The Endurance Space Exploration System models the spacecraft and planetary systems conceived by Nathan Crowley for Christopher Nolan’s 2014 film
Interstellar. The Endurance, its associated Cargo Pods, the Lander, and Ranger are UMmu, UCGO, and D3D9 compliant.

Required Programs

Orbiter 2010 P1
LC39-EAFB 2006.3 Hi-Res
Hi-Res Kennedy Space Center
Interstellar system 
Multistage2015
Runway Markers for Orbiter 2010
Orbiter Sound 3.5 or later
Pluto and Moons
UMmu 2.0 or later
UCGO

Please take time to review the manual for pertinent installation and operating instructions.

Note: This add-on is offered for Orbiter 100830 P1. While it will run in Orbiter 160828, some 
features will not be rendered and some scenarios will cause a CTD. An Orbiter 160828 version is planned.

For those interested, I'm attaching a revised Ranger at Miller scenario. Copy this to Scenarios/Endurance Space Exploration System/4. Gargantua-Pantagruel system to overwrite the file there. In this revision, the Ranger's orbit has a lower periapsis and apoapsis. Over time, this establishes a more stable orbit of Miller.

I don’t know if,we,can. You’re pressing ESC. I think that command is a default of either the Orbiter program or UMMu.

What are trying to do when you press the Escape key

Yes it can be changed:
Code:
else if (key == OAPI_KEY_ESCAPE&&!KEYMOD_SHIFT(kstate) && !KEYMOD_CONTROL(kstate))
	{

I can change it to CONTROL and Escape Eject the guys

Any change from "escape" would be appreciated in general. The problem occurs (for me) when one opens an input dialogue box and wishes to close it without entering anything.
I've lost count of how many times I shot Bowman out the window accidentally!
BTW magnificent work on this mammoth project; I'm always impressed how you guys get some eyecandy fantasy images from a fictional film to somehow actually function! Certainly not easy- do wish filmmakers would make their designs more plausible/ functional, would make the conversion to Orbiter easier and (for me) more enjoyable. If you ever get round to updating Wo2001 it would be a dream come true!

kash01,
Since neither the Lander or Ranger have control surfaces we saw the need to augment the RCS to increase their output and added an atmospheric setting for the RCS. Have you followed the ship’s approach cues (page 64 of the manual)? With ATM selected, the Ranger is quite maneuverable. The Lander is more like a cargo barge so with ATM selected the approach roll from inverted is slow but other atmospheric flight maneuvers can be flown well enough to fly controlled approaches guided by AeroBrake MFD and Land MFD.

Yes, ` is the key command to switch from orbital to atmospheric RCS settings.

Curious. We set the same key command in the Lander and Ranger to toggle from orbital to atmospheric RCS settings. Pressing that command should change the console ATM annunciator from white to green indicating atmospheric RCS settings are active.
