aerobrake phases are unpowered:

Is the scenery in that video from the hires texture and elevation map from the main orbiter site? Or a different addon entirely? It looks incredible :thumbup:
