It is about the same shape as Rama...

My sister attended the same primary school as the little girl who was killed. My dad tells me the main road through the village is now festooned with pink ribbons and balloons. Can't type any more - cant see the screen clearly.

Gravitational waves is astounding and one of the top physics discoveries ever. They were predicted though and it was only a matter of time before their detection. For me the best discovery is the rocky, habitable-zone planet orbiting Proxima. Finding such a planet orbiting the closest star is...

Lemmy's party must be really swinging by now.

Is there a latitude limit to the hires textures? Things seem to suddenly get vague north of Loch Lomond. Slainte! hic...

Is the runway flat? I get this problem when taking off from Liverpool in Orbiter 2016 and I think it is caused by the terrain not being level.

Same here - crash.

I hadn't tried it yet so this is good to hear. In my opinion this, of all addons, is one that Martin should have built into Orbiter 2016. As an F9 option maybe.

Back on the old M6 forum (anyone remember that?) I posted a Fermi* calculation showing that if we looked for a civilisation 400 light-years away broadcasting a TV signal we would only be receiving one photon every hundred million years. Someone checked the calculation and agreed with me. I just...

Or a "WOW!" signal? I am interested to know why these exist. I can see an anomalous value in the elevation data causing it but there seem to be anomalous points surrounding it (see screenshot below). Are these extra points Orbiter interpolations or are they also real anomalous values in the...

Exact location: 129.079E, 6.395S. I nudged the DG to the top of it using the scenario editor. Great viewpoint!

Sorry if this is the wrong place to post, but I found this "monolith" on Mars (hi-res textures). The co-ords are approx 129.5E 7S

Lake District is north-west England near the Scottish border.

Reentry for Heathrow: coast of Greenland English Lake District and Solway Firth Orbiter 2016. Nice.
