Why my STS-128 crew died after leaving the shuttle?

They forgot to turn on the O2 flow before launching.

:lollerskates: and beacuse my crew died

With a little configuration editing and a little scenario editing..

And this one is one of my favorites! Very realistic.

Is that Hubble? If so, it looks a little low.

And the moon looks a little big.. hmm.
Maybe its zoomed in for dramatic effect!?! :lol:

Conspiracy!

Here are some screenshots of moon3d on avsim.

i never imagined that i would set my personal high speed record in the Swift1 rocket-plane.

Mach 62.54? :blink:

I knew that the Swift was insanely over the top, but I had no idea it would actually reach escape velocity INSIDE the atmosphere. :blink:

i pretty much had the same expression on my face :blink:

If the astronaunts see this landing, they will go cough cough!

36757 mph at 65 mile alt, wow you think your are going faster than solar winds?

 

[Nemoricus]

If astronauts can go cough, cough from that, they've got bigger issues to worry about. Such as asphyxiation.

In all seriousness, though, the XR5 kicks up a huge dust cloud when it lands. It'll get all over the base. Must be a pain to clean up, too.

I must try this.

These are a few of my favourite images taken during various missions.

"Saturn Rise": Taken by the Transworld Express crew while orbiting Titan.

"Contact": Deepstar 2 being refueled by ReFuel's Morning Star XR5 after a long and very successful mission of exploration. I know, Deepstar's 'upside-down', but her triangular radiator configuration made an approach from the 'top' much safer.

The rest are pretty much self-explanatory.

A bit late, but glad to know you like the addons

Forced AA on in nvidia control panel and took some pictures
I'm a sucker for that progress.

Nope.

The solar wind reaches velocities of around 400 km/s (250 mi/s) near the plane of Earth's orbit, and around 750 km/s (466 mi/s) over the solar poles.

Ouch, That's fast! Wish i could ride on it so i can go to mars more quickly! But in real life i cant

Now that I have started flying REAL ships, I simulated a mission conglomerating reality and fiction:

First DG - Soyuz docking, with the Mir in the background:

 

[Jer95]

Wow Delta Glider - Soyuz Test project!
And why the MFD screens are white? And NO HUD! :O

Dough need to be enviromently friendly!

I had the MFDs on, but they didn't show up in the VC (As you can see). I didn't use my HUD, because all I had to do was undock, and wait for the Soyuz. I generally judge dockings visually anyway

if you change the color depth to 16bit they will show up
