Cessna 140

File Description:
Just a simple Cessna 140 Aircraft to buzz around in. There is no animation, no fancy bells and whistles. Just a simple aircraft I made while learning how to create air and spacecraft for Orbiter. WARNING: It is against Federal Law and FAA Regulations to fly private aircraft within Kennedy Space Center airspace. It is punishable by a fine of no less than $10,000 and a prison term no less than 5 years. Have fun!

Orbiter Scenery / Video Developers Kit

File Description:
Some generic trees, a palm tree, and bush for Orbiter. Used primarily for Orbiter video creators to create establishing shots, although you can really dress up your base with trees if your system is fast enough. You will need to edit the config file for the base you wish to add these trees and bushes to. No example is added, however. This addon is primarily for advanced Orbiter users with a knowledge of editing the base config files. This addon was created to give the Orbiter video makers a few props to use in their videos, although you are free to use these tree/bush meshes in your base addons if you desire. All thats required is a small credit for the trees/bush meshes in the docs.

Mercury Level 8 Hi-Res Texture

File Description:
This is a Level 8 hi-resolution surface texture for the planet Mercury. Thanks goes to John Van Vliet of Celestia for the 8192x4096 surface map of Mercury used to make this texture. John's website info can be found in the enclosed readme file. John's map uses data from the far side of the moon to fill in the gaps in the original Mariner 10 imagery as only about 48% of the surface was mapped. I used PSP to give the map a slightly coppery color. Overall a very aesthetically appealing texture. A full-color MFD map is also included. Enjoy. Please, read the enclosed readme file first for installation instructions.

Vanguard 1 Add-on for Orbiter

File Description:
Originally a simple nose cone was to be carried aloft, but in July of 1957 it was decided that a small 1.47 kilogram (3.25 pound) test satellite would be used instead to exercise the tracking stations. This test satellite would consist of a simple 16 centimeter (6.4 inch) polished aluminum alloy sphere equipped with two transmitters operating at frequencies around 108 MHz, 6 small solar panels, and 6 dowel like antennas. The satellite was Vanguard I, in which its successes set the pattern for a multitude of other space ventures in this country and abroad. Vanguard also served as a springboard for scientists to launch several series of space probes to study various aspects of radiation phenomena. Vanguard I introduced much of the technology that has been applied in other U.S. satellite programs. For example, it proved that solar cells could be used for several years to power radio transmitters. Vanguard's solar cells operated for about seven years, while conventional batteries used to power another onboard transmitter lasted only 20 days. Now the oldest man-made satellite still in orbit to this day, Vanguard I has been 100 percent successful in meeting all its scientific objectives. Now you can fly this historical satellite in orbit. Unlike all the US Navy failed attempts, the Orbiter version will always get you there.
