    Orbiter 2016 (and KSP) in The Space Review

    I wrote a review article on Orbiter 2016 for The Space Review, and it just went live here.

    This weekend I will be demonstrating Orbiter at two museums, at the Ecotarium in Worcester, MA on Saturday, and at Space Expo 2008 at the New England Air Museum (near Hartford, CT) on Sunday.
