Orbiter, Space flight simulator

I didnt want to put this in games. The reason being is because this simulator uses exact physics of space, places you in situations that are extremely real and complicated, and is downright intellectual at times.

Though it is very complicated to understand some of the things if you are a beginner (like me) in astronautics, it is extremely rewarding. The graphics are absolutely amazing, and you fly actual and futuristic space craft. It is a mother to pilot at times and the orbiting and reentery is extremely realistic. It takes a hell of a lot of fuel and patients to escape earth's orbit or any other planet orbit.

Its amazing and it lets you do all the stuff you have wanted to do with exploring. good grief I love this. tell me what you guys think.

Its a relatively small download too. wonderful in my opinion. :)

Woo! I saw this a long time ago, but was discouraged by the many downloads. Thanks for reminding me, and giving me the link, since I had lost it as well. :)

It's pretty neat, but all I seem to be able to do is crash. Or fly into space. Or go through stuff. Oh well. ;)
