DeltaGliderIII is a light space vessel capable of long-distance flights. It features highly realistic and fully functional cockpit instruments, which include not only flight instruments but also controls for the life support system, electric system, fuel system. DeltaGliderIII contains a live crew who can die if the cabin pressure, temperature or CO2 levels are unacceptable. Unlike most vessels in Orbiter, DeltaGliderIII can develop faults in response to overloads such as extreme G-force or reentry temperature, which limit vessel's functionality. The crew of DeltaGliderIII is able to perform Extra-Vehicular Activity: they can go into open space inside a space suit with primitive engines and instruments. (More...)
