Do you plan on a release?. Great job on the Shenzhou:thumbup:

 

[IronRain]

(for IronRain: the transportation version of the Shenzhou spacecraft don't have solar panels on the orbital module, since it is not intended for independent flight)

I know, it was just a quick edit of the mesh

Nice work!

There's no way you can be human and crank out this many addons.

This is a new base in my Gliese 581 system. It's in the twilight zone on Gliese 581 g. (unconfirmed) There are two other bases with the same configuration on the day-side and then on the night-side.

If you look carefully there is a hint of purple which is the plant/animal life that is bio-luminescent.

STS-n.



Liftoff of the Space Shuttle Endeavour, returning to the International Space Station . . . and the Shuttle has cleared the tower!



(Insert scads of people cheering here.)



Uh oh. A major systems failure seconds prior to booster separation has forced a RTLS abort.

Here Endeavour is 'hanging ten' . . . performing a hand-stand in the thermosphere whilst bleeding off her original velocity vector.





...and it worked! An OMS assist helps translate forward momentum back into the 'hand-stand' to get Endeavour back home.



Medium-range cameras atop the Vehicle Assembly Building capture Endeavour on her way down . . .



. . . to a . . .



. . . slightly long touchdown point right at the Shuttle Landing Facility.

Ta-da! :tiphat:

Apparently i found a way to launch assist the Earth-to-orbit procedure of the Arrow.

And if you want to know, i made it to a safe orbit with my crew to Ecc=0.00000.

Delta Glider Rendered in Blender Cycles

Not sure that this is the proper thread to post this to or not as I couldn't find an official 'artwork' thread, I figured here is the closest bet.

The standard DG mesh & Textures (Credit: Roger "Frying Tiger" Long) rendered with 2500 passes in Blender using the cycles render engine. The only material modifications done were to set the material type of the visor to glossy and the hud to transparent. There's one external light source, and three inside the cabin. two above the astronauts, one the pilot, the other by the passengers. There's also a small green plane near the cockpit panels to throw off a slight green "mfd" glow that's visible on the pilot's chest. Also, there's alot of neat detail in the reflections of the helmets.
