Surface bases (or “spaceports”) are [[launch]] and [[landing]] sites on the [[surface]] of planets or moons, usually equipped with [[launchpads]] or [[runways]], for vertical and horizontal liftoff and/or landing. Each surface base is defined via its own [[configuration file]]. When Orbiter loads a [[planet configuration]], it scans all surface base definitions for the planet and creates the corresponding bases.

Surface bases (or “spaceports”) are launch and landing sites on the surface of planets or moons, usually equipped with launchpads or runways, for vertical and horizontal liftoff and/or landing. Each surface base is defined via its own configuration file. When Orbiter loads a planet configuration, it scans all surface base definitions for the planet and creates the corresponding bases.
