'''Orbiter''' is a freeware space flight simulator written by Martin Schweiger, Ph. D.,  of the Department of Medical Physics and Bioengineering at University College London.
 
  
The current version is [[Orbiter 2006 Patch 1]].

==Structure==
+
FUCK YOU URWUMPE
Orbiter consists of a mix of [[Configuration File|configuration files]], [[Compiled HTML File|help files]], [[Mesh|meshes]], [[Texture|textures]] and [[Orbiter Module|modules]] which get integrated by the main executable ''Orbiter.exe''. This very flexible architecture makes it possible to easily modify orbiter and extend its capabilities.

==System Requirements==
+
FUCK YOU URWUMPE
The standard ORBITER distribution requires the following minimum hardware features:
 
*  600 MHz PC or better (Pentium, Athlon, etc.)
 
*  256 MB RAM or more
 
*  Windows 95/98/Me/2000/XP
 
*  DirectX 7.0 or higher
 
*  DirectX compatible 3D graphics accelerator card with at least 16MB of video RAM (32MB or more recommended) and DXT texture compression support
 
*  Approximately 100MB of free disk space for the minimum installation (additional high resolution textures and addons will require more space).
 
*  DirectX compatible joystick (optional)
 
Installing high-resolution texture packs or addons may have an impact on performance and could require significantly higher computing specs.

==The default solar system==
+
FUCK YOU URWUMPE
  
The default solar system includes all known planets (except the [[Dwarf Planet|dwarf planets]]) and the major moons. Most planets are equipped with a [[Ephemeris|ephemeris]] module, which calculate the position of the celestial bodies at a very high accuracy, making it possible to simulate historic space missions by using nearly the same maneuvers as in reality.

Spread over the inner solar system are some spaceports, which allow players to refuel their spacecrafts:
+

* [[Kennedy Space Center]]
 
* [[Habana (spaceport)|Habana]] close to Habana, Cuba
 
* [[Brighton Beach]] on [[Moon]]
 
* [[Olympus]] on [[Mars]]

==The included spacecrafts==

* [[Dragonfly]]

* [[Luna Wheel Station]]
 
* [[Delta-glider]]
 
* [[Shuttle-A]]
 
* [[Space Shuttle Atlantis]]
 
* [[Shuttle PB]]
 
* [[Hubble Space Telescope]]
 
* [[Long Duration Exposition Facility]]
 
* [[Carina]]
 
* [[Internation Space Station]]
 
* [[Mir]]
 
  
Mir got placed into an alternative orbit (and was not deorbited) making it a possible start for interplanetary missions.
