Can you post those news also on Forum Orbiter Italia, please? :thumbup:

I read only today your message (sorry :blush: :embarrassed: ). I'm not the creator of the code for the boil off, but I'll leave a message for those who did so to make it available.

A new feature is in developing from Fausto: simulation of propellent boil-off for the 3rd stage of Antares Long Range. If the volume of propellents goes under a defined limit an alarm sounds. A new beta will be ready soon.

:lol: I don't know when all work on the dll will be completed, what you see in the previous posts it's only a preview.

Yes, this feature was developed in parallel with this new version of Antares, and will be distributed for use with all spacecraft that one wants to use (Space Shuttle, XR2, DG and so on). This system of radio interface is not attached to Antares but, again, it can be used with any spacecraft.

Position lights to visually locate Antares (in case of use with a lunar lander): The position lights are 4, with the same flashing rate of the Apollo CSM (one green flash of 0.2 second every second) Visibility of the position Lights at 5 km or 3.125 miles with a 20 degrees FOV: Bright...

Pipcard, I see only in this moment your post. The "Big Antares" was an aborted idea that (as you wrote) was inspired by "Big Gemini" for the Deep Space Exploration. And, for all who are interested, Fausto has "in his hands" :lol: the new mesh of Antares, with new functions that are in develop...

We are working to change the position of the docking protection cone: Now the cone opens downwards, avoiding to block the jets of the RCS engines. But not expect the release of this upgrade until the new year (maybe even until march).

ISS and Moon over my town: The same image, cropped to ISS: Other images start from this link

For now this function isn't yet implemented, but we are working about to realize this feature. It is still in the "to do list".

No, only Venus ... ;)

... it's very hard find an electrical substation on the Moon ... :lol: Again, "... a Merry Christmas and God bless all of you - all of you on the good Earth." (Frank Borman, Apollo 8 CMD)

The Italian Orbiter Community wishes to the staff and all user of Orbiter Forum Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! :cheers:

:) Like this one? Merry Christmas to all Orbiter Forum Staff and users. :cheers:

Press F3 and choose Fermi, then press "K" and the hatch will open.:thumbup:

"Excuse me, Sir, I was in a hurry ..."

:sos:

There is no problem if someone wants to record the event and post it on Youtube. We'll also save a copy of the interview on Fausto's PC as well as on Livestream.

New design of the external hull, more smooth: Now the main hatch closes exactly in an almost invisible way. The dll is still work in progress, but the oxigen comsumption bug is solved.

Thursday was Thanksgiving Day ... :lol:
