Come to think of it, I've never seen a screenshot of Pluto. Has anyone even done a mission there (if it's even in Orbiter).

You mean like this?


THIS IS A TRIUMPH... I finally made it to Pluto! (And this was after I fell asleep at the switch and overshot Pluto, and had to plot a new intercept course.)

Unfortunately, one crew member died, and was buried at the landing site. The rest of the crew decided to go exploring the Hadean ice fields...

... while the delta glider undocked from the mother craft to explore Pluto's nearby dusky moon, Charon, almost directly overhead.

@Izack: Now that's a new kind of stealth: Invisibility! :D
Sadly, any enemy could easily bypass that by pressing F3...:facepalm:

@River Carb: Yeah, I was planning on replacing all of the textures (cockpit, bay, gear, etc.) with wireframes. I would never release something like that, though. It would just be for making some cool screenshots. :)

Hmm. how did you get so much of saturns rings to be visible? seems like titan's usually more aligned with the ring plane whenever i go there...

In memory of [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Airlines_Flight_123"]JAL flight 123[/ame], an XR2-J in the Tsurumaru livery of aircraft JA8119.

Unfortunately I may never release this, due to bad warping problems with the stripes. :(

These aren't really ORBITER screenshots, but I thought people might like them anyways. They are just some interesting views of an equation I commonly use for navigational calculations in Orbiter. :tiphat:

Top center is a James Cook, down and right I think is the new(ish) Long Shot?
Quit a nice fleet for long range survey work.
If you want to add one more, the 'Hangar has (or maybe had) the Explorer from Babylon 5, I'd downloaded it, but never played around with it.
Edit-- So, I don't know if the Explorer works with Orbiter '10. She's pretty though...

PhantomCruiser is correct. And the one center right (which has drifted away from the pack a bit) is the Clydesdale.

PhantomCruiser has me curious. I'm going to download the Explorer and see if I can get her up and running in '10 P1.

**EDIT** Successfully launched the Explorer scenario included with the addon. Everything seems to be working. Time for a shakedown flight this evening. Thanks to PhantomCruiser for pointing me to her!

Brightened the image a bit with Paint.NET, as the original was rather dark due to the sun's position.
