Dieses Jahr findet ebenfalls wieder eine Kerbal Space Night statt: Im Rahmen einer Art LAN Party findet das vierte Mal die Kerbal Space Night statt. Die Teilnehmer tauschen Erfahrungen aus, messen sich in Challanges in Kerbal Space Program und erforschen gemeinsam die Weiten des Alls...

Hi there I'm working on a short story placed on an interstellar ship. But I need you guys to help me with the math and authentic technology involved. The story is taking place in the 22th century. I'm talking of an interstellar colony ship carrying 10'000 colonists in cryo-sleep and a crew of...

Mit Martins Einverständnis durfte ich Ende letzten Jahres für das FS-Magazin einen Artikel über Orbiter verfassen. Dieser wurde nun in der aktuellen Ausgabe veröffentlicht. Dies ergab sich nach einem Besuch des Chefredaktors am Flightsimweekend 2011 in Hergiswil (Schweiz), an welchem ich...

I'm participating at the Flightsim Weekend 2011, here in Switzerland. It's a small meeting of Flight-Sim interessted people, but as far as I know, I'm the only one with a Space-Flight-Sim. Maybe I can draw a bit of interest in orbiter there. So I'm trying to prepare an Orbiter Installation (or...

I was searching on orbithangar if there's a MFD that allows simple calculations, like the built in of the DG-IV, but I didn't found anything. Does somebody know, if there is a simple calculator MFD somewhere, which allows basic arithmetics? I don't have one lying around here, I can't use the...

There I was making this mod for Half-Life, when I discovered, I need a custom environmental map, also called skybox, for a space related map. First I was trying with photoshop and other image editing tools to merge some pictures of earth and sun together, and wasn't satisfied with the result. I...

He there I recently got up with the idea, of writing some adventures which originated in orbiter to paper. It startet as a small project, and now is going bigger an bigger. But I actually don't have any experience in writing - even reading - science fiction. I heard here on the forums are a lot...

Recently, I was in orbit around Venus, and watched many sunrises and sunsets. But I wondered about the color of the sun, respectively of the dawn and the color of the light thrown at my ship. It was redish like on earth, but earth's atmosphere is blue, and so on absorbs the shorter wavelenghts...

Hi there I'm new to the forum, but I'm flying (or do we say "falling") orbiter since many years. As I get to know orbiter, I was impressed by the possibility of traveling throughout the entire solarsystem in a realistic manner. So I get familiar with the physics needed for space travel, and...
