Going for the Michael Bay effect?

Perhaps.

I believe it's the JJ Abrams effect. Micheal Bay is explosions, hot chicks, giant fighting robots, and explosions.

Actually, the lens flare represents the glowing of my soul and the brightness of my personality. This shows a shine from deep in my heart...

Nah, I just like Lens Flare.

 

[PhantomCruiser]

Yeah, I guess JJ does overdo the lens flare more than Bey, it seem some people like that though...
When I go see something either has done at the movies I take along hearing protection no matter what.

Ok, if someone made a move called Explosion, and it had nothing but a slow motion montage of explosions for 2 1/2 hours straight, it would be the best selling movie ever.

Wow! That's awesome, are you planning to use BrianJ's Atlas V and your own adapter for that?

A little R&R at FOI's Malerba before landing at Tranquility with Donamys great Jason Project.

Might not mean much to anyone else, but this is Jupiter, minutes after I arrived at her using TransX, for the first time.

Got to the moon for the first time yesterday as well, so I feel rather proud of myself now :hotcool:

Well done! Jupiter was my first (successful) interplanetary trip. Ahh, sweet memories

It flew 100 times towards orbit (plus another 25 towards space), and delivers satellites into orbit time after time (except for its first few years), yet it never gained any publicity.

From Earth to Venus and Mars

My TransX and IMFD skills are getting better (many thanks to dgatsoulis and Flytandem).

Here is some screen captures from a trip between the Earth, Venus and Mars with a Chapman probe:

Going up to the transfer orbit with the 2nd stage of a Neptune rocket.


Ejection burn completed, separation of Fregat stage and Chapman probe.


Leaving the Earth.


Venus Flyby.


The dark side of Mars.


Back to the Earth 1007 days after leaving.


It's really satisfying for me to see that all went according to what was initially planned... Really worth the time learning of TransX/IMFD and planning of such trips.

Happy orbiting.

Christa has landed

Is the shuttle named in honor of Christa McAuffle? If so, her crew mate Gregory Jarvis (a payload specialist from Hughes Aerospace) was also honored on Orbiter with the Jarvis series of rockets (the basis of which comes from an advanced study and rocket bid from Boeing).
