| Rendezvous MFD 050621 |
|
File Description:
Rendezvous MFD allows you to perform a precise approach to rendezvous with minimum fuel usage. With one burn, you can end up right at the center of the target after travelling tens of kilometers (in Earth orbit at least).
It uses Hill's equations (also known as Clohessy-Wiltshire equations) to generate a desired approach profile based only on the interceptor's present position and a desired time-to-intercept. Varying the time to intercept allows you to
choose a variety of arrival directions including RBar and VBar (assuming they are practical from the interceptor's position).
The MFD includes an auto-burn feature. It has been renamed from the early-beta release, when it was called Approach MFD. REQUIRES ORBITER 2005! Be sure to read the installation instructions!

| GSPIN Rotating Space Station |
|
File Description:
The station consists of a habitat (9 ton) at the end of a 50 m wire, and a centre service module (6 ton) with a docking port, solar panels and a heat radiator. These two elements are connected by an inflated tunnel.
The assembly was launched on a Delta 4 Heavy. The burnt-out upper stage is the counter weight (6 ton) at the end of 75 m long wires.
The rotational speed is 2.5 rpm, resulting in a artificial gravity of 3.4 m/s², about 1/3 of earth gravity. This rotation is well within the 'convenience limit' of about 3 rpm. The effects of preventing bone degradation of the astronauts on long space travels shall be studied aboard this station.
A spacecraft with a centre-line docking port (like the Delta Glider or the CEV) is required for docking.

| Beautiful Tranquillity Music |

File Description:
Wonderful ambient music for you Orbiter installation. The tracks are each between 3 and 5 minutes long, so therefore the downloads are rather big (3 - 5 Mb). Though I hope the music itself will compensate for this! :-) Requires Dan's OrbiterSound. Unzip into your ".../Orbiter/Sound/mp3" folder.
