Orbiter Romantica:
Hypothetically - If by some bit of magic a ship from Orbiter materialized out in the field across town, would you be able to pilot it? Let us take liberty here and assume the controls, displays, and abilities of the ship are exactly like that as portrayed in the simulation. What do you think your skill set would allow you to do?
1- Start the engines and perhaps taxi around town.
2- Complete some atmospheric flying.
3- Do sub-orbital hops.
4- Get into orbit and back down.
5- Make a delivery run to the ISS or something.
6- Get to the moon.
7- Make it to any planet, moon, or asteroid, anytime anyplace.
8- I'm doing experiments designing my own ships and mfd's and have been everywhere already.
9- Hyperdrive babycakes! There is no substitute!
Furthermore, if you were taking your s.o. out on a date, which craft would you choose and why? Where would you go?
