I guess global warming melt ice cap and sea level rise...with rise of sea level earth atmosphere rise as well and reach orbiting station and slow it down,well to crash on runway must be a luck.

the Orion-bomb-splitters caused a tsunami while the nuke-explosion heated the polar ice to melt, that's why the runway was flooded excactly at the moment when ISS impacted.

The question is just: why does everything that's fired down by Orion (I also made a few experiments with it) landing on the same runway?

only :probe: kows :hailprobe:

I think Orion is moving stuff instantaneously to a predetermined point if it determines that it was close enough to a blast to be blown to smithereens.

Decided to continue my old Thorton ISS. STS-88 pictured. Managed to get the angle to be pretty close.

Just the default shuttle fleet. Though, I haven't used that orbiter install in ages, so I may have messed with it and don't recall. I normally use mcwoggs' for my normal installs, but I know these aren't those.

Sitting at Jarvis in the TI TX, waiting for a 'fare', kicking back in the port jump seat at sunset, taking pictures:

Thanks Spacethingy! I do try and get a 'photo' look with my screenshots. And I figured that a shot inside the cockpit at dusk would require a slower shutter speed.:)

-----------

As an aside; I quite like my photo-editing software, but I notice that after I've got the pic looking like I want, the saved version is almost always a bit darker in appearance.

I'm thinking of trying something new, and thought I'd ask what photo-editors others like or dislike, and if anyone else has noticed a 'darkening' of their images after saving.

Thanks.
